Methodists Urged
To Support U. n.
BY The Assoeiotsd Press

CHARLOTTE, N. c.. Feb. s.
Methodists from nine Southeast
ern States today were urged to
make their voices heard in Wash
ington in support of the United
Nations.
Miss Thelma Stevens, execu-
tive secretary of the Woman's
Division of the Methodist Board
of Missions, told the quadrennial
convocation of the Southeastern
jurisdiction:
"The United Nations has not
been able to end the cold war or
break the disarmament deadlock.
This power resides in Washing
ton and Moscow.
But the U. N. Disarmament
Commission is at work. 1t Gre
ated unanimously the atoms
for-peace" plan.
1--WE can make our voices heard
in Washington in support Of the
United Nations and its agen-
cieS. :"
Today the word peace" is in
disrepute because it has become
a propaganda word of the Com
munists, she said.
The convention ends tonight.

strong teacher'S abilities go far-
ther.
Another problem is the much
discussed one of promotions
whether pupils are to be pro-
NOTED almost automatically or
held back if they do not do the
work acceptably.
The number of hold backs" is
still low, DR.. Norris conceded. He
said he would like to start in the
primary grades and if pupil
falls behind see that he has the
benefit of remedial training.
There would be similar remedial
courses at the end of elementary
school.
Considers Reading Clinic.
DR.. Norris fails to find justi-
f1cation for a child reaching a
high level in his school career
but still remaining on a low level
in reading ability He said it is
hoped to start remedial work in
a couple of schools next month.
He said he is thinking of the
establishment of a reading or
educational clinic. especially for
children whose disabilities put
them "just beyond the classroom
level"
DR.. Norris said he is a be-
lever in unit teaching" that
is, the centering of teaching of
various basic subjects around
learning about something which
is counted on to stimulate the
interests of the pupils.
But" he added, "if the child
is weak in arithmetic, reading
or other basic subjects, that has
to be met head on. There GER
tainly are places for drill and
review"
He emphasized the Importance
of using the best of old and of
new methods of teaching. He
said, for instance, the schools
want to bring in aviation edu-
cation to bolster the science,
mathematics and social studies.

MONTGOMERY Accents Discipline of Work in Schools

on the staff. and a school system
pays a price for that" There are,
in all. 1911 classroom teachers
in the county schools.
Training for Teachers.
The school system has set up
an organization to recruit and
train new teachers. Young
people are encouraged to enter
teaching as a profession. The
system is concerned about the
status or recognition accorded
teachers, which affects the sys-
TENS ability to retain teachers.
DR.. Norris said the Montgom-
cry County salary scale COM
pares favorably with the salaries
paid in neighboring commune
ties. But, he pointed out, the
schools must compete with other
lines of work as well as with
other school systems for teach
ers. He said proposed increases
for Federal workers will mean
that the Montgomery schools
will have to study their salary
scale again.
There are about $4,000 pupils
in the county schools. Estimates
put the enrolment in five years
at between $4,000 and $1,000.
This means there will have to be
between 1900 and 2,400 teach
ers. with the schools finding
about 200 teachers a year over
the five-year period.
Advanced Courses Tested.
DR.. Norris had a meeting with
a group of teachers to discuss
what may be done for the "ac-
celerated" student, that is. the
student who can do work beyond
what is expected of the average.
In some high schools, he said,
advanced courses have been de-
veloped for such students.
He is considering the use Of
teaching teams, composed of a
strong" teacher and an assist
ant teacher. It would make the

IS, 900 Spending Ceiling
For School Board Sought
By q stor Siaff Correspondent

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 3.-State
Senator Edward s. Northrop,
Democrat, of Montgomery County
said today he is offering an
amendment in the Maryland
Legislature which would allow
his county school board to make
purchases up to $4,000 without
competitive bidding.
The Senator said he will seek
to amend a bill introduced by
the Baltimore County delegation
to give the school board of that
county the same privilege. State
law now allows county school
boards to make purchases only
up to $1,000 without putting
them out on bids.
Senator Northrop's amend
ment, which he said has the .ap-
proval of his local school board,
would exempt Montgomery as
we'll as Baltimore county from
the 81, 900 ceiling.

not be getting the discipline Of
hard, sustained effort. the disci-
pline of meeting Illustration. Of
meeting failure, of meeting COM
petition, of learning to respect
property rights and the rights
Of others?
Work Is a very unpopular
word in many places and it
would be fine If true learning
could come in a pleasant, easy
fashion. We have reduced work
in many fields to a rather lei
surely. effortless sort of thing.
But true learning will come as
the result of hard. sustained ef-
fort. Isn't that discipline very
necessary thing for American
youth?
The most important question
facing us is that of the teacher
situation" DR.. Norris said. 1--WE
