! The secretary read the letter OF the Commission

crs To pay the ttnitOrS OF the Gales Garnet and
i;nn"ker buildings. though affirming that damage
70 the extent vi 1900 had been done through their

Dr. lurys said the letter was directly opposed 70
the report or the committee janitors The state
ntnt III the letter that damage to the extent Of
$luOu niti been done was not true. He criticised
tue letter severely, because Ii stated SubSttntia
| That The report OF the committee was untrue He
doubted whether this letter had been passed upOn
! by all the commissioners.
Mr. smith said he was willing to cOncede tnfalli.
bllty 10 the building Inspector to certain extent
though the past history of Mr.. Entwise's actions
| regarding The pubic schools would not perhaps
justify tiidt conclusion. He thought the Commit,
Tee OF the school board was entitled least to re-
spect and The board should protect its commit tee
Mr.. BROOKS said the secret OF the whole trouble
was that they had faulty construction OF heating
apparatus III several school buildings erected under

/ cover up the faults OF their own office He s,lp-
gtSted that the commissioners should say TO Con-
gTtsS that each or these large buildings should ha ye
an assistant janitOr. He thought the District Com
inlssloners should have looked into facts before
sending letter To the board denying the truth OF
the statements made In j report OF a committee OF
| the board. -
