TEACHERS’ SALARIES.
(By Telegraph—Press Association.) Thames, last night. At a rery largely-attended meeting of oartificated teachers, a resolution was paesed in which it was unanimously agreed to respectfully urge upon the Minister of Education the desirability of passing during the present session of Par- ■ lisment the Public School Teachers’ Salaries Bill now before the House. The Bill, they state, is urgently needed, and the exceptions taken to some of the details are most unwise, being characterised by provincialism that was deplorable. A separate resolution was passed with regard to women teachers to the following effect: “ Recognising that the proposed colonial
scales makes a considerable improvement in the status of women teachers of the colony, the Minister respectfully urges upon the Minister of Educotion the desirability of adopting a colonial scale, as recommended by the Teachers’ Salaries Commission, and express the hope that the Bill now before the House providing for a colonial scale, will be pushed through." The resolutions are to be forwarded to the Premier, the Minister of Education, and the member for Thames (Hon. Jas. McGowan), and Ohinemuri (Mr Jackson Palmer). j
