16 TEACHERS DRAFT WAGE INCREASE [Continued from First Page.] the State Teachers' League and oth er organizations on the provisions which should be made in such a bill and after a number of meet ings presented a proposed measure meeting such requirements. That a flat increase of 25 per cent, will necessitate a state appropria tion of $20,000,000 for the next two years for such purposes, and that in view of the many other big im provements and important work to lie done in Pennsylvania such an appropriation probably will not be approved, the teachers and other leading educators formulated the plan giving a fair amd adequate in crease to alii teachers, principals and supervisors'and at tine same time not burdening tihe state with an appro priation too large to be approved. A number of legislators who have been discussing the 36 per cent, in crease measure now in committee, and the proposed bill raising mini mums and granting other increases on a graded scale, have favored the latter plan. The bill which it is hoped will meet with general ap proval not only in teaching circles in the state, but in the legislative branches when it is called for pas sage, will be introduced next week according to present plans. Members of the committee which framed the tentative draft making slight alterations in the original scheme suggested by Professor Zim merman, declared, that they have made every effort to consider the needs of all districts in the state and at the same time to give sub stantial increases to the teaching forces. That the measure as it is now jjlanned will serve to raise the stand ard of efficiency in all the schools is another belief of the committee, and educators who have been con sulted about the measure. While Professor Zimmerman be lieves that the fiat per cent, increase in salaries of teachers to afford them a living wage, as is provided in a bill now before the Legislature is good in itself, he declares that the bill "is entirely wrong in that it fails to remedy any of the great problems now confronting the school authori ties of tti^State."

Higher standards of efficiency must be adopt ed in order to produce better citi zens for the country. Professor Zim merman says, "for the state is un der moral obligation to consider the children who will be its future citi zens." "The low salaries paid in this state are directly responsible for the high per cent, of inferior talent," Professor Zimmerman explains. "The primary need of education," he continues, "is to banish ignor ance from the earth and I have al ways doubted whether this could be accomplished by paying our teachers $4 5 or $55 per month for seven months in the year." , In view of the heavy drains on the state by reason of two billions of dollars in government revenue, mil lions for public improvements. Pro fessor Zimmerman is doubtful whether the $20,000,000 school ap propriation bill will ever be reported from the committee, since some "lawmakers inform us that it will be impossible to tind the revenue for so large an appropriation." Aud even if this does pass, con ditions in the rural districts will be little bettered he says. The salar ies for teachers with provisional certificates, professonal certificates and normal school diplomas will approximate $56.25, $68.75 and $75, whereas teachers in the city will be receiving $lOO to $125 monthly. Greater opportunity for recreation and amusement together with the larger salaries will continue to drain the schools, he believes. The tentative draft of the bill which will likely be presented to the Legislature next week is as fol lows: "That the minimum salary of each public school teacher in the Commonwealth holding a provisional certificate shall bo $6O per month; that the minimum salary of each leacher holding a professional certi ficate or a State Normal school certi ficate shall be $75 per month; that (he minimum salary of each teacher holding one of the following certi ficates, State Normal school diploma, county permanent certificate, state permanent certificate or college pro visional certificate shall be $B5 per month, provided further, that the state pay $l5 additional per month to each teacher of a rural school holding a certificate higher than a provisional certificate that the state pay 40 per cent, of the salary of all teachers, principals and supervisors up to but not including $lOO per month, provided that the $l5 addi tional per month which is to be paid by the state (o eacli teacher of a rural school shall not bo included within the 4 0 per cent, herein pro vided. "That Section 1210 providing a minimum salary, etc., and Section 1213, providing for the payment of the increase of salaries, etc., shall be repealed. "That all teachers, principals and supervisors in the public schools of the Commonwealth receiving from $lOO to $l5O per month inclusive, shall receive an increase of 20 per cent; that all teachers, principals and supervisors receiving more than $l5O per month, but not more than $2OO per month, shall receive an FOR HO Try Musterole.

The refund salary law now in force, Professor Zimmerman con demns as unfair and uniust. Teachers in first class city schools will be little affected by the new rule, Professor Zimmerman believes. He says: "As our first class cities conduct their own normal schools which are not classed as State Nor mal schools, the minimum salary schedule as now arranged would probably not affect them. In order to remedy the condition in these cities or even smaller cities, we have inserted paragraph three in the draft providing a percentage scale of in crease for all teachers, principals and supervisors receiving $lOO per month and upwards."

