Vengeful Idolatry:
Strange, Wonderful
Creations Formed
All night long, they toiled. Their
backs were weary, and their
fingers were blue with the cold.
Their clothes were stained with
work.
And as they worked, their struc
ture grew up through a maze of
supports and structures and
beams, and began to take shape.
Finally, it came into being.
A strange and wonderful thing
it was. Its proportions
warped, its features garbled be
yond the human conception. It
cast a long, muddled shadow in
the strong glare of the spot lights.

These two youngsters represent America's enor
mous postwar generation -the genera tkn that is
caught in the most serious educational crisis in
our entire history. For never before have our
schools been so overcrowded and so understaffed.
Because this is a nation-wide problem, Presi
dent Eisenhower has called for educational con
ferences in every state. These meetings will report
their findings to The White House Conference on
Education, to be held in Washington, November
28 to December 1, 1955.
A 33-member Presidential Committee, repre
senting all areas of American life, is already at
work, planning for the November White House
Conference.
It is hoped that through this conference, bold
and effective solutions will be found to meet the
problem of raain taming the kind of public schools
America needs -for its strength, its prosperity,
and perhaps for its survival.
Here ere six prcbfims The White House Conference en Education will discuss
