Dec. 11 -4B- Classrooms were empty and cold today in nine schools as AFL teach ers went on strike for higher pay and vowed to continue the walkout State department of education officials said it was believed to be the first formal teacher strike in New Jersey history. The strike by members of local 1046, American Federation of Teachers (AFL) was voted so quickly last night that teachers pickets ringed the schools this morning without picket signs.

The teachers took the strike ac tion after the city council declined to appropriate $88,000 to give annual increases of from $150 to $400 to each teacher. Their pay ranges from $2,600 to $4,600 annually. As the strikers picketed the schools, some of the city's 3,600 pupils crossed picket line and en tered classrooms. They were sent home, however, as janitors honor ed the pickets and refused to go into the buildings, thus shutting oft heat. The union claims membership of 103 of the 158 faculty members.

When he returned tonight and found no lights burning, he became alarmed and summoned aid.

Neighbors said Mrs. White had been under a doctor's care recently for a heart ailment Dr. Austin Coulsbn, county coroner, gave a verdict of death due natural causes. ceived in 1953," Hughes continued. "Costs will come down slightly, but Increased production of most farm commodities will tend to lev el off incomes at a little below, or about at last year's levels.

Farmers throughout the nation are setting up plans for the coming year. What the expected outlook is for any one phase of their particular type of farm enterprise will Influence the amount of money and time that will be allocated to that part of the farm program. Diversified Income Hughes suggested that family size farms in southeastern Ohio that are dependent upon the sale of feeder calves as their sole in come, would be Wiser to diversify their income in a few years to come. "Most farms in this area can only support about 30 heef cows," said Hughes "at 100 per cent calf crop, which is not logu cal, their gross income would only be $2,000 to $3,000." "Such farmers," continued Hughes earn more money if they intro duced other enterprises into the farm program, or worked in the city for the majority of their income." The outlook for continued good hog prices will carry over into next summer. However, Hughes believed that hog prices would be lower next fall compared to this fall.

"Increased spring farrowing will be the main reason for slightly lower hog prices next Fall." Hughes said. Efficiency Best Sheep and chicken enterprises will continue to make money for the operator who has made money in these enterprises in 1953. Some broiler and turkey raisers will find tough sledding ahead if the number of these birds keeps increasing. "However, added Hughes, "'efficient producers in this or any other part of the farm business win continue to make money in 1954 if they made money during the past year." This is particularly true of dairy. Since costs are stabilizing at about present levels, the dairy farmer that can milk more cows or increase milk pro duction per cow, is the man who is going to make the money in the dairy business in the coming year.

Rain And Colder Forecast Today Showers are forecast for this morning and temperatures may drop enough tonight to bring snow flurries according to the weatherman who added that "wet" weather will probably prevail for the coming five days.

With temperatures expected to be about normal, the weather bureau has indicated there may be showers or snow Sunday, warmer Monday and colder again by Tuesday when there may be snow show ers.
