81 MINER NORMAL sCHOGL

Rural Education: The Rural
Schools of the county have suffered
greatly durisg the past two yeas be-
cause IF teachers shortage and low
& affiliations. The Rural School OF
today presents a unique problem. In
many places it is closed for want OF
teachers, in other places, teachers are
poorly prepared for the important
work.
The Northern Arizona Normal
School is keenly alert to the demands
of isolated communities with one and
two room schools. 1t has established,
for the summer session, special de-
partment of Rural School Educational.
Special instruction and methods,
special curriculums, highly specialize
ed types of teachers are necessary is
the Rural Schools. The manual
training work, the domestic science
courses, the agricultural interests of
the community should be carefully
provided for. The children in the
school need better instruction, larger
opportunities asd qualified teachers.
Mrs. Katherine M. Cook has been
engaged to give courses in Rural
School Education, Rural School Men
agement, and in special methods dur
ng the second term of the summer
session of the Normal. Mrs. Cook is
veil qualified to give this special is
jtruction, having received her Masters
Degree from Columbia University
md serving the greater part of her
life as Rural Education Specialist in
Colorado. Later, she was secured by
the United States Bureau of Educa-
ton as Specialist in rural education
and has assisted in makisg surveys
in a number of the western states and
more recently in Alabama.

ASSURES EQUAL
STATUS FOR WO-
men EMPLOYEES
UNITED Press Service)

WASHINGTON, April 22-Govern-
ment employees in Washington have
been working for years on a salary
basis established shortly after the civ
| il war. When the Committee on Re-
classification of Government Employ
ees finished it's work, it made recon-
mendations which will do much fol
the public service and the welfare of
Government clerks if they are adopt
ed by Congress.
| Hon. Edward Heating, who has long
been looked upon as one of the best
| friends labor has ever had in Congress
expressed himself as well satisfied
with the general result of the work OF
the committee of which he is chair
man.
I'VE should have liked to go further
on the committee" he said, Shut fear
ed if we did that Congress might not
be willing to embody our recommen
dations into law. If they are adopt
ed, discrimination against women en-
ployees will end for all time. This
discliminatios was open and fragrant
prior to the war. Male stenographers
received at least 81 900 while women
stenograph-rs. who might have passed
a better examination, had to be con-
tent with 5000. The demand during
the war put an end to this.
"Our report fixes salaries without
regard to sex. Men and women are
to receive the same pay for the same
work. In fact, the commission has
gone beyond that, and laid it down
as a principle that not only should
they receive the same pay for the
same work but that the value of the
lob should be determined by the skill
character and education required. This
means that what were known as. "wo-
mems jobs" and therefore underpaid,
will be raised to the more lucrative
level of mems jobs which are better
paid because men have been able to
force this through their organization,
1--WE also recommended person
mel advisory committee, that employ
ees may have an opportunity to pre-
sent grievances, and it is stipulated
that women shall be given place on
this committee. There are to be
twelve members, six appointed by the.
President, and six elected by the en-
ployees, and of these six, three are to
be women. They are to represent
three groups, manual workers, cleri.-
cal, technical and scientific workers.
"This is the first fundamental study
ever made of. civil service in this coun-
try. We have made rather drastic |
criticisms of some places where there |
are inadequate fire and sanitary pro-
and we recommend employ
ing visiting nurses, that the sick may |
have proper care, and that frivolous
who get time off on the claim of ill
ness MAXWELL, let US say be discour-
aged in those tactics. We ask for
Ten days sick leave, not to be deduct
ed from the holiday time. Out OF
10000 Government employees in the
at least 10000 are women.
We have not been able to do all we
would like to have to improve con-
]itions, but we have gone a long way,
and the women know it." !

BYLOCAL BANK OFFICIALS g
Believe Prompt Deaton of Credit Initiation Viii Foo Fs,b
Hshment of 6 Per Cent Rate

All other developments and consid
eratlons were completely eclipsed in
local financial circles by the raising OF
the bank rate to O per cent. The eff
feet marketwise was hardly noticeable
except that it was reflected in still fur
ther curtailment of the volume of bust
ness on the stock exchange. In so far
as prices were concerned, it meant
nothing. The majority of the local
stocks were either stationary or moved
within the same familiar narrow cir
cumscribed limits.
The Philadelphia National Bank
warrants furnished the only notewor-
thy exception. with spread of 10
points between 164 and ia. The
higher price, establishing new maxi
mum, was made shortly after the
opening, and was entirely lost in sub =
sequent reaction.
As to the remainder of the local
stocks, it was merely continuation
of the same fractional juggling on a
very limited volume of dealings. 1t
would require wide stretch of i'm
agination to attach much significance in
what was done. There was a fairly
active demand for the Alliance Insur-
ance Co. warrants, which were all
taken at 6. Philadelphia Electric ex-
hibited a notable degree of firmness.
while, on the other hand. fractional
concessions were made by United
Gas Improvement, Philadelphia Rapid
Transit and Lake Superior Corpora :
ton.
The advance in the Federal Reserve
Bank discount, or rediscount charges
was naturally the sole topic of dis
cussion in both banking and market
circles. Most of the officials of the
larger banks and those who had made
close study of the credit situation
generally expressed approval of the
action. in that the opinion was uni
versally expressed it would bring

CURIOUS INDIFFERENCE TO

New York. Jan. 2.-In the parlsnce
of the street. todav's stock market did
the unexpected. Contrary to general ex :
pectations and specuIotive nredictions
the further advance in discount rates
by the Federal Reserve Banks exerted
only a moderately adverse influence,
Even in the highest banking circles
it had been expected that the drastic
action Of the Reserve Bank officials
would bring in a flood of long stock
and cause general liquidation There
were declines ranging from fractions to
over two points in the initial dealings.
but there was no liquidation.
Selling pressure originated and was
confined within the four walls of the
stock exchange, emanating wholly from
the. speculative element on the floor,
