Quotation From the Review.
Under the head of Notes ard News and
the suhhead of THE School Situation IN
Wasfngton' is the following:
Just before the adjournment of Con-
gross a correspondent res dent in Wash
irgton. and thereby informed as to public
school matters, wrote:
school affairs are improving. but are III
a bau plight yet. We hope Tor nothing
from this Congress. 1ncoinFetency ana
disioy alty within combine with political IN
trigue ana Grass Phil stian.sm without, 10
intimidate teachers. to degrade the Schools,
to hamper. nisrepresent and Inaiisn the SUI
perint-ndent ana to make this the most
difficult and vital problem for school ad-
minis ration. PERHAPS, in America.
Naturally. tie superintendent mas hau
some fliculty in adjusting himself to this
complex and treacherous environment. He
has not faltercd III his duty or made any
serious error in fact this bitter oppo-
sition is not based on alleged errors OF ad-
minstraticn. but upon his infieXible refusal
to reappoint the Incompetent anu hagrantly
immoral as teachers and officials, though
backed by powerful political and financial
interests invunerably intrenched.
The trouble is that for the first time
in the history of the District high pro-
fessional educational ideals and standards
are being substituted for old-time political
methods of administration. Naturally,
those deposed are putting up determined
fight. The superintendent will need the
active support of his strongest friends,
political and educational, to finally win
this fight "
