Foreword A philosopher recently said, Civilization is a race between Education and Catastrophe. By this he meant that the forces of evil and the forces for good are in constant struggle for supremacy and that only through education can the forces for good be made to prevail in this eternal struggle. Frequently the question is asked, What factor in our American civilization made the greatest contribution toward winning the war? In my opinion the war was won in the classrooms and laboratories of our American schools and colleges during the past fifty years. Had we not had the education and training and the resultant industrial development and scientific knowledge necessary to design and build the machines of war by which we over-came our enemies, we would have been hopelessly defeated. It must be realized that education is specific — that there is no so-called general education that trains the mind so that it can go forth and apply itself to any job at hand. The mind functions and has ability in the fields for which it has been trained. Training in one field does not train for another except in so far as there be common elements in the two fields. With this in mind our public schools must educate our people to meet their needs and the demands of living that face them today. We must not only be trained to meet the civic and social needs of today but also our needs in the fields of technical and industrial production. We are living in an exceedingly technical and scientific age. The race for supremacy among the nations will be won by the most effectively trained in the fields of science and technology. Not only do we need technical and scientific training for maintenance of our national supremacy but also for the pursuits of peace at home. Individuals are not born with knowledge; they are born only with the capacity to acquire knowledge through training and development. It is the function of Vocational Education through vocational and technical schools specifically to train our people for the specific- vocational and technical demands of our highly complex civilization. International supremacy and success in the pursuits of peace will rest with those nations that give the greatest attention to the education of its people. Therefore, we must educate all of our people to their fullest capacity in every field of human interest and endeavor; develop and conserve our national resources; build our industries and develop our commerce and agriculture; and promote our civic, social and cultural life. Basic to these national ends there must be a comprehensive system of free, public education from kindergarten to college, where all of the people can develop their talents and acquire wisdom and knowledge so that each may make the greatest contribution possible to the common welfare.
