Should lief Our Ouoto According to reporters wl -..e the trip to Debert Camp last week to inspect the amount of salvage there, a lot of badly needed building material should be available to our ex-service men in this Province as well as Nova Scotia. 1t is stated that 6B buildings have come under the hammer and 55 have been demolished com- pletely. From those 55 wooden huts have been salvaged: 1,250,000 feet of lumber, 12 tons of nails, 1,000 windows, 39 bathtubs, 200 basins, 139 radiators, 24,000 feet of piping, plumbing fixtures, electrical supplies and hundreds of ‘other items. The story goes that the inspecting engineer at Debert for the War Assets Corporation esti- mates that the complete demolition iob will take until next April and that about 75 per cent of materials in the buildings would be salvaged. This would give new builders between 7,000,000 ond 8,000,000 feet of lumber, 1,200 doors, 8,000 windows, 15 tons of sorted nails and thous- ands of tans of electrical and plumbing appli- onces. lt is further stated, however, that the greater part of this material is being earmark- ed for Nova Scotia or at least that Nova Sco- tians will have the preference in buying it. What about Prince Edward Island, which is just as much entitled to consideration in this matter as Nova Scotia? We ore both in the some Military District, as we too frequently were re- minded during the war. . Teacher Problem in Old Country ll the teacher shortage problem is a real one in Canada (as undoubtedly it is) how much greater must it be in the Old Country, where manpower resources were taxed more heavily during the war years, and where considerable damage was done in many cases to educational institutions? The British Government is grap- ling with this question, through its Ministry of Education which is the central authority for education in England and Wales. The Educa- tion Act, 1944, makes for-reaching demands upon the supply and training of teachers. lt is estimated that the total establishments of full- time teachers will have to be raised from the pre-war figure of something over 200,000 to a figure approaching 300,000 before the demands of the higher school-leaving age, the County Colleges, and the provision of smaller classes can be adequately met. r’ There are at present two main types of training institutions, namely, Training Colleges, which normally provide a two-year course for students of 18 or over, and Training Depart- ments, provided by universities, which give a one-year course of professional students who have spent the previous three years in obtaining a degree. Before the war there were 70 Training Colleges and 22 Training De- partments catering for 15,700 students. The amount of the annual grant distributed to auth- orities maintaining Training Colleges is to be increased to $400,000. This grant is separate from the Ministry's grants to voluntary Training Colleges. Plans have been worked out for the es- tablishment of o number of "emergency col- leges" giving intensive courses for men and wo- men from the Forces who wish to enter the profession. it is hoped that this will make a big contribution towards the large number of teachers required. The training, which lasts one year, is residential and free. Many thousands of applications for admission to have been received _from ex-service men and wo- men. Comprehensive and important recommend- ations for improving the system of training teachers were made by a committee dealing with the supply, recruitment and training of teach- ers and youth leaders, under the chairmanship of Sir Arnold McNair. Some of the committee's recommendations, which were put_ into effect throughout the country on April 1, 1945, were that all teachers in grant-aided schools should be professionally trained, and that ultimately there should be only one grad: of t.~.acl\nr-»--t!ls qualified teacher. One basic scale of salary now applies to all teachers in primary and second- ary schools, with additions for special qualifica- tions and special responsibilities. lt is worth noting that teachers in AIQllSlI schools are not civil servants; they are neither employed nor paid by the State. They are serv- ants of the local authorities or of the govern- ing bodies of their schools. Head teachers are free, within wide limits, to organize their schools according to their own ideas, and teachers gen- erally are not bound by official instructions as to syllabuses, textbooks or teaching method. On the other hand, the Ministry's yiews and advice ore presented in various ways. Inspectors review and report an the content and value of the edu- cation provided in schools, nnd during their vieits are available as advisers to individual Weochers. Further, the 1944 Act requires the Minister to appoint two central advisory coun- cils, one for England and one for Wales, to ad- vise him on education theory and practice. These councils, which hove now been appointed, may take the initiative in making suggestions and recommendations. These characteristic feat- hrel.‘ frldecltltralizotion, voluntary effort and 1' iof method have combined to mould a *- tem of great r‘ ry. rid aloha lice on advisory council on ' ' which lr or present engaged on o ser- rlee elflegeiriee covering e wile port of the edu- w training for, the colleges. .o.».n.'v.-.n.'.-..-.c.\ i» 4- cational field. In Northern Ireland a White Paper on edu- cationol reconstruction has been published with proposals akin to those now incorporated in the English Act of 1944, though in some particulars they are not quite‘ so far-reaching. As in the case of Scotland, they are put forward as the result of an independent examination of the problem. The Northern Ireland Minister of Education estiamted in December, 1945, that on additional 1,500 teachers at least would be needed as a result of the proposed reforms. r- LDITURIAL NUlLS .-.

