ents of hundreds of thousands of Chi

Hunt. How will you answer them? How
will you solve these problems?
ABOUT $4,000 full-time teachers will
take charge of our children during the
next 10 months.
Few of them will be able to devote
their whole thought toward teaching
as prices climb and the purchasing
value of their too-few dollars drop.
Since 1898 the retail cost of food has
risen l03.5e-but the pay Chicago's
teachers receive hasn't.

A beginning elementary school teach
er. who would have received $500 in
1913, now gets $40 more. After nine
years service-if she undertakes special
promotion studies-she1l earn the
princely sum of 1920 month.
Her colleague in high school, who
would have begun teaching at $150
month in 1943, does better now. Her
check is $500. After similar special
work, she can earn maximum of $500
after nine years of teaching.

Judge Heller prepared to
