§u,
Government employees to be
protected under new measure
&-•.
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The
U.S. Senate, in a roll-call vote,
has approved a measure by
Senator Lloyd Bentsen that
would provide protection for
Federal State and local
government employees under
the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act.
The Senate approved the
Bentsen measure, an amend-
ment to the Taft-Dominick
Substitute Minimum Wage Act,
late Wednesday, by a vote of 86-
0.
“Enforced retirement or the
setting of arbitary age limits on
promotion or hiring can lead to
what one observer has called a
human tragedy,” Bentsen said.
“Quite apart from any
economic arguments, the
central issue is whether we
want to give older workers a
feeling that they can still
contribute, that their age is no
bar to a productive life.”
Senator Bentsen pointed out
that when Congress passed the
Age Discrimination in Em-
ployment Act, in 1967, it
specifically exempted all
government employes.
“I do not believe,” Bentsen
said, “that these units of
governments are justified in
asking private employers to do
what government would not do
for itself.”
Bentsen also urged stronger
enforcement of the age
discrimination law by the Labor
Department. He pointed out
that only a few cases have been
prosecuted since the law was
passed, in 1967. And he noted
that a staff of only four persons
is responsible for enforcing the
act.

Q. My landlord has been
charging me for cable TV
service as part of my rent. He
recently discontinued the
service. Is this an increase in
rent?
A. Yes. Any decrease in ervice
by a landlarod is an increase in
rent. As a result he must either
restore the service or reduce
your rent by the amount the
service had cost him.

New requirements for
em urgency teach permit
AUSTIN-Possible changes in
requirements for emergency
teaching permits to be issued
for the 1972-73 school year will
be based on data gathered by
the Texas Education Agency
during a survey of school
district and teacher education
officials which will begin
Monday (July 24).
Deadline for sending facts
based on the current
availability of regularly-
qualified and certified teachers
to the Texas Education Agency
is August 24.
Dr. J. W. Edgar, Texas
Commissioner of Education, is
requesting facts on teacher
availability from superin-
tendents of more than 1,100
public school districts and of-
ficials of 57 schools and colleges
of education in all sections of
the state.
In response to a letter from
Mrs. Vivian Bowser of Houston,
president of the Texas
Classroom Teachers
Association, Edgar said that a
moratorium on permits as
recommended by Mrs’. Bowser
without due notice to school
districts “would be retractive in
nature and therefore unen-
forceable.”
Mrs. Bowser had requested
the moratorium earlier this
month “until such time as all
regularly qualified and certified
teachers are employed.” A copy
of Mrs. Bowser’s letter is being
sent to the school superin-
tendents and college and

Newsmen also

pay practice previously set
forth?
A. No. The mere annoucement
of a proposed increase before
Nov. 14,1971, without specifying
the amount of the increase, a
method or formula for deter-
mining such amount, whether
the increase would be ap-
plicable to certain or all em-
ployees of the company, or the
dates such an increase would be
put into effect, does not con-
stitute a pay practice
previously set forth.
receiving such an increase.
However, such a situation
would constitute a violation if
the Pay Board has denied the
party’s appeal from a deter-
mination by the IRS, or ren-
dered a decision on a Day
challenge or request for an
exception. In addition, the pay
Board has made it clear that it
is a violation to agree to in-
crease wages and salaries upon
the termination of controls by
an amount necessary to restore
wage increases denied by the
Board.

Vietnam, bringing the death

North Vietnamese offensive.
Canadian photographer Ge-

Q. Iknow that a pay practice
previously set forth and in
existence before Nov. 14,1971, is
allowed to operate according to
its terms, subject to challenge.

university officals along with
Edgar’s request for in-
formation.
Edgar will meet with
representatives of professional
groups to discuss their views as
to possible changes before the
1972-73 school year beings.
“In view of our concern for
appropriate utilization of all
regulary certified personnel, we
believe the current policy
probably should be recon-
sidered for 1972-73,” Edgar
said.
Emergency permit policies
now in effect require a teacher
to hold at least a bachelor’s
degree. In addition, a secondary
teacher must fulfill minimum
requirements for a specific
teaching field while an
elementary teacher must have
completed at least 12 hours in
elementary education.
Teachers in bilingual
programs and instructors in
certain vocational and reserve
Officers Training Corps
programs are the only ex-
ceptions.
Requests for emergency
permits now being received by
the Texas Education Aggency
indicate little or no decrease
from the ususual rate, despite
the number of certified teachers
available.
During 1971-72, the Texas
Education Agency issued 14,246
emergency permits, including
3,244 to counselors, librarians,
and other special assignment
personnel. Not all these permits
were brand new, however. The
total figure includes 8,469 first
time permits and 6,102
renewals.
During 1970-71, the Texas
Education Agency issued 16,264
permits. Although 89.7 percent
of these teachers held
bachelor’s degrees, many did
not have the required education
courses or the necessary
training in a teaching field
where jobs were a ailable. Some
certified secondary teachers,
for example, needed emergency
permits to teach in elementary
schools.
Also during 1970-71, 11.19
percent of all professionals in
Texas public schools held
emergency certificates. This
figure includes special
assignment personnel such as
counselors and librarians.
Reports on the Texas college
and university Class of 1971
indicate some 35 percent of the
graduates planned careers in
teaching. These 42,940
graduates included 11,721
women and 3,611 men who
earned degrees in education.
Total figures on the 1972
graduates are not yet available.
Texas pyblic schools employ
approximately 130,000 teachers
and serve 2.8 million students.
Q. Where an individual controls
two coporations and the two
corporations have an average of
55 and 45 employees, respec-
tively, are either of the cor-
porations exempt!
A. No. A firm is exempt from
the Economic Stabilization
Regulations, if it has an
average of less than 60 em-
ployees. Since the two cor-
porations are controlled by the
same individual, they are
considered to be a single firm.
Consequently, the employees
are combined and the cor-
porations are not exempt.
Q. Does the IRS have a
publication explaining how to
apply for an economic
stabilization ruling or in-
terpretation?
A. Yes. IRS Publication S-3009,
“IRS Rulings and Deter-
minations,” explains how to
request a ruling or in-
terpretation, how to appeal an
interpretation and how to
request a reconsideration of a
ruling. It can be obtained free

Q. Is it a violation of Pay Board
regulations to bargain for a
