FLAT SALARY
FOR PRINCIPALS
School Board Hears Sugges.
ton That New Method
Be Adopted
TO IMPROVE HIGH
SCHOOL ACOUSTICS

The question OF revising the pres
snt system of paying principals o.
the city schools was discussed b.
the Board Of Public Education II
meeting yesterday afternoon. While
no action was taken, it was inti-
mated that the subject would be
considered before the principals
contracts for the next school term
are sent out
At the present time the salaries
paid the principals vary, being bas-
ed on the number Of teachers under
each principal. Shermer II. Strad-
ley advocated a fiat salary, based on
ability.
David A. Ward, superintendent Of
schools. in his semi-monthly report
referred TO the poor acoustic prop
critics OF the High School auditorium
and recommended that they be cor
rected. DR.. Ward had the Mazer
Acoustic Company. of Philadelphia
make a survey OF the auditorium and
hey filed a report recommending the
plan followed at the Court House /
and at the Tower Hill School
The present duration Of audibil-
lty in the auditorium, II is stated,
IS about 6.5 seconds and should be
reduced to less than 2 seconds. The
cost Of the proposed improvement
will probably run from $4,000 TO
$4,000 depending upon the system,
quality and extent OF the work de-
,ided upon. No action was taken,
however.

it has been during the past few
months. Early in the season the Y

number of the players were unable
to play with the Y.
This seriously affected the associa-

games were played. Then followed
a period of unrest in athletics dur
ing which time Philip Leshem was

Chief of Children's
Bureau Speaks

Chautauqua, N. Y, June 28.-Urg-
ing her hearers to labor to reduce
needless and tragic deaths among
mothers and infants, Miss Grace Alb.
tott, Chief of the Federal Children's
Bureau of the United States Depart
ment of Labor, today addressed the
delegates to the General Federation
of Women's Clubs.
Her subject was the Sheppard-To
ner act and the responsibility of club
women in promoting the welfare of
children. After reviewing the his
tory of this Federal measure Miss Alb
bott tuhned her attention to the ex-
listing situation in various states of
the Union.
'In the first place." she said, "it is
impossible for any state to know its
own problem--when and why and
where the babies and mothers die.
until the state adequately registers
births and deaths. There are still
three states, Arizona, Nevada and
South Dakota, which have not adopted
the model law to this end and 16 9TH
ers, Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado,
Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa
Louisiana, Missouri, New Mexico
North Dakota, Oklahoma, Tennessee
Texas and West Virginia, which al
though they have adopted the model
law are still not adequately registe:
ing the birth Of children and are
therefore, not included In the Birth
Registration Area. 1t ought to be
possible for you to use the Sheppard
Towner act as a new lever in securing
the passage of model laws as we'll as
their enforcement after they are
passed.
GAS for what should be done in
your individual state there can be no
single model plan because conditions
differ so widely in our 48 states. Ev.
erywhere, however, the program will
be largely education and demonstra-
ton for mothers and prospective
mothers; their own welfare and that
of their children are of immediate
concern; without their cooperation the
program must necessarily fail. What
part the organized club movement can
take In interesting the individual
mothers will depend on local condi-
tons. Leadership in the whole mat
ter rests in most states, with the state
commissioner of health and with the
director of the child hygiene division
in the state department of health. A
good working relationship with these
officers is first requite.
at may be necessary to make quite
clear what those of US who have work
ed with you know 30 well, that the
sole interest of the women in the
Sheppard -Towner act is that it shall
fulfill the purpose for which they
urged it's passage-reduce the need
less and tragic deaths among mothers
and infants; that they desire neither
credit nor prestige for themselves or
their clubs, but that they must be able
TO say that they did what they could
toward this end.
81 hope that wherever local politics
whether medical, party or personal;
have hampered the development OF
your state health program, this new
interest. of the women in our joint un-
dertaking to reduce mortality among
mothers and babies is going to give
new backing to the merit principle in
the work"
