BETHESDA, Md, September az
Frederic p Lee. president Of the Mont
gomery County Civic Federation, de-
clared today that he Is entirely hope
full" that some solution to the county
school teachers salary problem will
be reached by the Board OF Education
and the County Commissioners despite
the statement made Saturday by
Thomas c. Darby, president Of the
Board Of Education. in which the latter
asserted that it appears impossible at
this time" to restore the salaries to
the scale paid last year.
Change Held Impossible.
Darby also had made it plain that,
In his opinion, the board could make
no wage changes because the school
budget had been drafted under the
reduced salary scale and that resolu-
tions adopted by the Civic Federation
and other organizations opposing the
wage slashes probably would not be
brought before the meeting OF his board
at Rockville on October 2.
Il have no comment to make upon
Darbys statement, other than that ]
understand that the school board has
not yet had meeting at which it could
consider the requests of the Civic Fed
Grafton and other civic bodies" Lee
said. but I am entirely hopeful that
when the matter comes before the
school board and all angles of the stu
alton are thoroughly discussed. the
school board and the county commiS-
sioners will be able to reach sound
and helpful solution.
Citizens Await Action.
Such a solution is earnestly awaited
by the large number of citizens, who
have, by their action in the civic fed
Grafton and elsewhere, expressed their
overwhelming sentiment for continuing
not merely the physical plant. but also
the Institutional facilities of the county
school system in their present high
state of efficiency"
The protests made by the civic or
ganiZationS followed the school boards
action IN suspending the schedule of
annual salary increases, and reducing
salaries to the level paid during the
1930-3l term-a reduction of Sl00 in
the salaries paid high school teachers
