LET US GET IN LINE

In these trying times through which we 1N passing we feel sun Ill our teachers are determined to do lllﬂf‘ utmost in whatever capacity they may be rolled upon to act.

We believe that. next to our armed forces, in public services teachers play a part second to none, A great statesmen once said, “What you want in the life of a

If our ticniocrzitic institutions are to sur- vive, if the abuses whim have crept into our (ivmocmiic system are t0 be removed and if we are to re- miiiu a. strong and vcrlie nation, irut- itivti, must be iiictilczitcd and ins ti Lil the youth it our coun- , i (‘\.'t‘l',\’ child must. receive an iuittitiuic education. 'l‘iiat is pri- marily the work of our schools It is a titre-ct challenge not only to our teachers and educational leaders, but nL-ti concerns each citizen of our ('i‘lillil',\', Our educational lend- H's must formulate and direct the ..'se to be intight; our teachers diligently strive to carry out . course effectively; and the . wens of our country must be pre- "d to provide good schools ade- '»- equipment, and qualified

.is. lie vulue we place on an article ls represented in the amount we sis willing to pay for that article. No up to date fnrmer would put poor seed in the soil and expect a. pond crop, nor would a carpenter buy cheap tools and expect to do a good job. Now let us look at the value we place on eduation as corn- pnrcd with other places (In dollars anti cents per child) New York S'nte—-$l24.32; United States-MM,- 76: British Columbia (l937)-$1B,38 54.0.86: P.

It. is u recognized principle that in order to have good results in our schools we must have good teach- rrs. In order to induce the best ir-ncliors to remain in the profes- sion they must be offered an ade- quate living wage. This is clearly evident to-dav for many of our good tenchas have already left the profession, and many more. if they so desired, may accept positions at liiuher salaries than they are now receiving. If es many of our teach- ers leave the profession during the ncxt two rs as have left during the past wo years there is grave danger oi‘ a. complete breakdown in our whole educational structure. If that should happen “here are Th9

or; at present, and when they no offered higher wages thm teachers in this province.

Recognizing the vital need of s sound education for the children educationisus all across Canada are attempting to do something about it: In British Columbia the mini- mum salary for elementary teach- ers is $780. Negotiations are under way to have this minimum raised to $840. The average salary oi’ teachers in B. C.. is $1297.; In

v Alberta the minimum is $840; In

Sask., the minimum is $700; The Saskatchewan teachers are looking forward to a raise this year, as the Government promised to spend the record sum of $4,092,008 on educa- tion; In Manitoba the average salary paid teachers is $707 and they also use negotiating for in- creases; Ih Ontario the teachers’ salaries are increasing from year to year; Premier Godboutﬂs Govern- ment ls placing increasing, em- phasis on the needs of education; New Brunswick teachers average rose last year. In the recent elec- tion in Nova Sootia. the premier had this to say in announcing his platform, "I make but one specific promise. We will proceed with u comprehensive plan to provide our young people and old with educa- tional facilities equal to or super- lor to anything on the continent. To stimulate our energies and thinking we propose that s pro- gram covering the next five years be inaugurated to equip us for the world of the future.‘

Our minimum salary is $312, nnd our average salary is $483.

We believe that our citizens rea- lize the utter inadequacy of the present scale of salaries paid our tmchers.

We were very much encouraged by the following statements of our Minister of Education at Lorne Valley as reported in the Oct, 30 1941, issue of the local press. "Teachers will have to be better paid; supplements will have to be increased." "Money should not be considered when it ls a ouestion of education. with these statements of our Minister we heartely concur. We feel that all citizens who are interested in the welfare of their children will do their utmost to sec that his wishes are carried out.

We suggest that citizens hold meetings to discuss this important question, and, if they decide that in order to avert the impending crisis, teuchers should be better paid, they should have their re- commendations sent in to the De- partment of Education as soon as possible.

Let Us get in line with the other

provinces. J. B. MacDonald, Gen. Seo'y. P. E- L. T. I.

Japan has been endeavouring to tempt the United states to accept a Pacific "Munich" which would enable Japan to pi-oceed with her plans for “The Greater Asia. Co- Prosperlty Sphere." This would mean securing: (a) United States’ influence to conclude a peace un- favorable to China; (b) United States recognition of Japan's posi- tion in Indo-China, and of her demands on Siam; (c) United states acquiescence ln Japanese ec- onomic expansion in the East In- dies; and (d) The cessation of American aid to Russia via Vladivostock. The failure of the Konoye government to attain those commitment; from the U. ,5, A, led to its downfall, The Government was succeeded by a cabinet formed under General Elkl T010, who has proclamled a determination to win the war in China, and to co-oper- ale with the Axis. In step with this march of events, the commanders m-chicf of the British, Dutch and American forces in the Far East have held a series of conferences in Manila. This step ~was taken to make clear policies and actions on the part of each, in the cases of active agression orn the part of Japan.

Since the Manila conference the Toyo government has resumed negotiations with the Roosevelt Government in the hope to break by diplomacy the im- passe betwewen Japan and the Western Powers. The Japan- ese Ambassador, Admiral Nomurl has failed to move the hard-boiled American government which holds fast. to its position; that Japan can have access to the raw materials controlled by the British, Dutch, and Americans, plus credit to buy then, provided she quits the Axis. ﬂekotlntes a peace leaving China's soverelgnlty and territory intact, and agree to respect the Open Door principle.

FAR EAST

states will not bring pressure n China. to settle the Manchurian and other Sine-Japanese question to suit Japan

As the Normura-Hull talks failed. the Japanese government sent Saburo Kurusu to Washington as a special Ambassador to assist Normurs, This special mission has failed to remove the impasse. On Dec_ 3 the President addressed a direct question to the Japanese Government demanding en explan- ation of the concentration of Jap- anese air, land, and sea forces in French Ludo-China forces that far exceed the number agreed to in the original treaty with the Vichy Government. Mr_ Roosevelt ad- dressed hls inquiries to the Japan- ese Government through Admiral Kichisaburo Normua, the Japanese Ambassador, and Saburo Kurusu Japan's special envoy; It was taken for granted that negotiations would cease until answer to inquiry has been received. The whole episode was generally considered the equi- valent of an bffort to detennlzie the extent of Tokyo's good faith in conducting negotiations aimed at peace.

The reel obstacle in the way of peace and rapprochement is Jap- anese ambition to establish a great Far Eastern empire by military force. The U. s. A. insists that they renounce this plan. If they do, Great Britain and U. s. A. will help them to find prosperity as a commercial power. so far they re- fused. If they persist in the re- fusal the nations of the world ex- pect the expansion to be carried out by three SUCOGSSivv steps: (1) A drive from Ludo-China. through Yunnan Province to cut the Burma Road; (2) occupation of Thailand (Siam) by negotiation or force; (3) an attack on Rangoon. The possi- biuty of a thrust into slberia is not excluded, but it is doubtful if the Japanese will attmept it unless the Germans bring the Russians to the verge of collapse.

No, the real reason Connie had pulled strings and spared no effort, was because of Jerry Marsh. Jerry was the man she loved. And Jerry was a pilot, stationed at the far northern base, whose work it was to fly bombers across the border, and across the seas for Britain.

"Can't you arrange a transfer here?" Jerry had begged in one of his letters to her. “swell stories for the asking, I'll be on furlough for the holidays and we can be married. Then you can-be close by, working- walting for me." oIt was wit’; weeks ttpnnghristntg;
