SHOWS TRICK ON SCHOOL TEACHERS McCulloch Exposes Salary ‘Raise’ of Legislature. Special to The Times. MT. VERNON, Ind., Oct. o.—Before a large audience of men and women voters Dr. Carlton B. 'McCulloch, Democratic candidate for Governor, told the school teachers how the Legislature gave them a raise In salary, but was careful not to attach an emergency clause to the act, thus preventing the teachers from getting the effect of the increase this year. "I wish the teachers of Indiana who have been forced to sign contracts nnder the old law to get this: The second special session of the Legislature pissed House Bill No. 553, which was approved by the Governor Aug. 4. 1920. This law provides for increase In the wages of every school teacher in Indiana. This law does not contain an emergency clause, therefore does not become effective until the issuance of the proclamation by the Governor, declaring the laws passed by the special session In full force and effect. “Heire is a case where the Legislature has provided means of relief for the suffering school teachers of Indiana, anil the Goodrleb-Watson-McCray combination is denying them the relief given by withholding the proclamation. “The Governor knows that It Is unlawful for teachers to teach school until they have entered into a contract covering the full school term, and he further knows that the school term begins in the early part of September of each year; therefore, he has by his act forced the teachers into a contract that is binding upon them for the school year, thus denying to them wbat is rightfully theirs.’’

As happens In other lines, logically the profit will go to those who supply the money. After seeing the layout In the Severtn the stacks of campaign material being
