STUDENT TEACHERS
PAY OF MARRIED MEN By relecrnon UMtiafin WELLINGTON, July 11 In an interview to-day, the Minister of Education (Hon. P. Fraser) said the Government had recently approved of increasing the total of ordinary and boarding allowances paid to married training college students to £209/15/per annum. Press reports, said the Minister, had in some cases conveyed the impression that this increase had been given with the object of inducing young married men to seek admission to the training colleges. This was not the case. The increase had been given to relieve the position of those married men who were already in the training colleges, and especially those men whose admission to the college was delayed through the closing of the colleges in various districts. No preference whatever would be given to applicants who married. These would be admitted solely on their merits in comparison with those of other applicants.
