He cited as an example. that IS

TO raise teacher pay S275. Under
the proposed bill the county would

additional 20 percent money ac-
cording to state formula for the

Hawkins feels the passage Of the
proposed salary bill is vital to
the welfare Of the county. perhaps
more than any other county in
the state irlsmuch as. the county
must depend largely upon state
aid to operate the schools.
He said it would provide the
county with a salary scale that
would place it in a better competi-
tive position with the rest OF the
state and with neighboring states
in retaining and recruiting teach
er requirements. Such salary
scale cannot be provided by the
county
1t would provide the county
extra money needed for operation

It will relieve the necessity for
demands upon the County Com

would have to be made. Hawkins
