School Head
Asks Teacher
Co-operation

District School Supt. Carl r.
Hansen has recommended that
the current voluntary plan for
a longer teachers school day
be extended through next year.
A superintendent's circular
released yesterday showed that
the overwhelming majority Of
elementary, Junior and senior
high school principals backed
a plan tried out during January
which asked teachers to remain.
in school until $3.50 pm. instead
Of 8 pm.
DR.. Hansen recommended
that the additional time be
used in interviews with parents,
individual help for students,
planning the next days lesson
and attendance at professional
meetings.
District teachers organiza-
tions had objected strongly to
the plan last fall and early this
year.
Under the voluntary plan,
teachers were asked to notify
their principals if they wished
to leave early for personal or
other reasons. But school Off
cials said there was no sharp
jump in requests to leave early.
The time requested amounted
to only 10 per cent Of the
teaching day for senior high
schools. and 81 per cent each
for junior highs and elemen-
tary schools.
OF elementary school prin-
cipals, a poll showed 104 to l in
favor Of the voluntary plan. |
Junior high principals backed
the idea 10 to S, and senior
high school principals 10 to 2.
The plan affects about 400
teachers. 1t is designed to |
standardize the school day for |
academic teachers at 8:45 am.
to $3.50 pm. in line with prac-
tice In other major cities and
neraby school systems.
Vocational high school teach
ers report for duty at S:15 am,
leaving at 3 pm.
The circular was distributed
at q meeting Of school princi-
pals and officers at Roosevelt |
High School yesterday after
noon.

With Press Aides
To Governors
By the Associated Press


Press secretaries of the so
State Governors have been in
vited to Washington February
"a to meet with White House
Press Secretary Pierre Salinger.
Mr.. Salinger says the invita-
tions went out about two weeks
ago and most Of the press Sec
retaries have accepted.
He said that obviously the
get-together will be on nom
partisan basis. It will be SINH
lar, he said, yesterday, to brief
ings that have been held at the
White House for newspaper
executives. officials of radio
and television and other groups,
such as Government press rela-
ton officers.
Many press secretaries write
speeches for their bosses, Mr.,
Salinger told a reporter, and it
was thought 1t might be helpful
for those on the Governors
staffs to receive a background
briefing on the. Federal Gov
ernment's foreign and domestic
policies.
The press secretaries prob
ably will get to see President
Kennedy, unless he should be
out Of town, although Mr.. Sal
niger said he does not know at
this point whether the Presi-
dent will receive them.

Cuba Appealing
For Cane Cutters
BY the Associated Press

The Communist regime in
Cuba, q country with q chronic
over-supply of workers, is ap-
pealing urgently for Cubans to
go into the fields to cut cane
to keep the country's sugar
mills operating.
Trade circles reported this
yesterday and said the situation
may well mean increasing dis
enchantment among the Cuban
people with the Fidel Castro
dictatorship.
The appeals for workers,
broadcast over radio and tele-
vision stations, and printed in
newspapers, mentioned that the
shortage of cane cutters made
it necessary to consider "the
organization of volunteer work
battalions."
Sugar experts here said the
situation, acknowledged repeat
edly in broadcasts. may mean
that the key industry in Cuba's
economy Is threatened with
collapse under the Soviet style
collectivism now practiced in
Cuba.

GOV. EGAN
 Urges Creation Of Cabinet Level Dept. of Fisheries

JUNEAU tR = Gov. Wm Egan disclosed today he has again urged President Kennedy to create, soon. a cabinet-level Department of Fisheries and Oceanography
 In letter dated Dec l5, Egan told Kennedy that fisheries are no longer local matters, but inter- national in scope
 In several coastal areas of Alaska Egan wrote, American fishermen are competing with fish ermen from both Russia and Japan in fisheries which historically have been exclusively American.
 Unless we act, these pressures will increase rather than dimin- ish."
 Egan said American fishermen along the east coast, in the Gulf of Mexico and on the tuna. grounds off South America are also in- vloved in international eomplica- tions.
 Despite these pressures, which have been accompanied by a drop from second to fifth place in world fisheries production, the United States has refused to give fisheries problems their true significance" Egan said.
 1t has sought to meet the com l plexities of world fisheries econ omics hastily and haphazardly with no effort to develop well reasoned and stable solutions.''
 Egan said that in an "era whel growing emphasis is being placed upon the international problems 1 of fisheries regulation, fisheries should occupy significant place within the structure of our federal government.
 International questions concern ing fisheries should be considered by men well versed in all phases of this field-and by men who can speak with authority and weight of cabinet prestige behind them"

 Second, work on streets and drains is imperative.
