AN APPEAL TO
BUSINESS MEN

The salary question for teachers is
vitally important They must have a
living wage The financial returns have
been absurdly inadequate but the
country is thoroughly aroused on this
phase Of the question. There Is some
occasion to be on our guard lest the
mere financial aspect of the case be
seriously overproved.
The primary issue concerns the So
cial status Of the teacher. If very
large salaries are the only method by
which the community can show its
high esteem for the teacher, then by
all means let US keep up the salary
agitation. But rNareal teacher viii en-
Ter the profession just because OF
possible financial rewards. \ person
who is out to make money will not
be attracted TO teaching. He ought not
20 be. What the teacher must have is
the sanction of society. He must be
taken seriously. He must be able to
respect himself and to command the
respect of the public
Strong Teachers Should Remain
Business men need to realize that
public mindedness extends TO tbc point
of realizing that the school system
must not be weakened by attracting all
of he stronger men and women away
from the profession. II education
langulshes and a low level Of INTEL
ligence prevails in a community the
general economic situation Will sli-
fer. Intelligent business men, If they
take a long-range view Of demo-
cracy. should encourage our strong
men and women 10 stay in educa-
ton 10 take our best workers GU,
OF laboratories in order that certain
industries may prosper will inevitao-
ly cut Off the supply of trained
skilled. and expert investigators.
Glory in Training New Generation
