More and more inadequately trained
persons went into the schools as teach
ers. The shortage of teachers ceased to
be a problem. There are now enough, 50
that few schools need remain closed for
lack OF men and women TO conduct
them.
But the teachers who are inadequately
trained are holding the positions. And
many persons who studied to make
teaching their life work are without
positions School boards generally feel
that in all fairness those persons who
accepted positions when there was a
teacher shortage should be retained.
The standard OF training for teachers
thus has been very largely lowered
Throughout he schools in all sections
OF the United States. The reports show.
The correction or this situation may
take several years. according TO Com
missioner Tigert.

FINAL OVERTHROW
 0F REBELS IS NEAR
African Revolution Being Sue Cessfully Put Down

London, March IS (By Associated Press) With all sectors of ths dis affected area in South Africa cleared of rebels except certain portions of the Johannesburg, or central, region of the Rand, the struggle apparently has entered its final phase. Jeppes- town in the east end of Johannes burg, seems to be the principal re- maining center of resistance.
 Artillery. tanks and airships were used in the capture of Fordsburg from the revolutionists yesterday. They had disregarded notices dropped from airships giving them until II o'clock in the morning to surrender but capitulated after seventy five min utes of bombardment. Another note- worthy success was achieved in the East Rand where extensive proprie- tary mines were recovered and 15S revolutionists captured. Their lead CTS however escaped.

RADIO BIG HELP TO FARMERS
articles by Frank George, wireless expert, explaining the principles of radio.
BY FRANK GEORGE
Checked and Approved by Radio Section. |. $. Bureau of Standarls.) )

'netkN ana ApprOVcu Dy RadlC Section. L. s. Bureau of Standards )
 Tn agriculture, more than in an, other industry, radio telephony reach es it's maximum of usefulness to the nation. Not only does it make the iso- lation of the people living on the farms a thing of the past but it brings to the farmer weather crop and market news, the prompt receipt of which plays so important a part ir the production and distribution of crops.
 In producing sections during certain months there is always danger of de struction of crops by frost By radio warnings of impending frost can be flashed instantly to an entire district
 Need of Speed
 The distribution of farm products is controlled largely by the farmer S knowledge of market conditions. If the farmer hasn't prompt market information he cannot know when and where his produce is most need- ed. The result is over-supplied mar kets in one place, and under-sup- piled markets somewhere else. Over supplied markets mean food waste.
 Tn an effort to secure a proper cor relation of supply and demand the department of agriculture has a crop and market reporting service that is regarded as the most efficient report ing system in the world. Market re- porters in the principal producing sections and market centers are in daily touch with marketing activities.
 Broadcasting Plans
 The tablishment of d national system of broadcasting agricultural news is therefore Of vital importance. Radio brings this news to the farmer while it is hot.
 At the present time. the Department of Agriculture with the cooperation of the Postolfice Department and state and local institutions broadcast daily weather, crop and market reports throughout the country by radiotele- graph and radiophone.
 Most of this service is by radio telegraph which requires technical knowledge of radio and codes on the part of tie receiving operator. Thou sands of amateur operators receive these reports and distribute them in their immediate territory.
 Q(The amateurs opportunities in radio will be discussed by Frank George, tomorrow.) ..
