The public schools, as well, as most private schools and colleges, have suffered severely on account of the war. rican cities had just formed involving large expenditures for education, when the United States red the war, and the plans have been held in abeyance since. Great | construction programs were :poned, and will he resumed with iny difficulties. In New York City several million doll worth of construction was planned for the public schools, and the money has been available thruout t but the government would permit labor and materials to be rted from war work, Just as soon » ban is lifted the construction w publie schools will begin, even 7 terials still are very, high. The isands of children are unable to id school for a full day because k of space, ilar conditions exist in mest arge cities. Surveys show tha® under-constructed public ant is the rule in American The fairly complete plant 4s py exception.

While the teacher of the graded city school instruets a single group™of children approximately equal in age and attainment, the @ural ‘teacher must cover a wide range of subjects vith many groups, adapting himself “score of times each day to the vary- ne levels of growth and attainment, While the city teacher is helped by, expert principals and supervisors, the, rur ‘1 teacher is all but absolutely ‘iso- ated and must supply thru his own cae enthusiasm, and resource- ‘ness many of the elements of good ‘ching that one working in an ‘rban community gains thru contact vice " th his fellows. “And yet the environment of these | all and isolated schools is in many ways the best that could be provided | the education of boys and girls.

They could take these lonely outposts of culture what they should be, strategic centers of national strength and national idealism. “It cannot be a source of pride to our people that the United States gives less attention to tfle training of teachers than does any other great! nation. It cannot be a matter of pride with our pecple that, of all our professional insitutions,. those that have been inrusted with the prepara- ion of eachers for the public schools are the most penuriously supported and the least attracive ambiious youth. “Nor can these normal school with their inadequate support supply more ° than a fraetion of ‘the teachers an-| mua needed for the public schools. | cir, total output each year ii; reély endugh for the needs of the fiban sonunufities, 4eaving the rural Bnd village schools. almost. entirely dependent upon untraineds recruits.
