Will We Ever Catch Up?

The board Of education, after whiting
down it's budget to the lowest limit Oh
reasonableness, asks the board of tax levy
for Al 3119o. This includes $110, ,29O for
new school buildings. If everything the
board asks is granted, 1t Will still De De-
hind the demands made on It, Inc ne"
buildings asked for are only sufflclent 10
take care Of the children who are no"
attending school in ninety-three basement
rooms, annexes and recitation-rooms
When the next school year comes around
there will be no suitable accommodations
for the 1000 new school children and the
unsuitable emergency-rooms will have 10
be used again.
This relation of capacity to attendance
has become chronic. The capacity Is al
WAYS at least q year behind the attend
ance.
Why not catch up?
If we were caught up now the annual
appropriations for new buildings would
keep us abreast the teeming hundreds OF
new children that surge into the primary
grades each year in this city that knows
not race suicide. We are increasing our
school expenditures as rapidly, perhaps
as the school population Increases, but
somehow we allowed the supply to get
behind the requirement, and we have
never had the nerve to face the situation
and put forth the effort necessary to bring
school capacity UP to school demands.
The time to catch up is in good times
The natural tendency to lag will asser
itself in bad times. Yet the chances arr
that the board of tax levy, confrontet
by demand for low rate, will not Civ
the board as much as it asks, and
meeky, if not weakly, failed to ask TO
as much as the full discharge Of it's dut,

Wages by Decree.

There have been labor troubles in
Guatemala. The president of the republic
decided that it was up to him to settle
them. So he issued a decree that there
after plantation lahorers should be paid
$3.50 a day paper money. This Is equiva-
lent to rs cents silver, and is about twice
what the laborers have recently been re-
cejving.
This is certainly an easy way to settle
labor troubles if you have the power be-
hind your DEGREES to enforce them. There
is no dilly -dallying with strikes and ar
bitration and committees and all the rest
Of the palaver that generally goes with
the settlement Of a labor dispute. Instead
the president just announces new wage
scale and gives it out cold that he pro-
poses to enforce it. ,..
The president justifies his arbitrary
action on the ground of reasonableness
and also that on account of the peculiar
labor laws of the country there is no other
| way in which relief can be given to the
| laborer. In Guatemala men of the peor
class must work An idle man is liable tc
arrest. There is no escape for them by
means Of strikes. Therefore, the presi
dent holds that it is his duty to see tha
they get living wage.
| The presidents intentions are good
even if his notions of political economy ar,
somewhat crude. ~-..

give the street department the daily
sweepings from his store. Yesterday he
put his sweepings into box. In sim
liar box he placed a handsome velvet
gown to be sent to a customer.
The box containing the gown was sent
to the dump, while the box of sweepings
was sent to a young woman who was
