Teachers Salaries.

The law as l understood it had not
been changed as to the salaries to be
paid the teachers but to be sure about
it I wrote Superintendent Swearinger
on the subject and the following is
his reply:
Columbia, April II, 1921.
Supt. E. H. Aull,
Newoelry, S. C.
Dear Colonel:
This is to acknowledge your lctte,
of April 10th concerning the teach
ers' examination and teachers sala-
ries in equalizing districts for the
Scholastic year 1922.
The fixing of teachers salaries is
the prerogative of district trustees.
| do not think the schedule outlined
in the law is one bit too high. If
South Carolina is to retain good
teachers she cannot afford to fall be-
low this modest schedule.
The Legislature has never appro-
priated enough money to make up
the deficiency arising from the use of
this schedule. Some trustees have
abused the law by straining its pro-

Newberry county has paid its
teachers during this school year pref
ty promptly. Of course in few dis
tricts where it was largely matter
of state aid and the state aid not be-
inc available on account Of postpone
ment in paying tax until about the
last or middle of May, it has been
necessary to ask the teachers to walt
for part of the pay, but in the others
the pay has been prompt and l feel
that we should be congratulated.
Now, however, we may have to ask all
the teachers to wait for a week or ten
days or possibly until the tax books
close. So if some of the teache-o do
not receive their checks promptly
hope they will bear with US. The
fact is we are not going to approve
anv more claims for little while, at
least not until the county treasury Is
rep}enished. But all teachers will be
paid before the closing of the books
in June.

TOTTENVILLE, June 23.-Magis~
trate Fetherston in the second dis
trict yesterday held Leo Laudati of
Huguenot Park. in $500 bail for a
hearing a week from today, June 80.
Bail was again furnished.
Laudati was arrested Tuesday af-
ternoon following a raid on his place
by detectives of the eighth inspection
district when two barrels of wine,
six jugs of the same liquor, two bot
ties of cognac, a demijohn of aniset
and two bottles of some other liquor
was seized.
Laudati claims that the wine and
liquor was for his own use. The ar
rest was made following a complaint
that he was selling it to people in
the bungalow section at Huguenot
Park Laudati has been in trouble
before. Six years & he tried to
open a saloon in Prince Bay, and
residents of that place to prevent him
from having the place there estab-
lished a church on the adjoining
property over night,
Then to get even Laudati erected
a high board fence. This was chop
ped down during the night. He again
erected the fence and 1t was again
chopped down. A reward of $500
failed to bring forward anyone who
did it. Laudati then moved to Hugue-
not Park where he has conducted a
licensed hack business. He resided
in the former Cannon hotel at the
railroad station.

JOb-SEEkERS
OUT OF.LUCk'
Edge and FreIinghuysen Are
Unable to Place All Max
ing Application
BY GEORGE II. MANNING.
washington Correspondent of the
Perth Amboy Evening News.)

WASHINGTON, June 23.-Hun-
dreds of New Jersey men and wom-
en- seeking federal position in WASH
ington are due to get disappointed.
This is the situation here as devel-
oped by Senators Edge and Freling-
huysen who have been trying to OBJ
tain jobs in the departments here
for hundreds of Jersey men and
women who have applied for every
variety of federal position. The dis
appointment of the senators appears
to be as keen as that of their many
constituents who have applications
on file here.
The three principal reasons for
the impossibility of satisfying the
desires of the officeseekers are:
Approximately IS per cent. of the
government jobs of all classes come
under civil service rules and those
holding the places cannot be ousted
without good cause to make way for
for newcomers.
The departments are discharging
hundreds of employees of all kinds
each week, and will put thousands
off the payroll on June 80, the close
Of the fiscal year.
There are 95 other senators,
equally as anxious to get jobs for
tiVii litiibS VI lott1IihS SiiPios
es slated for removal.
Instead of going into the subject
in haphazard fashion, Senator Edge
recently took up with the heads of
the executive departments and with
many of their subordinates the
question OF actual openings or pos
sibilities in their respective bureaus,
inquiring as to actual conditions.
There reaslly isn't anything at
all in my department, as everyone
is under the civil service" said
Postmaster General Will Hays, with
whom Senator Edge is on most
friendly terms.
You know, of course" said Sec
rotary James J. Davis of Labor,
that on June 80 between 10000 and
10000 persons will be separated
from the federal service, and nearly
all Of them come from exempt
rolls. These places were created
during the war and are now being
terminated. There isn't anything
available outside the classified SER
vice now"
Equally discouraging vas Secre-
tary of Commerce Herbert Hoover,
who explained to Senator Edge:
There are no clerical positions in
my department from the $4,000 to
$4,000 class outside of civil service,
and this covers practically all the
places below the presidential
grade"
And right here it may he stated
that $4,000 Ices not go very far to-
wards meeting the living demands
in Washington. One may squeeze
through on $500, but its's a pretty
tight squeeze, and even $4,000 jobs
are considered plums in the govern
ment service.
AS a senator, Albert B. Fall, of
New Mexico. sought his share of
patronage pie; as Secretary of the
Interior he tells Senator Edge there
isn't much chance of getting pastry.
practically all the clerical posi-
tons in my department are under
the civil service" said Secretary
Fall, land so far as 1 know there are
non that pay over $500 a year.
There are some positions for assist
ant attorneys. and it is possible one
or more vacancies may occur there,
but for these places we would need
competent attorneys"
