Commissioners
Grant $4,000
Teacher Raise
Joint Boards Accept Recommend
datiOn of Teachers Commit
tee Tuesday Afternoon

Garrett County public school teach
ers will receive an increase of 5000
in salary during the current school
term of 1852, it was announced
Tuesday evening in a joint state
ment.
The joint announcement came from
the Board of Education and the
County Commissioners, following a
conference with the legislative COM
mittee of the Garrett County Teach
ers' association. The association,
through it's committee, had recon-
mended the increase due to the adj
vance in the cost of living.
The amount involved is approx
mately $4,000, and will affect around
$50 teachers. The sum will be in
Guided in next years levy which will
be laid early in the year by the Com
missioners. Whether or not it would
increase the tax rate or could he
substituted for some other item in
the levy was not known Immediately.
However, it was pointed out that it
would amount to If to Is cents on
each 500 of property on the tax
rate.
In announcing the increase, the
joint boards made it clear that the
increase was only for one year and
that any future increases would be
based on legislation now pending in
the Legislature or upon new legisla-
ton to be offered when the General
Assembly convenes next year.
The Teachers committee includes
Carl Everly, president; Merle Frantz,
Bruce Jenkins, Mason Calls, Kathryn
Speichel and Wilbur J. Glenn. The
committee assured the two boards
that the amount granted would be
satisfactory.
All other counties in the state al
ready had taken some action in re-
gard to an increase in teachers
salaries, and the Board of Education
stated that the salary schedule in this
county was having bad effect as a
morale builder in the school system.
The Board of Education stated that
there had been numerous demands up
on it by the people, and that the Par
Teacher associations had declared
they were back of the increase one
hundred percent.
The money will not be available I'M
til after the first of the year, when
the levy is made, but Jonas w. Sines,
president of the County Commission
ers, said the agreement was retroac-
tive, and that the 5000 increase would
cover the entire school term.
The increase for the teachers is a
blanket increase, meaning that the
salary schedule now will run from
s., 400 to $4,000, instead of from
$4,000 to $500.

'I'n do as you say" she whis-
pered quickly to Fay and ran from
the room. Cleve had paused on the
white portico to speak to Carol,
who, hands clasped about her
knees, sat in the sun on the top
step. She looked up as Dorinda
neared her.

came back to Dorinda's face.
"Only happen to prefer blondes"
There's something about a uni
form-I mean a nurses uniform"
Dorinda said dreamily. But her
gaiety sounded forced.
Cleve caught her hand, his hard
brown fingers warm against hers.

She felt the deep sigh that shook
