The attendance at the special schools ha£ increased rapidly to large proportions, and for 1907-1908 the total number of pupils enrolled at the ten highest German technical institutions has been 15,720, an increase of nearly 300 over the previous year. The largest (single institution is the Hochschule, at Munich, with 2325 regular pupils. The demand in the industries has not kept pace with the increasing supply^ and a, great number of young men tail to gain the expected places on. the State railways and the Public Works Department of the Government, while the keen competition is fixing a low price on highly-trained service.
