The towns of Norwich, North ‘Ston- ington, Ledyard and Preston were represented. Robert W. Perkins, receiver of the Shore . Line Electric- system, attended the meeting at the invitation of the committee.. They went.over with him the figures as to the cost of operation of the Norwich and Westerly line. The gross receipts and expenses for the past year were taken up and ‘dis- sed. The figures show that the y month in which the line show-, ed a profit was last August. During that month the profit was $4,000. The committee discussed the possi- of purchasing the line and of operating it independently of the Shore Line. It was brought out at the meeting that the Shore Line would have to advance the rates at least 25 per cent. in order to cre- ate receipts large enough to show a profit, provided there was no decrease n the amount of travel. | After discussing the matter from { various angles the committee decided to take no_action Monday afternoon hut to hold ancther meeting in the near future for this purpose.

Telephone 50 West Main St RESTAURANTS WANTED WHEN YOU ARE LN TOWN, TRY THE VICTORY LUNCH. 202 Mais St e e EXPLAINS WHAT SALARIES ARE OFFERED TO TEACHERS Because of what seems to them to be a misunderstanding on the part of the public eoncerning the salaries of- \| -ferec to teachers by the town schoel committee, the publicity committee of the, Teachers' league issued the fol- low:ng statement Monday night: On March 6th a petition signed by 93 teachers was presénted to the com- miftee requesting additional compen- sation to the present year's salary to the amount of §200. Many towns, in and nut of the state, realizing the con- stantly increasing cost of living, have granted additional pay to_their teach- ers for the present year. The commit- tee felt that they were unable to comsy ply with the request of the teachers. In presenting the contracts for the year 1920-1921 Superintendent Graham announced the following action taken by the committee: That they voted a flat increase of $200 to each teacher for the coming year, making the teachers’ salaries for 1920-1921 range from $900 to §1.200. The majority of ; the teachers will receive less than $1,200. The committee established a maxi- muny of $1,350° to $1,450 to be attained by automatic increases of $75 yearly. ‘u maximum can be obtained by no teacher, regardless of her years of ser- vice, until the year $1923-1924, because the $75 yearly increase does not. begin until 1921-1922. The maximum-$1,350 to $1,450 is not available to meet present needs. These teachers who have not yet reached their maximum will receive $40 in addition to their flat increase. Thus the younger teach- ers will receive an increase of $240 | compared to $200 for maximum teach- ers. Inexperienced teachers entering th® service 1920-1921 will reach, In seven years, the maximum, which the teachers with years of experience to their credit must now serve an addi- tional four to’attain. "Because of almost unanimous dfs- satisfaction with the decision of the board, the Teachers' league sent n delegation to the board requestin flat increase of $400 fgr each teac! er payable 1920-1921, The granting of such an fncrease will show recognition and appreciation of the vears of faithful service given by the vast majority of the teachers.
