NORMAL TEACHERS
 WILL GET RAISES
25 PER CENT INCREASE
Tn Salaries of Faculty Members is Authorized by Board at Meeting
 Held Monday.

An increase of 25 per cent in the salary budget of the Arkansas State Normal School was authorized by the board of trustees at a meeting held in Little Rock Monday afternoon. The increased salaries of the teachers will become effective for the fiscal year Eeginning July next.
 The faculty members will not all get exactly 2 per cent additions to their salaries, Pres. E. ". Torreyson explained today, and no actual deficit will be created in order to pay the in- creased compensation. There is an unappropriated fund of several thou sand dollars in the state treasury be- longing to the Normal This fund can- not be drawn upon until an appropria- tion is made by the legislature, but as it can be used for no other purpose 1t is of course anticipated that the legislature will pass the necessary ap- propriation bill when 1t convenes. The unappropriated balance will be suf- ficient to add 25 per cent to the sal ary budget for one year ending June 30, 1921. For the biennial period be- ginning on that date the Normal board will ask the legislature to increase it's millage tax from one-ninth to two ninths mills.
 Part of the increase allowed by the board in the salary budget will prob ably be used to employ additional teachers needed in over-crowded de- partments, President Torreyson said, so that the increases of the present staff will probably not average % per cent. The board authorized an in- crease not to exceed that percentage and directed the president to make out schedule of salaries for the next year and submit it to the board for approval.
 The board also granted salary in- creases to Col. H. L. McAlister of the extension department and Mrs. w. o. Wilson, librarian. These two mem bers of the faculty through an over sight were not given raises when the pay of the other members were re- adjusted at the beginning of the pres ent session.
 An allowance of $500 for the pur- chase of athletic equipment was also granted by the board
 Every member of the board was in attendance, those present being, State Superintendent J. L. Bond, chairman State Treasurer Joe Ferguson, State Auditor Hogan Oliver. Jo Frauenthal and L. s. Dunaway of Conway, A. l.. Hutchins of Augusta and w. E. Lemon of Little Rock
