TEACHERS TALK
PROBLEMS OF
GOMING YEAR
School problems for the com
ing year were brought before
local teachers Monday morning
when three state education offi
cials addressed a joint assembly
of city and county teachers at
Klamath Union high school. To
day's meeting was a prelimin
ary to tho official opening of
school Tuesday when students
are to report at 9 a. m.
Rex Putnam, state supcrin
tendont of public instruction,
was first to speak at the meet
ing. Definition
"The new definition of a
teacher," said Putnam, "is a per
son, usually a woman, who co
operates with every city, county
and federal agency in training
boys and girls between 6 and 17
years of age to work for the
Red Cross, register every man,
woman and child in United
States, drive jeeps, peeps, etc.
and in general teaching every
thing but reading, writing and
arithmetic from a building orig
inally known as a schoolhouse.
"I want to assure you that we
in the state department are co
operating with every agency
that helps shorten the war, but
we must not forget our respon
sibility in giving boys and girls
a sound fundamental training
with the other things gradually
worked In.
Hills Talks
Next to speak was Joy Hills
of the state department of education.
"Teachers are even more Im
portant than farmers," Miss
Hills said. "Teachers work with
more than food, they work with
the country's most precious re
source young people."
Miss Hills said that teachers
should try to develop in chil
dren above all certain technics
in Investigating and solving
problems for themselves.
She explained in 1944 there
are to be a number of changes
in school textbooks and that
this year a new third grade
book called "Stories of Oregon"
will be in use soon in Oregon
schools.
Dr. Frank Parr in his address
said that the future of the teach
ing profession is much brighter
in Oregon than in the past.
Advantage
"One advantage in the short
age of teachers now is that for
the first time the public real
izes that it can't buy us teachers
for 10 cents a dozen. They have
to pay us, and they are happy
to do it."
Salaries this year start from
$1200 a year instead of the $800
or lower in previous years.
The talks at the morning
meeting were preceded by a
business meeting, group singing
and two violin solos by John
O'Connor accompanied by Mrs.
O'Connor
In the afternoon session,
county teachers met at Alta-
roont Junior high school for
group meetings and city teach
ers met in groups in various
city schools.

FROM G.M. WAR WORKERS
and General Motors Is Rewarding That Spirit at the Rate of a Million Dollars a Year
1
3

Floyd C. Fox. a General Motors employe for 27
years, haa received two $1 ,000 War Bonds for
suggestions to improve methods of manufac
turing parte of an aviation engine.
For a suggestion resulting In simplification of
machine gun manufacture, submitted after she
had worked In the gun plant only six months,
Miss Esther Wrona received a 1 ,000 War Bond.
In all of its 112 plants in 50 cities of the United
States and Canada, General Motors encourages
employe suggestions for aiding war production,
through a carefully planned system of awards.
General Motors has always welcomed sugges
tions from employes. In fact, there have been
similar suggestion plans in various G.M. plants
for years, and it was thought that an expansion '
of these plans in these times would increase
war production efficiency.
As a result, G.M. war workers have to date
contributed 116470 written ideas. Yes, written
ideas. Many of them good ideas, "Victory
Ideas." Nearly 20,000 of them have been win
ning ideas and have beer put into operation.
For the open mind policy f General Motors
accords a fair test to every suggestion.
Eight thousand four hundred ideas were
submitted the very first month. They are now
coming in at a monthly rate of better than
10,000, or a yearly rate of one idea for every
three workers.
Thus, the individual war workers of General
Motors are being given full opportunity to add
their bit to the continuing contributions of
management, supervision and engineering, in
those activities which deal with increasing
production, saving materials, lowering costs
and promoting plant safety.
Helping Those Who Help America
In the first IS months' operation of its plan to
reward workers for ideas that assist our war
etWt, General Motors paid out $660395 in
War Bonds and Stamps. And today the awards
are being made at the rate of better than
million dollars year.
General Motors considers that money well
spent. It is a merited reward to those who help
America, It is a proper incentive for individual
initiative. It is one form of appreciation to
those who think as they work who are not
content merely to perform the requirements
of their jobs.
Something Better, Faster
Americans are always interested in ftndln .
ways to do things better and faster.
This American spirit among General Motor
men and women now also increased by the
desire to help win Victory and to back the men
at the war fronts accounts for their inspiring
performance.
There must be great inward satisfaction
for all who have submitted suggestions, in the
realization mat they have made some effort
out of the ordinary to help win the war.
They can say of themselves, as General
Motors says "Victory Is Our Business V
