The Council on Education of the Wisconsin Teachers As!!ociation ~ub~Uf the
following statements of policy regarding public education f\lr your co~ideH!tion.
These statementll are based (1) upon the fundamental princl~le that tduet.~~if
a func<tion -of the state. This is expressed in Article X and repeatedly· reaff~rmed
in statutory -p rovisions and by Supreme C<>urt decisions. (EdueatioUfo} l~~~r§lU_P,

the welfare of children is jeopardized.
State Support Of PUblic Schools
The people of the state are co=itted to a policy ot providiUJ fl8f_
schools on both the elementary and secondary level. Since edueati~n- WptJQI
a responsibility of the state, we urge as vigorously as possible state finalleial
support up to 50% of the cost of the public elementary and aecon~ ~Ofltt.
State Support Of Higher Education
We maintain that the state supported instit~ttions of higher edu-cation are a.n
essential part of a system of free education and should receive f!l~l an~ ~!!1J9-Me
support and confidence.
• ·
' '·
Federal Aid For Education
We support the principle of federal aid .to states for e(J.ucll-tionalpnrP:<J:C!Cs.
Priority Of School Taxes
Since education is a first responsibility of the sta.te, WI! urge thl! rll•r;taetment
of \Section 74.15 which will reestablish the priority of school monies in the diatri·
bution of local tax re!Jeipts.
Fiscal Independence
We re-assert our belief in .t he fiscal independence of school boa.rds.
Change In Tax Base
We believe that the baae of taxation for the support of public II'Chools should
be shifte-d from property to a more equitable measure of ability to paJ. We 1;t~­
lieve that inheritance .taxes, which are the accumulationl! of wealth created py
society, -s hould be· held in trust for public education and not dissipated in cur·
rent expenses of government.
'
Better Schools For Rural Children
We believe that the village and the ope~ country should unite for achool
purposes whereve-r feasible, and where not feasible, the area of the ·taxing unit
should be inereased to make possible as fine a system of elementary &11-d second·
ary schools for rural ~hildren a.s are now available in urban areas.
Part-Time And Evening Schools
We are for adequate financial support and the continuous development of the
part-time and evening school system for both juveniles and adults.
Teacher Preparation
'"
We support a four year course beyond high school graduation as a minimum
qualification for teaching on any level in our state.
Teacher's Minimum Salary
We support a legal minimum !Salary base for teachers of not less than $100
per menth.
The Necessary Modem Curriculum
\Ve advocate for the public schools a curriculum adequate to furnish an ~n·
dersta ndincr of the world in which our pupils will}ive. This will include as basic
subjects m~sic, art, physical education, home making, in_dustrial and vocational
educ:ttion, as well as the more widely accepted school subJeCts.
Health Education
We advocate a continuation of health education in the public &ehools to in·
elude such health services as medical examination, !School nurses, clinics, and
nutrition.
Administrative Reorganization
We favor such a reorganization of the county and state systems of education as will result in a more effe0tive administration thereof and better ~ducational opportunities.
.
. .
We stand directly in opposition to national groups which advocat!l fixmg t~e
limit of free public education at the elementary school _level, and ~o leagues and
alliances backed by financial and industrial le.aders which are tryi~g to emasculate the public schoQl program to proteet theu wealth from ~axahon . . We are
unalterably opposed to any movement ~ place t_he burden of this depressiQn upon
the backs of litltle children. ThP recessiOn ~r withdraw.al of state .suppor: for the
edueation of normal -or mentally and physically handicapped c~1l~ren IS an 11-.t·
tempt to evade the social obligation of our commonwealth. We msist that pubhe
t.imit of free public education at the elementary school level, and to leagues and
the development of ' school policie~, the selection of te11.chers, ~nd ena.etm~nt of
educational legislation should be determined s-olely !lpon their eontnbut1on to
the common welfare.

