Lions fortieth birthday is celebrated \K \ PRESIDENT This is tho time of year when teachers throughout the nation are being bullied into joining local, state and nauonal education associations. It is of little interest what these associations do, or what it costs to belong, a teacher is told “You just aren’t profes sional if you don’t join!” This is a matter of opinion and my opinion is that if a teacher does pay up and join these groups, especially the state and nat ional education associations, they are distinguishing them selves more a^ unionists than as professionals. The NEA has a new presi dent -Mrs. Elizabeth Koontz of Salisbury, N’. the first Ne gro to hold the top job in the association. No sooner had she taken office than she described herself as a “militant” a n d said that she intends to galva nize what she calls "teacher power" into the top-echelon policies T the association. This “teacher power”, guided by the NEA. is what led to The caUm- trophie teacher strike in Flor ida la-t year To fpiote Jesse ! !• lm> of WRAP TV. “Tim NEA lias had to struggle to pre-erve public acceptance , o t>> imw by car--full y avoid mg as lx"-! :t could, the grewing impre-son that the association !s i "tie mot-■ than a teachers’ union But if Mrs. Koontz con- • ’ i- 1 s ’o bandy comments about '' ■ ■ a - d: e! powe 1 " and “teacher force" and what she refers to a her own “ militancy" then th-- cat will be irretrievably out of th,' bag. The public will un derstand that the NEA is not so much interested in education rm in the customary pressure functions of a labor union.” The NEA points with pride to its position a.- lobbyist, claiming credit for the millions of dollars poured into educa tion from the federal treasury.
