T FOR EDUCATORS HELD STATE NEED Salem, Jan. 14.

State Superintendent of Public Instruction Rex Putnam wrote today In his department's monthly publication. "No shortage of certified teachers exists in Oregon, but there is a definite shortage of public school teaching positions paying salaries large enough to attract and hold teachers. This condition operates to give the same effects as an actual short age of teachers. "Unless something can be done In the near future to effect salary adjustments on a reasonable scale, Oregon will be faced with a serious loss of efficiency and economy in the conduct of public elementary and high school pro grams," Putnam wrote.
