THE DISTRICT COMMISSIONERS WRITE LErTRR 10
SENATOR PLUMB
The Commissioners have written to Senator
Plumb in reply to a verbal inquiry concerning the
public school appropriations. as follows: ''For the
removal OF schools from basement rooms and from
other rooms unit for use as school rooms and to
provide whole day schools for all pupils eight
years Of age and over will require all the school
buildings which are provided Ior by the pending
appropriation bill as amended by the Senate. II
whole day schools are TO be provided for children
the number OF buildings. = this case one OF the
school buildings in the first, one In the third and
one in the NTH division might be dispensed with"
In response TO inquiries or the same gentleman,
tue Commissioners further say that on behalr OF
the school board Mr.. Ross A. Fish has. addressed
a letter to them.
He asks that the Commissioners have a confer.
ence with the Senate Committee and get them to

Visions tnakinS eesealn reSsrictlons regarding the

ganization OF the public schools In three impor.
the average salary paid to teachers and the az,
gregate amount OF salaries. Under this proyis-
ION Mr.. Fish thinks further restrictions OF the bill
are unnecessary, and make 1t difficult to adjust
salaries wisely.
He says that he is informed that 1t is thought by
members OF the committee that this provision does

the same light and strike the paragraph from the
bill as suggested. He earnestly pleads that the
provision forbiddng discrimination between male
and female teachers be stricken out.
at will, he says, "utterly fail to accomplish the
purpose for which 1t was introduced, viz, TO make
female teachers receive equal salaries for equal
work with male teachers. It Is the desire of the
board 10 give the female teachers as much as male
teachers when they do the same work. but 1t can.
not be done under this provision; 1t will only re.
duce some very competent male teachers TO lower
grades OF salaries, as the preceding paragraph
forbids increase OF salaries or increase Of the
