Teacher Salary Disputes Close Several U.S. Systems By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Classes have been postponed for more than 600,000 . young- sters us several school systems in the U.S were closed because of disputes over teachers sala- rie. The number could increase to more than 2,000,000 by next week. Detroit School Superintendent Norman Drachler put off indefi- nitely today's scheduled school opening for 300,000 youngsters. In New York, a deadloek con- tinued toward a Monday dead- line. Michigan was the hardest hit of the states, with almost 500,- 000 youngsters in some 17 dis- tricts on extended vacations "ynti! further notice."

Lindsay's mediation board for a two-year, $125,000.000 contract between the teachers union and the board. In a telegram to the United Federation of Teacher, the board called for a membership yote on the proposal. The union agreed to the vote, but predict- ed thee membership would reject it as the negotiating team had earlier. The package would boost most teachers' salaries by §1,- 050 over two years to a starting $6,600 next September. The teachers had called for a scale from $7,500 to $15,000. The union is also seeking a say in educational policy. The teachers have threatened a mass resignation for the sched- uleé' opening Monday to cir- cumvert a state law prohibiting strikes by public employee unions. Michigan also has a statue prohibiting strikes by public employees but the measure has never been tested and does not outline penalties. Detroit teachers have reject- ed a Detroit board of education contract offer of a $6,400-to- $10,100 salary range. The cur- rent scale is $5,800 to $9,500 after 11. years. The board of education and Detroit Federa- tion of Teachers reported little progress in negotiations Wedresday.

More than 600 of the 850 teach- ers in the system have stayed away from schools in a salary dispute. Canadian Weekly Papers Name Competition Awards OTTAWA (CP)--The Wey- burn (Sask.)

The government countered with charges that the Viet Cong electioneered on behalf of Dzu. The official government news agency Vietnam Press quoted a Vietnamese they said was a captured Viet Cong to back up the charge. Four of the candidates told reporters they are joining with four others defeated in the elec- tions to form an anti-govern- ment front that does '"'not rec- 286 KING STREET We 723-3487 Gym and Healt ognize these- fraudulent elec- tions." "We are asking for a nation- wide recount of all the prov- inces,"" Dzu said. CAN CALL ELECTION The assembly must rule by Oct. 2 on all charges of election irregularity. If it finds too many of them, it can nullify the election and call a new one. "If the assembly rejects our charges because they have no courage to invalidate the elec- tion, we will build up a legal opposition to the government," Dzu said. Vietnam Press claimed that police in Kien Giang province had captured a Viet Cong agent whose "confession" said the Viet Cong had "ordered their subordinates to urge the people to vote for the Truong Dinh Dzu slate." The agency said sources told it the Viet Cong had made the VIC TANNY'S Canada's Oldest and Finest Chain of Health Spas is here! OSHAWA Civilian Candidates Seek - To Void Vietnam Election order because Dzu "is one of the friends of lawyer Nguyen Huu Tho, chairman of the South Vietnam National Liberation Front," the political arm of the Viet Cong. The government press agency added: "The sources said that, according to the VC, if Mr. Truong, Dinh Dzu won the elec- tion the VC would have an opportunity to cause trouble for the national government." Although U.S. officials in Sai- gon said there was no evidence to link Dzu with the Commu- nists, he was Tho's defence lawyer during trials under the French colonial regime and that of President Ngo Dinh Diem, and he also claims to be in touch with the central com- mittee of the North Vietnamese Communist party and the National Liberation Front. "First I am accused of being a CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) agent and now they je | I am a VC," Dzu said today. 'It doesn't make sense," LIST CHARGES Some charges read off by Dzu to reporters included: --Misprinted ballots were dis- tributed in Saigon containing the pictures of his ticket but the names of other candidates. Many polling places in Sai- gon ran out of ballots, keeping "20 per cent" of the voters from voting. --'Fraudulent'" miscounting of the votes took place in Can Tho, in the Mekong Delta. --Several representatives of Dzru's ticket were not allowed to The candidates signing the joint protest were Phan Khac Suu Hoang Co Binh, Dzu, Tran Van Ly, Nguyen Hoa Hiep and Vu Hong Khanh.
