tax on cigarettes.
The House. earlier in the day,
had given tentative approval to
its own version of the teacher
pay bill. calling for an increase
of one-half per cent in the in
come tax rate.
The conference committee APP
pointment appeare certain,
with both measures carrying by
heavy majority in their test in
the two chambers.
There still were a number of
legislators here, however, who
prefer the sales tax TO either of
the measures now being consid-
cred. As yet they have not made
an open fight and some OBJ
servers feel they may make their
pitch through the conference
committee.
Badly Outnumbered
Inc Senate action came late
last night after opponents Of the
cigarette tax were badly beaten
in an attempt to substitute the
income tax for the cigarette tax.
They mustered only five votes
after more than an hour OF de-
bate on their substitute proposal.
The slimmed-down teacher pay
bill then sailed through the
Senate with only one dissenting
vote. Three Southern Maryland
Senators abstained.
The Senate version falls short
of that being demanded BY school
organizations and teacher lobby
lists here.

Their main concern, Mr.. Scull
said, is the manner and reason

59-year-old DR.. Norris. whose
contract the School Board has
announced will not be renewed
when it expires in July
In statement announcing the
COMMITTEES formation, Mr.. Scull
declared:
The shabby handling of DR..
Norris by Montgomery County's
first elected School Board re-
fleets little credit on anyone con-
cerned. This transparent ma
neuver amounts to summary dis
misSal for a man with 40 years
of professional eXperience-an
action, furthermore, that is
lacking in even a measure of
common human decency.
Wide Damage Seen
''Dr. Norris must be guilty of
considerable administrative mis-
conduct to merit such treatment,
and the public is clearly entitled
to know the facts. If the board
cannot demonstrate a major
dereliction OF duty but can only
point to an accumulation of petty
personal differences, then the
error is compounded for the re-
suit vii mot only bring damage

the program initiated by Loring
Macy, BIC director.
The program will emphasize
individuaiized advanced career
training of promising employees
who are willing to abide by GER
tam conditions in order to qualify
for training for executive Jobs
The employees must promise to
Augment the training given them
by attending night college
classes, ETC.. at their own e.
pense. Should the legislation
authorizing outside training fol-
Federal employees at Government
expense be approved by Con-
gress, rs requested by the ad-
ministration. the employees
would not have to use tn cir own
money for this purpose.)
Also. the employees mus t
promise to accept whatever
overseas assignment is gwen
them as part Of their executive
development.
In return. the employees will
be given individual attention
and instruction. They will at
tend briefings of foreign service
officers, trade missions and for
eign and American businessmen.
They also will be given courses
on human relations and man
agement techniques. public

promise in their work and are
willing to augment their training
by outside studies of their own.
Mr.. Macy says he feels such an
approach has not been tried in
