TWISTED TEACHING
'Y’HE New Zealand Educational Institute joins issue, with the New Zealand Welfare League on the subject of twisted teaching in a letter published in the “Public Opinion” column of this issue. Not only does the institute claim that such assertions as arc made by the Welfare League should be supported by facts, but goes further, and claims that the article of the Welfare League—“even the very words and phrases of it”— “are the utterances of the president of an unimportant body of teachers calling itself the National Association of Schoolmasters —A body, that like some others, tries to counterbalance its lack of importance by making a great deal of noise.” Having had its authority attacked, it is "unibent upon Welfare League to both prove its case that “subversive and unpatriotic influences” are operative in the schools and universities, not of England, but of New Zealand, and also to disprove that its “authority” is the unimportant but noisy organisation described by the New Zealand Educational Institute.
