Mr.. FRESHMAN contends the
compact was improperly adver-
tised before the referendum.
Prompt Riding Expected
It is this question which
State officials are anxious to
clear up before the Governor
decides whether to declare the
compact legally approved by
the voters.
The Governor expects the
Circuit Court to rule quickly on
the request so the suit can be
taken to the Court Of Appeals
for final decision. ...s
Once the compact has been
proclaimed ratified in Mary
land, 1t still would require ap-
proval by Congress and sigma

do not come under the city,S
regulations.
In presenting the proposed
advertising controls today, As.
sistant Corporation Counsel
Milton Norman said they were
backed by the industry and.
were acceptable to city officials.

A new pay scale for Mont
gomery County teachers and
school administrators with
heavier emphasis on advanced
degrees than the present career
recognition program was pro-
posed last night by the Mont
gomery County Education
Association. =
The proposed scale would re-
ward teachers who seek adj
vanced degrees and penalize
those who do MT. II was pro-
lposed BY the organization that
represents over. 80 per cent of
the county's $500 teachers.
Arthur ID. Simonds, jr., MEGA
executive secretary. urged the
county board Of education to
adopt the suggested pay plan as
q fairer and more effective way
Ito attract and retain qualified
teachers than the one Of career
recognition currently being
used.
/ Experience Stressed
The career recognition pro-
gram, q recent innovation in
Montgomery County. provides
I.for extra pay for experienced
teachers with masters degrees
who are chosen on the basis OF
outstanding performance. Thus
far. 500 teachers have been Sc
lected. Advanced degree teach
ers who are not chosen for
career recognition also get
extra pay, but not as much as
those who are selected.
The new proposal, Mr..
Simonds emphasized, lis the
work of our teachers
He said some teachers feel
tremendous discomfort over
the career recognition program
'in some Of its applications. -
The association. however, has
taken no of1cial position on
career recognition.
The teachers request for
more pay comes as the school
board is about to plunge into
preparation of next years
school budget. Teachers re-
ceived pay increases two years
ago but not in the 1960-6l
budget.
Proposed Scale
The associations proposed
scale would:
i. Increase starting salaries
for teachers with bachelors de.
Igrees from $4,000 to $4,700 and

Teachers Ask Roise
In Montgomery Pay

increase the top scale for these
instructors from $500 to
7,755.
2. Limit the amount Of yearly
increases for these teachers
after the fifth year as an In
ducement for them to, seek sd-
vanced training and resultant
higher pay.
3. Permit a teacher to double
his salary In IL years, provid-
ing he obtained q masters de-
gree. Top pay for teachers
with masters degrees would IN
crease from $500 to So,
4. Create higher pay scales
for teachers with 80 hours
credit beyond q bachelors de-
gree or 80 or go hours credit
beyond a masters degree.
S. Jump the starting pay for
school administrators from
$4,000 to $l1,4 and increase
the top salary for these persons
from $2l 900 to $23,030.
8. Provide a top salary for
teachers with a doctors degree
| OF $l0,8l0. The present top is
$500.
Wedding Asked
The teachers spokesman said
poorer teachers should be
"weeded out" during the first
two years. He said the associa-
ton thinks subsequent pay in
creases are more important
than a high starting salary.
The suggested scale for ad-
ministrators contains different
pay levels for principals with
differentiated schools.
For example, a principal with
a school having UP to 10 teach
ers would receive, from $i2,126
to $l3,536. One with q school
having 80 or more teachers
would get $4,000 to $17.578.

And, indeed, attendance
