RAISE OR WALKOUT,
TEACHERS THREAT
City Faces S20,000,000 Bill if
1880 Instructors Get
Equal Pay.
DELAY ASKED BY HYLAN
Tax Rate Gain Shown Under
Lockwood Measure Women
Are UNFOLDING.

At the hearing before Mayor Hylan
on the Lockwood-Fertig teachers equal
pay bill It was asserted It would cost
the city 100000 in the next three
years and would increase the tax rate
between 10 and 30 points. This would
raise the 1850 women teachers in the
elementary schools to the salary re-
ceived by the 500 male teachers In
those schools. II would be better to
retire these men or to promote these
men to Junior high schools, said John
b. Cottrell. president Of the Elementary
School Mems League, who headed a
vigorous opposition TO the measure.
Mayor Hylan has indicated his OPP
position TO the Legislature attempting
to raise salaries of teachers here. but
he made no statement as to what he
would do with the Lockwood bill. He
did ask the teachers II they could not
wait until the city could hnd where
they could get the money to increase
salaries, but the reply was that the time
to put It in practice was now.
'rhe city OF New York is facing a
walkout of 1880 women elementary
school teachers II you veto this bill"
declared Harriet A. Upper. principal
Of Public School No. lis. They viii
seek other and more lucrative occupa-
lions"
DO you mean that the teachers are
going on a striker asked the Mayor.
The answer was lost in rear OF
laughter.
Hitherto In trying to get our salaries
raised" said Miss Clara c. Caulkins
principal of No. 6. "the women nave
been Disseminated against because OF
their sex. To-day We have got a vote.
Instead of welding a club stuffed with
feathers we are swinging one filled with
iron"
This bill provides that two groups OF
teachers shall have increases In salary
amounting to probably S12,000.0o0 ultl-
mately," argued DIR. Cottrell, and that
dozen groups shall have no increase
would not be here In opposition to this
measure II the bill were drawn to meet
the present economic conditions, the 100
per cent. increase in the cost OF living
to everybody and especially multiplied
for the heads OF families. This bill
makes no pretence of meeting these con-
ditions. Neither would be here IL the
bill were drawn to meet the law OF sup
ply and demand. The number OF men
teachers In the elementary schools has
decreased in the last seven years from
1880 to $50. The women teachers have
increased from 1880 to 1880"

II every person in the United States

mean that at night the people would
be just five million dollars richer. And
then suppose the people kept this up
for one month? 1t would mean that
at the end of thirty days they would

lion dollars.
Why not keep 1t up for the rest Of

billion five hundred million dollars.
Sounds like lot Of work for one little
nickel to do. doesn't 1t, yet there are
scores OF industries in the United

Committee for Seventh s.'ict and
Vice Director for Illinois.
Thrift will be taught I'm the schools
of the states constituting the Seventh
federal reserve district.
The children of Iowa will aelp pre-
pare the Little Lessons In Thrift which
are being written by Prof. Macy Camp
bell of the Iowa State Teachers col
lege, under the general direction OF an
educational committee of the district.
Besides the chairman the educational
committee consists OF w. +. Larson,
department Of public instruction, Wis
consIn; J. V. McNaly. Detroit public
schools. Michigan, and Macy Campbell,
Iowa State Teachers college.
The Little Lessons in Thrift appear
fortnightly on printed sheets. The les
sons are prepared for the different
grades In the schools. They are Illus
trated and interesting They teach
savings rs a phase of good citizenship,
give problems OF arithmetic I'm terms OF
thrift stamps, chewing gum. candy
and other things a child buys.
1t Is a new field which Is thus being
opened up and the war savings organ
lzation is rendering a great service to
the rising generation. Nor Is il all
mere theory. The teaching Of the prin-
ciples OF thrift is combined with sort
OF manual training in thrift, through
the sale of War Savings Stamps In
schools.
Along with these Little Lessons in
Thrift the educational committee fur
nishes the schools with pupils thrift
cards, on which the teacher keeps an
account of the amount. however small,
which the pupil brings to her for the
purpose OF buying stamps. This prac-
tice itself becomes educational. be-
cause the pupil gets introduced to
simple bookkeeping and banking.
These plans have received the hear
tiest cooperation Of the school admin
lstration In the various states and
cities. The parOchial and private
schools also are cooperating In the use
of the material and plans prepared by
the committee.
The young men and women Of the
next generation will have higher re-
spect for thrift and better under
standing as to how to spend their
money, for they will learn even In the
primary grades that thrift Is not mlser-
illness but way of spending money so
as to make IL for them.
