TEACHERS SALARIES
TO Be INCREASED
Maximum Pay Will Be Raised
From 5000 to $1,000 Per
School Year.

The maximum salary for teachers in
the grade schools of Salt Lake is to he
increased from $l020 TO $1,000 per an
mum, probably before the beginning of
another school year, according 10 mem
bers Of the board Of education.
The initial step in this direction was
taken last night at the regular meet
ing when the salary schedule was
amended so as TO extend the maximum
salary of manual training teachers TO
$1,000 Heretofore the manual training
teachers have been held TO the same
maximum as the regular grade teachers.
II was announced after the meeting last
night that this amendment was fore
runner to a general amendment cmbrac-
ing all grade school instructors.
Under the present wage schedule
grade teachers begin al 5000 a year and
are advanced at the rate of $50 a year
until the 5000 mark is reached. Fur
thcr advancement was impossible in the
grades unless the teacher specialized
in some particular branch Of teaching
and became qualified for other work.
This present maximum is held to he
inadequate in view of the cver-increas-
ing cost of living and it is proposed to
make the increase and have it OPP
crativc, beginning next September. The
present minimum will probably remain,
as viii the yearly rate Of advancement,
as it is the intention of the board mere
" to increase the maximum.

TO ORGANIZE UTAH
BRANCH OF SOCIETY
Steps Taken to Establish Organization
Of National Children's Home
Finding and Aid Society.

Initial steps toward the organization
of a Utah branch of the National
Children S Home Finding and Aid So
ciety were taken yesterday at a meet
ing held in the Office of Governor Will
liam Spry. j. b. Hawk Of the Idaho
branch Of the association called the
meeting. Judge Alexander McMaster
of the juvenile court, George f. Good
win, Guardcllo Brown, Anna L.. Young,
Il. 6. Carter, E. j. Milne, John X.
Hardy and Percy Martin met with Mr..
Hawk to consider his proposal.
The society has branches in thirty
two states of the union, according to
Mr. Hawk, and great good comes from
its activities in caring for homeless
children.
1t was explained TO Mr.. Hawk by the
juvenile court officials that under the
Utah juvenile court law this work is
one of the most important functions
of the juvenile court. T., j. Milne, sec
retary of the state juvenile court COM
mission, said he believed there was no
particular need for the new organiza-
tion unless arrangements could be
made TO have it operate in conjunction
With the juvenile court. Otherwise
there would be a duplication of the
work he believed.
The meeting adjourned until Satur-
day afternoon, when the same persons
will gather IN the chambers Of Judge
McMaster to consider Mr.. Hawk s plan
further.

WILL REDRAFT SMOKE
NUISANCE ORDINANCE
Regulation Which Met With Disfavor
of Property Owners Is to Be Re
drawn by City Attorney.

The smoke regulation ordinance now
before the city commission will be re-
draf fted before final action is taken on
II. After discussing the present draft
with w. II. Folland, assistant city at
torney. yesterday, Mayor Park said that
a new ordinance would bs drawn.
The present draft was drawn from a
tentative measure submitted By dele
cation OF citizens and Is modelled large
ly after the Seattle ordinance 1t pro-
vides for the creating OF q board OF ex-
aminers for firemen and engineers In
charge OF heating plants. and provides
that all fremen and engineers must pass
an examination before obta ming q license
TO follow their trade
Strenuous opposition TO the proposed
measure has been entered by owners OF
apartment houses and others who oper-
ate small heating plants. They declare
that II would work an unreasona BILE hard
ship on them 10 force them to engage an
expert engineer TO care for their plants
Members OF the city commission are
I'm doubt whether the creation OF any
such board OF examiners Will have any
apprecla bile effect on the smoke nuisance
and before passing any ordinance on the
subject they propose 10 study the ques-
lion and determine just what legislation
fits the local situation.
