PAGE SIX Lack of Teachers In State Worries Salem, Ore., Dec. 29 IP Dp. spite a constitutional requirement that a uniform and general sys tem of education shall be provided In Oregon, the educational advant ages for children of the state are as varied as the developments in 1898 school districts, Rex Putnam, state superintendent of public in structlon, said here yesterday. The economic disparity of school organization in the coun ties has caused a situation where It is impossible to obtain fully and adequately trained teachers in some sections, Putnam said. In explaining the financial set ud of the state school system, he said that the state provides 30 per cent of school support, includ ing the $5,000,000 income tax-de rived support fund, while 12Ms per cent comes from the individual counties and 5714 per cent is sup plied from taxes on real property . of the school districts. The latter figure varies from district to dis trict, Putnam declared, citing one instance where property worth $5000 would pay $3, while in an other district it would pay $143.50. There will be 1300 teachers needed in the state next year, ho said, and teacher training institu tions will graduate only 245.
