PRIVATE INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS.
The Private Industrial Schools Inspection and Industrial Schools Act Amendment Bill, which occupied the attention of the House in Committee-of-the-Whole until an early hour on Saturday morning, evoked considerable discussion — discussion at times heated — and close voting. The question which caused the trouble was whether the State should in future recognise any private or local industrial schools, and this was finally answered in the negative, a small majority of members being favourable to the principle of placing all industrial schools under direct control of the State. The bill originally provided that schools such as the Stoke could not be private industrial schools so long as they were managed by members of an order the head of which was not resident in New Zealand, but private and local industrial schools were to receive recognition and public money under certain stringent conditions of control and inspection. The fate of private industrial schools seems sealed.
