TEACHERS’ CLAIM AND PUBLIC OPINION


WHATEVER one thinks of tile claims made by the National Union of Teachers, whose “sanctions'' begin at Blackburn on Monday, one must agree that they have set about their battle with a good sense of res­ ponsibility to ensure that the hostilities do not affect the children’s education.


For that the people will give' them credit, but in .


other respects every indicator of public opinion— “debates” in the local, conversations and an opinion poll—point to the bleak fact that support lor the tea­


chers is small. Teachers, of course, know that there is always a


degree of prejudice against them. Most probably it stems from envy, for to the outsider the teacher has a soft job, with short hours and long holidays and noth­ ing whatever to grumble at. But there is the other side of the picture—the long period of training, so that a teacher is 21 or thereabouts before starting to cam. and the fact that, by the nature of the job. most teachers must initially work away from home .and therefore have the expense of extra lodgings. Most im­ portant of all, there is the strain of the “blackboard jungle” itself—and in what other job would a man be expected to work through his dinner hour occasion­ ally lor nothing? In addition, a teacher gives up quite a lot of time to out-of-school activities. But even if the public forget this side of the work,

CONCRETE BEAMS TO BE CARRIED OVER COUNTRY ROADS


Director replies to Rowland critics


A storm is brewing over the proposals made by the civil engineering firm of Leonard


Fairclough I.td. to demolish Low Moor Mill and erect on d'e sile " single - storey factory for the manufacture of concrete beams for motorway construction. Replying to criticisms of proposals to transport 90-loot


long concrete beams along narrow country roads in Bowland Alderman R. F. Mottershcad, a director of the company, told the Advertiser and Times that he considered the roads to be completely suitable.

it is apparent that the real reason for the cool attitude to the claim is that there is no longer a general consen­ sus of opinion that teachers are badly paid (as there genuinely was before the award in 1955) and that the increase of 13 per cent which they then received brought them to parity with comparable jobs.

The heavy hands of the


ideals, but the need for pay restraint is not permanent. It is intended lo allow the economy to draw breath and lo break the vicious spiral which always nullifies any pay gal i within monl s of its receipt. If one sec­ tion wins an award then another begins lo air its griev­ ance and the whole merry-go-round begins again, stopping only long enough to take more passengers before setting off on another dizzy whir! of selt-seek- ing. The whole purpose of pay restraint will be under­ mined if one section of workers—be they teachers or dockers—gets a wage award that other workers believe fo be unwarranted. The affluent British are in the pro­ cess of learning that they can’t go on paying them­ selves more than they have in the kitty, so personally we regret the teachers’ intransigence and think they would°have been wiser lo keep the pay claim separate from the issues of meal supervision and unqualified
