SHORTAGE
OF TEACHERS IN HIGH
SCHOOLS SAYS HINES
(Bv Associated Press)

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 20.-There is
a serious shortage of high school
teachers in Indiana at the opening of
the new school year, according to L. n.
Hines, state superintendent of public
instruction. Superintendent Hines es-
timated today that 200 additional high
school teachers are needed in the
state Indiana has been more FORUM
ate than some of the other states in
regard to the grade school teachers,
the state superintendent says. There
is some shortage in the rural schools
but it is not as serious as in many
other states, Mr.. Hines believes.
Since the opening of the school year
many teachers have signed contracts
and the shortage is not as great as
seemed probable month preceding
the opening of the schools. At that
time it was expected that there would
be at least 700 teachers needed to
complete the faculties in the high
schools.
The increase in teachers salaries
provided by the Indiana general as
sembly at its special session helped in
obtaining recruits to the teaching pro-
fession, according to Mr. Hines.
Mr.. Hines has received a bulletin
from the National Education associa-
ton dealing with the scarcity OF
teachers. Replies received to ques.
tionaires sent out by the officers of
the association have come from all
parts of the country. These reports
show that in places where teachers
salaries have been increased one hun
dred per cent or more, the situation
is nearly always satisfactory. In To-
calities where salaries have been in
! creased fifty per cent or less, the
teacher shortage is commonly greater
than a year ago. Rural communities
are the hardest hit according to the
reports.
The association will continue it's
efforts to obtain passage of the Smith
Towner bill at the next session of
congress. This bill would create a de-
partment of education with a secre-
tary in the presidents cabinet and
provides federal aid of $100,0O0,O00 for
education.
