Economy Wave On.

There IS also little doubt but that the
members Of Congress have little inten-
ton at present Of giving the salaries
the desired boost. This is explained by
the fact that the economy wave is now
at It's height, and the expressed opin-
lon by some members that the teach
ers are now fairly well paid
When the bill goes before the commit
tees there will be a lively campaign on
the subject, surprising that OF last ses-
sion.

fact that. If the salaries are set by

to have their salaries increased when

the House.

ruling of the Chair that 1t was out of

The effects of this bill. If passed. will
be to classify and systematize the
teaching force OF the District as the

tain class would draw, under the pro-
posed statute. a certain and invaria-
Die salary. Such an arrangement will
obviate the excitement and worry
every session of Congress over the
teachers salaries
There is little doubt that the District

every effort to have their salaries in
creased when the time comes for the
