A Little Consolation i lilluitcwr cisc may be said. for or against. the practice of appointing ”pcrniil” tcuclicrs to positions in our schools. it czuinot be said that it is merely one of local or even Cana- dian application. It is done, in fact. in commimitics which might be ex- pcclcti to h;it'c hardly any trouble at all in paying attractive salaries to tcachcrs. in New York city. for ex- amplt-, lt'ilit'il is generally rt-gai'dcd. certainly in Americans. as the rich- est community in the world. At the present time, accorduig to an official rcport. thcrc atc Cl-Ti.tl(ltl teaching positions in New York city schools. Approximately T3011 of thcsc are held by substitute tcacii- ors. most of whom possess qualifi- cations liclow the standards -'cqiiircd of ”i'cgular" tcuchcrs. Tliis fiuiirc covers only substitiitcs who arc en- gaged full time. If the numbcrot day by day replacements be added. it means that. fully one-third of the total tcachint: staff are it hat might be called ttnon-professionals". The worst condition, if that is the right adjective to use. is on the high school level. where 50'? of the posts arc filled by non-professionals. In the vocational schools the condition is not very different. The subjects that taitc the brunt of irregular teaching: are the sciences and math- enialics. In many instances, the re- port says. teachers whose licences entitle them to teach one special subject-English. for instance-arc brought into the mathematics dc- partmcnt as mzikcshifts. although - they may not have much proficiency In that subject. The chief reason for this is that collcgc graduates with special aptitude-s for mathematics are absorbed into industry where starting salaries are better. This. hgwever. does not appear to be the chief factor in the general condition. since New York teachers. especially beginners. are among the most high- ly paid in the world. There is. of course. nothing in this report to ameliorate the teach- er-shortage problem which is both- ering educational officials here and elsewhere. But it may be I little con- solation to know that the problem is not altogether A financial one. A Colossal Task After converting about every other tradition of China to the doc- trinaire purposes of the new political regime. Mao Tse-tung and his col- leagues are reported now to be turn- ing their .attention to the Chinese language-nr. rather. the Chinese ”ianguages". for there are six gen- Qrai language groupings. and each of these is -divided into a number of distinct dialects. It is said that it is not uncommon for people living in one region to be unable to under- Itand a word of what is spoken or written by their fellow-citizens in another region pt-rhaps only a short distance away. There is one ”offi- cial" language. known as Mandarin, but apparently only a small propor- tion of the total population has any familiarity with it. There is no al- 'l'l'l-1.N'lI-t Y.A5IAAIT.(liIiZTl!l5-ti phabot in any of the dialects; writ- p ing is done by means of "character pictures" of which there are 50 or 1) thousand in all. ' The first step in the language re- formation. according to a report from Peiping. will be a reduction of pictures to about 1000 key charac- rs. This will be enough. it is be- eved. for elementary educational purposes.

Judicial Appointments From time to time there has been some mild criticism in this country of the system of appointinfl lawyers to judicial posts. The fact that preferment is often given to one who has rendered distinctiyc service to the political party that happens to be in control of the govcrninclit at the time the vacancy occurs is some- times cited as an inherent iicukness of the method. although in most in- stzuices the man appointed has high it-gal standing. In the United Steite-Q. houctcr, where most judges, other than those of the Federal Supremc l I 1 t'ourt, are elected by popular V010. l thcrc is a growing feeling 'that the i appointive system, under proper l safc-guards. would result in better judicial administration. The Presi- dcnt of the New York City Bar, Mr. Allcn T. Klots, is'a strong advocate of this view. In I recent statement Mr. Klots cited a memorandum by justices of the City tiourt in support of legis- lation increase their salaries. These are Mr. Klots' words: ”They say they must have an increase be- cause it has cost them so much to be elected. because it is going to cost them so much more to get elect- ed to a higher court, and because they are under such heavy obliga- . tions to all manner of organizations and former helpers”. Mr. Klots call- ed this memorandum "a persuasive indictment of the elective system". He ended his argument this way: "If there is one thing vital to sound government it is an independent ju- diciary. bcholding to no man and administering justice without fear or favour. Surely, a system which results in electing men to the bench encumbered with such a. plethora of political obligations is destructive of first principles". Mr. Klots' plan calls for I commission representing the bench. the bar, and the publicto prop;irr- a list of names to the Gov- ernor of the State who would then make appointments in his discretion from that. list. Doubtlcss. there are theoretical weaknesses in any system of ap- pointing judges. But the Canadian system. following the British tradi- lion. seems. on the whole. to have worked well. It is very rarely that it has resulted in nialadininistration of law and justice. The best thing about it is that it leaves the judges free and unencumbered politically, a very important consideration indeed. The fact that distinguished legal prac- titioncrs across the border are be- ginning to see its advantage over the American system is of some signi- ficance and a further argument for its retention.

