LNN|T I
Dissatisfaction Prevails at
Terms Of Board Of Educa-
tons Salary Bill.

Dissatisfied with the provisions
Of the board Of education's teachers
salary BILL. the teachers in both
the elementary and high schools
will insist that the board incor-
porate into the bin before it is sent
to Congress. the salary limits sought
in the teachers own bill last June.
The pay limits In the present bill
are considerably less than those in
the bill drafted by the teachers.
The teachers bill sets e pay of
$500 as q maximum for grade
schools, while that of the new bill
is $4,000. For high school teachers
the pay is limited to 81 400, whereas
the teachers ask $4,000.
The teachers also seek to have
the wording of the bill so changed
that there will be no question about
the bonus and they want kinder
garten teachers grouped with other
elementary grade teachers. These
recommendations and others will be
presented tonight at q special meet
ing in the Franklin school.

leads to the conclusion that the
