Critical Teacher
Shortage Is Held
Peril To Future

The whole future of America
may well depend on scientific and
technical progress as we'll as up
on continued increase in living
standards.
Yet we are faced with a pros
pective shortage of manpower to
train people who will be able to
engage in research e technology"
Noel Sergeant secretary of the
National Association of Manufac-
turers, recently told 4 meeting of
the Massachusetts S Secondary
School Principals Association in
Boston.
There is a shortage of teachers
in general, and of agriculture,
social science, mathematics and
physical science teachers in parti-
cular Mr. Sergeant said.
Suggested Remedies
AS remedies winch would help
in this alarming situation he sug-
gested better salary scales for
teachers, better professional treat
ment and recognition, increased
prestige for teachers colleges, and
better cooperation between educa-
ton and industry as to the supply
OF teachers of physical sciences.

The NAM secretary reported
that $1,000 teachers leave the pro-
fession each year, and warned:
For the academic year 1854
55 alone we really need $1,000
new elementary teachers. But only
35,000 prepared to teach in ele-
mentary schools, graduated last
June.
Financial Aid Needed -.
There is now a critical short
age of elementary school teach
ers. There viii be a critical short
age Of high school teachers soon. !"
Business realizes the need for
financial support of our schools
and providing better education for
our young people, Mr.. Sargent
said, and is conscious of the fact
that, to a large extent, this will
mean increased financial support
through taxes or contributions.
He noted that, as long as seven
years ago, the NAM was calling
upon all employers Ito give per-
sonal support to the maintenance
of adequate educational facilities
and the compensation of teachers
on a basis consistent with their
professional stature" and that it
has emphasized this many times
since"

Rapid Rise Reported
In U. 5. Output in
Final 1854 Quarter
BY the Associated Press

The Commerce Department re-
ported yesterday that United
States production swelled rapidly
in the closing quarter of last
year, bringing total output OF
goods and services to 1857 bill
lion for the full year.
This was about 2 per cent less
than the record of approximately
1865 billion reached in 1858. Be-
;cause prices in 1854 were a little
higher than in 1858, the Com
merce Department said, the 2
per cent decline in terms of dol
lars indicated a 8 per cent fall
in actual production of goods
and services.
1858 Was Peace Year.
However, the 1854 national
production level was second best
only to the peak year of 1853.
It was approximately 3 per cent
higher in dollar terms than the
$346 billion gross national prod
uct registered in 1852.
The report said production
rose during last October, Novem-
ber and December to an annual
rate of 1862 billion. This was
SOS billion or about IL per cent
higher than total national pro-
duction in the third quarter of
the year. It was about Sis bill
lion higher than the annual rate
in the fourth quarter of 1853,
when the first stages of the busi-
ness downturn of 1854 drove
production down rapidly.
First Three Quarters.
In the first three quarters
of 1854 total production lowered
virtually without change around
the 1855 billion annual rate
mark.
The $6.5 billion upturn in the
fourth quarter recovered nearly
half the ground lost in the busi-
ness downturn. The high pro-
duction mark was reached with
an annual rate of nearly $370
billion in the second quarter of
1858. and fell off to low of
1855 billion, a total loss of
approximately $14.5 billion.

Stewart 10 Appeal
Death Sentence in
.Honikman Staying
STAR stan Photo.

The f1rst-degree murder con-
viction of Willie Lee Stewart, 80,
colored, will be appealed to the
United States Court of Appeals
for the District of Clumbia.
A formal notice of appeal was
filed yesterday by Attorney
John A. Croghan, who was ap-
pointed by Judge Burnita Shell
ton Matthews of the United
States District Court for the Dis
trict of Columbia to represent
Stewart.
Last Friday, Judge Matthews
sentenced Stewart to be electro
cuted August 10 for the f1rst-de-
gree murder of Harry Honikman,
65-year-old grocer in holdup
March IL, 1858. Stewart had
been convicted of the murder by
a jury on January 13.
Immediately after Stewart was
sentenced, Attorney Foster Wood.
who had been serving as counsel
for the defendant. asked the
courts permission to withdraw
from the case.
MIR. Honikman was killed in
his store at 723 East Capitol
street by the gunman. who then
took $416 from the stores cash
register.
Stewards conviction last month
was his second. He was con-
victed in June. 1858, but that
conviction was set aside by the
United States Court of Appeals
last July. Reversal was on
grounds that Judge Henry A.
Schweinhaut, who presided at
the first trial, had enormously
instructed the jury as to Stew
arts mental condition defense.
