Teachers Earn Less Than Diggers and Face Shortage
Washington reports that teachers average about 1400 dollars yearly, while bricklayers earn up to 4500 in New York high and 3250 in Charlotte low, highlighting a widening pay gap. The Roosevelt era shifts, wartime birth spikes, and government pay lure many from teaching, with 60,000 jobs unfilled and 350,000 leaving since 1939, creating a deepening educational crisis. More children rise toward 23 million by 1954, yet fewer people enter teaching schools and many hold emergency certificates, undermining classroom competence. In Norwalk, teachers protest for better contracts as the dilemma worsens.
