Fairfax Association Urges
Pay Boost for Teachers

An increased salary scale for
Fairfax County school teachers has
been recommended by the Fairfax
Education Association to the County
School Board.
The group, in drafting the resolu-
ton at its meeting last week, pointed
out that individuals are not return
ing to the teaching field as rapidly
as had been hoped. Many present
teachers are leaving and discharged
veterans are seeking a more lu-
crative means of earning a living,
the group said.
The present scale starts at 81 $50
for the first year and increases $50
annually to top of $1,000 after y
years. The proposed scale, based
on the salary sof a college profess
sional, would start at $500 and
reach top salary of $4,000 at the
end of 10 years. It was also sug-
gested that returning members of
the armed forces be given full credit,
on the scale, for military absence.

Virginia Clio Raps
Tuck on Union Stand
By the Associated Press.

SS Tue hSsOCldteQ fIeSS.
RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 22.-The
Virginia CLIO in a statement issued
yesterday by Ernest B. Pugh, re-
gional director, deplored Gov. Tuck's
stand against unionization of public
employees as "a vicious, dogmatic
antilabor pronouncement, which
might well have been taken bodily
from Hitler's book of rules"
In his legislative message, Gov
Tuck spoke of the proposed organi-
cation of Richmond City employees
and asked the General Assembly to
adopt joint resolution against COL
lective bargaining with unions OF
public employees, State or local.
Gov. Tuck" declared Mr.. Pugh
goes further against labor than
Senator Byrd did in his recent ad-
dress before the Richmond Chamber
of Commerce. He attempts to
abridge the God-given right of free
Americans to do as they see fit and
invades very deeply the field of free
dom of thought and freedom OF
action.
THE CLIO feels that he is
adopting the same tactics that were
adopted by Hitler and Mussolini be-
fore the revolutions in their coun-
tries. Their very first steps were to
destroy the labor unions Of their re-
spective countries"
Mr.. Pugh accused the Governor OF
"specious argument" in saying he Is
not opposed to unions and asserting
at the same time that unionizatior
inevitably leads to strikes. He
pointed out that the constitution OF
the Union of City Employees here
expressly forbids strikes"

Ex-NavY Officer Fined 500
For Threat With Pistol

Harold P. Berry, Is, former Navy
lieutenant, was fined 500 and costs
in Bethesda Trial Magistrates Court
today on charge growing out of
his firing a .45-caliber pistol into
the ground in an attempt to brighten
a trash collection crew into taking
away discarded box.
The alteration occurred at Berrv's
home, 4416 Chestnut street, Be-
thesda, January 4. According to
Robert jackson, colored, foreman of
the Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission crew, Berry used the
gun after the trash collectors had
refused to cart off a box. The for
mer naval officer was charged with
attempted assault.
In sentencing Berry, Judge James
Christopher said the court could not
condone the "act of any individual
in using firearms to brighten public
servants"
Berry was discharged from the
Navy December 3 after three years
service. He plans to enter the Uni
versity of Maryland next week.

Falls Church Citizens
Ask Change in Charter
Bond Issue Clause

A clause to be included In a pro-
posed new charter providing that a
petition for a bond issue could be
initiated either by the Town Coun-
Gil or by Is per cent of the resident
freeholders was approved last night
at meeting of Falls Church resi-
dents.
Discussion of a proposed town
charter conferred around whether
Falls Church should adopt the pro-
cedure laid down by the Virginia
laws for voting bond issues or should
continue its present method of re-
quiring bond issues first to be an
proved by majority of the resident
freeholders. The Charter Committee
explained that the proposed charter
provides that bond issues may be
voted on by qualified voters regard
less of whether or not they own
property in the town.
Capt. John Bethune told the meet
ing the provision to give resident
property owners prior approval of a
bond issue was provided many years
ago on the assumption that Falls
Church was "a mere suburb of
Washington" He argued for the
continuance of the procedure SO
'nonproperty holders could not sad
die the town with huge indebted
ness and leave the permanent resi-
dents with the burden of paying it
off,"
Samuel ]. Dennis, member of the
Town Planning Commission, declared
the town should not have q charter
which completely ties the hands of
the council" He said the present
charter makes it impossible to float
a bond issue.
The next step in the adoption of
the town charter would be an cleo
ton participated in by 50 per cent
OF the property owners and in which
a majority of those voting approve
the measure. A special election
would then be called which would
be participated in by all qualified
voters, whether property owners or
not.
An objection to the description of
the towns boundaries in the charter.
which refers to farms and land
marks no longer in existence. was
raised by Capt. Bethune.

Baldwin Will Enter
Democratic Primary
In Governor Race
BY the Associated Press.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 22.-Repre-
sentative Baldwin, Democrat, of
Maryland will be a candidate for
the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor of Maryland in the June "a
primary.
Mr.. Baldwin's announcement, made
yesterday, apparently assures a DEM
ocratic battle for the nomination,
since w. Preston Lane, jr., Hagers-
town publisher, also has announced
for the governorship.
In his statement, Mr.. Baldwin said
he had observed with sorrow in his
two terms as Representative "the in
filtration into the Democratic party
Of many Communistic and left-wing
groups who are endeavoring to
change our democratic form of gov
eminent, of which we have been so
proud. into state of national So
ciaHsm."
Assails CLIO Group.
ITO my mind" he continued, ''the
most objectionable of these groups
who are being absorbed into the
Democratic party is the group of
radical CLIO labor leaders and their
political affiliate, the PAC."
He said he was not against labor
and that where they are being OPP
pressed or exploited" they would
find him fighting on their side.
The statement said a primary
issue in his campaign would be a
fight for revision of the State tax
laws $50 that Baltimore City will
receive fair treatment at the hands
OF the State government. !
Consideration for Labor.
Labor should and will have every
consideration and fair treatment
from our Government" Mr.. Baldwin
asserted, but the Political Action
Committee should not be permitted
Ito take rule or ruin and public
be damned policy towards the in
terests of the American people"
Mr.. Baldwin said space did not
permit him to discuss State issues
beyond the tax revision question at
this time, but that he would discuss
them fully in the future.
Meanwhile, Claude A.. Hanley,
Towson attorney, filed his certificate
of candidacy yesterday for the Dem
ocratic nomination in the second
congressional district, to succeed Mr..
Baldwin.