However ulicn cold. hard cnginecring and ef'UIlLInllf' facts collide with pure ”irishIul thinking" such a reaction is in- cvltable. In all my previous statements concerning the many difficulties entailed in a caiiscwny project I have approached this problem objectively and with the realism any engineer should employ. However it is apparent that the correspondent from St. Peters is one of the many who cannot risr above the purely emotional level and he is completely carried allay by the grandiose and vxa;:i.:ci'utrrl claims put forth by at least snmr of the causeway promoters. Tltr last paragraph of his letter. in which he states in glowing rhetoric that "I causeway would rehabil- itate this dying decadent place" etc. clearly illustrates this point. Let us now analyze Mr. Pratts letter in detail that the readers may judge the merits of the case. (1)-Mr. Pratt first infers that Imust be "biased" against the causeway project because I work on the ship and live in Borden. I believe that in my letter publish- -ed March 23rd and my remarks above that I have shown my pos- ition to be negative with respect to any bias. I might add that -I do not entertain any fears whatsoever concerning my future cmplnymmit should I causeway or tunnel be built Ind I would suffer no severe property loss should Borden be- come I ghost town.

Certainly any cniuneer N-iiniisible for any niajor roiistrtutmu pm- jnct must. take this factor into ac- count-and then add a L.'PIlel'Oul safety factor in his (i9SlL!ll. There is no argument on this point-and that is exactly what. I implied. ttir-Next be have the reference to the effect that Islautlcrs are uscd to delays in transportation. Now I don't think the words "used to" are very apt here. Certainly our gratidfathcrs put up with the ice-boat scrvicc - lnit that doesnli say they liked it. And that is just why the scrvicc had to improve uilli the advance of leclinology. Nmtltcr irnuld Islanders got 'uscd : lni a catisc.u.iy if it were closed in traffic fnr perhaps weeks with 1 ice piled nn its roadway and for recurrent daily periods because of storms or freezing spray. At the present tlmc Islanders are becom- ing increasingly dissatified with the present ferry service - and for very good reason. The capacity of the ships in service is not quite i sufficient to care for the peak auto pondeni still dlsbelleves my cum I . I y . was using 'poctic license" here to tcntion concerning tbias'. then nothing more I could ever correct his erroneous presslon. (2)-Willi respect to the fate of the officers and crew of the ferry service should a causctrar be con- structed I shall make no comment. I! I believe other correspondents intend to express their views on this point in the near future. (Ii)-Next we have Borden be- coming an assembly point for truckers. Well. if an unprotected causeway of the Canso type were ever constructed here. certainly extensive parking lots would be re- im- quired at Borden and Bayfleld. N. i B. for both cars and trucks for use nn the days the causeway would say would l he closed to traffic. Possibly Iii larger hotel would also be requir- ed to cater to so many disgruntled and frustrated travellers would accumulate here. (1)-with respect to I causeway survey I have no argument against Mr. Praiils statement that qualif- ied engineers would conduct such a survey. However. I contend that if they reached their final decis- long without due regard to "local knowledge" of ice and storm con- ditions prevailing here. then I fiuco such In recently occurred It Port aux Basques.

The causeway scems to be the popular cry It the moment. l7l--Nmr we come to thr rcIcI'- rncc made to the loss nf the S.S. ”Cliarlottctown". For the sake of the record this unfortunate event took place off Port Mouton. N.S. over 200 miles from the Gut of Canso - but perhaps Mr. Pratt round out fl rhetorical phrase in extolling the virtues of the Can- so Causeway with respect to the Canso Causeway I understand that. even it has been closed to traffic for short periods due to the spray hazard. Now waves in the narrow waters of the Gut of Canso would only be a harbour chop when com- pared to the seas that would build up here under like conditions. It takes but little imagination to realize what would happen if such an unprotected causeway were ever built here. However Mr. Pratt's mention of the loss of the "Charlottetown" does point to I very important con- clusion with respect to our fcrry service. If, by any misadventure. M-V "Abcgwcit" were ever ser- iously damagcd so as to be out of service for an extended period. or would be in 8 really desperate sit- uation as the remaining ships could only handle I fraction of the traffic demand and economic strangulation would quickly set. in. In other words our transportation ufety factor is close to zero and has been for years. Now I don't believe in trusting to luck too long -- especially in such an important. transportation service as this. Therefore. if after I .survcy I causeway or iupnel is deemed un- feuible on economic grounds, mu construction of I new ship should be urged upon our Federul Government without delay.
