Counter-ProposuI
On Teacher Puy
By ANDREW w. BINGHAM
Star Staf Writer

Star Stafi Writer
Walter N. Tobriner, president
of the Board of Education,
charged today that city officials
have made IAN unwarranted
intrusion" into board affairs.
He referred to the Depart
ment of General Administra-
ton as "a self-conStituted De-
partment of Education in the
District Building"
In a three-page statement
which he said he regretted hav-
ing to make, Mr.. Tobriner
charged that city officials are
"presuming to exercise an edu-
cational Judgment wholly be-
yond their rightful authority
and competence"
His sharp criticism was di-
rected at the city'S proposal,
prepared by the General Ad-
ministration Department, to
raise the salaries of teachers
and other school personnel by
about 9 per cent.
Suggests New Policies
This proposal, which
amounted to a counter-offer to
the school boards recon-
mendation for a $50 million
pay increase, was revealed
yesterday.
1t not only cut the boards
proposal by almost SO per cent,
but also suggested several new
policies-including the intro
duction of a merit pay plan for
science and math teachers, as
well as superior" new teachers
in other fields, and an increase
in the minimum starting pay
for teachers.
Mr.. Tobriner said today that
these new policies had pre-
viouSly been discussed-and re-
jected-by the school board,
which has the statutory obliga-
ton to control the public
schools"
I'VE cannot allow to exist
within the District of Colum-
bia two bodies on the municipal
level having competing au-
thority in educational matters,
he said.
He warned board members,
at their regular monthly meet
ing, that IF this board is not
constantly alert to preserve its
statutory obligation . it will
soon find that such control is
exercised elsewhere in the
municipal government"
"Unwarranted Intrusion"
Mr.. Tobriner said that, al
though the city's recommended
tionS might be "well-inten-
toned and seemingly generous, /"
they represent IAN unwarrant-
ed intrusion into matters en-
trusted solely to the determina-
tion of the Board of Educa-
ton"
Either the board should Com
tinue to exercise its legal func-
tion Of determining within
proper fiscal limitations the
administration of the school
system, or it should surrender
that function to a body legally
designated to succeed it, but
surely not to a self-conStituted
Department of Education in
the District Building" he said.
The board president excluded
the District Commissioners
from his criticism. The Com
missioners so far have not
taken any action on the pay
proposals Mr.. Tobriner said
that board members have al
ways found them most re-
sponive to all school problems. &"
Lawson j. Cantren, acting
superintendent of schools this
week, recommended to the
board that it reaffirm it's
original salary recommenda-
ton, despite proposals of the
General Administration De-
partment.

In KeyPost

BY CECIL HOLLAND
Star STAFF Writer

Representative Chester Bowles
of Connecticut likely will be
selected for chairman of the
Platform Committee of the
Democratic National Conven-
ton, according to reports cir
culating here today.
The Arrangements Commit
tee, headed by Democratic Ma
tional Chairman Paul M. But
Ter. was considering this and
other convention posts at a
meeting in Los Angeles.
The committees recommen-
dations for the chairmen of
the Platform and Credentials
Committees were expected to
be announced later in the day.
A committee official said the
selection of a permanent con-
vention chairman and conven-
ton keynoter probably would
be delayed for several weeks
The Selections must be ratified
by the full convention which
opens in Los Angeles July II.
2 Interested in Post
If Mr.. Bowles should be
selected for the platform post
this probably would rule out
chances for Representatives
BoggS of Louisiana or Boiling
of Missouri to become perma-
nent chairman. 1t would be
unlikely, it was said, that the
arrangements committee would
dip into the House for more
than one Of the top convention
posts.
Both Mr.. Boggs and Mr..
Boiling expressed interest in
being named permanent chair
man after Speaker Rayburn
stepped aside to work for the
nomination of his fellow Texan,
Senator Lyndon B. johnson, for
President.
The Bowles selection also
would set up a situation where
the permanent Guardianship
would go to Senator and the
keynoter role to a Governor.
Senator Gore of Tennessee
was said to be a leading con-
tender for permanent chair
man, and Gov. Gaylord A. Nell
son of Wisconsin for keynoter.
Follow House Rules
The convention proceedings
are carried on under rules
very much like those of the
House and it has been the
practice to select as permanent
chairman someone familiar
with them. Senator Gore served
in the House before his elec-
ton to the Senate in 1948.
Mr.. Bowles, former Governor
of Connecticut and Ambassa-
dor to India, is serving his first
term in the House. He has
been mentioned as a dark horse
possibility for the Democratic
nomination. Recently he be-
came a foreign policy adviser
to Senator Kennedy in the
Massachusetts, Democrats bid
for the nomination.

GSA Prodded
On Lack Of
Negro Hirngs
Advisory Group
Urges Action on
Federal Projects

The Presidents Committee
on Government Contracts today
asked the General Services Ad-
mlniStration to take appro-
pirate action" to compel con-
tractors on two Federal pro-
jectS here to live up to their
pledge to avoid discrimination
in hiring.
The action came after COM
mittee member John Roosevelt
reported that no Negro cleo
tricians had yet been hired to
work on Federal Office Building
No. 6 on independence avenue
S.W. or the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition Museum of Natural His
tory and Technology on Con-
stitution avenue NV, despite
nondiscrimination pledges the
contractors gave the committee
six weeks ago.
Court Action Possible
An informant said that if
GSA accepted the committee
recommendation it could:
/. Ask the Justice Depart
ment to seek a court induction
against the firms for enforce
ment Of the anti-discrimination
clause in their contracts.
2. Bar the firms from bidding
on future contracts.
3. Or cancel their present
contracts.
He said the last course of &C
ton was unlikely, because of
the large sums of money in
volved in the work under prog
reSS.
A GSA spokesman at the
meeting indicated it would con-
duct its own investigation to
determine whether qualified
Negroes had applied for work
on the projects, before deciding
what action to take.
Any action would concern
the prime contractors on the
projects. McCloskey g. Co., and
Norair Engineering Corp.
Agreed to Hire Negroes
The firms pledged March 8
they would hire electricians
and other workers without re-
gard to their race. Complaints
had been filed with the Pres
ident's Committee that Negro
electricians could not gain en-
ployment on the Federal prof.
ects, because the contractors
relied on referrals from the all
white Local 26 Of the Inter-
national Brotherhood Of Elec-
trical Workers for tn cir
workers.
Mr.. Roosevelt told today's
meeting he had been informed
by officials of the Washington
Urban League that some 18
qualified electricians had been
referred to the electrical sub
contractors on the projects, the
Howard P. Foley Co. and the
Walter c. Doe g. Co. None, he
said, have been hired.
The committee also asked
GSA to take appropriate &C
ton" to secure equal job rights
for Negro rodmen on these
projects. Mr.. Roosevelt said he
had been informed that four
Negro rodmen had been on the
"referral list" of Local 201 of
the Rodmen's Union for some
time and had not been sent to
job sites for possible employ
ment.
No Enforcement Powers
The Presidents Committee,
headed by Vice President Nixon,
is assigned the job of securing
compliance with the standard
anti-discrimination clause in
Government contracts. 1t has
no direct enforcement powers,
but serves in an advisory
capacity to the Government
agencies like GSA.
Under the terms of the con-
tract, a spokesman explained,
employers are responsible for
thier hiring practices, even if
the source of the discrimina-
ton is q union.
