RATIONING OF TEACHERS
PUPILS SUFFER. PRACTICE OPPOSED. (Per Press Association.—Copyright.) NEW PLYMOUTH, This Day. ' The complaint of headmasters of New Plymouth primary schools that the rationing of teachers was having a serious detrimental effect on children was discussed by the Taranaki Education Board. The majority of the board supported the eomplaiht, and decided to seek some other method of employing all teachers in Taranaki. The chairman, Mr G. S. Smith, M.P., said that if the department would allow the board freedom to expend the amount of salaries now paid it could provide full-time employment for all the unemployed teachers in Taranaki, numbering about 80. Althought the present rationed teachers' salaries possibly would be only £6O to £7O a year, they would gain, however, by receiving continuous experience. The department is to be approached on those lines.
