SCHOOL OFFICIALS
STUDY FUND PLAN
Secretary Dick Says Board
Could Not Raise Money for
Teachers Rise
HEAVY COSTS ARE CITED

Although the figures in the report on
the finances of the Board of Education
submitted by William II. Welcker. pub
lie accountant. TO the Allied Association
of Public School Employees, are essen
italy correct. the deductions as well
as the figures themselves need more
careful analysis, according to explana-
tions offered by William A. Dick. sec
rotary Of the Board Of Education.
Mr.. Welcker attempted to show more
than 81 .000. 900 is available in the form
Of a loan for an immediate fat increase
in all teachers salaries.
In the report Mr.. Welcker stated
that during the last four years 81 .271.
.sS had been appropriated from cur
snt funds to equipment, land and
snldings. These appropriations were
.hrrect. said Mr.. Dick, but he added.
during the four years S238.OO0 was
transferred to teacher $ salaries. $140.
600 to maintenance, and 800 200 to the
loan account TO carry for six months
the new $1,000. 900 permanent loan.
While the policy of charging equip
ment against current revenue was oues-
toned BY Mr.. Welcker il has been the
practice of the board to use the current
funds for this purpose, Mr.. Dick said
The sale of properties mentioned in
Mr.. Welcker's report and taken from
the annual report of the boards secre-
tary could not be effected Immediately,
even II the board considered Il wise to
dispose of them. Mr.. Dick said. Fur
thermore. he questioned the sagacity of
disposiug of certain properties which
are now being used for storage purpose
and office space and other which, al
though temporarily idle, may be used
in the future.
The borrowing capacity ofDthe board
amounting to SO. .736. 6.S26. was also an =
other source which Mr.. Welcker found
for supplying immediate funds for the
increase of teachers salaries. NSo far
81 100000 of this amount has been
called on for current expenses and the
amount available on this fund at the
end of June is dependent on the amount
received by the board from taxes.
Even though the end of June should
find large amount of this borrowing
capacity intact. it was pointed out by
the secretary's office. funds would not
necessarily be- available for an emer
gency bonus without impairing the Dor d.
rowing capacity needed to carry cur
rent expenses IcXt year.

RAPS PUBLISHERS
FOR PAPER CRISIS
Senate Witness BIames Lack
Of Understanding With
Manufacturers
WOULD LIMIT ADVERTISING
BY the Associated Press

Washington. April 29.-Lack of sat =
isfactory understanding between pub
fishers and PRINT paper manufacturers
was held responsible in part for the
present paper shortage by Paul Patter-
son. one Of the publishers of the Balti-
more Sun. in testimony today before
the Senate manufacturers subcommit =
tee investigating the paper situation.
Mr.. Patterson said that while there
would be increased production this
year. production in 1921 would be
10000 tons over that for 1920. The
present shortage. he explained. resulted
from Increased consumption beyond the
capacity of the paper mills.
Saying that increased prices for paper
W"r" necessary about three years ago.
the witness asserted that producers
failed to take the publishers into their
confidence at that time. with the re-
suit thar an agitation was started
against increased prices and for public
control OF the paper industry. Also. he
said. the manufacturers failed to eX
pand their plants. due to lack of under.
standing between them and the ,,lb
fishers.
Then you think the position taken
by the newspaper publishers was II
mistake" Chairman Reed, Of the sub
ronmitt"" asked
Yes. was the reply. 1T was n
lack of understanding between them and
also lack of proper pubIrity."
As result of this situation, MIR.
Patterson said. when the publishers
cam" I" renew their paper contracts this
year insufficient paper to meet demands
waS discovered. so that they entered
1h2o with shortage of paper on
every hand.
Mr.. Patterson expressed the belief
that the 'univcrsal practice Of rurtail-
m"nt in III" use Of paper" which he
said was being observed by the urwS-
papers. would result in "a marked Of
feet on the market by fall"
Newspapers. hr said. are prarticing
various methods 10 meet the paper stu.
alton, including the limiting of the size
of the papers.
But nothing effective can BE- ac-
complish"d unless there is a definite
curtailmrnt in the amount of ADVERTISE
mcnts, he said, and the only way
that can be done is to increase advcr-
tising rateS-nOt for the purpo>" of in D.
Cr"asing revenues. but 10 hold down the
amount of advertising
