H (Copyright. John F. Dille Co.) SCORES DEDUCTIONS FROM TEACHERS’ PAY Peyser Declares Loss of Salary During Absence Is Dis- criminatory. Payment of substitute teachers of the District public schools out of the saldrles of the teachers who are absent was described ‘unjust and discriminatory” by Capt. Julius I Peyser, former member of the Board of Education, now commander of the local department of the American Legion, in a request he made to the department’s school committee yester- day to investigate the reasons for the system. ‘The committee was asked to ascer- tain the necessity for depriving the teachers of their salary during the time they are absent in order to pa their substitutes. This policy is dis- criminatory, he said, because the up- per teachers and supervisors of the ‘Washinglon school system are not thus penalized for their absences. The teachers of the Capital's public schools are paid little enough, Capt. Peyser sald, without further handi- capping them by deducting pay for days they are forced to be absent. - —.
