HOLD UP TEACHERS SALARY INCREASES Board . Cannot Grant Revised Schedule This Year The ' monthly meeting of the school board was held yesterday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in the school superintendent’s office on South High street and the teacher's councll submitted a report on the re- HOIts of a survey of the salary sched- ules In various citles and a proposed new salary schedule for teachers. This was referred to the teachers committee and the flnance commit- tee which constitute the salary com- mittee of the board. The board will not be able to re- Vise the salarles this year becauso of the fact that the appropriations for the year have 'already ' been made and the adoption a new | schedule requiring more money than is called for, would mean a larger appropriation. The report is, in part, as follows: “The Mlst of ealary schedules of ether citles was made from replles % a questionnaire sent out by the @mmittee and from information ob- talned from a report, made by the National Education Assoclation, “Many localities are at present working on a revision of thelr sched- nles either with a@iew to changing to other types of schedules or to raising the maxima of thelr present echedules, “Some are using an identical schedule with even pay for men and women. Some are using what is call- cd the single salary schedule where- by the same salary is paid to teach- ers with equal training and experl- ence regardless of whether they teach in elementary or in junior or senfor high schools and pays a larg- er salary to teachers in similar posi- tions who posses larger amounts of academic and professional training. “It may be seen .on the list that many of the small localities around New Britain have as high and in some instances a highes maxima than New Britain, and that cities nearer the gize and wealth of New Britain have In every instance a higher maximum. “According to statistics obtained by the National Education Assocta- tion there have been two declded in- | creases in teachers’ salaries, in gen- eral, throughout the United State since 1920, “New Britain changed her sched- ule to meet a very urgent need in 1920 and has not changed the gen- eral schedule since that time al- though the salaries of some of the administrative officers and depart- mental heads have been changed since then, After careful study of other schedules of our own present | gchedule, of the need of a change in our present schedule, and of the ability of*Necw Britain to meet the obligations brought about by such changes as we deem expedient, your committee .does . recommend a change beeause of the following def- inite reasons: “1, The salary scale is below that o other cities which makes no high- «r demanda upon their teachers, “2, The salary schedules deter- mines the school board's chances of retaining in its service the better toachers when one school fixes the salary at a certain level | and that of a neighboring city main- | tains a level from $300 to $1,000 | | | FOR -THE PLUNGE In Deep, Cool and Inviting Waters of Lake and Ocean Bathing " Suits that are tailored as carefully as your frocks ||| and as becoming ‘ IN A VARIETY OF [f| COLORS and DESIGNS || $2 95 Harding Blue Lipstick Green | plles, Miiton Bradley Co., city will'attract ‘the‘better teache: and that the wschools of that ol will benefit ly. “The salary schedule adopted in 1920 aided New’ Britain in retaining In its service 'its teachers, Without any doubt the teacher turnover in the past five years has been much below that of the previous five years, This 1is exactly as good for the schools as a small labor turn- over is for any Industrial econcern, The teachers’ salary schedule determines the quality of people at- tracted to the schools of New Brit- aln. “To administer the laboratory sys- tem successfully, thoroughly trained and skilled teachers are needed. To secure such a salary schedule must be offered attractive enough to off- |set what, to candidates, look Iike disadvantages, namely: The need of preparation for state examinations, the long working day, and the time and labor required in making out the laboratory assignments, “4. The salary schedule - deter- mines the professional growth of the teachers {in setvice, After the change In the schedule in 1920 and the bonts allowance, more and more |of the teachers of this city have been |engaged in professional study dur- ing both the summer months and the' school year. .A further increase will tend to increase the number of [such teachers, “5, The cost of commodities has risen since 1920, Hence, by deprecia- tion, the salary is less. | “6. The maximum should be | high enough to enable the teacher who makes teaching his life work to maintain a standard of living con- | sistent with his greatest usefulness |to the community and to make pro- vision for his old age. “7. The town's ability to pay is | evident from its own prosperity as |shown by its consistent growth. steady work and building and fac- | tory "appreciation. | Ginns fucceeds Wiggin | The question