PREVALENCE OF DELINQUENCY
Views Of British Educationist (New Zealand Press Association) AUCKLAND, April 28. Juvenile delinquency made more “news” than it once did, but that did not mean that it was any more prevalent, said Sir Ronald Gould, general secretary of the National Union of Teachers of Great Britain, who arrived at Whenuapai for a three weeks’ tour of New Zealand. Sir Ronald Gould said he did not believe that changes in education mehods were responsible for any increase in delinquency in Britain. Britain did, however, face a shortage of teachers. “We would like to be able to train some teachers and send them out to the Commonwealth,” he said, “but that does not seem possible for many years.” He said that exchanges of teachers between the Dominion and England were particularly important politically as well as educationally. Sir Ronald Gould will fly to Christchurch tomorrow. He will attend the seventy-fifth meeting of the New Zealand Educational Institute in Wellington next month.
