EDUCATION BOARD
FAvORS CHANGING
HIGH SCHOOL SITE
Considers Action of Preceding
Board in Selecting Alpine
st. Land a Blunder.

That the Board of Education will to-
night unanimously agree that it's prede-
cessors blundered in selecting the Rip
ley property at the corner of johnson
avenue and Alpine street, as a site for
the new South Side High School, be-
came positively known today.
Responsibility for the mistake does
not rest altogether upon the preceding
school board, of which David A. Nc
Intyre was president, as it is charged
that the board had no alternative than
to accept the site.
Henry NJ. Doremus. the then mayor,
it is alleged, made it imperative that
the out-of-the-way site be selected.
Mayor Doremus, IL is charged. insisted
that If the school board did not take
the Ripley property he, as the con-
trolling and influencing power of the
Board of Estimate and Apportionment,
would see to 1t that no appropriation
would be forthcoming for the much
needed South Side High School.
Board Bowed TO Mayors Ukase.
Reluctantly the School Board ac-
cepted the inevitable, but it is known
that the then president of the School
Board, David A. Mcintyre, and a ma
jority of the school commissioners,
favored a site close to or upon Clinton
avenue, somewhere between Elizabeth
and Belmont avenues. the natural
school centre of the south side district.
Tonight the Clinton Hill Improvement
Association will make its organized ap-
peal to the School Board for the adop-
ton of the Hassinger tract on Clinton
avenue, between Hillside and Ridge
wood avenues, as the ideal site, but 1t
is doubtful If the commissioners will
take definite action until the subject
is more thoroughly inquired into.
Frederick F. Guild, president of the
Board of Education, in talking OF the
South Side High School proposition to-
day with an EVENING STAR man,
said
President Outspoken for Change.
Il believe I voice the sentiment of
every member Of the present Board of
Education when 1 say that the old
school board made a bad mistake in
the selection of the Alpine street prop
erty as the site for our proposed new
High School. 1t is by no means an
ideal schoolhouse site 1t is incon-
venient and would merely serve to
hide beautiful new High School build
ing such as we intend to erect. To APP
proach the site from Elizabeth avenue
the pupils would be obliged to climb a
terrific hill and to reach it from Clin-
ton avenue they would have a ten
minutes walk. ,
physically, the land is all right for
school purposes, but its accessibility is
against it. You might find suitably
adopted school land out in the coun
try, but that would be no reason why
a Newark high school for Newark
pupils should be built there.
The Ripley property of itself is m
sufficient for the purpose as additional
land would be required The school
board has acquired other property en-
johnson avenue, but there is a lot

tc the nation wrought by the tariff
statutes.
"Well. Congress did convene in spe-
cial session as promised, and did revise
the tariff, but not downwards as prom
ised. In vain did President Taft plead
with the Senate to keep the party falth
and to save him as the head of the
party as we'll as the government from
the humiliation of having his own party
repudiate his personal assurance as 10
tho meaning of the plank-aye, more,
his pledge to the people as to what
should he done under It, made in his
capacity as chosen leader.
1.-The Republican national machine,
however, would have none Of it. They
stood faithfully by the trusts, the cor
poratlons and the individuals who were
tariff beneflciaries and against the peo-
Pile Do you think II was easy for the
yoke e-bearing senators to do this in
the face of the earnest and honest ap-
peal of the President; in the presence
of the denuncations of other Repub-
lican senators who tore in pieces the
finasy excuses which the Regulars in
voked, at the same time mocking them
as the servitors of those who would
feast on the people? DO you think
that they did not shiver in their politi-
cal boots as they read the demands
of the press and the pleadings of their
constituents to keep the faith and re-
lieye the people from the oppressive
burdens that rest upon them so un-
justly? It presented undoubtedly the
most trying situation in their several
political lives.
"Then why did they do it. do you
ask? l answer they did it in obedience
to the demand of a corrupt national
Republican machine which hos for
years traded away the rights of the
people in return for money used to
strengthen the machine and buy votes
in doubtful congressional districts and
in close States. A course of dealing
long in vogue. which is responsible for

A heroic but futile effort was made
by Lieutenant Edward C. S. Parker, of
the battleship Connecticut, now at the
Brooklyn navy-yard. to rescue Seaman
T. l., Collins. a Newarker when the
sailor toppled into the water while

Whatever of excuse may be offered,
the ugly truth is. that the Republican
national machine has received the
moneys of the corporate and Individual
beneficiaries of the tariff, and in re-
turn have compelled Congress to keep
high the tariff rates and their attor-
ney-generals to close their eyes to vio-

in January, 1908. but 1t was not until
the following June that the budget was
adopted and not until the first of 1909
were the funds available. So, you see,
it's one thing for the Clinton hill people
to ask US to select a site entailing the
expenditure Of another 100000 and it's
still another thing to see your way
clear to financing the matter.

fore such an item as this suggested

Mr.. Guild admitted that the tendency
of the Clinton Hill section was to grow
toward Irvington and not to the south,
where the Johnson avenue site is 10

Fortunes Illegally Made.
The great bulk of the larger for
tunes have been wfung from the people
through the aid Of direct legislation
aided by non-enforcement OF law. That
Is, through the tariff and the COM
! binations to prevent competition, and
in restraint Of trade, created for the
purpose of securing from the public
every dollar which the tariff statute
made possible.
THE first tariff act was in 1882 and
the average duties were SI5 per cent
Now the average is so per cent.
In 1912 the average was 80 per cent
BY the Walker act Of 1886 they were
reduced to an average of about 25 per
cent. This worked so well that in 1857
the average was further reduced to 20
per cent. II probably would never
have been increased but for the war
for the census of 1860 disclosed a higher
percentage of increase of capital in
vested in manufacturing was greater
than during any similar period Of our
history
"The tariff bene6ciaries, however,
availed themselves OF the eXigencies
of the Civil War to secure two In
creases: the first to an average of 3715
per cent, the second to an average of
~ per cent, and now, forty-six years
later, the average is 30 per cent.
"rhe Republican party is responsible
for this increase from the average OF 90
per cent, as IL stood in 1852, to so per
cent. as it stands today. and for the
thousands OF millions OF dollars that
through 1t have been taken from the
people to create the swollen fortunes
that President Roosevelt denounced so
vigorously. Strange, is Il not, that
he did not then suggest that the way
to prevent their creation in the future
was to reduce the tariff which made
them possible.
Fails TO Keep Its Pledge.
"rhe Republican platform of 1908
seemed to recognize this injustice. True,
1t did not in terms promise a revision
of the tariff downwards. But its prom

tended to hold the tariff reduction Re-
publicans in line, while the trick in the
phraseology was to be made clear to
the tariff beucficiaries. But the deceit
was so promptly discovered and de-
nounced that 1t became necessary to
disown the fraud. President Taft as
the leader. while admitting that the
tariff could be revised up as we'll as
down, stated unequivocally that this
promise meant that the average Of
luties should be lowered. And his con-
struction of this Intentionally ambigu-
Gus phrase was accepted by his party
press and the platform speakers gen
orally. The effect was undoubtedly to
hold in line a vast army of Reubl-
cans who, while proud of the early
history of thely Aarty, and cherishing
