Virginia Urged 10 Study
Effect Of Segregation Ban

The two - Republican candi-
dates for the Fairfax-Falls

House of Delegates today called
on Gov. Battle to appoint a
commission Ito study the pos
sible effects of a Supreme Court
decision which might upset
segregation in Virginia.
The two candidates, Harris T.
Richards and Mrs. Cynthia
Zimmerman, released copies of
an open letter they sent to the
Governor.
I'VE strongly feel )" they
wrote, that a great injustice
can be done to the State and
its people, and perhaps ir-
reparable harm rendered, if the
whole question of adjustment to
a new series of concepts based
on non-segregation is suddenly
placed before an unprepared
legislature.
The two candidates suggested
that the commission contain
representatives Of both races.

Montgomery Teacher Shortage
Seen Critical by School Head

With school opening only
a month away, Montgomery
County officials are feeling the
pinch of a general nationwide
shortage of teachers
The county at present is rs
teachers short of it's needs. This
is based on filling 210 vacancies
created by designations and 1870
new posts needed because of ad-
ditional classroonls and enroll
ment increases.
The shortage was described as
critical at this late date" by DR.
Forbes H. Norris, school super
intendent. School Board Presi-
dent H. Stanley Stine said the
shortage is "the worst we have
ever had"
Insist on Qualifications.
Nevertheless, DR.. Norris said,
the county is continuing to hold
out for qualified teachers. II
necessary, officials have indi-
Gated, schools will open with
some substitute teachers ham
ding classes until the full en-
ployment is reached.
The School Board on Monday
night will consider a new teach
ers' salary schedule submitted by
Brian M. Benson, controller, and
Evening star., 1953-08-13

other staff members, that would
increase the starting pay for
teachers with bachelor degrees
from $2,940 to $500. The pro-
posed schedule also would round
out present salaries to the next
$10G and reduce the steps for
reaching the maximum by one
year.
The schedulee is based on the
School Board cutting 20 teach
ing posts off the 1870 provided in
this years budget.
Not Enough New Teachers.
Although DR.. Norris feels the
county is in an unfavorable posi-
ton in competitor with higher
starting salaries in both Airing
ton an dthe District, he believes
the major factor is the Nation
wide shortage. Schools of edu-
cation, he said, just are not
turning out enough new teachers.
Montgomery County'S total
teacher need is 1.605. This is
based on an anticipated enroll
ment of about $4,000, some 5000
more than entered last Septem-
ber, DR.. Norris said.
The shortage is more pro-
nounced in the elementary
fields. The county needs 81
firSt-grade teachers alone.
