Robert H. Wyatt, executive secretary of the ISTA, said today the proposal for the increase has been approved by executive and resolution committees.

It will be presented to the representative assembly of the ISTA at the' annual convention here October 24. Teachers now pay a flat $12 per year in dues, regardless of their salary. The new proposal contemplates a rate of .3 of 1 of pay, regardless of salary. Thus teachers earning per year or less would have no dues increase. Teachers earning $5,000 would pay $15.

Wyatt said about one third of the teachers in the state earn $4,000 or less, another third earns between and $5,000, and the remainder over $5,000. Wyatt said ISTA dues now bring in about $375,000 per year. The new rate would increase this by an estimated $70,000 per year. Wyatt said the extra money is needed to pay for expanded ISTA activities and rising costs. He said the new system would put dues assessment and collection on a "more business-like basis." The bulk of the increase will be borne by teachers in urban communities, where salaries are higher than in rural areas.

The proposal for the dues increase contemplates an increase in dues on a graduated basis of $1.50 for each $500 increase in salary up to rental than 15 of the fair market value of the space rented. 14c BOOST -SINCE JULY It was disclosed in Wash the new College Central pair of a streets.
