Racial References
In Teacher Raise
Measure Opposed

A protest against references
to race or color in the recently
proposed school teacher pay
raise measure was on file today
with the District Commissioners.
The objections were noted in
a letter authorized by IS local
groups.
The Commissioners attention
was called to the fact that the
1947 Teachers Salary Act has
references to racial segregation
in the public schools that should
be stricken in any write-in of
new pay scales.
To fail to do this, the letter
said. would be to "re-enact ra-
cial clauses in school legisla-
tion." 1t was underscored that
the Corporation Counsel has
consistently argued before the
courts that racial references in
the law indicate congressional
intent for a dual school system.
In asking for the language
change, the objectors declared
they feel the Commissioners
cannot support the racial
clauses" in teacher pay legisla-
ton lin view Of the position of
the Eisenhower administration
to eliminate racial segregation
in the Nations Capital"
The groups made clear. at the
same time. that they favor the
recommended salary increases
that would total about STA mil
lion. The city heads are ex-
pected this week to send Con-
gress the results of their recent
pay study made in conjunction
with school officials. While
agreement has been reached on
the desirability for a raise. the
Commissioners will also notify
the legislators that the CITY lacks
funds to meet the cost.

Somewhere between 10 and 16 years of age boy or girl should be given some basic training to fit them into the modern life of today. The gymnasium, track, and other athletics are not training enough. They are necessary, but training should include basic training in trades, occupational requirements, and abilities should be stressed and provided for now.
 Alaska needs boys and girls who can fit into our economy, plus what our schools give them today. The fine grade and high schools, community colleges, plus vocational courses in agriculture, electric, chemical engineering, home economies, and nursing training courses.
 Develop our town, park as our town grows-continue our tennis courts, soft ball and junior ball teams-build a stadium. Palmer needs an awakening to the possi- bilities right here at home.
 We are going in this direction.
 Legislative action is in motion, to meet these problems.
 Our responsibilities lie right here in the Matanuska Valley. Give our youngsters something to do all the time and there will be little need of a juvenile home.
