Peabody College, Nashville, said
that “service rendered is the best
public relations.” The spejaker
pointed out that "in the United
States every person can be a lead
er, whereas in Europe only-a sel
ect few become leaders.
The Texas School Administra
tion Conference passed unanimous
ly a ' resolution "recommending
that this organization go on record
as favoring the appointment of a
committee, similar to the Gilmer-
Alkln committee, for the purpose,
of making a comparable study of
higher education in Texas.”
