Cancellation Commissions

y Most of the legislatures in session
this winter will be asked to pass laws
creating machinery for settling labor
disputes. The people feel keenly the
Reorganization caused by strikes. They
demand some better means for settling
these quarrels fairly and justly without
interruption of production. ~ s5
The majority of the states already
have Cancellation commissions, but they
do not seem to have been Very effective.
One trouble is that they are not usually
called upon for action until labor dis.
pute reaches a point of hostile and in.
famed feeling.
These Cancellation commissions should
be given wide latitude of action. Suf-
ficient salaries should be provided SO
that men of great ability will be per.
suaded to take these jobs which should
never be handed out as a reward for
political favors. These commissions
should not merely attempt to settle dis
putes after they reach the point of an
open break, but should try to remove
causes of friction.A.

were in attendance at this meeting ana
considerable important business came
up.
During the course of the meeting
there was a long. discussion on the roao

ton they have been in years. With
the heavier traffic of auton1obiles ana
trucks they believe that the dirt roads
will not stand up and that it necessar.

SERIOUS PROBLEM
Solution At Moment Is Selec.

Man and Woman In Kentucky Urged
to Get Busy at Ones and Interest
Themselves In School Matters.

Every county In Kentucky was shor

county in Kentucky will be shor
teachers again this season. This is {
serious proposition especially as the
number Of men and women passing
the examinations lately held for teach
er's primary certificates was quite
small. OF course. the new minimum
salary Of $500 per month for rural
teachers will help the situation In the
future; but the best possible solution
Of the problem right ut this moment is
the selection and election Of strong
County Board Of Education at the
November election.
The reader should not think Of this
problem as a strictly Kentucky affair
for II Is nation wide and extremely
serious. DR.. =. p. Claxton, Commits
sioner Of Education Of the United
States. recently asserted before the
National Citizens Conference at
Washington, d. c.:
1.-THE new conditions require that
the schools shall be more efficient and
more effective than they have been
In the past and We are faced with the
danger that they may not be as ef-
fective as In the past. We are con-
frOnted with great shortage OF
teachers, and there seems TO be little
chance of immediate relief. Accord
ing to the most careful estimates that
can be secured, between three hun
dred and four hundred thousand chill
dren were deprived Of schooling this
the result of shortage.
Even more serious is the rapidly
growing number Of sub standard
teachers. More than half the teach
ers Of the nation-35O,O OO-are not
prepared on any reasonable basis for
the work Of teaching, a reasonable
basis being understood TO mean the
minimum standard that progressive
communities have long insisted upon
two years of professional training
beyond the fOuryear high-school
course.

Der of new teachers that Will be re-
quired this fall is 10000. II is more
likely to be 10000. and It may reach
10000 The graduates Of normal
schools this year will be "a per cent
fewer than In 1916; they will total
about 10000 If we add to these the
largest possible number We can con-
celve Of from other understanding
instructions, we shall have at the out
side 10000 prepared teachers to fill
the vacancies. or deficit Of at least

Good County Boards Of Education
have always been needed In each and

are today "a vital and absolute neoes-

: The editor realizes the crisis in edu.
cau NAL matters which Kentucky and
the whole country Is facing. 80 n -Aas
been giving the readers of this paper
series of articles. statements and
cartoons to help put Kentucky on the
educational map. The reader recalls,
Of course. that the last legislature
passed some strong new school laws ;
but with the Multiplicity Of new laws
on the statute books, he or she Is
quite apt 10 have rather hazy idea
Of the law creating the new County
Boards Of Education to be elected
next November. AS the act creating
these County Board Of Education is
too long to be printed in full. the
editor Is giving an outline Of It below.
The new County Board Of Educa-
ton Is to be composed Of Ave men,
berS elected from the county at large
The candidates for this office are Sc
cured by fifty voters signing q petit
ton TO have each name placed on the
ballot. Any number Of candidates
may be placed on this separate ballot
which shall carry no party emblem
or device, save the words school
Ticket" The Ave candidates receiv-
ing the largest number u votes shall
become members of the County Board
of Education.
This County Board of Education Sc
lects county superintendent Of
schools and decides upon the salary
which can not. under the law. be less
than $1,000 year. The board will
also appoint In each school district q
trustee who shall look after the school
property; but shall have no voice In
the County Board.
This same County Board Of Educa.
ton shall fix the rate Of taxation for
school purposes In the county; but
before doing SO shall. with the help
of the county superintendent. make
an itemized and detailed budget of
all school expenses.
This act. also. provides that the
bOully bohIu VI f>uuCdtiOH Shuu up
point at least one attendance officer
whose duties shall be TO compel the
regular attendance of all pupil chill
dren at school as provided by law.
II Is needless for the editor to say
In conclusion that this new law will
do much toward taking the county
schools out Of policies. II the thinking
and patriotic people Of the whole
country will interest themselves In the
selection and election OF a strong
County Board Of Education the prob
lem OF the rural school In the county
will be well on Its way toward solu-
tion. The fact that the editor 10 CIV
ing this space to a discussion Of the
school problem when newsprint Is
