TALES OUT OF SCHOOL
i How Old Is Your Teen Ager ?
EDo you have a boy or girl talk
iing day and night about getting
‘a license to drive the family car ?
{We have 64,000 15 year olds in
| Georgia right now, most of whom
iwill be applying for driver’s li
{censes next year. There’s a bill
in the Legislature (House Bill 116)
!to use driver license money to
ifinance high school courses in
|driver education. The course
fwould require 30 hours of class
]room study and six-hours.under-.
:the-wheel instruction. Insurance
'companies recognize the value of
i this by giving your family a 10%
‘reduction on rates if your teen
(age son has had this course. The
I bill in the General Assembly pro
vides that a youngster who has
taken this standard driver educa
tion course can get a driver’s li
,cense at 16. Without it, he will
have to wait until he is 18. High
' schools which would want to
}put this course in could req
uisition as pay so instructor
is2s per pupil. Education leaders‘i
'in the Department of Education
think this is'a good bill, and hope
lit will pass. There were 1128
people. killed on’ Georgia high
ways last year . . . more thanl
ever before. Only 132 of our
high schools now have driver edu- 1
cation courses.. We have 655 high |
schools. - T. A. Carmichael is our
’co-"ordinator of ‘safety education
here .in the State -Department of
lEdu‘catio_n.‘ : o
~ How 'To Find ' Infromation —
3Business has a gripe. They don’t
‘object: to answering the millions
of inquiries they get yearly from
‘school children studying this or
‘that. - What they do' object to is
‘that much of it could have been
found in the World Almanac, the
telephone directory or the diction
ary. Say the business men: “Let
the schools teach the youngsters
how to exhaust the possibilities
of their own library in finding in- !
formation; then write to us.” I
knaw what they mean. "We get
letters like this, believe it or
not. “Please send me all you
have about education.” Or from
some other state, “Please send me
all the information you have|
about Georgia. Our class is study
ing it.”

1 9 million dollars to devote to this.
Which one of these things would
you choose to do: 1. Increase be
lginning salaries to attract more
Il young people into the profession.
2. Give an across the board raise
to every teacher, same increases
to everybody, 3. Give a percent
age raise according to what she is
making now, 4. Use it for incre
ments beyond the present nine
years (under present law, her
salary does not go up for any ex

Use half for an across the board
]raise, and the other half to give
increments for 12 and 15 years ex-.

group of classroom teachers the
other day at a meeting. Most of
them voted for the last idea.

er at Your House ? If your high
school youngster is interested in
teaching, send a dime to the Na

Street, Washington, 6, D. C. and
get for him or her the 16 page
pamphlet “Invitation To Teach —‘
1f "You Have What It Takes.”
NEA'’s Research Division has come'
up with ‘some interesting facts
about the prospect before us: that
a teacher may reasopably expect
to make $300,000 during his pro
fessional career, that because of
a teacher shortage, there will be
a need for 125,000 to 150,000 new
teachers every year from now un
til 1965 (and therefore, practically
a guarantee of a job), and that
there are more rewards in teach
ing than your youngster has yet
'dreamed of. Good thing to look
into.
i Money Goes Up—Did you know
‘that the appropriation for com-l
‘mon schools increased from $104,-
418.72 in 1954-55 to $124,100,-
000.00 this year? That’s State
money. It makes up 72% of the
school budget. Local money aver- |
ages 24% and federal funds 4%.{

THE PROPOSED FEDERAL
budget for 1957-68 looks like an
oversized Sears-Roebuck catalog.
It is a formidable book of 1251
pages, not including the 356-page
supplement required to list the
Government’s payroll, and weighs
four and three-fourths pounds. Un
like the “wish book,” however, it
"does not contain something for
everybody as it leaves the poor
taxpayer out without even a hint
of that long-promised tax cut.
The $71.8-bil
lion new spend
ing program is
a far cry from
" the pledge
which President
Eisenhower
made as a can
didate in 1952
to “cut: federal
spending to something like S6O bil
lion within four years.” Rather it
is strangely reminiscent of the final
Truman budget which horrified the
incoming Eisenhower Administra
tion and prompted a $lO billion cut.
It also points up a striking incon
sistency with the President’s State
of the Union message in which he
pled for labor and mangement to
combat inflation by foregoing un
necessary wage and price increases
and resolved that the Federal Gov
ernment would utilize “only a
prudent share of the nation’s re
sources.”
«* % %
.MERELY TO. READ the budget
thoroughly would require at least
three days of uninterrupted read
ing and to make a comprehensive
study of it would take months.
Several significant facts stand out,
however, even upon superficial
examination.... - ,
