Governor To Ask Tax
On Half Mile Tracks
Announces Plan To Solve The
Problem Of Liquidating
Negro Teachers Pay

Governor O'Conor on Thursday
announced the solution of the knot
ty fiscal problem of equalizing negro
teachers pay with that of white in
structors.
His plan, which Immediately was
approved by special committee
named to study the question, calls
for the imposition of State tax
the only new levy involved--on
Maryland's half-mile race tracks.
1t also will give to Baltimore City,
out of the $950,OOO the plan re-
quires over the next two-year period,
an additional $225,0OO.
In addition to the tax on half
mile tracks, estimated to yield $685.
900 year, the nineteen counties
in which the inequality in pay exists
will be Obliged to levy an addition
al cents on their tax rates in 1942
and still another cent in 1913.
In order to permit the counties
to take up their share of the burden
of the equalization, the salaries of
the negro teachers will not be rails
ed until January 1, 1912, when the
tax levies of most of the counties
are set.
The Governors plan calls for
$425, 600 in 1912 and $525,OO0 in
1913.
In each of the two years, $685.
600 would be given to Baltimore
city to offset the loss in revenue
estimated at $135, 000-that the
municipality sustained when the
rates of the income tax were lower
ed by the Legislature last week.
The Governor named the special
committee of fiscal officials, legisla-
tors and representatives of the De-
partment of Education to attempt
to work out means of raising the
negro teachers pay when move
was started in the Legislature to
make the State bear the full cost of
the equalization.
The equalization was ordered
in effect by Federal Court de-
cision in which 1t was held that the
different scales of pay for white
and negro teachers were discrimin-
atory.
The counties now are obliged
in order to participate in the equali-
cation fund of the State Department
of Education-to levy minimum of
81 cents for school purposes.
If county levies 81 cents under
the present law and the levy does
not produce sufficient funds to car
ry minimum standard program
of education, the balance is financed
from the equalization fund.
The counties participating in the
fund-nineteen of them-in 1912
will have to levy a minimum of So
cents, and 81 cents in 1913, in
order to obtain assistance from the
equalization fund.

Eight Counties Free
From Diphtheria
Nineteen Counties; In State
Report No Deaths From
The Dread Disease

Nineteen of the twenty-three
counties Of Maryland had no deaths
from diphtheria in 1910 and eight
of this number were free from sick
ness as we'll as from deaths from the
disease during tn year.
Allegany, Calvert, Garrett, Har-
ford, Howard, Kent, Queen Anne's
and Somerset Counties, had neither
sickness nor deaths from diphtheria
during the year. Anne Arundel,
Caroline, Cecil, Charles, Dorchester,
Frederick, Prince Georges, Saint
Mary's, Washington, Wicomico and
Worehester, had some sickness from
diphtheria, but no deaths from the
disease during the year.
Two of these counties--Kent and
Queen Anne's--have had an unbr0k-
en- record, for the last four years,
of freedom from both sickness and
deaths from diphtheria.
In calling attention to these rec
ords, DR.. R. H. Riley, Director of
the State Department of Health, ex-
pressed the hope that eventually it
would be as unusual to have a case
of diphtheria in Maryland as 1t now
is to have one of smallpox.
I'VE have a State Law, he con-
tinued (which requires all children
to be vaccinated against smallpox
before they may be enrolled in any
public school in the State. Our free
aa.~o fro,., c,,,allnov 10 dino lnrpoIv
to the intelligent compliance of the
people of Maryland in the observ-
ance of this requirement. We have
not had a case of smallpox in Mary
land in ten years.
1--WE have no law requiring child
rem to be protected against diph-
iberia, but through the use Of what
is known as 'toxiod', children can
be protected against diphtheria, in
the same way that they can be vac
cinated against smallpox. Parents
are urged to have their children pro-
tected against diphtheria, by their
own doctors, before they are year
old. Clinics are held by the Health
Departments in all of the counties
and in Baltimore City, for the pro-
lection OF childSen who cannot have
it done otherwise.
Thousands of parents avail them
selves of these opportunities to have
their children safeguarded against
diphtheria. The results are shown in
the gradual decrease in sickness and
deaths from this disease. Twenty
year sago--in 1920--there were over
$500 cases of diphtheria in Mary
land, with nearly 200 deaths. Ten
years ago. in 192O--there were over
LOO cases with so deaths. Last
year-1940--there were 1853 cases.
40 in Baltimore City, and 104 in
the counties, with z deaths, of
which occurred in the counties.
whenever a case of diphtheria
is reported, not protected usually
appears on the record. We are look
ing forward to the time when every
child in the State is protected and
when our record for diphtheria will
be as blank as it now is for small
pox."
