Byitain and New Zealand by a committee under the chairmanship of E. A. Crosthwaite of Yorkton. Sasic, said other rea- sons for the shortage were the i0\v prestige of the profession. low standards of entrance to most teacher training schools and poor working and living conditions for teachers, particularly in rural areas. For consideration of the gen- eral assembly, the committee of- fered these solutions; l. A floor under teachers‘ salaries with s national sched- ule of salaries. 2. Sabbatical leave and “o change in the present summer school slavery." 3. A year's leave with full pay every 10 years to improve qualifications. 4. Institution of satisfactory and generous pension schemes. The committee added, however. that teachers should be prepared to accept the responsibility of pro- fessional status by increasing academic qualifications and by controlling. through their teacher organizations, entrance to the profession. An allied committee. which had studied the question of Federal aid to education. suggested that a minimum national standard of education be set. Such a standard could be set by Federal grants to the Province_ which would pro- vide Federal support without Fed- eral control. - “Toénfiumfirl on Page s col. 4) Arrest Halifax Pair After Assault 0n Girl HALIFAX.
