of married teachers.
Miss Condon told a group of
educators that, while the teach
ers' union opposes employment
of married teachers, she herself
"would rather have married
teachers than no teachers at all."
That, she said, might be the
alternative in these days of short
age. She cited a case In which sin
gle teacjiers, without college ed
ucations, were given S230 per
month lobs provided they went
to summer school.
Hiring such untrained women
to teach, she said, meant payinij
$250 a month "to a baby silter,
and not a good bahy sitter at
that." She urged schools not to
lower teachers' educational re
quirements. Miss Condon spoke at the open
ing of the western regional con
ference of the Council of State
Governments here.
