LETTER FROM MR sTEpHEys.
Caroline County Made No Attempt 10
EYnde Teachers salary Law.

lSdltor OF the Advocate.
find In my mail clipping which
assume Is an editorial taken from
the last weeks iosas Of the Adeocate.
The explanation you make Is some-
what misleading. For the last schol-
astic year the school commissioners
of Caroline county paid to all teach
ers holding first class certificates the
amount fixed by law The contro-
versy you mention was not one be-
tween the teachers and the county
school board. because the teachers
have been paid their salaries IN full
and there was no reason whatever
for them to institute a suit III the
matter When the time came last
June for the school board to ask for
levy for school purposes, II WAS estl-
mated that II would require an ap-
preparation OF $4,000 In order TO pay
the teachers legal salaries and build
necessary school houses. The county
commissioners axed the levy at S22,-
900. claiming that ample provision
had been made In the amount for the
salaries of teachers in accordance
with the law OF 1908. They also
claimed that the levy for other pur-
poses was as large AS II has heen
heretofore
There has been no attempt on the
part Of either the school commisaion-
erH or the county commissioners OF
Caroline county to eyade the pro-
visions OF the salary law above re-
ferred 10.
Yours very truly,
