CAN'T BUILD ADDITION.
The School Boards Finances Not
Equal to the Demand.

The School Board met last night to talk
over the question of building an addition
to the high school building, at Pennsylvania
and Michigan streets, and to discuss the
boards finances. At the suggestion OF
Commissioner Baker the board held a secret
session of half an hour and the newspaper
reporters were not permitted to remain in
the room. Commissioner Baker remarked:
II want. to say. some things that don't
want published
The board decided that it will be impossi-
BILE TO build an addition to the high school
this year. This decision was reached after
Commissioner Baker. who Is chairman OF
the finance committee, made statement
showing the condition Of the boards fnan-
ces.
Under the new school board law money
cannot be transferred from one fund to
another, and tie fund which would have
to bear the expense Of new building is
too low for the purpose. 1t was estimated
that the new addition would cost in the
neighborhood Of $4,000. 1t was said last
night that the board will have to borrow
at least $4,000 to make the final payments
on some of the other buildings put up this
fall.
On motion of Commissioner Robson the
board voted to make some improvements at
school No. 40. The rooms in this building
are insufficfently lighted and 1t Is claimed
the building is not properly heated.
Charles w. Moores, A NJ. Sweeney and
H c. Sickels, newly-elected school commits
sioners, met with the board last night.
