Pay Increases
Included in

(Story also on page 1.)
Pay increases aggregating about
$165,000 went into the 1948-49 Sa
lem school district budget ap
proved Tuesday night by the
school board and citizens budget
committee, without change, upon
recommendation of Superintendent
Frank B. Bennett.
Budget items for salaries of ad
ministration, principals, teachers
and other employes aggregate
$1,172,655, compared with last
year's $1,000,792 and reflect a pay
increase of about 15 per cent.
George Grabenhorst, a citizens
committee member, presided at the
joint session.
The $1,620,850 general fund is
about $13,000 under last year's
general fund, despite the pay rais
es, but this is due primarily to
slicing appropriations for new
. building and sites from $260,000

Five-Point Program tor Salem
Outlined by Recreation Expert"
By Lester Cour
A five-point plan to provide Salem with a recreation program
to include both the youth and adult population was outlined by
James E. Rogers, Washington, D. C, in a speech to members of the
Seiem Recreation association at the chamber of commerce Tuesday
night.
Rogers, special field representative for the National Recreation
association, highly praised Salem's present facilities and stressed
that new civic leadership now in
evidence should carry the city's
long-range program well along its
way ..within 10 years.
His five-point plan calle for
setting up a city recreation board
or body made up of city officials,
school officials, and citizens; estab
lishment of a year-around recrea
tion program; cooperation be
tween city government and school
board; a separate appropriation in
the city budget for recreation,
and hiring of a full-time recrea
tion director.
Need Larger Budget
Rogers, who toured the city
Tuesday to inspect parks and
schools, strongly urged develop
ment of Bush's pasture into a park
capable of handling all types ol
recreation, including week-end
camping parties. Gaps that exist
in the city's park facilities must be
filled by a budget large enough to
buy needed equipment and build
ings, he said.
The year-round recreation pro
gram must include all types of ac
tivities including sports, drama
tics, music, religion and out-of-town
outings, he told the meeting.
People must be educated to real
ize the value of such a program so
they will approve a special levy to
finance it, he said.
"Recreation is the largest indus
try in America today," Rogers
said, and is a "cradle to grave pro
gram," not confined only to chil
dren. Adults, with more free time
because of shorter working; hours,
represent a great danger today,
and offer a challenge to every city
to provide sufficient recreation to
take up the idle hours, Rogers
said.
Must Keep Employes Happy
American industry is building
new plants only in cities with suf
ficient entertainment facilities,
Rogers said, because the compan
ies realize they must keep their
employes satisfied off the job as
well as at work.
Children are any city's greatest
asset and are entitled to facilities
for play as well as education,
Rogers said. "Recreation is not
only essential to eliminate juven
ile delinquency, but absolutely
necessary for youth in everyday
life," Rogers asserted.
Rogers said that recreation was
accepted as a function of govern
ment in 25,000 cities throughout
the United States today. Its need
is just as great as that of schools,
sewers and streets, he stated.
Rogers was introduced by Wil
lard H. Shumard, T a coma, north
west representative of the asso
ciation who is accompanying Rog
ers on a tour of Oregon and
Washington cities.
Meets With Committee
Earlier Tuesday Rogers and
Shumard met with the building
committee of the Salem Mem
orial Auditorium association to
discuss civic auditoriums and their
designs in other cities. They also
conferred with City Manager J.
L. Franzen and members of the
lying-Range Planning commission
