TBULY A DIPDOII- ABLE SITUATION Sir,--The Editor of the Patriot has correctly summed up the present condition oi education in P. Ii. I. when he calls it "A Deplorable Bitu- stion," fro any one who was present at 1m Friday's convention the spw- tacle of some i500 teachers, ‘most of thein working alone in isolated dis- tricts, coming to that meeting with a common fixed determination to put an end to present conditions no mat- ter at what cost to themselves was certainly one that gives striking evi- deuce of how bed the situation really is. These young men sud young wo- men have been laboring in their dis- tricts against overwhelming ‘odds. The matter oi inadequate remuneration has brought 9111188 to s. head but I sincerely believe that if these teach- ers had formed an atmosphere oi in- terast in their work and a desire to do everything possible to further their eflortlb-ln brief, lymblthy and cc- operstion- even ii it did not extend to dnanciel aseisluce-then I feel that they would not have been driven to adopt the present course of ‘iction. It is this Ienersl apathy and in- difference which is really responsible for the present state of aflsirs and one has only to examine the record oi attendance in country schools to realize the extent of that indifference What can a umber do ‘when only 50 per cent or so of the pupils st- tend and this is all too common in rural schools. _ . mt every onus has s rght w an education is e principle recognized the world over. The very fact that the state collects _ from Brown wnerewmi to educate Smith's child- ren is incontestible evidence oi this, and vet mwv parents or children of school age on Prince Edward Island deny or ignore that claim. Keeping children at home to help out on the iarmortodoworkofanysortisa far too common practice in our pro- vince and goes to show how hock- wardwesreinourideesofcitisen- ship.

Sub-section 3 purports in protect the person who is run into onsui- iered injury by a reckless driver by holding the car and its owner liable

and then by a proviso wipes out‘ the whole purpose of the Act to perfect- ion. m this “proviso” s ‘fLicn Note or Chattel mortgage" or a prior flex- ecution" is given precedence over the main provision oiths section.

No law has ever before strained i0 this extreme. A Supreme Court judg- ment which now binds property does not bind or protect chattels/from

Likelwise the holder ‘of s Lien Note

or Chattel mortgage can, as in the case oi all property mortgages, com- pcll the car owner to secure that Note or Mortgage by an insurance policy against damages by accident sufficient to coverhis Lien or‘ Bill of Sole. As the amendment now reads the most ample of machinery is placed in the hands of the reckless driver to secure his car from liability by the process of a. mortgage or lien-faked or real.

I which results from lack of 5131379915‘; tion in the educational field is ‘that: of making all our educational oflic—' lsls political appointees. What a re- flection on our system and on our people that the essential qualifica- tion for an educational office should be o. particularly narrow branch of partissmhip. It would be far better reasonim to say that the very fact that an individual has stuck through thick and thin to either one oi our pollticalfparties constitutes a disqual- ification for an office requiring broad mindedness and vision. Nothing could be more short sighted than [this pol- icy oi appointing or‘ removing In- spectors each time the weather vane oi popular fancy shifts. It is costing. and has cost, this country immeas- urable sums. It takes about three or four years experience to ilt a super- visor for his duties and then along comes an election and he is probably cut ofl in the very flower .oi his use- fulness. I think Icon speak for the Teachers‘ Federation when I say to the Government that the appointing of three more Inspectors under the present political patronage system is of little, ii any, advantage to teach- ers or education. Now, Sir, may I in conclusion say a word about the lab- el "Bolshevism" as. applied to our present stand..lt may be Bolshevistic but it is just as truly BritishiAs one gentleman remarked recently. “It is the British way of securing reforms and progress to take a stand against legalized authority. orpractice." And a search of British history proves this to be the case. Every reform. every lightening of oppreuion, every step in-flae path of progress and en- lightenment has been brought about through rebellion or striking 0r what- ever you wish to call it. Ar other- more we must not forge; st as the IPremh Revolution \ . pos- sible centuries of the l.. ...1.:lous disregard oi the peasantry oi France by the nobility and clergy, and Just es the present attitude of the Bounc- viki in Iwssia is the normal human response co the 1011s period oi inhu- man treatment‘ aflorded them, so the present rebellion of the teachers is the normal result of the years of in-

A fatal omission is in the went oi protection to th- careful and moder- ate driver. There are over 5.000 cars printing in the Prvince. It is safe to say that not one oi these put in a ‘days travel without violating the letter of the speed limit law.
