TEACHERSAND
CARPENTERS
WANT RAISES
t TOPEKA, Kas., March 9.—A plea
• for "an increase in the salaries of the
j. professors of the University of Kan
sas, issued by the local carpenter’s
union at Lawrence, is included in a
C
letter addressed by the union to the
j state board of administration. At
the same time, the union asks that
the state board increase the wages
paid carpenters at the university
from 52 cents to 75 cents an hour—
the local scale.
A unique situation is brought by
the Lawrence union in that it
.threatens to take before the new
industrial relations court its petition
to compel the state board of admin
istration to pay higher wages to the
university carpenters. If such a move
were made, it would be the first in
stance before the court of employees
of the state seeking to obtain higher
wages from the state through the
state court.
The letter was signed by F. ,T. Dun
ham, secretary of the union. The
carpenters employed at the univer
sity are “full-time” workers. The 75
cent rate sought is said to be consid
erably more than is received by many
of the instructors at the university.
