Plan Wage Cut for Teachers in Chicago

SUPERINTENDENT WILLIAM Nc.
~ ANDREW has drawn up a new
salary schedule for teachers which he
has presented to the board of educa-
ton. :"
The schedule has not as yet been
adopted by the school board because
Of the greater financial burden it
would place on its already depleted
treasury. Consequently deductions
were formed and stories began to cir
culate that the schedule calls for an
increase in teachers salaries. In that
role 1t is being exploited by Mean
drew and his whole retinue of boost
ers from the Chicago Tribune, the
mouthpiece Of big business, to the
civic clubs with their representatives
OF big business, the very same bust
ness interests which imported Nc
Andrew to Chicago to do their bidding
on the school board.
The hypocritical arguments adyan.
ced by McAndrew and echoed by this
group is that teachers salaries must
be raised to meet the higher cost of
living. McAndrew takes on the role
Of champion Of the teachers cause.
McAndrew, who has robbed the teach
ers Of their councils, who has denied
them the right to receive notices OF
their federation meetings, who has
burdened them with rules that harrass
them at every turn, dons the cloak of
teachers benefactor and goes forth
begging for more humane eonsidera
ton of the teachers needs.
VIII He Get Away With Il?
Already McAndrew has succeeded
in causing the division in the teach
ers ranks which he is working for
and the principals take the position
Of boosting the schedule disregardine
entirely the fact that by this move
they are placing themselves on record
of favoring a cut in wages for the
large bulk of teachers. He has useC
them to work upon the mayor of Chi
cago and upon various organizations
getting them to write letters and t.
make personal calls to talk up tn,

promises of fatter envelopes at the
end of each month, the teachers will
be greeted with the direct opposite,
cut in wages. These figures show
that the various divisions Of teachers
will be given a direct cut in wages
until the seventh year of teaching
when there are recommendations for
an increase. In other words the
money will be taken from one divi-
sion to be given to another. For this
increase other changes in the school
system will be affected. For instance
the size of classes will be increased
and that change will affect all teach
ers, those receiving a cut in wages
favored with an increase. These econ
omies will help increase the salaries
Of small aristocracy Of the staff,
thus creating division of interests.
There are 1884 teachers in the
Chicago schools. Out of this group
there are 1902 elementary teachers,
266 elementary principals, and 2,466
high school teachers. If the proposed
McAndrew schedule is adopted by the
board of education it means that, the
large bulk of teachers will have their
wages locked and in many cases a
very serious cut in wages as will be
seen from only a glance at the tables
which we reprint at the end of this

notes that this September the level
OF employment is also per cent over

sion of $1,000 before the excited eyes
of underpaid jewelry clerks who will
feel authorized to use their guns in
crowded stores, not only against rob

The temptation to save life and
catch the supposed robber will be just
one-fourth as strong. The same is
true Of the police or deputies who will
get only $3.50 for possibly risking
their lives in making arrests but will
get $1,000 for risking the lives of the
public or of possibly innocent sus-
poets.
