Teacher Pay
Referendum
Is Defeated

Last Saturday voters in Sea-
ford turned down a proposal to
supplement teacher salaries in
the district to keep the recent
Kent-Sussex rejection record
complete.
The last such vote to fail was
in Smyrna, when an overwhelm-
ing majority in February oppos-
ed tax increase to raise teach
er pay.
Seaford voters turned out in
heavy numbers TO vote down a
proposed increase that would
have provided each teacher and
administrator with $500 yearly
above his present salary. The
vote was 1,OO8 to 703. A spirited
campaign had been held on the
issue. 1t had the endorsement
of the local PTA and the board
of education.

ed funds, taxes would have been
increased % cents on the 800
assessment of real estate and
an increase of 81 per person in
the capitation or poll tax.
Proponents cited that several
school districts in the state al
ready provide for supplement
tary pay to teachers in addition
to the basic state salaries and
the increase would have allow
ed the local schools to compete
more equitably for qualified
teachers.
However, those opposed to the
proposal contended that taxes
had reached a Saturation point.
Both those in favor of the taxa
ton boost and those on the oppo-
site side had conducted spirited
campaigns on the issue. This re-
suited in one of the biggest turn
out of voters in this district on
a school issue.
