isAys URBAN TRUSTEES
WERE IVIIISUN,DERSTOOD
Sectional Chairman at 10.E.A. Meeting
Denies Wage Cut Opposed
Matter For Boards
Readjustment of High School Salaries
Held Local Problem
Lond,an, Ont, April 3. -The atti-
tude of the urban trustees at the On-
tario Educational Association comvp-
tion in Toronto toward proposals to
cut salaries Of high eshool teachers has
been mistm.derstood by many, accord-
ing to Rev. R. D. Mess of London.
Rev, Mr, Mess was chairman of the
urban trustees' section, of the con-
vention when a resolution from Sea -
forth iis!king the convention to take
salary reductions in hand came up.
"That •resolution was sent to the
resolutions committee," Rev. Mr.,
Mess explained to the ,Mail and Em-
pire to -night. "The newspapers had
the impression that we had rejected
the priuciple of salary readjustments.
The view- of the resolutions corn,mit-
tee was that it was not wise for the
convention to deal with the question
but that it should be Ieit instead to
the local boards. That was the dispo-
sition of the Seaford" resolution, but
next day it was reported that We were
against salary cuts.
"The publicity given to that er-
roneous impression virtually had the
effect of re -opening the question.
"A new resolution was then , res
p -
ented, by Trustee Beemer of Essex,
believe, asking that a committee of
tenstees be named to 'confer 'on the
matter with a committee from the
!Secondary School Teachers' Federa-
tion. The 'suggestion was that the
trustees' committee should' ask the
teachers to reduce the scale that fixes
minimum rated for localities accord-
ing to their population. The mini-
mum,rate for cities of London's size
is $2,000,
"After $0.111C d tiSCUSS1,011 it 'was felt
that it was better not to take such
action. If we had a committee pre-
paring to negotiate, the teachers in
'any community might say to their
local trustees, 'these negotiations are
pending." It would probably hamper
locaNitioards and we felt we had no
right to interfere in such a way with
local autonomy.
'The general tendency among the
trustees was to be perfectly fair to
the teachers, though all felt that if
existing conditions de not clear up
there will 'have 'to be some readjust-
ment but, strictly' on a basis that will
be fair and equitable.
"We could not set up a committee
to negotiate with the Ontario Federa-
tion: of Teachers because no delegate
to the Convention had any mandate
to de, anything of the kind and even
if we had acted our action would not
bind any local board which might de-
cide to ,proceed on its own terms," -
The Mail and Empire. •
' FARM SOLD

week disposed of his farm on the
