MORE PAY FOR THE TEACHERS . |

HE board of school commissioners took a step in the right direction last week when it authorized {wo pay raises, one effective in September and the other on Jan. 1, 1946, for teachers in the Indianapolis public schools. Even with these increases, Indianapolis lags behind most cities in the state on salary schedules for teachers. This city now ranks sixth in the state, and since nes scales are being adopted in Evansville and other cities, it may drop to seventh or lower in the coming year. The school board recognizes the gravity.of this condi‘tion and realizes, too, that Indianapolis cannot hope to hold its best teachers when their. salaries are below those of other nearby cities. Carl F. Brandt, president of the board, made that clear whien he stated that teacher pay still is inadequate but that larger increases were impossible at the present time. Ai the time the announcement was made, we were inclined to agree with Mr. Brandt. Since then, however, the situation has been altered another

development. n » ” 4 8 » »

The SCHEDULE adopted, we are informed, was based on the assumption that the state would pay 90 per cent of the average minimum salaries prescribed by law. Governor Ralph F. Gates, however, announced later in the week that the state would increase its confribution to 95 per cent. Thus the city of Indianapolis will receive between $100,000 and $120,000 more from the state distribution than yas anticipated when the present increases were granted. This sum, legally, can only be used for teachers’ salaries nothing else. It will make it possible for the board to grant further increases of $50 or $60 per teacher without increasing the local tax rate. This money has been appropriated to increase teachers’ ralaries. It should be used for that purpose.

CLOSE TO ERNIE'S HEART

OF THE many worthy proposals for memorials to Ernie Pyle, that announced today by the Indiana University Foundation is one we are sure Ernie would have wanted pi Je was always deeply interested in the youngster who Y. fo become a newspaperman; always keenly aware peed for training and development of men and women the profession to which he gave his own life. Even Te than that, he was interested in the youngsters who iad defapped their books to put on uniforms, in what they ‘wey going fo do when they came home, and ih what was mg to be done to help them do it. Lo That was why he indorsed the plan to create an Ernie = Pyle scholarship when he was back on the Indiana campus last fall—giving his alma mater the rarely granted permission to use his name to help make it a success. They are pretty much his swn wishes that the univergity foundation is undertaking to carry out now, on- a larger scale than we or it anticipated when he last visited home. If; in years to come, some other shy kid from the country, with a touch of the genius that was his own, can have because of him the chance to develop that talent™to great-ness-—well, we think it would make Ernie Pyle pretty happy if he could know about it.

"This Isn't the Old Russia’

TO UNDERSTAND, it, is only neeessary to recalls that this Russia isn't the old Russia of the czars,

| trained in the niceities of diplomacy; not even the | old European Russia, but a Russia with an Asiatic | mixture, a new Russia, that was snubbed and kicked

around in the chancellories of the world, that tried to do something with the old League of Nations and was foiled: a Russia, too. that has done something for herself, a Russia that finally rose in her might in this war and drove the German invaders back into their own capital. Her psychology was clearly revealed in the speech of Foreign Commissar Molotov at the conference. He

| spoke of the failure of the League of Nations, with

obvious unkind reference to England and France, but without naming them. He pointed out that we had refused to co-operate after the last war in an international security. He claimed that Russia, in this war, had saved European civilization. He talked very big and bold, with some justification. He couldn't resist pointing to the past, both to show what Russia had done and what some others had not done. Russia, too: is secretive about her aims. She threw a hig surprise at the opening meeting

| of the heads of delegations by demanding, through

Mr. Molotov, that there be four rotating presidents of the conference, instead of having our Sgcretary of State Stettinius the permanent president. Everybody had supposed Mr. Stettinius would be chosen, pro forma, since we are the host nation. That is the usual rule.

"Looked Silly and Ridiculous’ THIS ACT of Russia looked silly and ridiculous, at least that is the way ‘it looked to the ordinary American observer. But it was understandable when

| you remembered the boy who came from the wrong

side of the railroad tracks, who must be recognized. It also looked silly and ridiculous that the managers of this conference hadn't known about this in advance, hadn't ironed out the difficulty before the conference convened. This reflected on Secretary Stettinius. The ordinary politician would have planned better. Russia didn't do herself any good with insistence on recognition of this sort, a most trivial point it seems. It doesn't mean anything. Merely represents a false and juvenile sort of pride, just like the boy who gréw into the man and who feels he must be on every list of civic functions in the community.

IN WASHINGTON—

Expensive ‘By Charles T. Lucey

WASHINGTON, April 30.—Notwithstanding the $60,000-a-year pay increase Harry Truman received when he left the vice presidency to become President, it's possible he may wind up less well off financially than if he had kept his old job. ; g That $75.000-a-year salary, plus $30,000 for travel and entertainment, would seem to classify as what the boys call heavy sugar. A houseful of servants, beautiful ‘gardens, formal dinners—it sounds grand. But it costs money to be President of the United States Twenty years of politics his friends say, have left Harry Truman with little money. Yet congressmen looking over White House allowances say he may have to reach into his personal funds to help run the chief executive's establishment. : The President's budget is in two chief sections, the executive office and the housekeeping side. He gets $312,000 to run the executive side. The $30,000 travel-and-entertainment fund comes out of this, and 56 employees take a quick swipe out of the remainder for $240,000.

Now, there's no kitty in there at all for food. If the President and Mrs. Truman gives a state dinner, that comes out of the $30,000 travel-and-entertain-ment fund. But 90 per cent of the time they'll be setting the table privately out of what Mr. Truman has left of his $75,000 after the bureau of internal revenue gets through with him. .
