Since 1944, VA has underwritten 4,760,000 GI home loans, with the original principal amount of $38.8 billion. VA guaranteed approximately $21 billion of that a- mount. During 1956, VA was asked to appraise about 710,000 existing and proposed homes to be offered for sale to veterans as a." slightly more than a million units in 1955. Approximately 20% of the GI home loans closed during 1956 were made without a down payment and 38% had maturities of 26 to 30 years.

The North Carolina Education Association cites these facts in a leaflet on the demand and supply of teachers in North Carolina. Over 300,000 copies of the publication are being distributed. The demand for qualified white teachers is greater than the supply produced by colleges. Colleges graduated 1,907 in 1955, but only 1,047 taught in North Carolina the following school year. The schools needed 2,602—a need which exceeded the supply of graduates by 700. The leaflet also points out that the average salary of North Carolina's teachers in 1950-51 ranked 29th in the nation, but this year dropped to 38th. Most of this decrease ocurred last year, for in 1955-56 the rank was 33rd. This year the average salary in North Carolina is $3,291, while the national average is $4,220, In almost every other southeastern state higher maximum salaries are provided in certain districts and units. The problem of providing enough teachers is also pointed out in the leaflet. A minimum of 30,000 new white teachers will be needed in the next ten years. If the resent trend continues, colleges will prepare about 20,000, and only 11,000 of these will teach in North Carolina following graduation. If only half the young people who prepare to teach actually teach, North Carolina will be faced with the task of preparing about 60,000 new teachers in the next 10 years. The leaflet is being distributed for study at the local level. The problems concerning the demand and supply of teachers are denned in a series of questions: (1) How can we encourage more young people to enter the teaching profession?; (2) How can we get young people to teach after they prepare to teach?; (3) Should we invest tax money to prepare teachers and then lose them to other states and other occupations?; (4) How important are schools, teachers, and children to the future of our state?; (5) How long can we remain a progressive state if we stay out of step with progress?; (6) How can we provide higher salaries?; (7) Can we afford to prepare 60,000 new teachers?; (8) Can we afford to get only half those we prepare?; (9) How much is a teacher worth?; (10) Does it pay to invest in education?" Ronnie Swartzel is an easy man for anyone to write or talk about when they are on the subject of sports.

Q—May a veteran change his Korean GI Bill program of training if his progress in his present course has not been satisfactory? A—He may, providing he shows VA that the lack of progress was not due to his own misconduct, neglect or lack of application, and if he has not changed his program prior to that time. Beat Elon!
