SCHOOL TEACHERS IN ENGLAND
MAY STRIKE

A special convention of the National
Union of Teachers held few days ago
at Birmingham passed resolutions call
ing for 100 per cent increase of salaries
above the pre-war rates.
The teachers were disconnected with
the recommendations of the joint COM
mittee appointed by the government.
The chairman declared that if the joint
committee offered a minimum of less
than $1,000 it "would find that it had
put it's fingers into a hornets nest
and the whole profession would be up
in arms"
The use of the strike weapon as a
last resort was advocated by various
speakers, and it was also suggested
parents should be warned to keep their
children out of the profession, failing a
satisfactory increase.

CONNECTICUT
NEXT TO RATIFY
SUFFRAGE
Special Delegations Make
Deep Impression Upon
Governor

Vermont and Connecticut are
now the only New England States
where there is doubt as to the out
come of the national Suffrage Amend
ment. There is little doubt that
Maine and Rhode Island will ratify
the amendment. New Hampshire and
Massachusetts have already ratified.
And it begins to look as if Vermont
was soon to be the lone "stand- offish''
state.
A deputation of Connecticut Sena-
tors and Representatives called upon
Gov. Marcus H. Holcomb and urged
that he call Special Session to rat
ify the Federal Suffrage Amendment,
both Republicans and Democrats be-
ing represented.
Following. this deputation of law
makers, a group of prominent Repub-
lican men from all parts of the state
formed a second deputation received
by the Governor on behalf OF a
Special Session.
The first deputation bore petition
signed by 178 members of the legis-
lature, Senators and Representatives
of both major parties, including the
President of the Senate, setting forth
their earnest desire to see Connect
cut take it's place among the states
that are in favor of including their
womenfolk among the voting citizen
ship.
This position sows that the passage
of the Amendment in Connecticut is
merely a matter of form for the
signatures represented more than a
majority in either House. It is rea-
sonable to suppose that the percen-
tages in both houses will be increas-
ed as the number of the legislators
feel favorable toward the Amendment
if not toward a Special Session.
Judge L. w. Cleveland, spokesman
for the Republican demonstration
called the Governors attention par
ticularly to the strong pro-suffrage
stand of the Republican party and its
desire for the speedy ratification of
the Amendment.
This overwhelming sentiment for
suffrage in Connecticut gives promise
of lifting that state out Of the ranks
of the doubtfuls and leaving only
Vermont unrepresented.

PRESS COMMENT
Spelling a Neglected Study
Barre Times)

A summer resident in Greensboro
has offered prize to the pupil in the
village school who shows the greatest
advancement in the ability to spell.
Those who can spell perfectly now
will, of course, have no chance to win
the prize; but we suspect that all the
pupils of the Greensboro school will
have a chance to get the prize. Any
way, if they are like the pupils in the
public schools of 246 other cities and
towns of Vermont, they will be eligi-
BILE to compete and have a chance to
win the prize. Spelling is one of the
most neglected studies in nearly all
our. public schools.

St. Johsbury's P. o. Appropriation
Barre Times)
In view of the fact that the esti-
mated cost of federal buildings al
most always exceeds the appropria-
ton secured from Congress for any
specified town, the discrepancy of
$4,000 in the St. Johnsbury job is
not to be wondered at. Indeed, one
would be inclined to think that the
balance of estimated cost over the
appropriation would be considerably
more than that. But Congress has
been known to increase such appro-
priations, and St. Johnsbury people
should not feel discouraged over the
present situation.