HIGHER STANDARDS
· • It may a1ppear to be quite doubtful to many of the present
'1'eachers College Students, but we believe that to the majority of
them the idea of raising the Standards of Teaching, probably in a-ccordance with the suggestion offered by the Council on Education of
t)J.'e Wisconsin Teachers Association, which appears on this page,
would be decidedly benefactory to this profession, The Collij.cil states,
"We support a four year course beyond high school graduation as a
minimum qualification for teaching on any level in our 's tate:'' This
almost undoubtedly would put the Teaching profession ~p to where
it actually belongs, where it would be rated equally with other profe_ssions in the eyes of the public. There perhaps would remain a
shght tendency for the standard to remain somewhat below that of
other professions in that the training necessary for elementary teach?rs could be completed at •state supported institutions, thereby draw~ng young men and women into the field who are not at all fitted
for the work.
On the whole, the level of the profession would be raised consider~bly. Shifting to _Se-condary and Higher Educational fields, preparatiOn along these hnes would duly equal and in some cases surpass that of other professions. This undoubtedly would rid the field
of its many misfits. Likewise salaries must be raised as suo-"'ested
by the council in accordance with the amount of preparation "'~eces­
sary to enter the various steps in the field, which woul-d also help to
raise its level in the eyes of the citizens. Boal'ds of Education of
yarious high schools throughout the state have raised their standards
of requirements for the respective teaching positions. The tendency
at present seems to inform us that such a movement will become
state-wide within the next two or three years.

A well balanced treatment of

Dear Editor:
I ·know it's a little late for this letter
to get to The Pointer. However, I ea.nnot refrain from dropping this in the
''slot''·
Those seve;n· hundred and fifty of us
who nearly filled the auditorium to ca·
pacity tonight (Monday) to hear th.e
''Petrie All-Star Quintet'' certainly
were well pleased with the program.
Iricide·ntally I might mention that of
the many comments that flowed freely
after the close of the· program, I did not
hear one that did riot praise the e.ntertainers. Our expectations were certainly
lived up to, to the "nth" degree. Pres'
ident Hyer ought to mllike an effort to
get the same eompany to favor us with
an appearance here again next year.
There is another little matter that deserves attention too. The Men's Glee
Club were very good i.n their initial performance. This is something new this
year arid deserves the unstinted praise
of its mariy admirers. There are distinct
possibilities of those men developing ~n­
to a real, first class choir. Go to it boys!
Everyone wants to see you continue the
good work.
Yours,

ASECOND FAKE
IS UNCOVERED
FOR STUDENTS
. ".reachers Agency Is Termed
lfot Reliable. Students
ShQuld Investigate
The following information coneerning an advertisement of a
Teachers Agency of which has apin several of the Teachers
college papers, a second graft
:Within .Teachers College circles in
the past two weeks, was received
the' ]NWrt week.
' Post-dated Checks
As :f-ar. ae we can learn the proeedore of the agency has been
to buy good-sized space, offering
post dated checks in payment,
_these checks being made payable
quite 800lle time after the a,dvertising would be of the most use.
The. registration fee appears to
be $3.00 if the candidate enrolls
for either a summer or school
year position, $5.00 if he enrolls
for both, $3.00 each additional if
candidates enroll in Department
B, which is for people who wish to
secure positions in the same city.
The oommission is 2%. This i~
quoted from the contra·ct, ''The
XYZ guarantee to secure a good
position for the eandidate - with
Sllbstantial raise in salary, if the
· ea.nd:idate is now teaching - or it
will, if the candidate requests a
refund, refund all the money paid
to the XYZ, including all the
money the candidate paid the
XYZ for photos. The candidate
agrees to supply the XYZ with at
least six good copies of his or her
photo. Failure to do so within
one week from the date of this enrollment will relie'Ve the XYZ
from all obligation to make a refund to the candidate."
Many Vacancies
Ineluded with the letters sent
to those who reply to their ad is
a map showing the approximate
number of va-cancies annually in
eaah state. 2,891 is the number
given for Wisconsin. The ad
states that "good positions" are
plentiful now and that complete
information will .be mailed upon
the reeeipt of a three--cent stamp.
They also offer oo. their registration blan•k to pay $5.00 for each
name suggested as a candidate as
soon as a position is secured for
this person.
How the manager got the data
from Wisconsin is a mystery.
Anyway it seems outrageous to
take money on this basis.
Mr. Herriek made an announ'Cein Ma.ss Conference M o n d a y
afternoon stating that all graduates interested in registering
with a Teachers Agency see him
as to the stability of the organization before doing so.
