West End Citizens Reaffirm
Stand Demanding IN
crease in Pay.

The West End Citizens Association
reaff1rmed it's stand on demanding an
increase of pay for the school teachers
of the District of Columbia at a meeting
last night at the Concordia Lutheran
Church, goth and G streets northwest
A resolution to this effect was intro
duced by DIR. M. F. Finley and unani-
mously adopted.
The resolution further stated that a
salary increase for the teachers was
much needed act Of justice and an
incentive to attract and hold capable
and competent teachers. The most
forctble argument. it was stated.
that could be advanced to fortify the
request was that the moral tone of
any community Is dependent upon
its schools, and that the teachers
make the schools what they are.
Compulsory Attendance Urged.
Another resolution introduced by
DR.. Finley was adopted, which
urged the bills before Congress in
for compulsory school attendance
legislation and the free use of text
books and school supplies in the

lutions were asked to be sent the
committees of Congress. the Com
Citizens Associations.
A report was read by Judge H. Ran
dali Webb on the subject of national
representation for the residents of
the District of Columbia. Judge
Webb read the gist OF an article In the
Star of March I, In which the .princd-
pies embodied in the resolution intro
duced by Senator Jones of Washington
were set forth. After the reading Of
the report in which Judge Webb stat
ed that the plan of representation in
Congress was the only feasible one,
he stated that copies of the Jones res
olution should be procured and read
by every member of the association.
1t was announced by the secretary
that copies of the Jones resolution
would be procured and distributed at
the next meeting,
A communication was read from the
Commissioners calling the attention
OF the association to Cleanup and
Paint-up week. April 3 to April 10, in
elusive.
