“A survey has disclosed

Albert F. Coombs, The Val-

Texas public schools are becoming more
conscious of "career" education, a move
which we wholeheartedly endorse.
In this opinion, our public schools for
years overwhelmingly emphasized formal
education." This was good ... to a point.
But perhaps the entire American society s
concept was oriented too much toward white

instances even downgrading, other skilled
PrTfhisSitrend since World War II has led to
shortage of personnel in such professions as
mechanics, carpentry, plumbing, B printing,
welding and on and on. Even agriculture
felt the pinch of young persons leaving the
farm in search of white collar jobs.
Without realizing it, the United States adopted
the attitude that to work with one's hands is
degrading.
Suddenly an overabundance of trained per-
sons in certain fields—especially those re-
quiring a formal education--developed while
numerous skilled professions ran short of
trained, qualified persons.
Now we are reassessing our position.
The public school system and the government
--through the development of vocational
schools—is leading the way in reversing the
trend. Individuals who would have in the
past joined welfare rolls suddenly are find-
