Armed with the $3100 figure, local official and trustee hiring teams were able to go a long wav towards satisfying Oshawa's public school teaching needs, It was noted at the March 13 meeting other increases would be subject to negotiation, Negotiations have been held and Trustee Fletcher reported, "The teachers were of the opin- fon, if the board felt new teach- ers should get $100 more, then experienced teachers should be entitled to it as well." Trustee M. Brown said, "I understood the only reason the $100 increase was granted was to attract teachers. To have a dif- ferent view now is ridiculous and absurd," he added, "I was against the raise at the time," said Trustee C. W. Minett, "How many people are in- volved?" FEARS DELEGATION When the figure 76, out of 278 teachers, was mentioned, Trustee A.
