...unfair price charged for books in Government 1. These text books, not in stock, for the most part, in the second-hand bookshops of Cambridge, are a serious drain on the pockets of most Government students, the total cost, to date, being thirty-three dollars--fourteen the first half-year, nineteen the second.

...perilously close to collapse: ¶ In 20 Alabama counties 85,762 rural children have no schools to go to, 2,500 teachers no place to teach. Rural schools in 16 more counties may close any day. A few schools are kept open by parent subscriptions-$5 per half-year for grade pupils, $7.50 for high-school students. ¶ Chicago school teachers last week were threatened with a 14% cut on their still-unpaid salaries. ¶ New York City school teachers grudgingly took pay cuts averaging 6% to 7%. In the municipal budget other savings are scheduled by closing three teachers...
