TEACHER RAISE
BILL FINISHED
School Officials Draft One
Which Cannot Be Tied
Up in Courts.

Finishing touches were put on the
proposed bill carrying salary increases
for teachers and other school en-
ployes at a conference of District Of
6cials held at the District Building
yesterday afternoon.
Those participating in the confer
ence were Ernest l.. Thurston, su-
perintendent of schools; stephen T..
kramer, assistant superintendent oil
schools; r. U. Wilmarth. financial OF :
ficer of the local school system. anc
Daniel ]. Donovan, auditor for the
District.
The increases carried in the meas
ure have been agreed upon by the
school officials. teachers and en-
pIoyes, the Board of Education AMI
the committee of citizens which has
been formed to bring about better
conditions in the schools. 1t is un-
derstood that the bill generally
provide for a 80 per cent increase for
the teachers and employees. with
smaller increases for the administra-
tive officials.
Yesterdays conference was i'm
portant in that it will serve to sur
round the proposed bill with explicit
terms and in the legal phrases so
clear that there can be no question
of the intent of those directing the
matter.
If Congress should pass the meas
ure, and it should later be tied up
by court or "comptroller's' proce-
dure, it would further aggravate the
conditions in the local schools
which are due in a large measure to
low salaries. Therefore, the school
District officials are anxious that the
emergency increases be made imme-
diately available without question
just as soon as Congress approves
them.
The proposed bill is now complete
and the next step is for the school
officials to present it to the Commits
sioners for transmission to Congress.
DR.. John Van Schaick, president OF
the Board of Education, is expected
to return from New York today, and
the bill will be presented to him. He
is expected to make public the meas
ure tomorrow at the time of its
transmittal to the Commissioners.
