PAGE EIGHT THE CASA GRANDE DISPATCH Misleading Advertisement Of Teachers' Salaries Is 1 Backfiring 1 By D. W. HARBISON Principal Stanfield Elementary Schools The mysterious "front organization" known as the Arizona School Protective Association, who recently ran a large advertisement in the Casa Grande Dispatch, and other important Arizona newspapers publicizing teachers salaries, is having its effort "back fire." The general public doesn't like such "foul play, and when a de liberate foul blow is struck, the sympathy of the public swings to the side of the victim." To compare the salaries of teachers on the basis of time spent in the class room is like computing a fireman's salary basis of the time he spends extinguishing fires. The figures published in the advertisement were wrong and they do not tell the truth. What the opponents of Amendment 102 failed to include was the nights, and Sundays that the teachers work preparing plans, correcting papers, and supervising playground and other youth activities all of which is necessary work in a.

modern school. These opponents also fail to include the time and money spent in prenaring for the teaching profession? They also failed to in- Magnificent Gotten Discovery! lude the summer months when many teachers attend universities, or do research work, planned to nake them better teachers. The highest paid member of our Stanfield teaching staff- receives $3400.00. $361.80 is subtracted for income tax and for retirement, leaving a total of $2825.26. Divide by 365, the total number of days in a year that this teacher must live, and you have a daily salary of $7.73.

Some comparisons were made on a 1940-41 basis. Remember the good old days 01 1940-41, when round steak was 30c per pound; eggs were 20c per dozen; and bacon was 28c per pound? In keeping with the inflationary trend in the -United States, salaries and incomes have increased whether you are a merchant, farmer, laborer, or pro- in fact, the subject of teachers salaries is not the issue in Amendment 102. This front organization is trying to divide and confuse the public by including a selfish salary motive. The amendment proposes to assess equally, the wealth, throughout the state of Arizona and distribute it in such a manner that all the children of the state have an equal educational opportunity. A special levy against the property of the Stanfield School district will not be necessary if Amendment 102 passes.

The tax burden will be shifted to wealthier districts and tHe Stanfield tax rate will be lowered. You will protect your home and your school by voting 102 YES.
