Board of Education Member
Replies to Criticism.
SUBSTITUTION OF NAMES
Defense of Assistant Superintendent
Montgomery.
MISREPRESENTATION ALLEGED
Says Colored Schools Should Be Re-
lieved of Odium Due to
False Reports.

Superintendent Chancellor of the public
schools has indicated that he does not In
tend to investigate the matter of the al
legged substitution Of names in a list of his
recommendations by DIR. w. S. Montgom-
cry, assistant superintendent for the col
ored schools. However, there continues
to be some feeling regarding the incident
among members of the board of education
Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, a member Of
the board is interested in statements that
have been made regarding DIR. Montgom-
cry. She says she is acquainted with the
facts in the case.
Mrs. Terrell had the following to say In
regard to the situation in conversation with
a Star reporter yesterday:
During the last few days so much has
been said about the treachery and du-
plicity of the colored assistant superin-
tendent, who has been unjustly accused of
trying to smuggle names of night school
teachers to the board, contrary to the eX-
press wishes of the superintendent, that l
feel somebody acquainted with the facts
should reply. Not only has the colored
assistant superintendent been grossly mis-
represented, but the colored members of
the board are now coming in for their
share of attention also. 1t Is openly
serted that several colored members of the
board entered into the conspiracy with the
colored assistant superintendent, If they
did not actually hatch the plot themselves.
If this were the first time the press of the
city had come out in glazing headlines an
nOuncing the dishonest and interruptions
methods to which the assistant superin-
tendent and now the colored members of
the board have resorted, 1 could keep
silent under the attack. but as one of the
colored members of the board l feel it is
my bounden duty to do everything in my
power to relieve the colored schools of the
odium attaching to them because of these
false reports

tendent and now the colored members of

silent under the attack. but as of the
colored members of the board | feel it is
my bounden duty to do everything in my
power to relieve the colored schools of the
odium attaching to them because of these
false reports.
Alleged Duplicity.
I'm giving an account of the colored as
sistant superintendent alleged duplicity,
one paper declared: 1t was directly charged
by member of the board that if the mat
ter was sifted to the bottom it would de-
velop that Dr. Montgomery acted in ac-
cordance with the expressed wishes of GER
tain members of the board when he recon-
mended c. x. Wormley, A. L. Craig and
Miss, Russell for appointment as night
school, teachers instead of Bruce Evans, c.
H. Madella and Miss N T. Jackson as in
structed by Superintendent Chancellor.
I'm the first place | cannot believe that
any member of the board of education
would prefer charge against another, I'M
less he were absolutely certain that the
facts in the case warranted him In taking
such a step. And even if one member of
the board were sure that another had erred
in judgment, cannot believe he would rush
to the press TO expose and accuse him.
But it is unnecessary to sft the matter at
all to discover that ! for one did discuss the
matter of appointing night school teachers
with DIR. Montgomery before they were
handed to the superintendent, just as the
meeting was called to orde rlast Tuesday
afternoon. 1t was my privilege as a men,
Der of the board of education to discuss the
matter with DIR. Mont gomery and my duty
TO express an opinion the subjects he
presented. Not only did l express an opin-
ion on the subject, but after listening to the
reasons for making some of the changes
suggested l told the assistant superintend-
ent that l heartily approved Of his course.
So long as l remain on the board of educa-
ton | shall not hesitate to concern myself
deeply about every phase Of our school
life, nor shall | refrain for any reason
whatsoever 10 express my views. | am per-
sonally acquainted with at least two thirds
of our teachers in the colored schools and
goodly number in the white. Having
been one of the first two women appointed
to serve on the board of education in this
city, l acted in that capacity for five years
and then resigned, so that L can at least
claim a bit of knowledge and a modicum Of
experience to guide me in dscharging my
duties today.

Not Opposed to Evans.

"In commenting upon the assistant super
intendent's decision to recommend Mr..
Wormley for the assistant dictatorship of
night schools, one paper declares that he
acted according to suggestions from colored
DR.. Evans Concerning this alleged opposi-
ton to DR.. Evans, l can only speak for my
self When DR.. Montgomery discussed the
night school appointments with me nothing
was said by either one of US about DR..
Evans lack of qualitica tons to fill that
position creditably. Dr. Montgomery did
call my attention TO the fact that DIR. Evans
receives $1,000 a year as principal of the
Armstrong Manual Training School, while
position, and is young man of fine char
acter, receives but a small salary and has
a family to support.
Nothing will define my attitude to Dr.
Evans more clearly than the stand i took
concerning him, when the principalship of
the Armstrong Manual Training School
was to be settled When DR.. Chancellor
announced that nobody had qualified, after
the examination of candidates who wished
to secure that position had been held, /
was the first to request DR.. Chancellor to
reappoint DR.. Evans principal of the Arm
strong Manual Training School. If l had
been bitterly opposed to him that re-
rectorship of night schools 1 should GER
tainly not have supported him for the
principalship of the Armstrong Manual
Training School. even though nobody else
had qualified. 1t is clear, therefore, that
there is not, this bitter opposition toward
members of the board which those who
wish to stir up strife among school Off
Gals are trying to make the public be-
lieve.
