steps would be taken by the Legislature enabling
the Board to begtu work the schools this
summer The Board asked for 1891 900 for this purpose
which the Board of ApportoDment refused saying
the Legislature would provide some means of relief
But Mayor Grace is opposed to our applying for
lief in this way" said Dir Deyoe, and with his opDosi
