Olds, Wortman & Kin PRECEDENT IS HELD BAD Reliable Merchandise Reliable Methods D o THE MORNING OREG ONI AN, FRIDAY, SEPTE3IBER 3, 1920 SCHOOLS Offer of Higher Pay Mathemat ics Department Head Is De clared Responsible. "The effect on the teaching force of Portland of accepting a resignation tt this lara date just before the open ing of school tends toward demorali zation of the whole school system, said "W. V. Woodward, member of the school board yesterday, in comment ing upon the action taken by the board in accepting the resignation or Omar N. Bittner, head of the mathe matics department of Washington High echool. . . "Air. Bittner Is a man of more than ordinary ability and his loss will be felt by everyone concerned." he said. -It is impossible to replace him now. Mr. Bittner tendered'his resiKnation when he received the offered position of superintendent of the Slc.Minnville echools. Mr. Woodward voted against accepting the resignation at the school board meeting, but A. C. Newill. i rank L. Shull and George B. Thomas, who presided as chairman, voted in favor of it. Harmful Kffect Forecast. Mr, Bittner resigned because he could get an increase in pay and title." said Mr. Woodward. "When It becomes known that, based entirely upon pay. an Instructor nas B'"" " his contract and left us, the effect .v.- . v.tc fnir-a -urlil bs harmful. VJl Llio Li ai.i'ih "The suggestion was made that Mr. Dinner's salary be raised, but this was out of tho question because an advance to him would mean an ad vance to other teachers in similar positions In the other echools of the city. The whole question of salaries is now under consideration and at the first of the year Joint action by the teachers and the board will determine the amount of the Increases to be made. Mr. Bittner would have been ope of the beneficiaries of th in crease. More Resignation Expected. "We are likely to have resignations of this character thrust on us con tinually because the shortage of teachers is acute and wages vary in various districts. Districts without teachers are eager to offer as much as possible to obtain members for ineir eiana. "I am very much opposed to this bidding away of teachers at the be ginning of the new school terms. "I consider that the teachers and the board enter into mutual contracts and 1 fear that some of the teachers are losing eight of this fact." GUERNSEY JUDGE SECURED TT, W.
