Local Teachers Ask
Convention Change

A resolution that the annual state
convention of the State Federation of
Teachers be discontinued, and that
instead, three conventions be held
in the central, southern and norther
part of the state was passed at the
assembly Of the Wayne County
Teachers Institute, held in the high
school auditorium Saturday after
noon. This resolution, as well as
others passed by the assembly are
a forerunner of the constitutional
convention of the state federation
which will be held in Indianapolis.
The thousands of teachers whe con-
vene for the annual convention and
the lack of accommodations for so
many, even in Indianapolis, has made
the convention mpracticable, it is
said. This is considered one of the
most important questions to come be-
fore the constitutional convention.
There are many who advocate the
adjustment of the state meeting and
almost as many who oppose its dis
continuance. w. o. Wissler, superin.
tendent of the Hagerstown schools and
Principal N. c. Heironimus of Garfield
presided at the assembly when the
resolutions were discussed Saturday
Three delegates to the constitution
al convention were elected by the
Wayne county institute. They are SUI
perintendent of county schools, c. O.
Williams, president of the city teach
ers' federation E. E. Rice, and a teach
er of Cambridge City, Miss Eleanor
Newman. Miss Martha Whitacre is
a member of the legislative committee
of the state federation.