Beginning practice imme diately she soon adopted masculine i clothes. Her war career began at ; the age of 29. She volunteered her i services, entering the Union army as an assistant surgeon with the rank |of first lieutenant She dressed like her brother officers having a gold j stripe running down the trouser legs, wearing a felt hat with gold cord! and an officer's overcoat. Her jacket was cut. like a blouse and fitted loosely at the neck. "When I had on my overcoat," Dr. Walker declared, "I looked every inch the man, and I am sure I acted it" Dr Walker never married. Her proudest possession was the bronze medal she wore on the bosom of her' frock coat. On the back was en graved this legend: "Presented by the Congress of the United States to Mary E. Walker, A. A., Surgeon U. S. Army." She became celebrated in the United States and England as a lec turer during the half century follow ing the Civil War. "Do I ever have unkind things said to me?" she once said, echoing an interviewer's question. "Yes, of course by ill-bred people. But they are few. When anyone does say anything unpleasant I usually have something to say in return which makes us quits. Oh, I tell you, trousers are a *grea tthing!" Occasionally a policeman, failing to recognize the little, gray-haired woman, placed her under arrest. This recently happened in Chicago. Showing the documents which gave her the right to wear ihasculine at tire, she was released. Her only remark regarding the guardian of the law was: "He's an old idiot." Although a pioneer in the woman suffrage movement. Dr. Walker was out of sympathy with the methods of some of her sister-workers. "Women will get suffrage just as soon as they stop making fools of themselves," she declared recently with considerable vigor. "They've got to stop talking so much and do some work. These everlasting ad mendments will never get them their rights. They want to state •dm* Uulv want and stick to it." 20 COMMANDERS OF U-BOATS FACE MURDER CHARGE + . .

Feb. 22 ,-r— He liters Lim- j ited says it learns that the commis sion which is inquiring into German submurine excesses has now snfli clent evidence to convict some twen ty German submarine commanders, nearly all of who at present are in Germany, or murder. Seven commanders in particular have bad records against them, ac cording to Reuters advices, and the opinion is expressed that surrender and trial, possibly by an Allied naval tribunal, should form a j Clause in the armistice terms. Herbert Gilibs, a "well--Known banker in an address here, declared that, having made a spec'al study of the subject, he was able to say that the savings of Germany were very great. Germany could easily pay 600,000.000 pounds yearly, the I burden of which, he asserted, would I fall not on the wage-earners of Geg- I many, but on tbe people who had | made the war.

Mr. Reily also co-operated in the big Y. M. A. campaigns for the city unit and was connected with Liberty Loan campaigns. Residents of the city in discussing 1 his selection declared tliat in nam | ing as a board member the directors added another efficient and capable businessman to the body | such-as should represent the public in so important a place as the board of education. j Upon resolution of Director John | F. Dapp, President Robert A. End | ers was authorized to appoint a com i mittee to investigate Hie construc i tion of tlip Camp Curtin school building. Mr. Dupp stated at tbe meeting yesterday that lie lias made frequent inspections at the school and found it was not fireproof. Action on the sale of the Fager j school building to be used us heud j quarters for tlie Red Cross and j charitable organizations of the city j was deferred. The committee ap- I pointed to report on the advisability I of the sale of the school and other property owners by the district, sug- I gested using the Fager building as I a continuation school but withdrew I that part of the report after a short | discussion. At the next meeting they ! will submit another report on the I possible uses of the Fager building by the district. A committee with Mrs. Lyman D. Gilbert as chairman, spoke to the board members and explained the purpose of the Red Cross in seek ing a permanent location such as would be afforded if the Fager build ing were purchnscd. It was said that a move would then be made to consolidate all the. city charitable organizations at one place. The special board committee rec ommended advertising for sale tbe Springdale building and the site at Fifteenth and Vernon streets, which tbe directors approved. When the report of the treasurer was received Director Dapp asked whether some of the school funds could not be invested at three in stead of two per cent, on short term certificates if necessary.
