Assistant Superintendent Denies
Charges.
Assistant Superintendent of Public
Instruction Acasio Gallegos feels
keenly the charge made by La Re
vista Catolica which accuses him of
having addressed the Normal Insti-
tute at Las Vegas to the effect that
the Catholic schools were being run
for money Mr.. Gallegos has affidavits
from teachers who heard his address
or any remarks that can be construed
in that manner. Mr. Gallegos said
today: 1T always has been my view
and | have frequently expressed it
that but for the Catholic institutions
founded as long ago as 1851 and 1859
and for the mission schools, the edu-
cation of the Spanish-American peo-
pie would have been greatly neglect
ed. Notwithstanding the attacks up
on me l will continue to give those
schools full credit for the splendid
work they are doing and the great
benefit they are to the people. My
Impression is that La Revista Catoli-
ca has been misinformed'
Notaries Public.
