them with other cities, the idea be- ing thereafter to enlist all communi- ty forces for the development of the public school system.
 The first questionnaire sent to chambers of commerce and super intendents of schools of all cites with a population of 5000 and more, and which will be followed by four other ouestionnaires makes the fol- lowing inquiries: How much train ing do your teachers have? How we'll do you pay your school em- ployes? What special inducement do you offer the teachers in your schools ?". Later questionnaires will ask, among other things: "How well do you house your school children What is your educational program How adequately do you safeguard the childrens health? How much does education cost your city? How will the rising costs be met? ?"
 The American City bureau here which. with Dr. Strayer, initiated and is carrying out the present plans, announced it's desire ito make the main facts in the present emergency quickly available" for those, cities where school problems are pressing hardest for solution. The question of getting high grade teachers and school employees, he said, has become a more perplexing one than ever be fore. Many men and women, it is said, have stopped going to normal schools and teachers colleges to pre- pare themselves as pedagogues. lis round numbers Secretary Richarlsoi said. there will be 50 per cent fewer graduates from these schools in the United States in 1920 than in 1917.
 "The United States is now actual ly 35,nO0 short of the number of teachers required to fill positions" <" said MT. Richardson. "This shortage exists after about 65,000 make-shift teachers have been employed; in oth- CT words, the real shorta9e of train-
 orienced is fully 100000 The cost of living has increased at least 80 per cent in the past. six
 nd vet teachers have had a salary increase of less than 90 per
