' GENUINE lIlUU DURHAM TOBACCO Vote 302 X Yes For 4 State Road Bond Limit In asking the Hat of Oregon to rota I favorably for tht two-mill elementary 1 school mssaurs, popularly known ai the Children's Rights Bill, the teach era of tbs state of Oregon are not ask Ing for an Increase In salary. The) are merely working for fair and equal distribution of taies (cr the sup port of these basic schools, that tht entire state will be taxed and not only the organised school districts, aa at preseut It the case. Tho short! ge of of teachers In Ore gon la growing so rapidly that thi situation Is f arming In the extreme Last year 100 ishoolt were closed, and In those 100 schools, 230 rooms were closed and close to 4000 pupils wen unable to bar the Inatructlon thai rightly should hart been theirs. What was the ceui'T It was due entirely to a abortags of teachers. Why? Because the teach n are being underpaid and are leav Ing the profession for better-paid work. They have to do this. Some day Ore gon must come to the rescue of the teacher. Now, It la being asked to sart tht child, the roter of tomorrow. Do we want him educated! Sure. Only recently In New York did the question of raising tb teachers' sal aries com up before the legislature and It was due to a lack of sufficient Information as to ths extent to which they should be Increased, and the ability of communities to pay Increases bar led ths legislate leaden to de cide to postpone, final revlalon ot the teachers stiary law until another session. Tb temporary readjustment of sal- arlet will fix tht minimum rat tor tb rural school teacher at 1850, while in the larger country districts the lowest paid elementary teachers will get 1900. The minimum In elementary schools In third-class cities will be 11.100 Instead of $820 a at present, and that la high schools $1,150 Instead of $940. Second-class ottles must raise their minimum salary of elementary teachers from $800 to $1,100, and that of high school teacher from $1,000 to $1,400. In order to prevent New York City draining the adjoining cltlea of teach ers, Yonkers, Mount Vernon, Whit Plains, and New Rochell are to be! required to pay within $5(0 ot the rates In effect In New York City. Flat Increases of $550 orsr the March 1 rates art mandated upon Syracuse and ot $400 on Buffalo and Rochester.! These higher salaries wtU do much to make the teaching service more attractive. Tb New York City rates r to be fixed by committee now at work upon: the problem of determining how the city's quota ot the direct state tax of 1H mtlls-$lz,000,000 shall be dis tributed among more than 24,000 mem- ben of the supervising staff. The average increase of $500 would aeem small in comparison with the other In creases wen It not for the fact that the governor laat month signed a bill giving ths New York City teachen an Increase on June 1, Six thousand six hundred and three teachen will re ceive from 80 to 40 per cent more pay than they received on Dec 31, 1919, while yoSO others of k total ot 24,123 will bare their salaries Increased from (0 to (0 per cent But the minimum salary on Junt 1 will be only $1,005. In redrafting the provisions ot the state-wide salary bill affecting New York City the Joint legislative commit tee to which the task waa assigned has raised this minimum to $1,(00 and has so revised other telarisa that those grades ot the servlc where the chief shortage ot teachen txleta ahall offer salaries that will attract and hold the best teachen. In no other way can. the standards ot teaching be maintain d, not to aay improved. ' When the legislative committee re ports next year whatever other grades of th service hive not received du and proper consideration can he pro vided for In ths general salary Increase measure.
