THE MIFulA1T DI AN DAILY CALLED SUB-STANDARD: Ohio Educators Seek Amish School Closing Women's Judiciary Cou Changes Lateness Penal (Continued from Page 1 GEORGE RICHARD STORRY .. talks on pre-war Japan Storry Talks On Japanese George Richard Storry of St. Antony's College at Oxford Uni- versity compared the superpatriots of pre-war Japan to a group of "holy rollers" in the devout con- gregation of an orthodox cathedral in his lecture yesterday. Comparing the Japanese popu- lation to a great religious con- gregation "trained in a single ideal," he said the scattered groups of superpatriots were looked on "with distaste" by the clergy. Saigo, one of Japan's national heroes who is depicted by a bronze statue in Tokyo which was over- looked during the destruction fol- lowing World War II, is a "proto- type of the 20th century super- patriot." A teacher of military tactics and a man of action, he was "both a Robin Hood and Davy Crockett rolled into one," Storry said. In the early 19th century several patriotic societies were formed, such as the "Black Dragon" to promote Japan's interests in Man- churia. The superpatriots were largely individualists including criminals, professional trouble- makers and bullies. "The superpatriot group was to a large extent composed of mis- fits of Japanese society," he said. "All of them were incorrigible in- dividualists." cmI Om ; . nr r........ TOM&JERRY in "The Two ousketeers. A battle is currently raging be- tween Ohio school officials and the Amish. a religious sect which is using the Bible as their shield. Primary points of contention are the Amish schools and how long children should go to school. Both state and county officials have inspected some of the Amish schools and claim they are not up to minimum Ohio standards. In Ohio local districts have the re- sponsibility for enforcing state standards. Monday the state board of education asked the state de- partment of education to give as- sistance to local authorities in en- forcing requirements. At Kenton, Ohio, the county board of education has appealed to the common pleas court to close two Amish schools fof allegedly failing to meet minimum stand- ards. An investigation by the school superintendant Frank Blackburn of two Amish schools disclosed that some state-prescribed courses are not being taught and that three of the four teachers have only attended school through the eighth grade.

He said the only thing sought is an injunction against the Amish operating the schools as they now do.

Daily Classifieds + By GILBERT WINER Socrates wanted to bring knowl- edge under one definition but was confronted with the problem of distinguishing between knowing and believing truly, Prof. Roder- ick M. Chisholm of Brown Uni- versity told a University audience Tuesday. The philosopher, lecturing on "Know as a Normative Concept," said there is no easy answer as to what knowing is -- it still remains an elusive concept. Offering an hypothetical situa- tion to illustrate his argument,C Prof. Chisholm said, "Suppose there is a Prof. Fox in the audi- ence whom I know by correspond- ence only. You, the audience, see him but I don't. What is the dif- ference between your knowing and my believing truly that Prof. Fox is there?" Questions Validity Some philosophers argue that knowing isn't a species of believ- ing. Prof. Chisholm questioned the validity of the statement that if we know a species is man, we know that he isn't an animal. In examining "What you (the audience) have in seeing Prof. Fox that I don't," he doubted the value of such statements as these : "Fox falls within the cognizance of the audience," and "the audience has adequate evidence of Fox." Furthermore, phrases like "know that, see that, perceive that, rec- ognize that and remember that" are concepts based on subjective intellectual perception, he pointed out, emphasizing that such cases are difficult to distinguish. Prof. Chisholm remarked that knowing may be a personal dispo- sition. If not, the "grammar of know" might be.instructive. Does "I know" perform a function the phrase "I believe" doesn't? Notes Grammar He noted that this grammar ana- lysis only alludes to complexities of the past and future tenses. There rests a descriptive And per- formative fallacy, the two being incompatible. One philosopher stated that knowledge is "sui generis" and any description of it would only apply to something else. This alterna- tive, frustrating as it may be, is the only serious alternative to any search of knowing,'Prof. Chisholm added. Presenting these arguments, Prof. Chisholm then gave his normative concept of knowing. Viewing concepts of right and duty from an ethical standpoint, he I Positively Must Clos Saturday y U IT'S MAD!I1T'$ MARVELOUSI IK-,Tl AWYI .DIA NO 2-! said that the audience has a prima1 facie right and duty to believe in Prof. Fox. The audience also has this prima facie duty to act upon Fox and to give their word about him Citing grounds of evidence that don't involve concepts of knowl- edge, Prof. Chisholm concluded: "Knowing may be explicated in terms of a moral notion, the prima face right to know."
