Board weighs wartime pay for soldiers staff
Superintendent Ralph S. Dewey told the Board of Education that the 1917 act requiring 50 to 60 percent wage continuation for employees entering military service applies to state, county and city workers as well as school staff. The law charges the district with arranging substitutes while dependents receive the benefit, with the 50 percent to dependents. Officials await a binding opinion on its applicability to the current emergency, and Dewey expects few district employees to be affected as eligible lists are thinning.
