ers' salary problem, the legisla-
ture got off to a busy start this
week with a number of bills re-
lated to other matters being in
troduced.
John Umstead of Orange took
legislative steps yesterday to en-
courage persons to enter the
teaching profession.
Umstead's bill would provide
free tuition to residents of the
State who study in State-support-
ed institutions and agree to teach

= Instead of paying cash for tut
ton, the student would sign a
note and, if she or he enters the
teaching field within five years
after graduation, the note would
be cancelled, but only after teach
ing the time specified.
Should Umstead's bill pass, it
would be a reinstatement of a
law that went out of existence in
1888 during the depression days
when the State and its institu-
tons of higher learning were in
dire need.
Umstead remarked, prior to in
