School Enrolment Gain
Twice As Much As Total
Population Growth

For the second year in a row, re-
ports the u. S. Office of Education,
the number of school-age children
and school enrolment have grown
at twice the rate of total population.
In it's fifth annual fall survey, just
recently distributed, the Office of
Education says that 33,936,OOO pupils
were currently enrolled-23,31 1000
in elementary schools and 10,621, 900
in secondary schools. This is IL mil
lion more than the enrolment a year
ago, or $50 increase, compared
with total population rise of 1.7%6.
The survey estimates that the
schools opened last September with
1,843,O0O pupils in excess of their
normal capacity, a decrease of
5.19o from the previous year, but
adds that there were increases in 18
states and D. G. Classroom shortage,
reduced by 1900, stands at about
140,50O.
An increase of $4,000 new teach
ers raised the nations total to 1,301,-
900, but left an estimated teacher
shortage Of approximately 132,200,
according to the report. The teacher
shortage figure includes $4,000 teach
ers who hold substandard certificates
Gan increase of 500 over the previous
Year, and the number of teachers

Area COPE Conference
To Be Held In Helena

Helena will be the site of a
Wyoming Montana area conference
of the AFL-CIO Committee on Poll
tical Education, state COPE Chair
man James S. TIMBER has an
nounced. The conference will be
held June "a and Is at the Eagles
Hall in conjunction with the Mon
tana State COPE convention and
the annual convention of Montana
State AFL-CIO.
Originally planned for Butte, the
area conference was moved to Hell
ena when it became necessary to
move the State AFL-CIO conven-
ton from Anaconda to Helena be-
cause of lack of housing accomo-
dations in the Smelter City.
1t is anticipated that more than
800 delegates from Wyoming and
Montana will attend the area poll
tical education meeting.

Long-range, continuous industrial
development comes from aggressive
promotion of Montana's advantages,
and from development of it's re-
sources.
However, it is also a reflection of
the ability of our communities to pro-
vide attractive living conditions, and
to enlarge necessary public services
to support larger numbers Of people.
Unfortunately, it has been evident
to many outside observers that there
has been decay and stagnation in
some Montana communities, and an
absence of well-established, forward
looking planning programs in others.
Montana's population is becoming
more urban. Since 1920, there has
been a tremendous decline in the
number of the states residents liv-
ing on farms, and contrasting great

Few among the hundreds of thou
sands of tourists and residents who
have visited the beautiful limestone
building housing the Historical So
ciety know that one pioneers desire
to publish book, and the fact that
boxing was legalized in 1919, con-
tributed to its existence.
The man who wanted to write and
publish book on his adopted state
was young Granville Stuart, and like
all writer's, he saw the need for a
repository of research material. In
cidentally, his book Montana AS 1t
Is'', was published in 1865 and copy
of it is one of the rare treasures in

tions contributed some of the furn-
ishings from a fund which had been
built up from proceeds Of boxing
matches. Thus when the building was
completed and dedicated in 1852, it
became known as the Veterans and
Pioneers Memorial Building.
For the first time since it's incep-
tion at the first legislative assembly
at Bannack in 1864, the Historical
Society reached maturity, with all
its activities and services under one
roof. DR.. X. Ross Toole was director
at the time and with the assistance
of John c. Ewers, now with the
Institution, the formal

Another important report will be
that of Montana AFL-CIO's director
of education and organization, Al
Root, and the progress made in these
two important fields by local unions
since Root was put on full-time fol-
lowing the mandate of the 1858 con-
vention, held in Livingston last June.
AS is always the case, a number
of representative of international
unions, state labor leaders from ada
cent states, Montana state officials,
Montana Farmers Union, and others
have been invited to attend and speak
before the 1859 convention.

er increase in the number of people
living in cities, suburban areas and
small towns.
In 1920, at the height of agricuI-
tural expansion in Montana, about
225,000 people lived on Montana
farms. By 1860, just year away,
there will be only about 10000
just half the former figure. In 1920,
alp er cent of Montana's citizens
were living on farms; this group had
declined to 23 per cent by 1850. Dur
ing the same period, urban population
(cities over $500 people) rose from
81 per cent of the states total to
43 per cent, while the portion living
in suburbs and small towns increased
from % per cent to "a per cent. The
number of farming units, too, has de-

Important issues that will be on
the convention agenda for delegate
consideration include continuing eff
forts to improve unemployment COM
pensation legislation, workmen's COM
pensation, expansion of federal mini
mum wage laws and adoption of SINH
lar legislation on the state level.
One of the highlights of this years
meeting will be the legislative report
of President James S. TIMBER, re-
viewing accomplishments made and
how much of the labor legislation
placed on the Governors desk was
killed via the veto route. Undoubted-
ly the state president will urge in
creasingly vigorous activity on the
political front before and during the
1860 campaign, pointing to the sub
stantial legislative changes made in
the 1858 elections which resulted in
better all-around legislation passing
both Houses than had been the case
for many sessions past.

Less and Less, For
More and More

We put more of our tax money
into education Is and SO years ago
than we do today, according to the
National Education Association. In
1902, education's share of all taxes
was about IL per cent, and in 1882
it was 25 per cent. Yet today, with
the cost of education expected to
double in the next 10 years, only
IL per cent of our taxes go for the

Undoubtedly the near future will

be questioned. Many classrooms are
the same ones used 40 to SO years
ago with heating systems confined
to the old fahioned pot bellied"
stoves.
But when it comes to improving
school conditions there is more to be
considered than just the physical i'm
provements. There is ample room for
improving the curriculum that better
students might be turned out to choose
their life's work.
It's the age old story of students
not realizing when they are in the
process of getting an education that
it is the most important period of
their life.
In past days it was accepted with

the only way this can be possible is
