Raleigh, July 19-Whether or not
the $4,000 school teachers in the State
get 10 per cent increase in salaries
this coming year, as now seems pos
sible, depends very largely upon whe-
ther Governor J. G. B. Ehringhaus
asks the State. School Commission to
boost salaries by that amount, accord
ing to prevailing opinion here. And
while Governor Ehringhaus is in
Morehead City today, inspecting the
National Guard troops now there at
Camp Glenn, the belief here is that
he will recommend the increase of 10
per cent for all the teachers in the
State this coming year.
If such an increase is recommended
by the Governor, it will he based large
ly on hope that the Federal govern
ment, through the Federal Emergency
Relief Administration, will award
North Carolina the difference between
it's present salary budget for teachers
of approximately $13,000,0O0 and what
it will amount to if increased 10 per

1.-The German struggle will de-
velop into battle between industrial

true of France and Spain a1so.)
2.-The American strikes are caused
by an endeavor of 1ndustrialists to
prevent the svread of unionization-
and, unless the government backs
union men more strongly than it has
whether rightly or wrongly, it will
be a long drawn out affair. Already
more blood has been svilled than in
