All textbooks have completely veniahod, and shops teking advantage of the shortage are offering 6d. books at 7/6d. There are no teachers' booke available. It is really urgent that my suggestion in signal No. 14 of the 20th September, repeated bolow, should be implemented at the carliest possible opportunity. Priority in this respect should be given to tonchers' bocke. ao nre also urgently in need of exercise books, pens, pencils, ink, blockboards and chalk. It should bo possible to estimate requiromonts by taking one third of the quantitics creered for education in Holage, where there was on ostimoto of 350,000 children.
(7) No machinery of any description has bocn loft in the Ize do School, although the building is in a very good state of rccalr, and only necãe nccessory cicaning. Certein C. Whito the Principal of tho Trndo School, is now on his way Home to England, ond he should be given a froo hand in the pureroso of the machinery neccesary to re-start the ndo sehool, The so rcolnecments should take into consideration the roquiromonts of a technical college, to which aduentioanl standard the Trade school hed already reached.
T&T Control British School is in the same condition with regard to oquipment as the Northeoto Training Collogo.
