THESE DAYS - BY«-~ GECRGE E. SUKGLSKY THE SHORTAGE OF TEACHERS The teaching profession is run- ning down, although teachers are comparatively well pald for a pro- fessional group. To the monetary payments must be added the short year, the short day and the op- portunities to earn additional pay. These used to be regarded favor- ably until the 40-hour week for in- dustrial workers equalized the ad- vantage of a short day for teach- ers. The steady income and tenure used to be a great advantage for teachers, but with full employment and even wartime employment, in- dustry can provide steady work and seniority is similar to tenure in some respects. Teachers go into higher pay. It is a matter of money. The preparation for school- teachers - has become stiffer; the examinations tougher; and if a teacher really wants to advance, he or she has to take summer work, leading to an M. A. or a Ph. D. It is cheaper to join a union and get a job in a factory. There was a time when the posi- tion of schoolteacher stood in the community as a post of great dig- nity and importance. The school- teacher was among the leaders of men. Public esteem and leader- ship are often compensations in themselves. The leveling of com- munal life has removed these ad- vantages and has left thc teacher in the position of just another government worker, often regarded as a particularly unsatisfactory worker because the school system in many communities is no longer favorably accepted by parents who wonder why their wonderful child- ren come out of the schools such queer creatures. Non-parents won- der at the costs. The number of children going to school is on the increase. Shifts of population influence school costs and activities. For instance, large new building projects throw upon communities new burdens of tax- ation beyond their strength. Thous ands of children are being born to veterans who in from four to six years hence will need in these new areas. Local budgets rarely make provisions long enough in advance not to send the tax rate up to heights that actually endanger home ownership. In some communities, teachers are changed often to avoid tenure, thus preventing that continuity of personality which builds an insti- not want to be tied to a teacher it cannot fire. ! It is expected that by 1957, ele- | mentary school enrollment will reach 29,500,000 and high school | enrollment will be 7,300,000. This| will mean an increase by about 10,000,000 children over a period of | 10 years, and provision must be, made for them, not only in build- | ings but teachers. | The real dilemma for local com. | munities is that money is getting | to be harder to find. The thing| called “welfare” eats up so much | of a municipality’s budget. Even| rural townships find old age relief and similar welfare funds encroach- | ing on school and road money. | Real estate in cities cannot carry‘ much more of a tax load wnhout! raising rents, and whenever l:hz\lzjl is tried, for whatever reason, a| howl goes up on the general as- sumption that thc landlord is a| usurper per se. If parents were happier about the schools, the teachers would, nevertheless, have greater public support for increases. The fact 1si that quite generally parents won- | der what the children learn at| school. The fault is not altogether | the teacher’s; it is as much the| responsibility of the parent.
