Total County Budget
To Top 500 Million
Longer School Year
Plan is Discussed

Proposals for school year
longer than the present 10-month
period gained momentum this
week.
At a budget discussion Monday,
Board member Wylie Barrow
asked consideration for at least
another 10 days more than the
state minimum requirement of
$50 school days annually.
Superintendent C. Taylor Whit
tier reported that he had two
proposals under study at present.
One would be way of giving
teachers more money by putting
them on an 11-month rather
than 10-month pay basis. Along
with this he would offer an ex,
tended summer school program
on an optional basis.
Barrow's opposition to sticking
to the legal minimum for the
school term was pointed up by a
request from the superintendent
to move the school closing in June
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1958-01-30

from the 18th to the 18th. The
tight schedule made this neces-
say because of one days loss due
to snow storm.
Member Rose Kramer reported
on what she called the first sue
cessful method to extend the
school year that has been at
tempted in this country.
Know as the Rochester
method, II offers two months Of
optional summer school through
four programs, remedial, acceler-
ated, vocational and recreational.
The superintendent said the
proposals would be placed on the
agenda for discussion at an early
meeting.
Other policy questions that
arose during the budget discus
sion included another look at the
guidance counseling program,
standards and salaries; and re-
consideration of personnel policy
on special leave for teachers for
religious holidays.

At Sherwood
At Sherwood
Night Lights
For Football
Under Study

The School Board wants to
know how Sandy Spring resi-
dents feel about equipping
Sherwood Highs athletic field
with lights for night football.
Tabled until community reac-
ton can be learned was a re-
quest this week from Sherwood's
principal, William r. Miles, for
permission 10 let citizens group
install electric conduits for future
lighting Of the field now in the
process Of construction.
This group of some IS TO 40
active citizens, Miles said, was
also interested in promoting
stadium at some future date.
Precedent for the stadium was
set when the board allowed
Rockville citizens to install stands
at Richard Montgomery.
II was the night lighting, and
not the stadium, that aroused
serious doubts among board mem
bers. Although Miles reported no
opposition as far as he knew, the
board remembered community
uproar that followed "A similar
proposal for Montgomery Blair.
However. the board recognized
the difference between the urban
community Of Silver Spring and
the rural area around Sherwood.
The big question is whether the.
board wants to encourage fund
raising athletics at the possible
expense Of the educational pro-
gram and also where the respon-
sibility for supervision should
rest.

Teacher
Pay Hike
Approved

A last-ditch plea by the
Montgomery County Educa-
ton Association Monday re-
suited in a $500 salary allow
ance" for 288 of the county's
most experienced teachers in
the 1883 school operating
budget.
The unexpected School Board
action came after it had given
final" approval of Superintend.
ent c. Taylor Whittier's $23.5
million operating request last
Thursday.
In addition to the $780, 400 allow
ance for teachers at the top of
the scale. the board had already
increased the minimums by $500
for non.degree, bachelor and mas
tiers degree teachers plus $3.50
increases for all second year
teachers.
Because he would zoe able to
hire more inexperienced teachers,
Whittier told the board that the
increases in the two bottom steps
would not add to his total pro
posal.
Whittiers proposed scale had
ranged from S340O to $500 for
non-degree teachers, $500 to
$4,000 for ALB teachers, to $4,000
to $4,000 for MA teachers in IL
steps.
AS finally adopted, non-degree
teachers would get $4,000 to $500,
ALB teachers. $4,000 to $4,000, and
MA teachers. $4,000 to $500.
This is still considerably under
MCEA's requested scale of $4,000
to $1,000 in 10 steps for ALB teach
ers. However, both Whittier and
members of the board pledged
themselves to an immediate

brought a letter from Cover
nor McKeldin informing me
that he was happy to enclose
proof sheets of that part of
my message which contains
the Administration fiscal pol
icy," ETC., etc.
He couldn't have found a bet
ter way to ruin the week end for
the 152 members of the General
Assembly.
Next Wednesday afternoon We
will be back in our seats at An
napolis opening the 1858 session
and listening to the Governor
read his message, including the
excerpt that was mailed out in
advance.
He will point out that the es-
timated gap between revenue and
expenditures for Fiscal Year 1859
is the whOpping amount of $685..
533,34O.89.
II propose" Mr.. McKeldin will
say, ito close this gap by again
presenting for your consideration
the program which / recommend
ed three years ago, namely, in
crease in the sales and use taxes
and the tax on ordinary income
of individuals :"
According to the Governors
plan, the Maryland sales tax
would be increased from the pres
ent rate of 2G6 to new rate of
go, effective November /, 1858.
The present exemptions of food,
medicine and all sales under 81
cents would be continued.
The tax on ordinary (earned)
income would go from 2a6 to go.
The rate on investment income
would be go on the first $500

remainder, as at present.
Under the Governors proposal,
the new income tax rates would
take effect as of January /, 1858,
but Withholding tables would not
be adjusted until July l. This
means that taxpayers who are
subject to withholding would
have to kick in little more when
they file their 1858 returns in
April of 1859.
The additional revenue TO be
produced by this program is es-
timated at S12,776,050 from the
sales tax and S26.200,00O from the
income tax for total of $38,976,
$50, which exceeds the budget
gap by only SAP, 709.
This program is about as fishy
as everything else that McKeIdiD
has ever done In the fiscal field

the sales tax to take effect three
days before the 1858 elections.
