| favorable for unonized wage earn

salaried classes, especially those en-
gagged in public work, like teachers,
clergymen, firemen, policemen and
postoffice employees"
a. c. Washburn, associate pro-
fessor of English at the United
States Naval Academy, urges bet
ter pay for teachers as a check to
Bolshevism. He uses the situation
al Harvard as a base Of operations:
"Harvard men sending their sons
to Cambridge certainly desire that
their boys shall be given the higher
education by men who are recog-
nized as leaders As the young in
structor at Harvard begins with
$1,000 year, the question arises,
Is such man a leader, or will he
later become leader? He has spent
from four to eight years preparing
himself for his chosen profession.
Each year for a number Of years he
has probably spent from 500 to
$1,000. To attain the degree Of
Bachelor of Arts he must make this
annual expenditure, less the value of

possible scholarships, for at least
three years and probably four years.
Two years more are necessary to be-
come a Master Of Arts, and eight
years IN all to attain the coveted de
gree of Doctor % Philosophy. In
fact, it is almost essential for an
ambitious teacher to have the de-
gree Of Doctor of Philosophy. The
cost Of the instructors higher edu-
cation, therefore, has ranged from
an improbable minimum of So 900 to
a conservative maximum of $4,000,
the average being at least $4,000.
in view of this investment in his
preparation, why should the instruc-
tor at the age, say, of twenty-five,
be satisfied to begin his lifework
at salary of $1,000 a year? One
OF a limited number of reasons must

siderations. There is no other call
ing that requires such constant prac-
tlce of unselfishness as that of teach
ing and training the young.
THE more devoted the teacher
is to his work the less opportunity
he has to give prudent thought to
his own affairs. For that very rea-
son society will best serve itself by
relieving the teachers from private
anxiety. The emergencies of the
war called for great sacrifices, as
exemplified particularly in the
cheerful and noble service rendered
by the 100000 young men who
went into the army and navy.
THE period of reconstruction
following the war is also. one of pub
lie difficulty and danger, and our
teachers Of all grades and classes
have now an exceptional opportu-
nifty for useful service. Most of
them know something Of history,
and are students Of current affairs.
Their calling tends to make them
open-minded, receptive to truth and
dispasslonate in judgment. They
are able to see that industry, thrift,

other large universities will be
forced to make similar increases.
The state universities will be forced
to follow, and finally, through taxa
ton, salaries of teachers in the
public schools will be brought up at
least to a humane standard. Once
and for all, it should be thoroughly
understood that with seriously dis
contented teachers, from Harvard
to the little red schoolhouse on the
hill, we shall have Americanism
poisoned at its source.
''In the American nation today
there are elements, generally alien
elements, of poison called Bolshe-
vism or. the I. W. W, and we hope
that our great democracy can with
stand the evil effects. But it is
doubtful whether American insti-
tutions can withstand the demorali-
zation Of American educators, and.
in consequence, their social dis
content. The whole German nation
between 1870 and the present time
has undergone Hohenzollern
poisoning through its government
controlled professors and teachers,
who taught lies by imperial com
mand. Let this never be forgotten.
Through false education Germany
ran anuck with imperialism,
through dense illiteracy Russia has
suffered the untold woes of Bolshe-
vism. America has fiourished
through the teaching of American
ideals, from the universities to the
great public school system
American teachers stand at the
great divide. Their influence will
extend in one of two directions
toward Americanism or toward
Bolshevism
