WANT BUSINESS BRANCH
At THE EASTERN HIGH
Citizens Association Discusses the Ne
cessity for the Establishment of
Such a Branch.

The need OF a business department
in the Eastern High School for the &C
coramodation of pupils residing in the
southeast and northeast sections OF
the city was brought up last night ar
a meeting of the East Washi 1Sto1 Cltl-
ems Association. President Thomas W.
Smith. in presenting the proposition
said that for the Board of Education 10
grant the request would be only an act
of fairness to the people OF the sections
represented by the association. lie
pointed out that under the present or
rangement pupils from the southeast
were compelled TO go at least three miles
to attend the new Business Hlgh
School. which. during the severity or
the winter. meant serious hardship
The facilities in the Eastern High Schooi
were ample. he said. TO provide for the
proposed business department. and that
in his opinion It was only necessary to
secure the acquiescence of the Board OF
Education TO have the arrangement ef-
fected I'm time for the school opening
next fall.
A resolution introduced by w. n.
White. chairman OF the school commit
tee. opposing the appointment of the
members of the Board OF Education by
the Judges of the Supreme Court, as
provided in a bill now pending before
Congress. and faVorinK their appoint
ment by the District Commissioners, as
under the present arrangement; was
adopt ed. A recommendation for the ap-
poirtrnent of two members of the Board
of Education TO represent the southeast
section WAS made by Mr.. White, his
claim being that the increased popula-
ton of that section warranted the addi-
tionaI member.
