Teachers Bill Appeal Urges Salary Hike For District Teachers
Commissioner Macfarland urges support for HR 8472 to raise salaries and promote teachers in the District public schools noting broad public and organizational backing. He argues keeping current structure minimizes cost, defends local control, and cites Census Bureau data comparing per capita spending to other cities to justify the need.
District revenue forecast supports proposed raise for public employees
Revenues of the District, estimated for the next fiscal year at 5 501 42, are ample to meet all statutory requirements and to provide for the increase of salaries proposed for the teachers, policemen, and firemen, as far as the District's share of the cost is concerned. It is hoped the Commissioners' bill is enacted this session. Henry B. MacFarland respectfully urges action to Hon Edward de W Morrell, Chairman of the Sub-Committee.
