EQUAL PAY BILL
Measure Vetoed Last Year by
Gov. Hughes Goes Through
by Vote of s. to 10.


ALBANY. March 2i-The Senate to-
day. after two hours deoate passed
the New York City School Teachers
Equal Pay bill The vote was thirty
iive in favor OF the measure and ten
against It. All the Democrats, except
ing Fuller. OF Brooklyn. supported the

act will be referred. has already de-
clared against It.
Last year the measure was passed In
both houses and later put through over
Mayor McClellans veto
II was vetoed by Gov. Hughes.
The bill was vigorously supported by
Horace White. of Syracuse. the million
aire champion of the women teachers
cause He said the essential feature of
the measure was the prevention Of dis
elimination in teachers salaries on ac
count OF sex. He answered the oOjec-
tions raised last year by Gov. Hughes.
"It has been said observed Senator
White that this bill established new
State policy, namely. equal pay regard
less Of sex. II Is difficult 10 see how
any man can raise this point. The State
long ago established the policy that dis
elimination should not be permitted In
the civil service
Nor Is this oili In violation OF home
rule. II 1t eorrects certain evils and at
the same time gives greater powers to
the local authorities. The Governor In
his message called attention 10 the evils
OF the system and practically recon-
mended that they be corrected. But
deaf ear has been turned TO him
Senator Travis, OF Brooklyn. attacked
the bill, although ne was one OF It's sup
pcrters last year. Senator Fuller, OF
Brooklyn. also spoke against It
Senators Grady and McCarreu made
