That
wild
story
you
heard
l?st,
night
keep
it
to
yourself.
It
won't
help
you
to
repeat
it
and
it
might
send
some
soldier
or
sailor
to
his
death.
Don't
gossip,
it's
better
to
be
silent
than
sorry.
Gossip
is
a
bad
habit,
but
it's
a
criminal
hnhir
wlion
that
gossip
may
endanger
the
'lives
of
young
men
who
are
fighting
for
your
country.
Hitler
and
Hirohito
are
pretty
smart.
They
can
put
,a
lot
of
little
innocent
items
together
and
get
a
true
picture
of
what's
happening.
Make
certain
that
you
keep
.quiet
and
don't
supply
the
missing
items
of
information
in
their
picture.

Wars
can
be
lost
when
the

knows
all
about

Keep
that
information
to

It's
bad
manners
to
speak
loudly
in
a
public
place.
It's
vQriminal
negligence
when
speaking
about
things
that
Hitler
wants
to

Don't

Before

stop
and

The
Marsh
Plan
..
.
The
Marsh'
Plan,
.Canadian
counterpart
of
the
much
discussed
Beveridge
Plan
of
Great
Britain,
has
made
its
appearance,
being
placed
before
a
special
committee
of
,the
.House
of
.Commons
at
.Qttawa.
The
committee
is
.charged
.with
studying
the
subject
of
social
security
in
,post-war
.reconstruction.
The
Daily
News
yesterday
brought
its
readers
a
concise
summary
of
the
main
points
of
the
Marsh
Plan.
More
.detailed
information
will
be
available
and
we
would
commend
the
whole
thing
to
study.
People
will
henceforth
be
discussing
the
Marsh
Plan
in
Canada
as
generally
as
are
the
people
of
Britain
the
Beverjdge
Plan.
We
can
assume
that
the
Marsh
.Plan
will
have
wide
.approval
from
those
who
recognize
the
need
after
the
vwar
is
over
of
a
greater
measure
of
social
security
than
we
ever
had
before.
It
is
to
be
expected
that
there
will
be
widespread
opposition
towards
the
plan
in
certain
powerful
quarters.
Every

to
make
a
study
of
the
matter
of
readjustment
of
the
system
of
educational
finance
before
the
next
session
of
the
House.
In
June
we
learned
ln
the
press
that
"bold
and
sweeping
changes
ln
the
financial
spt-up
of
education
in
British
Columbia
are
being
studied
by
the
Hon.
H.
G.
T.
Perry,"
Including
reform
of
the
present
unjust
and
onerous,
taxes
on
real
property,
vigorous
steps'
for
the
relief
of
grossly
underpaid
teaches,
and
remedying
the
disastrous
teacher
shortage,
and
for
administrative
reforms.
All
these
-o-posals
were
"receiving
the
closest
study,
and
suitable
proposals
were
to
be
laid
before
the
Executive
Council
by
the
minister
before
the
next
session.
What
has
been
the
result?
The
government
has
made
a
grant
of
$180,000
to
'
;
Unorganized
..
rural
school
districts
'conditional
tions
to
the
next
session.
The
government
not
being
.willing
to
consider
any
of
these
prp-pqsals,
they
were
laid
before
the
members
of
the
Legislature,
along
with
an
analysis
of
the
present
situation.
-Meanwhile
steps
were
taken
to
have
other
groups
throughout
the
province
make
similar
representations.
And
for
this,
officers
of
the
deferation
have
been
"rebuked"
and
told
to
lake
up
the
matter

If
the
government
Is
embarrassed,
it
is
due
to
a
failure
to
meet
educational
needs
and
not
because
of
any
action
taken
by
the
federation.
Section
93
of

The
ability
of
the
state
to
fi
nance
public
schools
Involves
two
factors:
first,
the
resources
which
it
possesses
as
a
basis
for
the
am-
port
of
public
enterprises
of
which
education
Is
one;
and,
second,
the
size
of
its
educational
task,
load,
or
need
as
indicated
by
the
num
ber
of
children
that
have
to
be
educated.
Of
all
the
provinces
ln
Canada
British
Columbia
is
in
by
far
the
best
position
to
finance
educat'en
with
a
national
Income
per
pupil
of
$3,178,
2.27
times
as
ureat
as
Saskatchewan's,
$1,396.
As
regards
the
number
of
children
of
school
age
per
1.000
adults,
British
Columbia
has
less
than
all
other
provinces,
357
as
compared
with
New
Brunswick's
606.
It
Is
evident
that
of
all
the
prov
inces
British
Columbia
has
the
lightest
educational
load
to
bear.
Yet
ln
terms
of
effort
per
cent
of
total
provincial
and
municipal
expenditures
going
to
education.
British
Columbia
Is
surpassed
by
all
provinces
except
Quebec
and
Saskatchewan,
devoting
18.4
to
education,
as
compared
with
Alberta's
27.2.
What
do
the
teachers
want?
They
want,
first,
a
provincial
salary
scale
that
will
remove
them
from
the
position
of
being
the
lowest
paid
occupation
in
the
province.
Secondly,
as
the
basis
for
the
scale,
a
reorganization
of
educational
finance
on
a
provincial
tjasis.
All
parties
Include
the
latter
in
their
platforms,
all
responsible
public
bodies
support
It.
Mr.
WcNarama,
Selective
Service
director,
attributes
the
present
teacher
shortage
to
inadequate
salaries.
All
over
the
province,
sqhools
are

are
already
receiving
at
least
$900,
so
that
only
$30,-000
of
the
$180,000
grant
goes
to
the
actual
betterment
of
teaching
salaries.
And
this
grant
appMss
only
to
unorganized
school
districts.
The
municipalities
receive
not
a
cent.
Nor
are
provisions
made
for
any
junior
or
senior
high
school
teachers.
Nevertheless,
it
was
a
start,
and
the
federation
exnressed
their
nn-
Ipreciation
pf
it
while
at
the
same
time
suggesting
the
following
very
modest
proposals:
1.
A
higher
scale
for
elementary
teachers
In
unorganized
districts.
2.
A
scale
with
two
increments
for
teachers
of
Junior
and
Senior
High
Schools,
and
for
principal's
of
superior
schools
In
the
unorganized
rural
school
districts.
3.
the
extension
of
these
scales
to
teachers
in
district
municipalities
and
cities.
4.
The
setting
up
of
a
governmental
pr
departmental
committee
to
study
the
whole
question
of
educational
finance
with
a
view
to
making
definite
Tecommenda-
war.
What
the
teachers
want
is
not
a
"hand-out"
but
a
democratic
educational
system
In
B.C.
Thanking
you
for
your
valuable
space,
I
