Chest Groups Merge,
Form New Welfare
Agency on Families

Formation of a new welfare
agency known as Family ano
Child Services of Washington was
announced today by United Com
munity Services.
The new agency is the result OF
a merger of three Community
Chest supported organizations
the Family Service Association
Children's Protective Association
and Foster Day Care and Coun-
selling Association.
Top-level merger of the three
groups was completed at the first
meeting of the new agencys
board of trustees yesterday. The
board elected officers and execu-
tive committee members, except
for the president who will be
named later.
Operating Merger Sought.
Still to be accomplished is q
merger of the three old agencies
at the operating level. This is
slated to be worked out during the
course of this year. A decision is
expected soon on whether a single
building will be sought to replace
the three now occupied by the
separate agencies.
Charles T. Penn, named yester-
day as first vice president, will
head the new agency's board for
the time being. Other officers
are Mrs. Wayne Coy, second vice
president; George S. Elmore, Sec
retary; Mrs. Alice c. Hunter,
assistant secretary; William J..
Flather III, treasurer, and w. R.
Willoughby. assistant treasurer.
Merger arrangements have been
under study for some months.
The plan was devised to increase
efficiency. in line with established
UCS policy. 1t is the first large
scale amalgamation of UCS
agencies.
39-Member Board.
The new agency will be gov
erned by a 39-member Board of
Trustees. During the first year
the board will include eight men,
bers designated by Children's
Protective Association, eight by
Foster Day Care and Counsel
ing Association, 16 by Family
Service Association and seven
members-at-large named by UCS.
A co-ordinated budget will be
devised by the groups new
Budget Committee January %
and submitted for UCS approval.
The combined agency will con-
tinue to receive Chest funds.
Decisions as to new quarters
must be made promptly, since the
Foster Day Care agency's present
lease expires February IA and that
Of Children's Protective expires
in June.
Research Is Planned.
A closely co-ordinated program
Of family and child welfare serv-
ice is planned under the merger.
In addition. the new agency will
launch research on causes and
effects of family breakdowns and
child problems.
Like its predecessors. the
agency is non-sectarian. Family
Service Association has been a
major family counseling agency.
Children's Protective has been a
major adoption agency, and Fos-
ter Day Care and Counseling has
specialized in providing care for
children of working mothers.

| Teachers Raise Goals
For Minimum Salary
Al Conference Here

The National Education Asso-
citation today raised it's sights and
declared teachers salaries should
range from a minimum of $4,000
to maximum of $4,000 a year if
public education Is to survive the
present national crisis.
The old goals, set by the NEA in
1946, were $4,000 and $4,000.
DR.. Ralph Mcdonald, executive
secretary of the NEA National
Commission on Teacher Educa-
ton and Professional Standards,
disclosed the new salary goals in
a keynote speech at a regional
conference on teacher problems
at the Mayflower Hotel. The
two-day conference is sponsored
by his commission.
Points to Defense Jobs.
Continued employment OF
qualified teachers at low salaries
is impossible in the period ahead, y
DR.. Mcdonald declared.
The educator said it would be
impossible for any community tc
hold on to its teaching staff un-
less it offers something approach
ing the new salary goals. He OBJ
served that the expanding defense
economy is opening many high
salarled jobs for which competent
teachers could easily qualify.
He estimated the actual need
Tor new elementary teachers would
be more than 143, 800 in the COM
ing year. In contrast, the colleges
will be able to provide only about
$4,000 teachers with one or more
years of college training.
DIR Mcdonald said the present
teachers salaries are entirely in
adequate" The average teacher
salary now is approximately So, ,08C
while the median salary of pro-
