the profession in the past year. 1t
places the number of vacancies in
teaching positions in the public schools
of the United States at $4,000 and the
number Of teachers below standard al
$1,000.
Everywhere teachers who, at great
cost in time and money. have prepared
themselves for the profession as a life
occupation have been forced into 9th
er fields by the need to earn a living
wage. Other thousands who have been
held at their posts by the hope thai
conditions would improve, and by a
sense of patriotic duty, have reached
the limit of personal sacrifice and are
getting ready to forsake the profes-
sion.
Importance of Teachers.
If there were others ready and com
petent to take their places, the school
system would MOI be, as ii now is, in
danger of a breakdown disastrous to
the state and to the nation. But the
teachers are the poorest paid workers
in America today, and in consequence
the profession, fundamentally the most
important of all the professions to-
any people, is no longer attracting
young men and women in anything like
sufficient numbers. 1t must be made
attractive to them.
Competently to train a School teach
er costs between $1,000 and $1,000.
to say nothing of the financially profit
less years spent in study. There are
many teachers in New Jersey who are
now receiving 500 a year, while 9th
ers whose training has cost nothing
are paid as much as So a day, or 81, 500
a year. A school superintendent, with
$4,000 invested in his education during
years devoted to study instead of to
earning, IS receiving $1,000, while su-
perintendents in industrial plants are
in many instances paid five or six
times that amount.
Each year the schools of New Jer-
sey need 1000 new teachers because
of the increase in the number of
schools and because of designations.
Under present conditions the number
of designations is growing alarmingly,
there are nc competent unemployed
teachers seeking positions, and the at
tendance at our New Jersey State Nor
NAL schools has dropped in the past
year from 1000 to 1,400, while states
from which New Jersey has drawn
teachers in the past are refusing to
certify their normal school graduates
who wish to teach in other states.
New Jersey, therefore, faces the i'm
mediate prospect of closing schools or
of drawing into the teaching profes
sion a still larger number of those in
adequately trained ant those without
any special preparation for the work.
Yet to the worth and high efficiency of
our teachers we must look for the
worth and efficiency, for the ideals and
even the patriotic spirit of those who
are to come after Us in this state and
this nation. If our children are to be
taught by incompetent teachers or are
not to be taught at all, the end of
American democracy as we know it is
in sight.

Governor Runyon Warns Against
Peril Menacing 600, 600 Children
Tells People and Local School Authorities That Break.
down of New Jersey Educational System Is
Threatened by Low Salaries Paid Teachers.
By GOVERNOR WILLIAM N. RUNYoN.

A crisis has developed in the pub
lie school situation in New Jersey
concerning which | feel impelled to
war; the people of the state and the
members of local boards of school es-
innate, On whom will fall the problem
of fixing teachers salaries for the
coming year.
Unless the people and the members
of these boards are reused to the grave
peril that is now threatening, the 6OO,-
600 children in u New Jersey schools
today, and perhaps a whole generation
of other children, may be made the vic
tins of q demoralized and broken
down educational system.
The crisis Is rendered acute by the
alarming scarcity of teachers, and that
scarcity is due to the low salaries paid.
To save the situation the teachers of
New Jersey have set out upon a cam
paign to inform the people fully re-
garding school conditions, and the De-
partment of Public instruction is aid
ing them in the gathering and prepar-
ing of data.
"A SOlIiliCI0oDiC lCdldlC VI lhO Pidh
upon which the teachers are working
provides for careful study of the
teachers salary problem in relation to
salaries in other occupations and also
as it affects each school district, as
well as the entire state.
By ascertaining the needs and condi-
lions in all the districts, with a view
to working out a tentative salary
schedule for each one Of them, to be
presented to the local board and to the
voters of each district, the teachers
are planning wisely to prevent harm
full competition for teachers within the
state itself.
Competition Unavoidable.
If local boards act independently of
such a comprehensive plan, some dis
tricts may be left entirely without
competent teachers because Of the
higher salaries offered in other New
Jersey districts. Competition with
other states for the service of teach
ers appears unavoidable.
Already the teacher scarcity has
caused a lowering of educational
standards, and ever the suspension of
classes, in schools throughout the state.
1t has made necessary the hiring of
teachers inadequately trained for the
work. The result, as shown by the
records of the Department of Public
Instruction, is hat at least 5000 chill
dren in New Jersey are being handi-
capped in their preparation for the
competition of later years by made
quate teaching.
Serious as this situation is, it is
only the beginning of what may be-
come the grayest crisis the schools of
New Jersey have ever faced. 1t is a
crisis that is not limited to New Jer-
sey alone; it looms as a menace to
the whole country, to all the public
schools in all the states.
The National Education Association,
which has conducted an investigation
extending into every school district in
the country, estimates that $4,000
teachers, or % per cent. of the total
teaching force, have dropped out of

HIGHER PREMIUM PAID
FOR Drawn THAN BRAIN

When the lowliest able-bodied immigrant from European or Asiahc
shores passes safely through the gates of Ellis Island and becomes
an integral part of the man-power of America, he can, without prepa-
ration r knowledge of one word of English, command a annual
wage which amounts to 1898 more than the average annual salary
paid to the school teachers of New Jersey.
Teachers re the lowest paid workers, a s this table of figures
furnished by employers and employment bureaus in New Jersey shows:

LABORERS 1865
TRANSFERS 144SOO

SCHOOL TEACHERS, average for New Jersey. 80. 1,osS27
Therefore it Is worth per year 1898 more just to follow a gang
boss than to train children; $46473 more to guide a team of horse
than to guide boys and girls into citizenship, $7SS73 more to brighten
windows than to brighten the minds of New jerseys youth, $1,41273
more to build houses than to build characters. The lowest of these
wages-that paid to the lowest type of labor in the economic world,
the "roustabout"ls 1898 more than the average salary for New
Jersey teachers and $4232O more than the lowest salary paid to a