Mr. Taylor left by plane last Friday night for Paris on the first leg of his journey. A White House announcement was issued saying that Mr. Truman had directed him to "continue his mission in behalf of peace." The statement said Mr. Taylor's new mission will be "of short duration, not exceed- ing 30 days." ii i I Dr. Roland Bailly who practises medicine at St. Pie, Liberal heart of‘ the county, was un- animously chosen Liberal candidate of Bagot in the forthcoming by-electian for a member of the Quebec Legislature, at an official conven- tion.

As an alternative they are petitioning the Nova Scotia Govern- ment to subsidize hay imported into the Cape Breton area during. the perioid of the scarcity. i I Viscount Bennett is still to the fore in his advocacy of imperial preference, and tendered sound advice to British producers and "manu- facturers on how to handle their export trade to the best advantage. His warning is that if the British exporters could not efficiently and suf- ficiently supply Commonwealth markets the dominions themselves would build up a mar- ket otherwise. ln this connection if is in- teresting to note that Edinburgh Scotsmon_ an- announces that the Scotch whiskey monopoly is in jeopardy, as a combination of Canadian and U. S. distillers has been formed to develop the Scotch whiskey trade, both import and export. a i w a Cardinal Wolsey, Churchman and States- man, died this date 1530; was chaplain to Henry Vll, and almoner to Henry Vlll; made Arch- bishop of York in 1514 and Chief Statesman of England; became Cardinal in 1515 when he was appointed Lord Chancellor; worked for a treaty with France, but was unable to prevent the_ war that followed, though responsible for the ad- vantageous treaty that followed; showed zeal for reform and learning by his foundation of Car- dinal (now Christ Church) College, Oxford, and of a college in Ipswich; unable to assist Henry in divorcing Catherine of Arogon, he fell from royal favour, was deprived of his chancellor- ship, ond forced to retire to his diocese of York; later, being summoned to London on a charge of high treason, he died on his way at Leicester Abbey. His last words, paraphrased by Shake- speore, were: Had l but served my God with half the zeal l served my King, He would not, in mine age, Haveleft me naked to mine enemies.- The main note struck at the gathering Sat- urday of representative Progressive Conservatives of the Quebec district was that all the signs pointed to o rebirth of the party. Specially en- thusiastic was the crowd, estimated at more than 400 gathered in the ballroom of the Chateau Frontenac for three hours to welcome Ivan Sa- bourin, l(.C., chief of the party in the Province, with the work which Mr. Sobourin is doing. There was expression of confidence in the suc- cessful fruition of the tasks which he has in hand, notably the coming by-election in Rich- elieu-Verchercs. Other speakers than Mr. Sa- bourin were Herve Baribeou, industrialist, Jac- ques do Billy, lawyer, Arthur Penny, of Quebec, and Mayor Gognon of Rimouski. "Everyone knows, even if all will not openly admit it, that things are not going well at Ottawa, and thot there is there a dying administration clinging to power," said Mr. Penny. “lt is a striking fact that the present government is powerless and incopobl: of finding necessary solutions to the grove problems which have rieen in this critical period of rehabilitation."

Advice to landlords- lf you went. l0 safeguard your property, don't, refuse children as tenants; refuse housewives instead. ‘They're the ones who really do the damage. Wilson W. Wyatt, housing chief of the United States Government, stands behind this remarkable finding. His offloe has lust. completed a survey of more than 173,000 public. low-rent dwellings ln that, country; and the survey showed that ln 90 percent of cases, the housewife causes mote damage than the children. Here are the most common abuses discovered: Range burners W01’? 61088641 and cracked; cooking units uncleaned and allowed to rusl. Floors were Improperly wash- ed. nnrl the flnlsh removed by im- proper cleaning, Window sills were damaged by hot dishes and wet bottles. Window shades were brok- en. and lhe fabric torn, by impro- p01‘ operation. Refrigerators were damaged due to negleo and careless defrosting; trays do aged and temperature controls broken Plumb- lng fixtures were damaged by the use of harsh abrasives. Walls were scarred by furniture and grease spots, oll paint was defaced or to. moved through improper cleaning. Doors -were damaged by baby cor- rioses, bicycles and scooters. Of all Pthese abuses, Mr. Wyatt points out only the last-and perhaps pert of the second- could be attributed lo children. The others are ell me fault qr the housewtfe. Precisely how the American (or Canadian) housewife can be cured of her de- structive tendencies, we don't mow, That's one for the landlords to llflllm out.
