C. Karpinski, of the mathematics department, in his lecture on "Teach- ers' Salaries and the Cost of Living," yesterday. afternoon gave information for teachers in communities where an adequate campaign has not yet b'een made to increase salaries, and out- lined the most effective method by which increases are to be obtained. Dollar Bill Shorter. "The dollar bill looks much shorter now than it did in 1914," he said. "According to statistics, the cost of living in Detroit has increased 139 per cent since 1914. This means that the dollar now will' buy only 41 cents worth of any commodity as compared with 1914. In some place the increase has been about TOO per cent, making the average increase approximately; 120 per cent." It is hoped the peak has been reached,Ibut the decline isdnot in sight. Increased prices and high wages,"resuitng from the' law- ofsup- ply aind demand, are by-products of the waj. The cost of living is.a com- plicated matter. It differs in various parts of the cquntry and for differeit individuals. Must Pay. Good Salaries "If teachers are to make a campaign for increased salaries, they should1 have information available that will be educational as to the future of the comnuiity. The only way to get de-1 sirable teachers is to pay proper sal-I aries. The teachers should submit fig- ures on the local increase in cost ofP living and on the increases that havej been given labor in the community tof meet the rising prices. Teachers dur- ing the period of the war 'have not re! ceived proportionate increases. - I "A salary campaign, should aim at establishment of a proper salary mini-w (Continued on Page 4)1 Declaring that there has been public misconception concerningsupposed Congressional extravagance, Prof. J. R. Hayden, of the political science de- partment, in his discussion of the problem of the national budget Thurs- day afternoon, said that proposed bud: get reforms aim at efficiency in gov- ernmental administration as well ,as economy. "Records show that in the last 20 years there have beenfew cases where estimates have been increased by con- gressional committees, and in most in- stances they have been greatly re- duced," he said. $ystem Inadequate "Politicians and statsesmen have known that our so-called budget 'sys: tem is inadequate. Appropriations are not made in the best way, and the process of checking the budget is faulty," he 'continued. "The budget bill passed by Congress and vetoed by President Wilson in the closing days of the last session because of one fea- ture regarded as unconstitutional, was a tremendbus step, in advance." The problem of national budget, ac- cording to Prof. Hayden, is not merely one of sources of revenues but also of expenditures and appropriations and the metl od of accounting for govern- nient funds. In past procedure each bureau has made its own estimate of expenses for the succeeding year. As7 a result of this system, bureau chiefs ask for about double the sum they ex- pect, knowing Congress will pare their padded figures down. Discussing the procedure of -appropriations in the House, he said estimates are split1 among sevdral committees.

One thousand dollars of this amount was raised by the financial committee of the Conference, under the leader- ship of K. L. Wu, '21E, who canvassed Chinese merchants in Detroit and Toledo. The co-operation of the local Chinese Students' club and the Chinese Students' club of Detroit with the com- mittee was a large factor in the suc- cess' of the drive, according to those in charge. Local members of the conference raised a subsidy fund of $300 to enable members at a great distance to attend the meeting. This was also done to show the members of other schools the common interest that is manifest. in all members of the Conference, ac-, cording to local officers. In order. that the whole delegation might visit Detroit and make an in- spection of the industrial plants of that city and also to provide enter-t tainment for them while there, the' Chinese Students' club of Detroit have raised $350. This trip will be male September 7.
