MARRIED WOMEN TEACHERS
FIFTY DISMISSALS AT AUCKLAND
“NOT CREATING MORE DISTRESS.”
By Telegraph.—Press Association. Auckland, Last Night.
The cases of 124 married women teachers in its employ were considered by the Auckland Education Board at a special meeting to-night. It was decided that notices of dismissal within three months should be issued to 54, that the cases of 58 should be deferred for further consideration, and that 12 should b« permitted to remain in the service.
“The board’s action has been deemed necessary owing to the present state of unemployment among teachers,” said the chairman. “Many young teachers arc now in distressing circumstances and they require consideration. It has been the board’s endeavour, however, not to relieve distress by creating further distress through harsh measures.”
