Governor Urges Increase in School
Funds Particularly Naming the
Salaries of Teachers
SPEECH LOUDLY APPLAuDED

Governor Ehringhaus. laid his re-
Communications for the next biennum
before the members of the General
Assembly at meeting of that body
in Raleigh last Thursday night.
The message received prolonged
applause at its conclusion and high
Individual praise in both administra-
ton. and anto-administration circles
but the governor was not interrupted
q single time during its delivery.
The burden of the message was in
creased appropriations in state func-
tions generally, with emphasis on
schools, but only within the bounds
of balanced budget.
"Decency as well as desserts" de-
mand increased salaries for school
teachers and other state employees,
the governor told the assemblymen.
Reserving specific reference to fl
nances for his budget message Gov
,ernor Ehringhaus did not mention the
three per cent sales tax by name but
defended it's enaction two years ago
with the statement that: even hind
sight has failed to point better way
than that adopted in 1888" He also
made reference to ga new and un-
popular tax"
Noting that we are "still under the
shadow Of the great depression" and
that there is still imperative neces-
sity for cautious spending and the
avoidance of rash commitments" the
governor observed that he sensed a
changed situation from that which
faced the 1888 legislature.
High lights in the message in
cluded:
"We need and must have substan-
tial increase in our appropriation for
schools"
Teachers salaries as well as other
salaries are at much too low level"
Today, in answer to the demands
Of decency as well as desserts, the
great necessity is for an increased
wage and provision all along the line
and for as rapid and near approach to
pre-depression levels as our circum-
stances and sound fiscal policy per-
nit"
"We should pay adequate salaries
not for the benefit of teachers,
to secure for the children the best in
struction available"
"We should be careful to see that
Justice is done our negro citizenship
Tin the provision of schools)."
s'It is my earnest desire that at the
earliest practical moment we adopt
"a policy of school book rentals,
which can be developed gradually to
provide ultimately free text books for
all children"
sour response Ito the needs) OF. the
higher institutions of learning and
charitable and correctional institu-
tions should be limited only by the
necessity of preserving balanced
budget, without which all activities
would collapse, and the ability of
our people to bear increased tax
levies."

diversion of highway funds now as
during the last general assembly"
Highways and schools are, or
should be, co-ordinated activities and
each, in very real sense, is DEEPEN

Wheat closed is to IA cents

Failure of the Liverpool market

Week in Review

Utility and railroad stocks led a
recovery on the Stock Exchange
during the last week. Commodities
rallied and the dollar fluctuated err
ratically in foreign exchange units
Dollar changes reflected uncer-
tainty in foreign countries and
were only moderately affected by
domestic affairs. which included an
increasing tendency toward infla-
tiOnary projects Belgian belgas

Of devaluation of that unit and
breakup of the gold bloc through
general exodus from gold. The
pound sterling rose as the belga fell.
Gold bloc units lost ground.
War possibilities were stressed
Friday by Alexander A. Troyanov-
sky. Russian ambassador. who said
the present European situation was
urgent. Local bankers felt, how
ever. that Germany was not yet in

not perturbed. However. the war
issues had a little better demand
late in the week as Wall Street
magnified the cabled reports TO
make them appear as if the blow
of was not far distant.
Immediate impetus for the gen.
eral snarket rise was sharp Tecov-
cry in utility issues which was set
of by such intangibles as hopes the
Ravburn bill would be modified and
rumors that PWA would lend no

Col Robert G.. Ebert member Of the
Unemp oyment Insurance Committee NJ
President RooSevelt'S Industrial Advisory
Board, has written six articles for the
Indian polls Times. of which this is the
second.
The aim of unemployment inSur-
ance is simply that Of spreading out
the industrial wage bill in such a
manner that benefits to the unem-
ployed will cover the limited inter-
ruptions of earning power to which
most wage earners are exposed.
The benefits, or payments, will rep
resent a certain proportion of the
wages or salaries that the unem-
ployed would earn under normal
conditions.
This implies a reserve fund which
is built up by definitely fixed con-
tributions from both the employer
and the worker, or, as in England,
by the employer, the worker and the
state, or by the employer alone, or
bv the worker alone through trade
unions or associations. The result
is a smoothing out of the business
cycle to a large extent. Another eff
feet is to obviate very considerably
the demands on public relief and
private charity during periods OF
industrial depression, when it can
least be borne.
The reserve fund should be ac-
cumulated with three definite OBJ
iectives in view. It's primary OBJ
iect is to afford a guaranteed in
come for a limited time to workers
who are unable to find jobs. In
periods of general prosperity, there
is always certain amount of UNI
employment due to seasonal varia-
tions. chronological changes in in
dustry, etc. Unemployment insur-
ance, if properly conceived and adj
ministered, will relieve the distress
of practically all unemployment in
normal times.
In periods of general depression
workers will be guaranteed an in
come for certain number of
weeks, say, for the first 26 weeks
of their unemployment. Unemploy-
ment insurance will not, however,
be able to care for the whole prob
lem during a major depression.
The proportion of the unemployed
receiving benefits will rise sharply
when major depression sets in,
but, in the course OF time, as the
depression is prolonged, the proper
ton of beneficiaries to those who
are gainfully occupied will decrease.
Those who have exhausted their
right to benef1t-that is, those who
have received benefits for the full
number of weeks-muSt be cared for
by governmental relief in a major
depression. In England this is clear
ly understood. Insured workers are
carried for 26 weeks; then, if they
have no means Of their own, they
are looked after by what the Brit
ish call Relief Assistance
