 We are informed that the July 9 sailing will discharge only perish ables on it's northbound trip at Nome and will go to Kotzebue so that freight for Kobuk and Noa- talk may be discharged as soon as possible. The balance of the Nome freight will be discharged on the return trip.

Group
To Press for Action
On Teachers Pay Bill

The Montgomery County Coun-
ell of Parent Teacher Associations
will press State legislators next
year to override Gov. McKeldin'S
veto of the teachers pay bill to
increase minimum salaries from
So 200 to $4,000 annually.
The councils legislation group
at the annual PTA workshop voted
to fight the veto of the pay bill.
The group also went on record
asking for clariflcation of the
State law setting up the three
year assessment cycle in the
counties. The law provides that
all reassessments will go on the
books at the same time at the end
of the three-year PERIOD.
Some officials fear that the law,
as it now reads. bars putting
property improvements on the
books as they are made. Such an
Interpretation would endanger the
school construction program, they
say, by freezing the county bond
limitation for a three e-year- period.
800 at Workshop.
Some 800 persons turned out for
yesterdays workshop at the
Western Junior High School. The
group Was welcomed by James
Reber. PTA council president, and
Thomas S. Jackson, president of
the school board.
Chairman of the legislation
group was Myron Isaacs, of 10318
Colesville road, Silver Spring.
Members of the panel included
Dr.. Roy Tasco, Davis County
school board member and a mem
ber of the Governors Commission
on Public Schools; DR.. David w.
Zimmerman, assistant State school
superintendent; j. Douglas Brad
shaw, chairman of the county's
delegation to Annapolis, and Rich
ard B. Grove. assistant treasurer
of the school board.
Increase Affects Payment.
Mr.. Isaacs told the group that
although Montgomery's teachers
receive well above the State min
imum. the minimum affects the
formula by which State equaliza-
ton funds are paid the county.
The $500 increase would hike
State payments to Montgomery
by more than $400, 900 annually, he
said. The county now receives
about SIG million from the State,
only about 20 per cent of the ac-
tual cost of operating the county's
schools, MI ISaacs said.

Mr. Maiden would not elaborate
on just what proposal was being
placed before the 800 striking

limited operations since the strike

The State of Virginia sized the

gan and has been operating it

Big Nearby Vote Broke Record,
But Many Failed to Register

more than $4,000 voters. They
represented 80 per cent of the reg
istered vote of approximately $780,
|000, and more than 35 per cent of
the potential. The 35 per cent
figure, while a major advance over
1948, in Virginia. was still far un-
der the national average and Vir-
ginia's potentiality.
County and City Totals.
Of more immediate and direct
Interest in this area were the vote
totals ir nearby counties and
cities. Turnouts in almost every
instance were at least double what
they were four years ago. Yet the
ratio between actual voters and
potential voters might have been
considerably larger. =
The following figures are still
tentative but they indicate trends
las well as opportunities for i'm
Iprovement in the future:
Montgomery County listed IT,
1877 voters for President, as COM
pared with 38.407 in 1948. It's
vote last Tuesday was 88 per cent
of registration.
Prince Georges County voters
totaled 67,602, as compared with
80, ,164 four years ago.
Arlington County had 36,191
voters, almost twice as many as in
1948.
Fairfax County's voter total was
1922 as compared with about
5000 in 1948. That total included
Falls Church at that time. Falls
Church, as a city. recorded 2,316
Ivcters last Tuesday.
The presidential vote in Alex
andria was slightly over $4,000. In
1948, only 1890 cast ballots for
President.
Nearly 100 Per Cent.
Several individual communities
or precincts in the two States
achieved almost 100 per cent OF
voting strength. Colonial Heights,
Va, for example. had / $3.50 eligible
voters, and 1,758 voted.
All except IA of the 1,004 regis
tered voters in Thrifton. voting
place in Alexandria, showed up at
the polls.
But, in line with reminder
that the record votes of 1852
should be IAN impetus and not
an end, it is helpful to recall
that. some 10000 registered voters
in Alexandria did not vote. Almost
1000 registered voters in Airing
ton County stayed away on elec-
ton day. At least $500 Fairfax
County registered voters did not
vote. ..e
Only little more than 1900
of Montgomery County's 1880
registered voters voted. Fewer
than $1,000 of the $4,000 regis
tered voters of Prince Georges
County cast ballots. The. differ
Iences between actual voters and
voting age citizens were even
greater. = :.
