Favored by Alderman Bowling
if They Don't Do as They're Bid.

city Superintendent Of Schools Maxwell
argued before the Finance Committee Of
the Board of Aldermen yesterday for In
creased salaries FOR teachers In the train

I'm other places employees go where
they are sent or they get the hook.
said Alderman Bowling.
I'VE haven't tried that method yet"
said Superintendent Maxwell with smile.
