B—4 PAYCRISS FAED BY OHID SCOOLS 0,000 Teachers Still Lack Wages as Creditors Call for Money. o S By the Associated Press. COLUMBUS, Ohio, January 23— Pinancially embarrassed Ohio schools were described by the State Education Association today as operating on! “good faith,” with 10,000 teachers unpaid to date and 58 per cent of 8ll school districts operating with deficits. One official termed the situation “pessimistic.” It is worse, he said, in non-State aid school districts than in| those given financial aséistance by the | State. 1 “All the schools,” he said, “are op- erating on good faith—how much faith we don’'t know.” Conditions Tighten Up. | “We do know, however, that credi- tors of teachers have reached the point where they are commencing to tighten up. Even the landlady frowns on her. When the credit of the teacher finally is straggled, it can mean but one thing—the closing of schools.” The State Department of Education has a list of school districts in which past-due bills, both for salaries and operating expenses, approximate $3,- 600.000. The Education Association, however, asserted “the debt piles up so fast that no amount of statistics presents the true picture. Before we can _compile them for a single week, the deficit of the pext week or month makes them inegmurate.” This despite widespread curailment of activities, . economies and salary cuts throughout the State. Tax Tangle Blamed. It blamed most of the difficulty on delinquent taxes and revision of the tax duplicate. Finance Director How- ard L. Bevis, however, said a large part of the deficit in State-ald districts has accumulated “from. the .time of Adam,” due to “the extravagance of the local school boards.” He is willing, he said, to pay back salaries. ‘The “average” Ohio school district was described by the.Education De- partment as ore in which since Sep- tember teachers have received salaries for 6 weeks and thanks for the other 10. It said the situation does not ap- ply to the large cities, for which only scattering and incomplete reports are available. FILM COUF;LE INJURED Thelma Todd and New Husband Hurt in Auto Accident.

Schaefer, president of the District Department of the A. F. G. E, who pointed out in this con- nection that “every phase of so-called economy effected through reduced ap- propriations and salary reduction and curtailment of other rights enjoyed by Federal workers has damaging effect on this city.” “Reductions in the Government 5!- roll already are costing local trade a sum of not less than $7,000,000 & year,” he continued. “That amount turned over in commercial transactions brings the entire loss to the business life of this community to a figure, which, ac- cording to recognized economic thought, may be estimated at $40,000,000 to $50,000,000.” Other speakers Wednesday night will be: A. J. Oliver, national organizer; Miss Helen C. McCarty, chairman of) the National Organization Committee, and Mtss Ethel M.
