Dr.. Corning Urges
Raise for Teachers
Costing SIS Million
New Compromise Plan
Offered at Meeting
Of Board and Spencer

District school officials today
proposed a new compromise
teacher pay increase which would
cost about $2.5 million.
The compromise proposal was
made at a meeting between Com
missioner Samuel Spencer and
members of the Board of Educa-
ton.
The city heads a year ago ap-
proved in principle $1.6 million
teacher raise, but this was
shelved because OF lack OF funds.
Scnool SUPP. Hobart M. Corning
.touay asked commissioner Spen-
Ger to consider increasing the
hgure to about SIS million, as
serClng this is necessary to Keep
District pay in line with in
creaSeS in oJher cities.
Second Pay Proposal.
The new pay raise proposal is
separate from a larger raise
which is being sought by the
Board of Education in connec-
ton with a general salary re-
vision. The larger raise was ve-
toed by the city heads last year
and is not considered likely to
be approved this veal.
Commissioner Spencer, after
toaay'S session, SAID no decision
had been reached. Mr.. Spencer
told the meeting any pay raise
will require an increase IN taxes
and he said possible tax in
creases are being studied.
S2O0-a-Year Raise.
DR.. Corning's proposal would
give teachers a raise of approx
mately 5000 a year. it was re-
porteo.
MI. Spencer said any decision
to raise teacher pay probably Will
be tied to a pay raise for classi-
fed Government employees.
Also discussed at this morn
ing'S session was a request by
the school board for funds for
seven temporary ry'school buildings
this year MIR. Spencer said no
final decision was made on these,
either.

In announcing the proposal,
Senator Butler said:
THE disgraceful service pro-

Defeat Is Seen
For TaxCuto on
Senate Floor
Supporters Hope
For Victory Pinned
On Conference
By jones Y. Newton

Advocates of an income tax cut
today pledged a hard floor fight
on the issue but the Senate was
expected to back up its Finance
Committee in rejecting any form
of reduction at this time.
The Senate will start debate
on the tax question Friday or
early next week.
Those favoring income tax re-
duction, including the Demo-

cratic leadership of the House
and Senate. feel they have the
best chance of winning when the
bill goes to conference to settle
differences in the two versions.
The House passed $2O-per-per-
son tax cut effective next Janu-
airy and its conferees were ex-
pected to sit tight.
President Gratified.
President Eisenhower said at
his news conference today he
was gratified by the action of
the Senate Finance Committee.
He said he was delighted not
only that the committee struck
out the proposed $40 income
tax credit, but also approved
provisions to continue the cor
poratlon income taxa rate and
various excise levies.
He told reporters ne had moth
ing further to add to his state
ment of last week denouncing
the proposed tax cut at this
time. He commented briefly,
however. on one aspect of testi-
mony before the Senate commit
tee yesterday by Leon Keyser-
ling, former financial adviser in
Democratic administrations.
The President said he had been
informed that Mr. Keyserllng
suggested a plan for balancing
the Federal budget and at the
same time spending more money.
The President remarked that he
doubted that this was a good
economic plan.
Battle in Conference Seen.
Senate Finance Chairman
Byru said he expected the real
battle to come in the conference
with the House. Senator Byrd
and Senator George, Democrat,
OF Georgia joined the seven COM
mittee Republicans in defeating,
3 to 6, the $40 House plan and
four versions of it.
Senator Byrd said he was con-
fident the Senate would not re-
verse the committee. 1t struck
the $40 provision from the bill
requested by the administration
extending present high-level
rates of corporation and certain
excise taxes for a year beyond
April J when the rates are due
to drop.
Senator Millikin of Colorado,
ranking Republican on the FL
nance Committee, said he
thought few Republicans would
desert the administration.
The Democratic Senate lead
ership has indicated it would
make a floor fight for tax re-
duction. Senate Democratic
Leader Lyndon johnson, con-
valescing from an illness, voted
for cut in the committee by
proxy. Acting Democratic Lead
er Clements of Kentucky said
the fight would be carried to the
Senate floor "and pushed as Wig
orously as possible"
Proponents of a tax cut have
one advantage. Congress is
working against an April l dead
line on extension of corporation
and excise taxes. If those rates
are allowed to drop, the Govern
ment would lose about $2.8 bill
lion in revenue a year. The esti-
mated cost of the $40 income cut
is $2.2 billion.
If the House Democrats stick
to their guns when the tax bill
reaches conference, they will be
able to exert heavy pressure on
their opponents anxious to meet
the deadline.

Free Breakfasts for Passengers
Moy Spread to Other Troins

til they are ordered. Part Of the
trick of popularizing them has
been to select q few standard
menus that would appease the
cosmopolitan tastes Of people
from all walks Of life. Economy
to the line would lie largely in
reducing ones choice thus cut
ting down on the wide variety of
foods carried on the diner.
Railroads have invested small
fortunes in building cars that
would trim the passengers ex-
penditure for eating en- route.
Buffet cars, lunch counter cars,
grill lounges and snack bars
have been introduced. A few
years ago the Pennsylvania
Railroad installed so-called
radar ovens on some trains to
speed up the time consumed in
preparing meals and serving pas
Sengers-a sort of quick-turn-
over approach to cutting costs.
Some SeIf-Serviee
Some railroads carry self
service diners, where a service
bar offers drinks, sandwiches
and light meals. Still somewhat
of a novelty are vending ma
chimes for dispensing coffee, soft
drinks and sandwiches. That's
not living in the high style the
luxurious trains of today offer,
but the coin machine provides
an opportunity for thrift in two
ways-the other way being that
it eliminates tips.
AS a class. perhaps the West
ern railroads have done the
most to introduce inexpensive
meals, at the same time keeping
quality at an appetizing stand
ard. Yet deficits in the diner
continue to pile up on all lines,
year after year. The situation
has given rise to q railroad mans
adage that 1t would be cheaper
for each trains conductor to
give every passenger q dollar
in lieu of q dinner, and have
him eat elsewhere. The Bangor
and Aroostock's free breakfast is
the railroads closest approach
to this idea to date.
S3.85 q Doy
An example of popular priced
meals on trains West Of Chi
cago is afforded by the Chal-
lenger Domeliner, operated by
the Chicago & North Western
and the Union Pacific. Freshly
prepared meal expense can be
kept to $3.85 a day, plus tips.
Breakfasts start at IS cents,
luncheons at $1.25 and dinners
at SITS.
The disposition of the Vests
lines to find ways of trimming
meal prices has caused them to
give alert attention to the B. &
AS idea.
Some lines already have
thrust aside, at least for now,
the B. & AS free breakfast in
novation. on the premise that
that is not for u.s." But West
ern lines are reported discussing
it seriously. According to Travel
