Says Board Is Confirmed.

In the opinion Of W. d. Hoover, a
member OF the board of education, this
report Of the municipal architect has
confirmed the opinion OF the board
that more money should be allowed the
schools for larger salaries for better
equipped janitors.
. The complaint to Commissioner Jud-
son from the municipal architect is based
on a series of experiences with forty
dollar-a-month janitors. who have had
trouble in starting the gas engines which
are used III forcing heat through the
heating systems Of the schools,
IF this report of. Mr. Ashford was
made to reflect on the schools" said Mr.
Hoover, II should say it had failed
somewhat. for 1t merely strengthens our
claim that Congress should allow us bet
ter pay, SO we can get better janitors."
Mr.. Hoover Is a member Of the board

Mr.. Hoover Is not alone in his opinion
as the details OF Mr.. Ashford's plant to
Commissioner Judson were referred to

JAN|TORS ARE BLAMED
FOR ENGINE TROUBLES

Snowden Ashford. municipal architect,
received recently a lengthy letter from a
gas engine expert employed by the firm
which supplies the public schools with
many such engines. The letter laid all
the trouble the schools are having with
engines to the janitors.
1t was sent to Commissioner Judson by
the municipal architect with the comment
that the letter confirms the municipal
architects belief that Sanitors are not
properly instructed and are not impressed
with the responsibility for the care of ap-
paratus and buildings" Mr.. Ashford says
further concerning the janitors:
