l The most profound effect of the
slashing of budgets in our public
schools has been to overcrowd the

of the School of Education, director
of the Bureau of Co-operation with

The American Child Health As- Educational Institutions, said yes-

ing school budgets he said, has been
to eliminate the finer courses, such
as music, drama, and art, which
heretofore have been tremendous
factors in holding the students' in-
terest in their scholastic work.
Also, many high school post-grad-
uates have been crowded out. Added
to this is the attemp, on the part
of those fortunate enough to remain
to insist upon more time to be given
them in instruction by teachers al-

ready over-worked. This is not only
unfair to the teachers, but to the
high school students themselves, to
whom the teachers' time rightfully
belongs.
Professor Carrothers pointed out
that the elimination of many post-
graduate students has given rise to
the so-called "depression colleges,"
which are appearing throughout the
country. Located in large cities, they
are made up of faculties recruited
from various sources; and offer the
students college courses correspond-
ing roughly to those given by estab-
lished colleges, for an annual tuition
fee of about $50.
