JAN. :3. 195? rsorji Reasons For Teaching A survey coi1t'iuclcd among 2230 teachers-in-training in a Western American city revciiicd some inter- estiiig facts conccriiiiig the motives and icasoiis which led to the decision to enter a proiessiuii which. accord- ing to reports. is underpaid. frustrat- ing to sciisilive souls and not too highly i'rgaiidcd in this mechanical age when the liiglicst inaterial re- warrls are ri-servcd for those who are skilled in the manual sciences. Fll'.s'l in importance among the rczisoiis given was ”daiiy exposure to an iiispiratioiial teacher.” In sec- ond and third places were "encour- agement from friends and relatives” and "newspaper accounts of teacher slim;-rages." A goodly number said they were attracted by the oppor- tunity to work among children and looked upon teaching as I chance to make a worthwhile contribution to democratic living. Perhaps the most important dis- closure was that only a relatively small number of the students ap- peared to be dissatisfied with the salaries they were to receive: more than 50'? of them intimated that they preferred teaching to other positions offering greater financial rewards. No hard and fast conclusion can be drawn from I survey which covered only 230 young teachers. But if the revelations are fairly representative of the overall picture, one is justified in assuming that the old concept of teaching as I "call- ing" rather than merely I means of earning I livelihood is not dead. And that is cause for satisfaction and, perhaps, I little rejoicing. There is no doubt whatever that in I great many instances teachers are paid inadequate salaries. The basic reason for this is that people generally-and not only governments--are not suf- ficiently aware of the importance of the profession to the national well- belng. At the same time, it is clear that the best teachers are those who are more interested in the work it- self and in its intangible assets than in its monetary rewards. If some way could be found to isolate these from the mere job-holders and offer them special financial inducements, without. necessarily promoting them, the whole cause of education would undoubtedly be advanced to I notice- able degree. The Happy Ideal Mr. McCullough, Liberal member for Piclou County, has established a l'('('(lNl in the House of Commons by niakiiig the first speech of his 21-year parliamentary career, in view of the fact that he has been l'c-cli'clcd in every general election that has taken place in that time, it can be presumed that he is I popular rcpi'esentativc despite his silent manner in the House: and this ra I he r rlisprovcs the widespread llicory that the successful and most useful politician is the one who feels callcri upon to speak at great length on every subject whether he knows much about it or not. Members of Parliament have I national responsibility as well as the duty to protect the interests of their constituencies. They. therefore. have the right to take part in debates which have to do with national of- fairs, when they believe they have something worthwhile to contribute to the discussion: and when parlia- mentary freedom is endangered by In all-powerful cabinet they have the duty to go to its rescue. It must be admitted, however. that the aver- age backbencher has little influence on overall national policy which. in the main. is decided upon in the in- other proverbs, this one is valid only to a point. Sometimes it happens that the wheel which squeaks on and on without let-up is discarded and replaced by a less noisy one. All things considered, I tongue-tied representative in Parliament is in political danger at home when he is habitually lazy in his extra-parliI- mciitary duties: for it is in his per- sonal contacts with the heads of departments and their deputies that he makes known the problems and the needs of his constituency. Tact, reasonableness and patience. com- bined with I thorough understanding of the area he represents and I general knowledge of the condition of the nation's economy are perhaps his chidf assets. Certainly, they are worth more in every way than I tongue that refuses to be tamed. Of course, it would never do for Ill members of Parliament to emu- late Mr. Mc(?ullough's example and speak only once in 21 years. The happy ideal lies somewhere between his marathon of silence and the con- stant pouring out of the viols of wrath, which not a few parliamen- tarians seem to regard as their bounden duty and service. No Discrimination Now that Ontario has given ap- proval to the principle of National Health insurance it seems likely that some sort of plan will be whipped into shape before the general elec- tion which is expected in June. Ap- parently, it awaits only the acquiesc- ence of two other Provinces. This should not be long in coming, since both Nova Scotis and Newfoundland have given virtual assurance of par- ticipation, and it may be expected that this Province will follow suit. It is hard to see how it can do other- wise, since in any case our people will have to pay their share of the Federal outlay. If reports are true, however. that the Ontario Government is thinking in terms of limited coverage, applic- able only to persons on wages and salaries. another delay in the imple- menting of the plan is almost inevit- Ible. This is not what the Federal Government's original proposal in- tended; nor do we believe that it will meet with the support of the Prov- inces which already have indicated agreement with the universal-cover- Ige ides outlined I year ago. Any national insurance plan which is to be effective and which is to serve the requirements of the public health must Ivoid Iny trace of dis- criminatory application. In one way or another every Canadian will be paying his or her share of the costs. Every Canadian, therefore, is entitl- ed to I share in the benefits. Futher- more, the division of citizens into "ins" and "outs" for purposes of social legislation is I very bad prac- tice to adopt in I democratic society. The German General, Hans Spel- del, called "the charmer", is soon to be given I top NATO post. Well. he will have plenty of opportunities to use his charm to advantage, for NATO is going through I time of depression. I Q I 'i'hose of us who were quite sure that the winters are getting milder will have to revise our thinking. 20 years ago, the nicleiirologists say, no below-zero temperatures were re- corded in the Southern Maritimcs for the first half of January. 0 O O T It has been determined that Can- ada geese fly 33 miles per hour.

BE'l'l'ER THAN G0!-IBBELS . HERE, THEN, is the new kind of propaganda. Nasser seems to have gone one better than Goebbels. But the climax of inven- tivcncss came when the United Nations Police Force began II- sembling in Italy for Ihe advance into Egypt.
