on elementary schools. Mr.. Stern said
the present system was entirely wrong
and unjustly discriminatory. Under ex-
listing schedules a man started in with
a yearly salary of $780, and for three
years had an annual increase of sos.
women started at 5000 and then got in
creases for these first three years Of only
$40 a year During this period, which
was enc Of probation, the work done by
both was exactly the same.
But it is pointed out to the teachers,
Mr.. Stern said, that IL women were PIT
on the same salary schedule the MN
were under the expenses Of the depart
ment would Immediately jump $4,000
600 or more. That such q figure would
be prohibitive and would never get by
the board of estimate and apportion-
ment all interested in the change recog-
niZed, and a new scheme was devise I,
apparently suitable to everybody.
Start on Same Basis.
Under this new plan hereafter all
men and women alike appointed to the
department will start in at $40 a year.
For three years of their probation there
will be no increase. but IL at the end of
this time they get their permanent
licenses their pay will become $500, with
an annual increment yet to be deter
mined. This reduction in the amount
paid the men will offset the increased
amount to be given the women, so the
budget will not be increased.
One Of the details of the plan provided
that men at present in the department
under the old schedule should in no wise
be affected by the proposed change, but
should continue to receive their present
and increases. The justice
of this provision was recognized by the
women and accepted by them.
One Of the main concessions made by
the women was the agreement to SAVIOR
legislation eliminating from the charter
that section which validated all the old
grade A licenses in Brooklyn This
would be a great Improvement, Mr.. Stern
said. Present methods Of promotion
were in a muddle, owing to provisions of
law whereby licenses issued fifty years
ago and since then must be recognized,
and the holders entitled to promotion. It
was proposed to do away with all licenses
except such as had been procured under
competitive examination since the pas
sage OF tho new charter.
