(Wireless to The New York Times and The Gazette.) women in the Toronto High Schools is tne same as that tor men, while in Montreal the disproportion is striking, there being difference of $1,400 against women at the maximum. In Winnipeg, the High School scale for women runs from $1,800 to $2,800, and for men it also com- mences at $1,800 but runs to $3,400 Vancouver betters its position as regards High school scales, com' pared with its elementary rates, by paying men from $1,800 to $3,200, commencing $300 higher -than in Montreal for men teachers, but with a lower maximum.

For women High School teachers the Vancouver scale also commences at $1,800 53U0 higher than the Montreal minimum rate for both men and women but runs to a maximum of $2,900, which is $400 higher than the Montreal High School women's maximum. RURAL TEACHERS' PLIGHT. Getting away from Montreal, ac tual comparisons become more dif ficult, and must be generalized, since outside of Montreal there is no real scale in the province. In rural Quebec teachers are still paid less than are domestic servants and less than the $1250 weekly mini mum for shopgirls, and the best that has been reached is the estab lishment of a minimum salary of $400 through the rural sections, this brought about by increased provincial government grants, and not local effort. The Canadian Teachers Federation, it is pointed out in the report of the Survey Committee, has as an objective a $900 minimum for rural teachers throughout Canada, but how attainment of this objective has failed is.

shown by some of the facts given in the report. There was a slight improvement in 1941-1942 as compared with 1939- 1940, but the figures would indicate that the increased government grants to bring the minimum up to $400 will of itself make little, if any, difference in the rural Protestant situation. In 1939-40 the average rural Protestant salary was $456, and for last year the figures snow as follows in tne eight In spectorates: Southeast Quebec and Eastern Townships, $449; Southwest Quebec, $437; Gaspe, Bonaventure, $461; fonnac, uatineau, $011; iiower Ottawa and North St. Lawrence, $488; Brome, Missisquoi, Shefford, $480; Quebec Labrador. $450: Maedalen Islands, $395.

In the first inspectorate one teacher was receiving less man $duu, in tne second inspector ate, six teachers were receiving $uu; in the tnird inspectorate five teachers were receiving $400; in the fourth, three teachers were receiving $300; in the fifth one teacher was receiving $300; in the sixth three teachers were receiving $400; in the seventh two teachers were receiving $400, and in the eighth one teacher was receivinff less than $300. Off the Island of Montreal, High School salaries show no encouraging signs, the average for 1940-41 being $1,795 for men and $941 for women, and the discrepancies between men's and women's salaries off the Island is attributed to advantage being taken of the law of supply and demand. There has been no war time cost of living bonus for Quebec teachers, though since the war the cost of living has risen 16 points, which on the government basis of 25 cents a point, would mean $200 a year should have been added to the salaries all around. The general condition of the rural teacher is summarized by Mrs. Mcintosh of Bedford, as follows: 'More than seventy-eight per cent, of the teachers live away from their own homes, and therefore, have to pay board and room.

For this, the average charge is about 35 per cent of the teachers' meagre salary. (Percentage being reckoned on the basis of 12 months living expense). Six per cent of them board in houses where they have not a bed room to themselves, 18 per cent, report inadequate and unsuitable food, 34 per cent have no room in which they can entertain, discuss private business, work, or read quietly. Even in their bedrooms, 23 per cent, have insufficient heating to permit reading and study. Many teachers deplore the fact that tney nave to go to dm to Keep warm.

The tacts as to each woman entering a plant will be known immediately she commences to work, for a card will be filled out for each woman, and she will know where to leave her children if unable to make her own arrangements for the care or them, lor many cases it is realized women will be able to arrange with relatives for the care of the children, as is being done at the present time with mothers who work in plants, and have so far apparently been able to manage with out the aid of government nurseries.

Good food and a healthful life have done wonders for the youngsters, each of whom has put on ten to fifteen pounds in weight What is more impressive about them is the vigor with which they go about their various tasks. Every instructor remarked about that and we could see it.

We watched groups all day. Some were starting in classrooms, learning the principles of Enfield rifles and Bren and tommy-guns, while other groups out on ranges, who had already gone through th preliminaries, were firing at targets. It has been years since any Chinese force has had real ammunition with which to train its men. Their shooting is good with rifles, for they handled them before. They art even better with 70-mm.

Because the -seizures were made under the Customs and Excise Act. the operators of machines in operation in a number of stores were invited to attend the seizures by tne ieaerai ponce, lnese operators were allowed to ooen the cash drawer and to give the storekeeper his share of the receipts while they pocketed their profits. This procedure is in direct contrast to previous seizures under the gambling laws, when the money in tne casn arawer was seized and ordered confiscated by the courts it appeared likely last nif.t thai (Continued from Page 13.) women, a total of 575; this year, 469 men and 164 women, making a total or o33.

Last year in engineering there were 463 students registered. This year there are 493. An interesting point about the registration in en gineering for this year is that for tne first time in the history of McGill a woman has been enrolled in engineering. Architecture this year has 38 students registered, of whom 13 are women, an increase of 11 over last year's total number. The medical school this year has 394 men and 21 women, an increase of 24 men, but a decrease of 3 women.

DENTISTRY ROLL UP. There are 65 registered in dentistry this year, an increase of 4 over last year's enrolment. In the faculty of agriculture 7 women this year help to make up a total of 115. Last year there were no women fegistered in the course-Household Science last year had 94 women registered, this year there are 104. The Library School this year has 12 students, and the Faculty of Music has nine; both indicate slight increases over last year's enrolment.

In the diploma courses the registration is down in all but the School for Graduate Nurses and the Faculty of Music Licieniate course. There are 52 nurses registered this year, as compared with 34 last year, and there are 26 taking the licentiate diploma, which is an increase of six over last year. The school for teachers shows a big drop 49 this year, as compared with 113 last year, a decrease of over 50 per cent. 1 The School of Physical Education has 18 this year, which is a decrease of one compared with last year. The figures for the graduate school have not been released yet, but it seems fo be indicated that registration there will be at least as heavy as last year's.
