Umstead Explains Stand On Amendment
To Increase The Salaries Of Teachers

Editors note: Since the follow
ing dispatch from Rep. John Um-
stead was written, the House kill
ed the teacher pay increase amend
ment. Rep. Umstead led the drive
in the House to remove the teacher
pay provision from the biennial
budget bill
BY Rep. John W. Umstead Jr.
When wrote my report last
week | had high hopes that the
assembly would be able to ad-
journ on the Goth On Friday all
hopes of adiourning on that date
a anished when the house passed
an amendment to the appropria-
tions bill that would give five mil
lion dollars each year of the BIZ
ennium to the state board of edu-
cation to increase teachers Salar-
les. This was in addition to the fif.
teen million in the bill reported to
the house and the one under con-
sideratiOn when the amendment
was presented. This action on the
part of the house means that the
budget is out of balance more than
ten million dollors. Under our bud
get act, the legislators cannot ad-
journ until the budget has been
balanced.
1t has been evident since the
introduction of the bills implement
ing the l959-6l budget report that
the people OF North Carolina would
demand through their representa-
tiVes that present services be con-
tlnued and in certain fields these
services be expanded. When the
Wgures in regard to the income
taxes came out the administra-
ton increased the estimated TeVen-
ue take some sixteen million dol.
lars over the figures in the original
report This was thought to be
enough by many and there were
hopes that the worries of the sub
committee on appropriations had
been taken care Of. AS this COM
mittee considered the requests for
additional funds from the educa.
tl0nal forces on all levels, along
with public welfare and the men,
tai institutions, it became evident
that the sixteen million would not
be sufficient. About this time the
budget bureau again Increased
their estimated revenue by some
thing more than three million dol
lars based on the report Of the
Commissioner of Revenue.
When the subcommittee received
this report they thought they could
balance the budget and at the
same time bring an appropriations
bill to the full committee that would
meet with their approval. To do
this they had to cut the minimum

nine-months public school items.
This was necessary since the finan-
ce committee had not passed a
single measure that would have
placed more money in the revenue
take. In reality they had passed
several bills involving small sums
that when added up meant more
than six hundred thousand dollars
to be deducted from the original
budget estimates made by the bud

The report of the subcommittee
to the full committee did not please
a single member of the 25-man
committee. There were various
requests that we would like to have

Wutch On The
POTOMAC
by
Robt. G. Spivack

THE JOHNSON : DIRKSEN
NON LEADERSHIP - Lyndon
Johnson, often called the "Sena-
tor From Outer Space, is still
congratulating himself on his
spectacular triumph in whipping
the Senate liberals and saving
the filibuster for the Old South.
Some Washington writers have
hailed this as further proof of
Johnson's genius as a maneuver-
er Others cite it as proof that no
one in the liberal camp was ca
| pable of the ruthlessness or
toughness demonstrated by the
Gentleman from Texas.
Johnson himself insists that the
Senate was only reflecting the
popular will. What is that will,
| presumably as reflected in last
November's election? In John
sons opinion:
"That will is will, in all Sec
tons, for progress, for unity, for
reason and for courage. All these
high goals have been served by
| the Senate's course.
X X X
His prose is not likely to go
down in history alongside Lin
coins Gettysburg Address, but
it's worth examining because it
was the last thing Johnson had
to say before the Senate voted on
his alleged filibuster "compro-
mise.
What unity" is Johnson talk
ing about? 1t could be he was re-
ferring to his new arrangements
with Everett Mckinley Dirksen,
the Senate Republican leader.
After all it was Dirksen who
really saved the day for Johnson
and the old South.
AS new leader he could have
swung Is or 20 Republican votes
towards the civil rights side of
| the argument. That would have
marked Dirksen's independence
and cost Johnson his victory? But
Dirksen is already making it
clear that he hopes, wants and
expects to be Johnson's partner
land by no means silent partner)
in running the Senate. So a Dirk
sen-Johnson unity" has clearly
been achieved.
Of course, there are some IT,
100000 Negroes excluded from
this new unity. Where do they
! go for leadership and help? Ger
tainly not to Dirksen and John
son.
Then there are the innocent
white school children of Little
Rock, Norfolk, Charlottesville,
Front Royal, all being deprived
of an education, because Ark
ansas and Virginia politicians be-
lieve it is politically expedient
to pander to the prejudices OF
their elders?
They must be impressed by
Johnson's talk of progress" and
senatorial courage" in retaining
the status quo. They will GER
tainly remember it when they
are barred entry to good colleges
/ because they are under-educated.

standards as a politician can his
