Wage hikes under Phase II loom as freeze ends
Labor Secretary Hodgson said most negotiated raises likely take effect when the wage price freeze ends next month and that union members won’t face rollback. The AFL-CIO opposes the $15.4 billion tax cut while endorsing Nixon’s pay and price control system, and a three-judge panel may hear wage earners’ appeals.

Secret session on Pownal school pact discussed
Pownal School Board and teachers' representatives met behind closed doors to review a factfinders' report on current year contracts. The board cited legal limits on releasing the report until 10 days after receipt and noted a Monday meeting may or may not produce a resolution. The impasse stems from a salary demand of 6700 base pay versus 6400, with critics warning of constitutional issues and the use of public funds for religious schooling.

Bennington Selectmen Press Corcoran to Seek Trailer Variance
The Bennington Board of Selectmen adopted a get-tough policy, giving Joseph Corcoran until next Tuesday to apply for a zoning variance for five trailers parked at his Morgan Street Imperial Avenue site. If he fails, Town Counsel Norton Barber will pursue legal action, while no new trailers may be moved. Corcoran says his father plans 18 trailers and may take the matter to court again. The board cites a 1970 ruling limiting to seven trailers and suggests a compromise number between seven and 18, though Corcoran hesitates on seeking any variance. Residents oppose expansion and want the Supreme Court decision upheld.
