TEACHERS NOT AT
EDUCATORS MERCY

President Samuel II Baynard. OF
the Board Of Education. explained to
a reporter Of THE EVENING JOUR-
NAL this morning why the appoint
mente OF the teachers in the public
schools were left IN blank, 10 which a
number OF the teachers Of the schools
had objected at their meeting on
Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Baynard said
that the delay in fixing the salaries
was due to the fact that the Board OF
Education wished TO first determine
whether the board could legally grant
the teachers the increase they ask
for
committee Of the teachers an
peared before the Board of Education
several weeks ago and asked TO have
their salaries increased OH a full basis
under the classification plan. instead
on seventeenth basis as could be
done only under the increase granted
by Council with the expectation that
they would get further increase IN
January
Al that time Mr Baynard. as he ex-
planned this morning, said that the
board could not grant the request un.
Gil they had learned whether they
could legally do so. The appointments
therefore, he explained were left in
blank on The salary question. so that
The board could grant the request af-
ter they had determined that they
could do SO legally
Mr.. Baynard said the teachers
however. do not seem to understand

appointments leave them a. the mer-
as Of the board MIR Baynard said
the idea was erroneous.
