The first OF the series Of articles
which will appear in the Evening

day, ami which are written by W. r.

The preliminary article appeared IN

Since the articles are in a series, un-

Ii is advisable to look up and to read
the Introductory article,
Before answering any of the ques-
tons which appeared in the prelimi-
nary article. allow me TO say that
each and every citizen Of Anne Arun-
del will need to lie familiar with
school statistics, as school plans are
Icing made now for next year, and
the school budget for 1921-1922. as APP
proved by The County superintendent
md the Board OF Education is before
the County Commissioners. This bud
get, TO raise the funds necessary to
operate the school system on the same
level and to pay the teachers the same
salaries as they now get, will require,
| it is estimated, a school tax of ga
cents. The teachers are canvassing
| the county to secure the support of all
citizens of this school budget.
There are SO schools in the county.
Of these, Al are rural, one-room, one
teacher schools. There are IL two
| teacher schools, and 10 three or more
| teacher schools OF the high schools,
there are two, one at Annapolis and
one al Tracey's Landing. in the Eighth
district. There are al white teachers

with less than a high school edu-
cation WHO pass an examination in
certain elementary school sub
jects and secure six weeks pre-
liminary professional training get

plicants with less than a high
school education who pass an ex-
animation in certain elementary
school subjects and secure six
weeks preliminary professional
training receive third degree GER
tificates. When a county can
not secure enough teachers with
regular certificates TO ill all the
schools. they are authorized to
employ, at slightly reduced salar-
les. teachers on temporary or pro-
yisional certificates until enough
regular teachers can he obtained
One teacher in five now en-
ployed has not met the minimum
requirements prescribed by law
for a regular teachers certificate
and is teaching on a provisional
certificate. The teachers on pro-
visional certificates are not lin
tied to any particular county, nor
arc they found only in a few Of
the poorest counties. They are
scattered throughout the State.
One hundred seven of them are in
in Garrett county. Frederick
county has ninety-one, Carroll
county sixty-two, and even Bal
timore county has twenty-four of
them. In the calendar year 1920,
the white elementary schools lost
379 teachers holding regular GER
tificates and SOC teaching on pro-
visional certificates; there came
into the service Alp teachers with
regular certificates, and 392 on
provisional certificates.

THE CRISIS FOR THE PRIMARY
SYSTEM

WIN the repeal OF the direct
primary law by the State OF New
York attention is again directed
TO the widespread antagonism to
the open primary system, which
was hailed few years ago as the
cure for all evils that afflicted the
body polite; and in Maryland as
the one thing needful to do away
entirely with all abuses that had
grown up under the "soapbox'
way OF making nominations.
We are among those who have
not lost faith in the direct pri-
mary. That ii has been run in
the ground" is the fault, not of its
sincere and conscientious oppon-
ents, but Of its over-zealous
friends. From one extreme the
Democratic voters of MARYLAND
went to the other; and now, when
more than ever we need the salu-
tary safeguards and the correct
application Of the principles at the
root Of the direct primary, we are
confronted with a general demand
Tor its abolition and a return to
the old-tlme convention system.
As a matter of fact, both system.
the open and the closed primary
have their good features, but
comparatively few voters who
have taken part in the direct pri.
mary balance the one against the
other.
That IS an astounding revela-
ton that comes from Monteom-
cry county, where both the Rock
vile Sentinel, the organ of the
Lee faction, and the Rockville
Advocate, the organ of the Peter
faction unite in urging the Demo-
cratic party in that once reliable
Democratic county to "get to-
Sether" and name a ticket this
year without going through the
turmoil of the open primary. For
the past few years" they say, "the
most serious danger Of defeat to
the Democratic candidates for
county offices in the general cleo
tons has been the bitterness and
general party confusion resulting
from the hard fought primary
contests between organized fac
tons of the Democratic party.
Fractional welfare within the
Democratic party. with no
more constructive purpose than
the control of the party ma
chinery, has to large extent
occupied the time, energy.
thought, and resources of the
Democratic workers of the
county, which could better be
employed in producing construc-
tive plans affecting the county
government, and in organizing as
a party to fight the Republican
party rather than in organizing
to fight a different element OF
their own party.
I'm addition to disorganizing
the Democratic party in every
precinct of the county and making
united and harmonious party ef-
fort in a general election almost
an impossibility. these primary
contests between the organized
factions weaken each of the Dem
ocratic nominees in the general
election To the extent that his
character. qualifications and party
availability has been attacked in
the heat of the primary contest.
In this way almost all of the Dem |
ocratic nominees are weakened by
organized attack in every precinct
OF the county, and in the majority |
OF precincts where the candidate
has been attacked the candidate
himself is personally relatively lit
tie known and SO the damage is
greater.
