For Details on These ond Other Newsy Ads Read By KAY RAY Of The Times Washington Staff WASHINGTON Louisiana boasts the South's brightest educational picture. Following a dramatic climb in the educational sun, the state not only led the South in expenditures per pupil in average daily attendance in its public day schools in 1950-51 but tied for 25th place in the nation' in such spending.

This rating, based on latest available figures, is a long way from the 39th place which the state held in 1940-41. At that time, Florida rated 38th to lead the 10 other Southern states. During the 1950-51 term, the Pelican State invested $228 per pupil. It spent only $58.75 per pupil in 1940-41. National average for 1950-51 was only $224.

The Southern average was $165 per pupil. Not only have the yrungsters benefited by tha state's intensi fied interest in its schools. Their teachers have too. In 1940-41 the "average" instructor in the state received an annual salary of $4,019. During the 1950-51 term, he drew $2,864.

The 1950-51 average for instructors was the 27th highest in the nation. The average Louisiana teacher during the 1940-41 term ranked 34th in the country in pay received. Rank held in 1950-51 by other Southern states and the expenditure of each per pupil in average daily attendance included Florida, 33rd, $196; Virginia, 38th, $157; North Carolina, 39th. $155; Tennessee, 40th, $138; Kentucky, 41st. $135; Georgia.

42nd. $133; South Carolina, 43rd, $132; Alabama. 44th, $126; Arkansas, 45th, $117, and Mississippi, 43th, $93. According to William A. Jar-acz.

specialist in educational statistics, U. S. Office of Education, "Regional data show that the South has only 27 per cent of the current expenditure money to educate 37 per cent of the pupils, and therefore, has an average of from $900 to $1,000 less per year than in the northeast and west regions, and spent about $100 less per year per pupil than in these regions." In 1950-51, Louisiana public elementary and secondary day schools had a total enrollment of 502,000 and had 14.200 high school graduates. An inspection of 1950 and 1940 census reports reveals that the education level of residents of the state is rising. In 1940 the median number of school years completed was 6.6.

In 1950 the median number was 7.7 years. In 1940 the state had only persons of 25 years or older who had completed at least four years of college. In 1950 there were 68,890 college graduates included in that age group. WASHINGTON, Nov. 29 m-Is woman's place in the home? Apparently one out of four wives thinks not.

A record 10,700,000 married women held paying jobs this year, according to an April survey published today by th Census Bureau. This was 350,000 more than last year and 3.000,000 more than during World War II. The bureau noted, however, that this year's increase was "a good deal smaller" than immediately after World War II. The survey showed that, on the other hand, the number of single women holding jobs continued a decline that started after tha war. They totaled 100.000 this year, 400,000 fewer than in 1952.

The number of employed widows and divorcees totaled 3,000.000, about the same as during the past several years. They brought the total of working women to almost 19,000,000. Of every 100 working women, 57 were married, 27 single and 18 widowed or divorced. About half of all single women were employed compared with one-fourth of all wives. The survey also showed that, contrary to popular thought, most working wives hold full-time instead of part-time jobs.

In practically all types of jobs, however, married women on the average work fewer hours than other women.
