SISTERS SALARIES Recalling the remarks of Mr. Large in which it was stated the amount paid to nuns teaching in the Province was 5122.000. Mr. Cul- lrn said. ”He seemed to infer. though he did not state. that they were receiving more than other teachers. I would suggest that the mcmbcrs compare the salaries of the Rorhford Square teachers with those of the other Charlottetown Schools. "in the coiirsc of his speech the member from First Queens quoted from various books and speeches." said Mr. Cullen. "I am not sure that I got the point of these quo- tations but if there was any. it seemed to be that the Protestant people did not have an equal oppor- tunity for education. .that they lets the Catholics." I "I do not agree with Mr. Large lln this conclusion. The fact would 'sccm to support a contrary con- lclusion. A quick glance at the pub- Ilic service of this Province shows 'thnt ni hose receiving over 54.000 in salary. there are about 34 Prot- estant and about seven Catholic. "There has been a lot of careless talking and wooiy thinking regard- ing education. A lot of people say its the Government's duty. I say it is the responsibility and duty of the parents and the Government is responsible only so far as that lauthority is delegated to them." .GENERAL OBSERVATIONS Mr. Cullen said there were two tsignificant facts which stand out in regard to education in Prince iEdward Island. The first, he said. Iwas the scarcity of teachers and Ithe second, the difficulty of trans- Iporting children during the winter I to the consolidated areas. That there was a scarcity of I teachers. Mr. Cullen said was undeniable. "but those who would try to make political capital or blame the Government for the shortage of teachers should bear in mind that although Prince Ed- ward Island is the poorest Prov- ince in Canada the local Govern- ment pays a larger percentage of the tcachcrr salaries than any other Province except Newfound- SAME TROUBLE "if the Honourable member from second Prince (Dr. Dewar) states our salaries are the whole cause of the teacher shortage why is it that the Province of British Columbia which pays the highest salaries in Canada is having the same trouble? I know of a B.A. from St. Dunstan's that taught in British Columbia without any post graduate training in education. Even in British Columbia they can- not get. teachers that are qualified according to their regulations." he said. Continuing his criticism of Dr. I quite lldeeatha I wonder if he db blames the Mt t for the num- ber of Itarrhd . atenograph- ers and twenty oher oceupatioul who are actively engaged in spite of the fact they are married." SALARY REMEDY "So far as I can act." said Mr. Cullen. "the salary remedy in simple. Here we have a Government paying the f highest percentage of salaries in Tanada. if the people want more highly qualified teachers and high- er pay fir them. they can vote the money and pay a higher share of the teache 's salary. He dealt at some length with the problem of transporting children to the central schools. He said there were 24 such areas that had to be served on the island and pointed out that it was an imposs- ibility for the Dept. of Highway: to keep the roads clear at all times. lie thought some plan would have to be evolved either in the WI of building higher and better roads or perhaps the time when children would attend school would have to be changed to another part of the year. PREMIER SUMS UP ; As mover of the motion. Pro-5 mier Matheson had the privilege of speaking the second time. He said nothing could be more inconsist- ent than the 0pposition's amend- ment. Hc was referring to Mr. Rossiter's criticism regarding the appointment of a Royal Commiss- ion to inquire into the situation in regard to School Unit No. I. "Fool me once and that's shame on you. but fool me twice and that's shame on me." said the Premier. The Premier said he did not in- tend to deal with the controversial -” cussions which took place on the motion. "I intend to deal only with the amendment." Referring to the delegation which had appeared before the (iovernnient, Mr. Matheson said the Opposition saw a good oppor- tunity to jump on the band wagon and shout "Royal Commission" along with the others who were asking for it. "I want the House to do the work and not pass the buck along to someone else. We have been fooled by a Royal Commission be-I fore and I am not anxious to have 3 it happen again. Are we as elected I members ready to delegate our! duties to a Royal Commission or do we want to try to solve this matter ourselves." said Premier hiatheson. The Premier thought the com- mittee should not take too long. "A Royal Commission might take years." he observed. SAVILLE SPEAKS G.E. Savllle. Liberal Fifth Kings compared the discussions being made on education to a schooner at sea that did not know what port it had come from or did not know what port it was going to. He thought the Minister of Education by this time must be a very wise man for. as he observed. "never has any person in the last five years taken advice from so many people." Mr. Saville recalled that 50 years ago there were some clever men educated in the Public schools of the Province. . men who were well able to take their place anywhere in the world. Said Mr. Savllle. "I tlilnk we should concentrate more on educating those who are going to remain on the Island rather than on those who leave here. If we don't do something for our youth this place will become nothing more than a blue berry barren." SOURIS MEMBER William Acorn. Liberal First Kings. said he would like to clar- ify a remark made on the pre- vious day by Mr. Large. "He left the suggestion that grades XI and XII are taught in Souris Convent. This I may say. is not correct." Mr. Acorn said that in Souris they had one of the better high schools in Prince Edward Island which he said was I credit to the Had Noteworthy Career lln Nursing Profession lliaa Georgie M. Boulter. R.N.. administrator of the New England Baptist Hospital for the past 10 years. died suddenly there early last Sunday. she was 52. Minister of Education. He reviewed some of the prob tents in the town in so far as edu- cation was concerned noting as he did that grade Xi was first intro- duced in the high school but after two years the arrangement proved to be unsatisfactory. The citizens waited upon Monsignor Murphy to ask him if he would provide grade Xi instruction in the convent. He told of the high school being partially destroyed by fire and once more the problem of school accom- modation came to the fore. This time it was decided to house up to grade eight in the old high school and to build a new one which would take care of grades 9. 10. ll. 12. Once again Monsignor Murphy was approached and he agreed to supply two top notch teachers for grades XI and xii. The teacher in grade XI is one of the sisters with a B.A. degree working to- wards nn education degree and the teacher in grade XII has a B.A. and a B.Ed. degree. The teachers in grades nine and ten are male teachers. Mr. Acorn said the salaries of the two sisters was costing the Town only 8900 - 3450 each. He noted that under the new federal agreement of grants in lieu of taxes on Government property. the Town would receive about 37.000-34.000 of which would go toward paying for the new high school. Taking into account the grant made by the Provincial Gov- ernment and the grants to be re- ceived from the Federal Govern- ment. he said the school would be completely paid for without costing the Town a nickle. Mr. Acorn said the people of Souris were extremely grateful for this assistance received from both the Provincial and Federal Governments. CHARLOTTETOWN MENBER "I commend this government in seeking to name a committee to in- vestigate the educational problems of this province. because. by this means . more people may be given the opportunity to express those views. ' said A.A. Mnclsaac. Liber- al. Fifth Queens. "If this committee can act in an unbiased. unpre- iudiced. open-minded manner. then I say its efforts cannot help but be successful. if. however. bias. prejudice. and bigotry are allowed to enter into the deliberations, then. I suggest it be better not named." "I do not speak in defense of convent schools. I share the opinion that they need no defense. indeed. if the quality of the teaching in these institutions was equalled throughout this province. I venture to say there would be no need for a Royal Commission, or. for that matter. a committee. ”We are not here. nor is this committe being formed. if it is the will of this House to stir up old con- troversies of eighty years ago.- controversies I thought dead-as most of the people are. who lived then. "This matter has been settled. for the most part. in friendly man- ner. by a friendly people. Rather. it will be the duty of this com- mittee to attempt to solve the ex- isting educational problems con- fronting this province today. I sug- gest. that we get on with the job.
