NEW PLAN HEARD
ON SALARIES
Suggested That Counties Have
Boards to Fix the Pay of
Teachers Hereafter

Legislators and teachers who have
been coming in from all sections of
the state to discuss the proposition for
using the Woodruff minimum salary
bill as q basis, were interested today in
brand new suggestion for bringing
about more advantageous salaries for
rural teachers. AS far as the teachers
in the cities are concerned their affairs
are getting we'll in hand. but the small
er districts present a problem.
The idea suggested is for a teachers
salary board for counties to have au-
thorty to adjust salaries in third and
fourth class districts. This board is
suggested to consist of three citizens,
who would be selected by the governor
or superintendent of public instruction.
men of affairs and knowledge of local
conditions who would serve without
pay and fix the sum to be paid. In this
way townships which have the same
resources and which have different
salary lists would be required to give
the teachers a better deal. The state
would pay fifty per cent for instance,
and the school directors be obliged to
raise the other half of the salary. The
more people have gone into the problem
the more they have been impressed
with the necessity of reaching some
plan which will even up conditions in
districts IN the same county.
The teachers coming here have been
working for months on the matter and
a mass of data showing just how di-
rectors handle the finances TO the de-
teriment of the educators has been pre-
pared. In all probability a determined
effort will be made to have the Palmer
minimum salary bill acted upon by the
House committee on education. The
Woodruff bill embodies the teachers
ideas and they are inclined to insist
upon it.
Another county matter which is as
suming proportions is the administra-
tion measure providing for return of
half the personal property tax to the
state. The counties now keep all they
raise. Some of the legislators have re-
ceived word that delegations of officials
are coming here to protest, holding
that if the bill passes they will have to
increase county taxes to make ends
meet. State officials, on the other hand,
contend that state interests in the re-
turns of personal property tax will re-
suit in assessors being made TO toe the
mark in matter of valuations.
