Dear Sin Accuracy and objectivity are two watchwords of journalism but your article in the Jan 11 1934 issue entitled “The Governor and the Schools” was wanting in both The inaccuracies begin in the first paragraph wherein you accuse me of slashing a nonexistent state “social security proan gram" We do not have suchinacanimal Along with other curacies there are unwarranted implications and notable omissions which make your article grossly misleading It is hardly a sign of malnutrition that Utah ranks 37th in the United States in the amount spent on each pupil That is exactly where we rank with other states in our ability to support public schools as measured by the total personal income per enrolled pupil On the same basis we rank 48th in our ability to support public colleges Despite our low rank in ability to support education we nevertheless lead the nation in our efforts to do so as measured by the percentage of personal income devoted to -- our schools Not Good Indicator Comparison of the amount expended per school child is not always a good indicator of the quality of education offered in any event For example the smallest school district in Utah spends almost twice as much per pupil as the largest but the largest district likely has the better quality program The decrease in the number of graduates from the schools of education at our college and university (we have no “teachers’ colleges" as you implied) corresponds to the general decline in overall enrollment at these institutions Some professional educators incidentally by constantly decrying the negative aspects of teaching have hindered rather than helped the teacher recruitment cause Your statement that 400 teach- -
