Declaring that the teachers in the city school "are the victims of the present wave of prosperity, and that their wapes have depreciated in valti percent in the last three years", a committee of teachers representing the SOU teachers in the prade schools of the city appeared before the school hoard at its meeting Monday nipht and asked to be piven a new schedule of salaries more equitable adjusted and providing a tlat raise for all the teachers. The members of the school board in response to the teachers request said that they would be willinp to do anythinp in their power to help the teachers, but that they could see no way of advaneinp salaries at the present time In view of the linancial situation of the school city. They declared that the present school levy was entirely inadequate to provide for all the school needs of the prowinp city and indicated that while they would probably increase the school tax to the limit allowed by law this summer they saw no way of increasing the pay of the teachers under present circumstances. It va? pointed out that the school city is at present beinp forced to burrow money to pay the teachers their salaries monthly. The equipment of many of the schools is very inadequate, the board said. and the demands for more teachers and better schools i.s continually prowin hut the board was unable to do much more than it is at present because of kick of funds. It was supcested at the conference that the only way the teachers' request could be pranted would be by increasing: the school levy which mut be done by the legislature, or by a readjustment of the appraised value of local property by the assessor so as to provide further funds. Homer Tappavt appeared before the board and offered to place in the hiph school a tine collection of stuffed birds which he h;is jus: purchased. The offer was accepted.
