The Secretary was satisfied. * • * The Honorable, Secretary of Instruction Manuel V. Gallego, in a speech delivered before principals and supervisors of the City of Manila, expressed the fear that the PPSTA might turn radical and advocate strikes.

Dr. Antonio Isidro of the U. P. College of Education, spoke eloquently on our "colonial mentality" and suggested that one of the im~ortant causes of this perpetuation of our propensity toward servitude is our preference of English and other foreign languages to our own national language . Mr. Juan C. Laya, of the Arellano High School, spoke on rehabilitation of the teacher before she should be assigned this all-important t.ask of national rehabilitation. Rev. Enrique Sobrepei'ia, another speaker, stressed the full utilization of our resources, natural as well as personal, as a significant measure of national rehabilitation. Miss Maria Teresa Feria, teacher, of the Holy Ghost College, talked on women's education. The Panel of Interrogators were to have been Dr. Pedro T. Orata, Pres. Florentino Cayco, Mrs. Flora A.

"US" did not show up. Some teachers in the audience suggested that the "big shots" might not have thought it quite up to their dignity to interrogate mere school teachers and principals and ministers on so big a subject. * * * Talking about "mere teachers." Our Association relies on "mere teachers" for its mainstay, not the top brass of the Bureau. The Educator encourages "mere teachers" to express themselves in letters, in articles, in news reports about what they and their associations are doing. The Educator loves the "mere teacher" and intends to make itself ultimately the mouthpiece of "mere teachers." If there is now much material published by school executives and "top brass," it is because teachers have not yet awakened to ~he> p0.>sibilities of this "voice of 56,000 teachers." Incidentally, there are now 56,851 public school teachers, according to Dr . Tito Clemente of the Division of Measurement and Statistics. That i·s fully 49olo of all government employees.
