The Central Labor council is op posed to any effort to remove from the Portland schools married women teachers who have other, means of support, according to a statement is sued yesterday by W. E. Kimsey, sec retary. The statement was Inspired by rumors that organized labor was behind the movement to oust such teachers from the public schools. "One of the fundamental things. said Mr. Kimsey, "always striven for by organized labor has been the es tablishment and proper maintenance of public schools presided over by efficient, unhampered instructors, so that our children may receive the greatest possible benefit for the time they spend in school. "While the council is in hearty sympathy with and will lend its un qualified support to any reasonable effort to relieve the unemployment situation, it realizes that there Is in reality a shortgae of efficient teach ers and is therefore opposed to the removal of any who happen to be married." onrcfiO'v r;iRi 14, toijxcest GRANGER IN AMERICA. i ' ' t ' 'x -1 ' f V Kathryn A.
