Abstract
AMONG developments of the past three years concerning the legal status of teachers have been (a) much state legislative activity in establishing new and higher minimum-salary laws, (b) some progress in the extension and clarification of state statutes designed to afford a reasonable security of employment, accompanied by an apparent slight reduction in the volume of litigation relating thereto, and (c) gradual improvement of the statutes providing for statewide and local retirement systems. The salutary principles underlying these types of legislation are coming to be more widely understood thruout the United States. The agency which was most prolific in producing the studies on which this review is based was the Research Division of the National Education Association, whose legal studies were conducted chiefly by Madaline K. Remmlein. Much useful nationwide surveying and thoughtful reporting was done by the United States Office of Education, whose specialist in school legislation was Ward W. Keesecker. Studies from other sources were made by various individuals, some of whom were educators or members of the legal profession, and were published in educational journals and law reviews.
