70 per cent salary increase. That

for the groups around Charlotte.
Asheville and Lcnior. State teachers
generally were going along with the
organization.
1t is very VOcativc minority. and
il is also more widely distributed
over the State than most Capitol
Square observers had believed. This
was evidenced by the vcritable storm
ing of the NCEA directors meeting
by irate teachers. whose Spokesman
demanded minimum OF around SIS
per cent instead OF 20
The NCEA directors concsdc that
20 per cent is not enough and they
insist that figure is an absolute min
imum, but because of reasons which
y
feel bound 10 stand by commitments
favoring that program
During the late summer ana early
fall numerous conferences were held
among officials OF NCEA. the State
Grange. the Farm Bureau. the State
Congress of Parents and Teachers and
the State Board OF Education. Prior 10
that there had been rumogS that the
governor and the Advisory Budget
Commission were thinking in terms
OF 10 10 Is per cent salary increase

conferences the 20 per cent minimum
was adopted as perhaps the highest

The budget group made no commit

Advocates of this agreed basis

base salaries. The increase is figured
