increase Where Increases Are Due

lIncTcGSc " mere INCREASES are DEc
THE TIAlES-DISrATCH stands i'm
movably back Of the demand for
the payment OF decent salaries to
Richmond's public school teachers.
1t has said many times. ana repeats il
now. that Il competent teaching corps
is dependent upon living wages, and
the money to pay such wages must be
found. 1t is malterably opposed to
an increase in the teacher load that
would impair the efficiency of the
present admirable system, and if a
special levy be necessary for the MAIN
tenance OF the schools, then it be-
lievcs that the people of Richmond
will pay it ungrudgingly, unfortunate
as an additional financial burden
would be in this time of business
stress.
But before Council shall act upon
the demands Of the teachers it will be

Here are other figures to show tho
top-heavy pay roll; The director Of
music receives $242 month. He
would be increased to $500. The III
rector Of physical instruction receives
$242. He, too, would be increased to
$3.50. The director Of penmanship
now receives 1868 IL month for tue
day and night schools, and he would
be raised to S535.20. a salary larger

ing $125 month would be raised to
$50; clerk and supervisor from
$291.67 TO S333.33 an assistant clerk
from $1S3.33 to $20S.33. The medi.a
director would receive $500 month
instead of $3.50. \ similar scale of
increases runs through the list of
plasterers, bricklayers. timers. pipe
filters. painters. plumbers, locksmiths,
carpenters, clockSmiths, c a b i II c t
makers. truck drivers and store
keepers.
II will be we'll for the public to re-
member these figures taken from the
present and the proposed pay rolls.
Surely they do not represent starva-
ton wages. But the public should not
forget that the elementary school
teachers and they are the ones upon
whom in the final analysis the schools
depend, the ones who have the guild
ance of our children during their
formative stages-are reccivn in
many instances. wages So Eliserly that
they barely serve to keep body and
soul together. These are the teach
ers for whom tia public is demanding
decent living wages, wages that will
enable them 70 tive in = degree Of
mond and improve their service, The
public. we take it, is not interested 3t
this particular time, when living costs
are declining. in increases for school
employees who already arc we'll paid
Certainly The Times-Dispatch is net.
Council. we know, will take Ill Of
this into consideration. By insisting
that the School Board readjust it's
pay roll, eliminate the increases at the
top of the list and bring the grossly
underpaid teachers up to Il living
standard, it is evident that many
thousands of dollars can be deducted
from the proposed pay roll with in
Justice to no one. Indeed, it is not
improbable that with such j readjust-
ment,. and with proper economy,
Council, out of the money already At
its command, will be able to appro-
pirate sufficient funds to the schools
without burdening the city with addi-
tional taxation. This is ii period Of
rcadjuStment, when due care should
be exercised. There must be no
cheese-paring in our treatment Of the
teachers, but neither should we pro-
coed TO Il blanket increase Of wages
without determining that it is neces-
sary. Wages should not be increased
where the need is not apparent.