BY ALEX r. PRESTON,
Star star CORRESPONDENT.

RICHMOND, Va, Jan. o.
Northern Virginia members of the
General Assembly expressed mild
opposition today to Gov. Tucks' pro-
posal to add / cent a gallon to the
State gasoline tax, but reserved
final judgment until the recon-
mendation could be given further
study.
AS a whole, the Northern Vir-
ginia delegation to the General AS
sembly approved Gov. Tuck's leg
islative program delivered before a
joint assembly yesterday.
Gov. Tuck, in his first appearance
before the Assembly since his in
auguration last Wednesday, recon-
mended, in addition to the gasoline
tax increase, a 20 per cent reduc-
ton In the license tax for private
passenger cars, repeal of the 2 per
cent gross receipts on out of State
motor carriers and an increase of
two and a half times in the license
tax on all common and contract
motor carriers of persons and
property.
Salary Increase Urged.
He recommended salary increase
for State employees, a bipartisan
commission to study reorganization
of the State government and the
improvement of secondary roads.
The Governor urged. in his message,
the banning of unionization by State
employees, declaring that it was in
violation of the public policy of
Virginia. .---- Ed.
Also recommended were expan-
sion of the revenue of the Game
Commission, legislation to combat
stream pollution, an increase of
workmen's compensation, boiler
inspection law, regulation Of small
loan interest rates within the legal
maximum by the State Corporation
Commission and expansion of the
Division of Veterans Claims.
On the proposed gasoline tax in
crease, it was pointed out that Ar
lington, Alexandria, Fairfax and a
small part of Prince William Coun-
ties present a problem different
from that in other sections of the
State.
ID. C.-Virginia Differential.
The differential between retail
prices Of gasoline in the District of
Columbia and Virginia is 2 cents a
gallon. However, this difference is
absorbed in the metropolitan area
Of Virginia by distributors and pro-
ducers. The absorption varies with
the individual oil companies.
Gov. Tuck's plan to levy another
cent on each gallon would increase
this differential to 3 cents, thus fur
ther reducing the profit on gasoline
sold in the District of Columbia
price zone.
Senator William D. Medley. Ar
lington, admitted his concern over
the problem while expressing general
approval of most other features of
the Governors message. If forced to
vote today, he conceded he probably
would vote against the increase.
Similarly, Senator Andrew w.

Mild Opposition to Gas Tax Rise
Voiced by Virginia Legislators

Clarke, Alexandria, Fairfax and
Prince William, asserted the present
levy seems to be sufficiently high,
but added that If the raise is voted,
the Assembly should provide a fiat
license fee for vehicles.
Delegates George Damn and J..
Maynard Magruder, both of Ar
lington, and Edwin Lynch, Fair
fax, said they preferred to reserve
Judgment on the matter.
Delegate Frank Moncure, Stafford
and Prince William, and Delegate
Norman c. Bailey, Orange, sup
ported the increase.
While Gov Tuck planned the
higher fuel tax to meet needed con-
struction and maintenance costs for
highways, the benefits from the
levy would be Offset by other rec
concentrations if given legislative
approval.
These are the permanent removal
OF the 2 per cent gross receipts tax
on common and contract carriers
which never has been imposed on
out-of-State operators because it
was suspended by proclamation as a
war measure after enactment in
1912, and reduction in license tax on
private automobiles from 40 cents
to 80 cents on each 100 pounds.
However, the license tax for trucks
would be increased from As cents
to SLIPS per 100 pounds.
Mr.. Magruder did not take issue
with Gov. Tuck's recommendations
to repeal the gross receipts levy
but said he felt better plan would
be to maintain the existing statute
sponsored by Charles R., Fenwick
former Arlington Delegate in 1912
without imposing the tax on fop-
orators from other jurisdictions that
have reciprocal agreements with
Virginia.
Gov. Tuck's views with regard to
unionization of State employees was
greeted with reserve. Senator Med
ley said the statement was "coura-
geous" but declined further COM
ment, as did Senator Clark and
Mr.. Magruder Mr.. Damn said he
feels public employees should not
have the right to strike against
the Government and Mr.. Bailey
lauded the Governor for his posi-
ton. Mr.. Moncure asserted the
Governor is 1000 per cent right. "
Moncure Opposes Change.
Gov. Tuck's views on election law
revision brought reserved comment
from some quarters, but outspoken
opposition to repeal of the poll tax
came from Mr.. Moncure, who said,
i don't care who knows that"
Senator Medley was member of
the commission studying election
law reform measures, and Senator
Clarke said he would not oppose any
plan to submit such changes to the
voters for final decision.
No opposition was found to the
Governors recommendation that
antipollution legislation be enacted
as provided for identical bills al
ready pending in both houses and
sponsored in the lower house by
Delegate E. Blackburn Moore. Win
