GOVERNMENT EDUCATION PROPOSALS.
GONDEMNED IN WELLINGTON. By Telegraph—Press Association. CHRISTcHURCH, July 20. The Government's education proposals were strongly opposed here. Mr T. W. Adams, Chairman of the Education Board, says they are decidedly a retrograde step. Referring to the increase in the cost of the system, he said that in 1887 in North Canterbury there were 20,000 children on the roil, find in 1907 the number was only 19,000. Yet the cost bed increased enormously. "Mainly," he added, "on account of Hogben's fads, and in a measure because the control has been taken from the adu • cation Boards."