of appointing a suc- i cessor to Paul E. Wiggin as direct- or of the Junior High school shops Ibrought the first discussion at the meeting. Mrs. Laura Mangan thought that William Gritzmacher should be appointed as he has been lemployed in the shops for 10 years. She objected to the naming of !James H. Ginns. Superintendent | Holines outlined his qualifications (and when a vote was taken on it, all except Mrs. Mangan voted for {Mr. Ginng. Others appointed at the meeting were C. J. Draqgeau, direct- or of French, senior high school land junior high schools: W. !Hamm, physical director to succeed { Mr. Morrissey at the Elfhu Burritt !Junior high: Harriet Stone, Grade | 8, Central Junior high:; Catherine | Grace, Mildred Chambers and Mary | McGuire, clementary grades. Mr. | |Hamm s at present in Bellows | Falls. i “The members of the committee | iare unanimous in the opinion that | |the time is ripe for New Britain to| adopt an identical salary schedule' for men and women. | “The tendency of modern salary tee ‘deems it only fair to the New Britain teachers that their schedule be of this type. “The present schedule may be reasily adjusted to this type. If it is deferred until some future time the | expense of raising the salarles of (the women to the level of the sal- ‘urh!.! of the men may be much] board |greater. | “The committee also feels that a teacher at the end of his third year ;of service has become more stable in the profession. He has accepted | the profession as a life work, and | his services are worth a higher in- | crease from that time on. “We therefore ralsed the mini- mum in the elementary grades to | $1,100, then making the increasing | inerement $100 for 2 years and !150} after that until the tenth year fis| reached. “In the Junior High School sched- | ule we have ralsed the minimum of | the women teachers to that of the | men teachers and the maximum of both $150 more than the former | maximum of the men. | “In the Senlor High School we have placed the minimum at $50 higher than the former minimum | for men and raised the maximum of both $200 more than the former| maximum of the men, “Tn both the Junior and Senfor| High school schedules we have fol- lowed the same system in respect !o‘ the increasing increment. { “We therefore submit to you this| report with schedule worked out as; explained. Schedule Recommended | The schedule recommended is as follows: Senior High, $1,650, $1,750, $1,900, $2,050, $2,200, $2,350, $2,500 | $2,650, $2,800, the scale being gmd-v uated from the second to the tenth year; Junior High $1,600, $1,800, $1,750, $1,900, $2,060, $2,200, $2,350, $2,500 $2,650 the increase noted be- ing made from year to year; Ele-| mentary, $1,100, $1,200, $1,300 Xl.-‘ 450, $1,600, $1,750, $1,900, $2,050, 1 $2,200, $2,350, the increases noted | being made from year to year.

Underwdod, who helped write the first income | tax law, in an address in Montgom- lery, Alabama, last night, declared | for a flat two per cent income tax |and a maximum surtax of 13 per | cent the pre war figures. | President Coolidge has formed some ideas on the subfect and be. lleves a considerable reduction in the tax load could be effected by | eliminating the federal levy on in- heritances, In this respect he agrees with Sepator Reed Smoot of Utah, chairman of the senate finance committee, who has predicted that the next congress will make an ef- fort toward lowering taxes. The Utah senator's view that th states should be called upon in tur to quit the income tax field, how. ever, suggests in the president's mind that such a step would present | many difficulties. The revenue of | some states, he feels, would be seri- | ously curtalled if they were forced'| to abolish their taxes on incomes, The thirteen per cent surtax mixi- mum advocatéd by Senator Under- wood s about half that contemplat- ed In the Mellon plan and one third of the rate on the present law, which was developed by republican insurgents amfl democrats in coali- | tion. He suggested also that estate | taxes be reduced to the pre-war | rate of 10 per cent from the pres-| ent 40 per cent. Senator Smoot said he believed the surtax rate would be reduced to | 25 per cent or perhaps less. He! predicted that increased exemption | would’ be accorded small incomes and that the tax imposed on them! | would be lowered, | The reduced rates proposed by Senator Underwood would, in his opinfon provide sufficient revenue | for the government and if not, he| suggested that some of the federal | bureaus be abolished until expendi- tures do not equal revenue, | “I would slow down the govern- ment,” he declared, “before it slows down the business of the nation.” | The high surtax rates, he snl'i,i had made it more profitable for the‘ man of large means to ‘“abandon productive enterprise and invest | re he need not fear con- He pointed out that un- der the pre-war law nearly 30 per cent of the revenue came from in- comes of more than $100,000 and in| 1921 only four and one half per| cent was realized from that source.
