Death Toll Edges Upward in Flu Areas
By United Press International
The death toll edged up
ward today in the outbreak
of flu that has hit 21 states.
Thousands lay ill from some
sort of respiratory ailments.
Asian flu was isolated in 11
slates.
Health officials in New
York City reported that dur
ing the first seven weeks of
1963, 818 New Yorkers died
from either pneumonia or in
fluenza. This represents about 300
more victims than normally
would die during a corres
ponding period in an average
year. The health department
said there was no accurate
way to distinguish between
the victims of the two dis
eases. The latest death figures in
other states included West
Virginia 5, Kentucky 3, Indi
ana, Michigan and Florida,
1 each, and in Johnson City,
Kan., several elderly patients
In a rest home.
Different parts of the na-tion-mostly
in the East and
South have been hit by the
virus during the past six
weeks and millions have felt
the effects of fever, fatigue,
cough and sneezes.
In West Virginia, thr-3
more persons died, apparent
ly from flu and pneumonia
complications. Two persons
had died earlier. Doctors in
Summers county have been
treating between 75 and 100
patients each day in their of
fices and making IS to 25
house calls daily.

department confirmed six cas

week end, but A. Clement

California Schools
May Be Required to
Hire More Teachers
Sacramento - fUPB - George
Miller, chairman of the pow
erful Senate finance commit
tee, today said he would in
troduce a bill aimed at
requiring schools to hire more
teachers and fewer adminis
trators. Miller, a Democrat from
Martinez, cited a Senate com
mittee report which said that
California class sizes were
among the largest in the na
tion, mostly because of a "dis
proportionate growth" in the
number of non-teaching staff
members.
"The way to cut class sizes,"
Miller said, "is to get rid of
some of this certificated per
sonnel that doesn't teach."
Along Suggestion Line
Miller said that his bill
would be "along the line" of
suggestions from legislative
analyst A. Alan Post, who laid
out an entirely new system of
apportioning state aid to the
public schools in a recent re
port to the legislature.
Under Post's plan, the stale
would apportion its aid, cur
rently running to about $800
million annually, for the pur
pose of paying teachers' sala
ries and little else. Districts
would be encouraged to hire
teachers rather than adminis
trators to qualify for maxi
mum amounts of state funds.
