SCHOOL LUNCHES ARE
OKAYED BY THE STATE

Dr. Thomas G.. Pullen, state super
intendent of schools, has Governor
O'Conor's authorization for Mary
land to take part in the national
school lunch program.
O'Conor authorized DR.. Pullen to
make arrangements for the states
participation in the program pro
vided that there is no interference by
the federal government in the con-
duct of the state school system"
Under the program, $4,000 an
nually would be granted the state for
school lunches. O'Conor said no state
appropriation was necessary for food
purchases under the lunch program,
as the amount of money spent in
Maryland public-school cafeterias
was sufficient to meet federal re-
quirements on matching basis.

And Smaller Classes

Increases in teachers salaries
establishment of junior colleges and
unit reduction of elementary school
classes were urged before the legis-
lative council last Thursday by Dr.
Thomas G. Pullen. state superinten-
dent Of schools.
These proposals, he said. We're mot
a brain child of the state education
department" but represented the COM
posite suggestions of parents
teachers, and the general public
which gave evidence in his opinion of
desiring an improved school system
and being willing to pay for it."
An unspecified but fairly large
amount of appropriations would be
required to finance the proposed
measure, he said.
The present teacher wage scale,
Dr.. Pullen pointed out. did not at
tract a sufficient number of edu-
Gators to the Maryland public school
system.
The superintendent said the es-
Establishment of junior colleges in GER
tain parts of the state would alleviate
the college entrance log jam which
will prevent between 1000 and 5000
veterans and about 1000 secondary
school graduates of 1916 from enter
ing college this fall.
Reduction of elementary school
class units from 35 to 30 pupils, he
declared, would result in more effec-
tive instruction.

Instead of report cards about six
times a year the teacher should
send for the parents about four

dren in a general way, the experts
believe.
Perhaps the teacher will say the
child's mind-"his tool for learn
ing''-is good, but he is poor with
his hands and ought to be put to

ordination. However. the tone will
be one of the parents and teachers
