TEACHERS’ DISMISSALS
-MARRIED WOMEN TO GO. (By Telegraph—Per Press Association) WELLINGTON, October 22. Legislation is to be promoted this session to enable Education Boards, at their discretion, to dispense with the sot vices of married women in the teaching service, where it is found that they have husbands who are in work. An announcement to this effect has been made by'the Minister of Education, Mr Masters, who said that every case would be thoroughly inquired into. No injustice would lie done to any person. There were out of employment at the present time, be said, a very large number of school teachers, whom it bad cost the Government a considerable sum to train. Every opportunity should be afforded them to enter the services, rather than to retain women teachers who already had sufficient income by reason, of the fact that thejr husbands were in regular work, and earning sufficient to maintain them. Mr Ma-teis added that the right of appeal would be included in the legislation.
