Disastrous Suspension.

posted in 2the Edgar Thompson steel
works at Braddock, to-day, ordering the
suspension of work tomorrow in all

THE INSTITUTION FOR THE BLIND.
The Trustees Point Out Defects in the Sys-
TEN of It's Management.

The thirty-eighth annual report Of the super
intendent and trustees Of the State Blind Asy-
lum was filed in the office of the Governor yes
terday. 1T is a fact which has been often
stated. - remark the trustees, that the facilities
for the education of the blind are inadequate.
Without any intention to discriminate against
that class of unfortunates, thelaw-making power
of the State has certainly failed to provide suf-
fcient means to educate all of them. There are
quite a number of blind children in the State
who are permitted to grow up without the ad-
vantages Of an education, simply for want Of
room to accommodate them in the institution.
There are also many blind people above the
lawful age for admittance who could soon ac-
quire a trade, by which they would be en- abled
to earn a living" The attention of the Govern
or is directed to tho evil of sending the INDECENT
pupils back to the poorhouses during the sum-
mer vacations, and it is suggested that there
should be an appropriation for the maintenance
of these children in the institution, where they
may be kept under proper discipline.
The value of the real estate and personal
property of the institution is estimated at 1913
772.O1. OF the appropriation of $27, 500, the
amount expended during the fiscal year was
1923, 073. Sc, leaving a balance of $4,026.14. The
expenditures were less than they have been IN
any year since Iofi. me usuai approptlauloh Oh
$27,0 GOO, it is thought, will be sufficient for the
next year.
Notwithstanding our progress and advance
ment," the superintendent states, I'VE do not
claim that our system of instructlng and teach
ing the blind is complete"
The number of pupils in the institution is 100,
of whom ninety-four were enrolled during the
previous year. OF these fifty-eight are males
and sixty-two are females. The receipts from
the sale of articles made in the work-room for
girls amounts to $780, 81. There were no de-
mands for aid from the fund for INDECENT pupils,
which now amounts to $553.S3 Hereditary
blindness, the asylum physician remarks, is not
frequent, but there are in the institution six
cases that appear to be due to i this cause, as in
one instance the father was blind, in two cases
the mother was blind, and in three both parents
were blind. In five cases of congenital blind
ness the parents were first cousins. The ma
jority of the pupils, however, have become
blind since birth.
