Name Address cent of the under 25s are on the basic scale and 33 per cent of all teachers. In the 45 to 49 age range 16 per cent are on the basic rate falling to 15 per cent for those aged 45 and over.

Under the new proposals the primary school teacher, who is worse off, is unlikely to see any significant pay improvement.

And in secondary schools, where comprehensive rationaliza- tion is affecting the number of graded posts, teachers will come against the limits imposed by the "scores' system. 50,000 strong The National Association of Schoolmasters has already sided with the employ- ers on their proposals for a new structure because a • high pro- of their members portion are career teachers, heads and deputy heads, who will benefit. So have the head teachers and the head masters and conces- sions already seem to have been made in the proposals to the Joint Four. All three want to see more cash available to pay for the new structure and the NAS has sug- gested £152 million. organizations Unlike these their élite memberships with anxious about the erosion of dif- ferentials well about as as absolute pay levels, the NUT has 132,000 of its 242,000 working teachers in primary schools. Of its 72,000 members in secondary schools a high proportion are not in graded posts. In other words they repre- sent a section of the profession which is, and as a result of the employers' proposals would con- tinue to be, the teachers' prole- tariat. Illustration' It is true that the NUT has rejected outright the employers' £45 million, which is not an offer but merely an "illustration'.

But behind the NUT's appar- ent militant rejection of the non- offer there is a willingness to agree to the proposed career structure as a basis for discus- sion and as a principle. All teachers must be aware of the danger the new structure • presents. There must be massive resistance to the proposals.

Everything must be concen- trated on pushing up the basic rate. Divisions in the teachers' brought about by ranks, the response of the élite associations to the Burnham proposals, is employers' playing into the hands and weakening the teach- , ers for the coming fight with the management and with the gov- ernment. Management and government are watching closely to see the outcome of the council workers' strike and the coming battle with the miners. The Tories will try to beat back the mounting wave of mili- tancy in the working class. They cannot concede massive wage demands. The Tories cannot pump more money into the economy through people's wage packets without worsening inflation and therefore Britain's world trade position.

To try to beat the world crisis of overproduction, which has sharpened competition, employers in Britain must cut costs. The only way they can do this is by an attack on wage levels and living standards. It is clear from the public statements by NUT general sec- Mr Edward Britton that retary the union has not prepared con- crete plans for industrial action if the management do not make what he has called a 'generous and constructive offer'. The Tories have made it clear in their proposed trade union and industrial reforms that from now on there will be little or no room for the sort of com- promise the NUT leaders are looking for. They must wave the big stick if the profits of the ruling class are to be prevented from drop- ping back further. To protect effectively their liv- ing standards from the effects of the capitalist crisis teachers must stick to their guns and demand: • Rejection of the employers' proposed career structure.

• No compromise on the claim for an increase in the basic rate. • Strike action if the employers will not give way. Tuesday, October 27, 1970 WILLIAM KUNSTLER as portrayed by James Patterson THE CHICAGO CONSPIRACY TRIAL-USA versus David T Dellinger and Other ('On Trial' serles October 4).
