TECHNICAL EDUCATION.
SCHOOL TEACHERS' CONFERENCE
(Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, May 15. The"annual conference of representatives of the New Zealand Technical School teachers' Association opened to-day, Mr R. J, Thompson (president) occupying the chair. Many districts are represented. In his presidential report Mr Thompson said: "If we fail now to pay the premium demanded by a good and general educational system, we shall surely reap a harvest of hate, corruption, confusion and downfall." The annual report stated that there are at present approximately 1/0 members as compared with 73 in 1919. Regret was expressed that little headway appeared to have been made towards the removal of the disabilities in regard to grading under which the technical teachers still laboured. Attention was drawn to the tact that technical school teachers had no representation on the Council of Education. The report was adopted.
