The suggestions are the result of a two-year study by a 16-mem- ber commission headed by Dr. R. L. Johnson, president of Temple University. The group said this state ranks 37th among the 48 states in the percentage of its population with two or more years of college edu- cation. To improve the state’s educa- tional level, the committee recom- mended: 1. Expansion of Pennsylvania's engineering colleges to permit a 20 percent increase in enrollment. 2. That Penn State College de- vote more attention to two-year courses in vocational agriculture —even, if necessary, at the ex- pense of other school activities. 3. That more junior and com- munity courses be set up to re- duce the cost of continuing edu- cation beyond high school. These school should offer courses in the technical, commercial, agricultural and home-making fields. 4. Restriction of the number of out-of-state students permitted to attend Pennsylvania’s medical and dental schools. of the students of these schoois are from other states. 5. That the 14 staws teacher colleges give their “immediate at- tention” to providing more ele- mentary school teachers. They recommended adoption of a new constitutional amendment whereby the superintendent of public instruction would be nom- inated by the State Council of education and appointed by the governor for an indefinite term. Under present law, the superin- tendent is appointed by the gov- ernor for a four-year term. The committee agreed that the present college scholarship pro- gram, including the state sena- torial scholarship plan, is ‘not entirely satisfactory nor ade- quate.” They did not make any recommendations but urged that the problem be studied further. A further study of the nursing schools also was suggested. Another recommendation pro- vided for the cancellation of all certifications of teacher-education institutions on Mar. 1, 1949. The study would reexamine all the schools before certifying them again.

A special order by Secretary of the Interior Henry M. Teller in the 1880's made publishing a newspaper in the Cherokee Strip territory (now northern Okla.) a crime punishable by imprison- ment and fine. Conviction carried a possible one five-year jail term or a fine of $1,000-$5,000 or both. A pioneer Oklahoman, Captain David Payne, sometimes called the ‘father of Oklahoma,” posted a copy of Teller's order on the door of his newspaper office and went ahead and published his paper, the War Chief, anyway.
