SCHOOL SALARY.
BILL LITTLE
CHANGED
Board of Education Denies
Nearly All Suggestions
Made by Council.

Figures on the salary pay bin for
public school employees as made
public today by the Board Of Edu-
cation, show that except in isolated
instances the board has denied every
suggestion made by the teachers
council for changes in the bin.
Those few changes which the
board wrote into the bill as the re-
suit of the teachers council recon-
mendations 4 ERE almost solely for
the purpose Of clarifying defuddled
classifications. In but four Of five
instances were pay changes adopted
and these changes were for the
lowest paid school employees.
Final consideration Of the bill was
postponed upon objection OF Capt.
julius !. Peyser, who said that he
wished to scrutini1e every single
item In the bin before he placed
his stamp Of approval upon It.
The board agreed that a public
hearing on the bill should he held
Monday night At that time the
