.A.F.L. Teachers Say Classrooms
 Big Enough Now

< DETROIT-(FP)-Plans of the Detroit board of education to speed up the teachers next fall by crowding more pupils into the classrooms are meeting with vigorous protests from Local 231, American Federation of Teachers (AFL).
 How much speedup will be demand ed is disputed, because of a strange way of figuring employed by the board. The board figures the average number of children per teacher by padding the number of teachers. It does this by adding in the principals and all administrative non- teaching persons on the school payroll
 The union thinks the actual num- Der of children in school should be divided by the actual numbeR of working teachers in the school to find out the classroom average load. That gives the real average while what the board calls the teacher-pupil ratio is misleading, it is argued.
 1st V. Pres. Helen Moore of the local union estimates the actual class room averages 43 to A children per teacher. The board ratio works out to 38. The new load, effective next Sep tember under the budget adopted by the board, will add only 6 tenths or 7 tenths of child to the average, Supt. Arthur Dondineau maintains.

cutters, who received thirty-two cents, elevator constructors helpers, who re- ceived eighteen cents.
 This set the wage range for the affected unions at $1.90 an hour for some helpers to $3 an hour for hoisting engineers, and some other journeymen. Should the costs of living index, as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, be more than Is per cent higher in April, 1949, than the figure for January of 1948, the wage rates covered by yesterdays agreement will be increased by half the excess over Is per cent. In other words, if living costs are up 25 per cent, the wages will be increased by per cent. The increase will be calculated on the high est rate covered by the agreement, or $3 an hour.
 The agreement did not change the lengths of working days of the various trades, except to shorten that of derrickmen and stone rig. gers from eight to seven hours, with a salary rise from $2.l5 to $2.SO an hour.

Teamsters Sue Employer Under Taft-Hartley Act

CINCINNATI-FP)- The first suit filed by union here under the Taft Hartley act was submitted to US. district court by Local col, .lntl. Bro. of Teamsters.
 The suit asks $5O,00O damages from the Queen City Warehouse on grounds that the firm preached contract with the union.
 Union Atty. J. w. Brown said the two parties signed 1-year contract Oct. 31, 1946, under which the firm was required to hire new employees through the union and was obligated to require new employees to become members of the union within Is days.
 "The preaching of this clause" Brown said, caused the union to lose its majority at the Queen City Ware house."
 The suit has not yet been set for hearing.

 Shows Decline

WASHINGTON, D.

De- partment of Labor. These are the lat est available figures.
 This was decline of 13 per cent from the revised estimate of 93,800 for October-the peak month of 1947. Nevertheless, November showed a 72 per cent increase over November 1946 in the number of new dwellings start ed, and it was the fifth consecutive month in which housing starts exceed ed 80,O00.

Knoxville (LPA)- The Tennessee Valley Authority, under fire from re- actionary members of Congress, re- vealed in its annual report last week that the average domestic consumer in the IVA region used 60%o more cleo tricity and paid l68o less for it than the average such consumer in the na- ton.
 The IVA directors objected to Con- gressional proposals that the Author ity speed up its rate of repayments oi the original federal investments in the Valley, on the grounds that extra funds should be reinvested in expand ing TWAS facilities.

Clergymen Ask Hof-Brau To Arbitrate
Bonds Hit By HCL

A war bond bought in December 1941 for $18.75 and cashed in today is worth a total of $12.45-interest included.
 This was revealed in a Federated Press survey based on official cost of living figures, which show that soaring prices have eaten away at the prewar dollar-now worth about 60c.
 If a bond-holder cashed in a c. year-old $18.75 bond today, he would have accumulated enough in- .terest to receive $20.75 in cash. But that $2075 would buy only as much food, clothing and other products as $1275 would have bought in 1941.
 On $100 bond bought for $75 in December, 1941, the purchaser would get $83 in cash today. But that $83 would go only as far as $4980 would have gone at the time the bond was bought.

As We See It
 by THE STAFF

Pres. Truman's doctor, when ac- cused of speculating in wheat, an- nounced he left his accounts to the discretion of his broker. Which only proves that while a doctor may sometimes be in the dock, a broker seldom goes broke.
 That new voluntary price control law means that prices will no long, CT be allowed to go up without gov ernment approval.
 They'll now go up with it.
 John Peter Altgeld, Illinois he. roic, pro-labor Governor, would have hardly believed that on the hundredth anniversary of his birth Cardinal, a Supreme Court Jus tice, and an incumbent Republican Governor of his state would have gathered together to pay tribute to him. For when he died, nearly fifty years ago, he was despised and hated by all but the workingmen in whose interests he sacrificed his pO- litical career.
 It was only fitting that William Green. president of the AFL, and Philip Murray, president of the CIO, should have paid tribute to Altgeld on his hundredth anniver- sary. For they speak for the work CTS as he did himself.
 I'm addition to Samuel Cardinal Stritch, Catholic Archbishop of the Diocese of Chicago, Dwight Green, Republican Governor of Illinois, and William O. Douglas, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, two great Illinois poets, Carl Sundburg and Edgar Lee Masters addressed the dinner. It was another Illinois writer, the late Vachel Lindsay, who wrote Eagle Forgotten" one of the great memorial poems of English literature. which has kept Altgeld's name alive.

St. Louis (LPA)-A new recrea- ton center in the heart of St. Louis tenement area will be built as the re- suit of collection of funds by mem bers of District 9 of the Int'1 Associa- ton of MachinistS.
