TEACHERS BACK
SCHOOLBOARD
Raise Objection at Meeting
To Be Included in U. S.
Redistribution.

Smooth relations between the
Washington school administration
and the teachers were Increasingly
evident at meeting Of the Teach
ers' Council. composed of represent
atives of all teachers organizations,
with the Board OF Education In the
Franklin School yesterday
The teachers protested almost
unanimously at the meeting against
being included in the report Of the
Joint Congressional Committee for
Reclassification of Government Sal
aries. Superintendent of Schools
Frank w. Ballou was authorized by
the meeting to communicate with
Congressional committees in charge
of reclassification legislation and to
report back to the council next
Wednesday.
The motion which prompted this
action was made by George r. Ross,
OF Central High School. The chief
objection of the teachers to being
included in the reclassification re-
port was expressed by Mrs. Lola
Hutchens.. of Central High School
representing the High School Teach
ers' Union.
The basis of reclassification Is
essentially a business basis and not
an educational one," she said. ''It
would be harmful to the school sys-
tenn and is not satisfactory 20 the
teachers in any way"
The teachers also contended their
work was wholly different from that
required of government workers
Even at that, 1t was said, the re-
classification commission set for
teachers practically the same salary
scale which had been adopted for
government clerks. TA teachers
pointed out that the qualifications
for their positions were greater than
those required of an applicant for a
government clerkship.

task OF guiding the destinies OF this

seems a pity that a man OF such
proven ability and with such a
traditions and present day duties
should be allowed to remain In pri-
vate life simply because he will not
knuckle down to a certain set of poll
ticians who appear to control the
nominating machinery In both parties.
There is still plenty Of time before
the national conventions are held. Mr..
Hoover has announced himself as an
independent progressive" Before the
war brought about such great changes
he was a progressive Republican. If
the Republican party is wise It will
give Mr.. Hoover's name The considera-
ton 1t deserves in connection with the
nomination. 1t Is becoming more and
more apparent that If the Republicans
do not nominate him the Democrats
will. In that case the Republicans
will have turned q certain victory in
to one of doubt. There is no question
that thousands OF people who are sick
of the constant partisan strife at
Washington are turning more and
more to Hoover as the man who
comes nearest their ideal for the ma
tons head during the next foul years.
