School Facilities
Urged For Use To
Absorb Spare Time
Chicago (UR) ' Increased
use of public property for con
structive recreational activities
is the key to utilization of the
leisure time that has resulted
from work-saving scientific and
industrial developments, accord
ing to Sydney A. Teller, sociolo
gist and writer.
Millions of dollars of public
school facilities go to waste,
Teller contends, because they
are used oniy for relatively
short, daytime periods and are
closed during summer months.
Teller has been ' connected
with settlement and playground
work. He was a World Fellow
ship delegate to Latin America
in 1943 and a member of the
Pan American Council's Good
Will Mission to Mexico.
"The progress of science, me
chanization, industrialization,
and technocracy means more
and more leisure, which already
i beginning to challenge us in
many directions," Teller said.
"Nothing can stop this increas
ing leisure the problem is,
how are we going to use it?'
"Public, private and commer
cial agencies," he said, "must
combine to work out construc
tive leisure-time programa ior:
adults. . I
"The way to get benefit from'
public property is through use," j
he said. "An empty, unused
$100,000 school building is a
$100,000 loss. Using the public j
schools'only for daytime school;
purposes means that the citizens
and taxpayers get only a 50 per
cent return on their invest-!
ment." I

Social Security
Increase Backed
Washington. Jan. 31 (U.R)
The House Ways and Means
committee made public today a
report suggesting a gradual in
crease in social security taxes to
three per cent by 1947 to meet
the need for increased coverage.
Such an increase, the report
said, would be based on current
benefits but would take into ac
count the fact that additional
unprotected groups probably will
be brought Into the system.
About three Jobs out of five now
are covered by social security.
