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.

NO PROPERTY TAX-NO DIRECT TAX
NO INCREASE Irl AUTO LICENSE FEES
NO INCREASE OF GASOLINE TAX
Keep these three facts in mind. The present auto license feet and
gasoline tax will pay both the principal and internet on all the bondi
under this amendment, and will yield an annual surplus besides for Other
state highway work. No additional taxation of any kind.
FEDERAL FUNDS MUST BE MATCHED
Oregon must have sufficient Highway Funds to match Federal apportion,
menta or Oregon cannot get the benefit ot Fedeial money for Oregon Roads.
Increasing this cotwtitutional limit is a necessity. Unless limit i increased,
either atate roads cannot be completed for many, many yean, or most be finished
by direct property taxation. This measure averts direct property tax for staU
highwsys and makes early completion possible. Let's get tht roads built now.
