The increases granted the substi-

An appeal to the Board Of Education
to suspend immedia tely the new wage
scale recently put into effect for sub
stitute teachers Is contained in reso-
lutions adopted by the Teachers Coun-
Gil, at a special meeting last night in
the Franklin School. The resolutions
pointed out that the increases granted
the substitutes are inconsistent, and
work hardship on the regular
teachers.
The council also decided to ask the
board to meet with 1t with a view to
working out a satisfactory substt-
a committee Of the council will draft
a substitute salary scale for submis-
sion at the joint meeting.
Many Enter Discussion.
The councils action came at the
close of a two and one-half hour dis
cussion Of the new substitute pay
schedule which was modified slightly
by the School Board Wednesday as a
result of the protest of the teachers
unions. Those who took leading part
In the discussions were Mrs. Edith c.
