Tuck Finds $4,000
For Teaching Study
BY the Asseeiated Press

RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 6.-Gov.
Tuck yesterday released an emer.
gency appropriation of $4,000 to
pay for 80 additional teacher schol-
arships during the current school
year.
|. The Governor said a request for
this sum from G. Tyler Miller, State
superintendent of public instruction,
was one plea for funds he was "es.
pecially happy to approve"
The teacher scholarship program,
originated by the Governor late in
1916, was first approved by the Gen.
eral Assembly in 1947 and expanded
in 194S.
Gov. Tuck said he was advised the
program is such a success this year
that funds appropriated to provide
500 scholarships for 1948-9 already
have been exhausted.
After the first 500 applicants had
been cared for, there remained 30
qualified applicants who expressed
their willingness to meet the pro-
grams requirements-that they en-
ter the Virginia school system as
teachers on their graduation.
1T will be advantageous to COM
init to teaching at an early date as
many applicants as possible" Mr..
Miller wrote the Governor in ask
ing for the appropriation.

Three prisoners who broke out of
the Rockville Md) Jail last night
were recaptured within 20 minutes
on the roof of the county courthouse.
Police said the three used hinge

door in the cell block. Using the door
as a battering ram. they smashed
through barred window and
climbed through to the courthouse
roof. The cell block is located atop
the courthouse.
A trusty who came around to pass
out candy bars among the prisoners
was told of the escape minutes later
by another prisoner who had stayed
behind in the cell block, police said.
The trusty called Jailer Joseph
Moxley, who in turn notified county
police. Police soon had the court
house surrounded and several police
men climbed into a radio tower on
the courthouse.
Police said they felt sure the es-
capped men were hiding on the
courthouse roof as it was a four
floor drop to the ground. Finding
it difficult to see whether the men
were hiding in the caves, police
called the Rockville Fire Depart-
ment, which turned spotlights on
the roof until the trio was seen.
Surrounded by police with guns
trained on them. the unarmed trio
quickly surrendered. ~ ..s

employees and later was approved
by the unions International Execu.

Next Tuesday members of Divi.
sion So, who have the final say-so
probably will accept the word o1

that this is the best possible settle
ment under the circumstances.
Still up in the air, however, will
be the question Of whether about

Division so Still Holds Out.
Like Division &c. this group re-
jected the company's final" offer
during 30-day wage reopening
period. Today Division SOS presi-
dent, Mrs. Mary e. Cannon, said
the union definitely was not Wiling
to accept the company's $2-to-$4-a-
week offer at this time and had no
plans for resuming negotiations.
In announcing the settlement for
Division So, F. G. Macarow, O. g. p.
vice president and general manager,
said the increases would be retro
active to November z If the men,
bership ratifies the agreement oy

He said the new agreement would
give top classified craftsmen s86 a

resentatives s62.
Mr.. Watts figured the wage in
creases averaged SAIL per week, a
little more than 10 cents an hour.
Calls Settlement Unsatisfactory.
Under the terms, 10 persons now
earning up to $29 a week will re-
ceive 81 more per week: 100 persons
making $50 to $43, So more; 931
persons making $44 to $57, So more

more; $40 persons making S66 to
$73, S. more, and 1880 persons max
ing STA and over, So more.
Mr.. Watts said the settlement was
entirely unsatisfactory in view of
the increase in the cost of living
since the last wage increase in May,
1947."
Calling the agreement a Shock
ing discrimination against low wage
earners," he said the company had
passed up an opportunity to enter
into an era of good employe rela-
