HIGHER SALARIES FOR TEACHERS.

Teachers must be paid double their present
salaries and a minimum average of $1,000
reached within the next fifteen years if school
standards are to be maintained, according to DIR.
P. P. Claxton, United States commissioner of ed
ucation.
"The increase recommended may seem large"
DR. Claxton says, "but in fact it is not 1t would
in most states mean range of salaries from ST.
900 to $4,000. No one who is unworthy of this
minimum salary is fitted to do this work.
DR.. Claxton urges policy of doubling the av-
erage salary of teachers within the next five
years and adding not less than SO per cent within
the ten years following the expiration of this pc
Rod, which at the end of fifteen years would
bring the average minimum salary to $1,000,
about one and one-half times larger than they
receive at present.
There is sound logic in DIR. Claxton's sugges-
ton. Teachers have never been remunerated in
accordance with the Importance of their work.
AS consequence many of the most efficient
have sought more highly paid positions in other
lines. Unless the scale of pay is increased the
standard of instruction must necessarily fall, to
the serious detriment of the country's future.
