Economy-Minded Legislators Face Tough Decision on Teachers' Pay SACRAMENTO (CNS)—One of the big problems confronting the state legislature is a "little bill" sponsored by the California Teachers Association, which would increase the minimum salaries of teachers throughout the state from $3000 to $3400 annually. The legislature finds itself in the position of a group favoring a program of economy, of cutting down on all government expenditures if possible, and at the same time, being asked with some reason to vote an increase for a group of about 2000 teachers who now receive less than $3400 annually. It also finds a virtual mandate from the people of the state in the matter for when proposition No. 2 was voted last November, the voters were aware that some of the additional ADA money supplied by the state would go for increased teacher salaries. The total of 2000 teachers in the lower salary brackets is not large when compared with the fact that there are approximately 70,000 teachers drawing salaries in the public school system in California. The proposed increase, however, is being opposed by the California Taxpayers association which calls attention to the fact that the "median teacher" salary is nearly $4000 for elementary; $4700 for high school and $5400 for the junior polleges with a median for all of $4260. This of course is small comfort to those 2000 teachers who get less than $3400 per year. But on the other hand the Taxpayers Association points out the similar increase in pay all along the line. The association quotes figures to show that in 1945, when the minimum salary was $1800, the median for all teachers was $2793. But in 1951, when the minimum salary was uped to $3000, the median was $3990 and in 1952, had jumped to $4266. "Many legislators and taxpayers," says the Association, "are shocked when they find out how well California school teachers are paid. There has been much misleading propaganda in recent years about 'the poor little school teacher.' It is high time the people had the facts." Part of the facts, as disclosed in the last campaign for more school money, are to the point that California teachers as a group are the highest paid of any state in the nation. There were arguments over the average figure, but there was no argument over that statement of fact. Teacher salary levels above the present minimum of $3000 annually should be left with the discretion of the local school boards, the taxpayers association says, asking "should the legislature bow to the teachers lobby and take away from local school boards another of their duties and responsibilities?" "The drive for teacher salary increases is well financed, deviously presented, and nation wide," the association warns.
