sioner OF Education. When 0ttawa's
pedagogues began hitting the trail
TO patriotic work at Washiniton local
educators and school boards pondered
under the weight thrust upon them
by the depletion of the ranks in their
teaching force. and were worried.

the shortage Is universal and all com

says Thomas w Ballet, dean of the
School of Pedagogy, Of New York
University, In an article In the New

teachers at the present time is point
ed out as a menace to the nation.
Thousands OF trained teachers are
leaving their posts for war service
and for enrolment in industries
paving much higher salaries than
they have received for educational
work.
Standards Being Lowered.
Standards of efficiency in education
are being lowered just at time
when II Is more important than ever
not only that they should be raised,
because as Commissioner Claxton
points out, conditions that will follow
the war will demand higher stand

efficiency and civic equipment than

be had through education.
'One might well say that the sa
fety OF the nation and the welfare OF
the people are involved In the crisis
threatened by the great and growing

Ballet.
Gov. Manning. of South Carolina In
discussing this problem, agrees with
Dean Ballet that the problem should
be solved wherever possible by the
simple process of raising teachers
