NEED Of NEW SCHOOL
AT H|LLSDALE DISCUSSED
Special Committee of the Citi-
zens' Association Makes
Report on Subject.

A report of the special school commit
tee of the Hillsdale Citizens Association
was presented last night at the Novem-
ber meeting of that body in Odd Fel-
lows Hail. on Sumner road. whereby an
endeavor was made to show the necessity
of an additional school building in that
suburb, as requested of the Commission
ers. The house-to-house canvass con-
Quoted by this committee. while not quite
completed showed that there are 625 chill
dren Of school age residing in the suburb,
and that of this number 563 are at pres
ent enrolled in the Birney school and
elsewhere.
1t was stated that the present building
was not large enough to care for the
children now attending, and that unless
additional space was provided 1t would
be useless to try and induce those not
now attending to attend. The association
wants an additional building, and it be-
lieves when the figures are finally COM
piled they will be convincing enough to
warrant favorable action.
1t was stated that a letter had been
received from the board of education con-
tanning the information that it was not
the intention to transfer any of the chill
dren now attending the Birney school
to the Garfield school, Notwithstanding
the fact that the latter school has ample
room, for the reason that Hillsdale was
too far from the school to be considered
within that territory.
Playground Partition Refused.
The request that partition be placed
at the Birney School to separate the
boys and girls Fairgrounds cannot be
granted under present conditions, it was
stated in another letter. owing to the
fact that these grounds are also used
for public Fairgrounds outside Of school
hours. and under the ruling Of the board
such grounds are to be kept free from
partitions. The association is to investi-
gate the matter further.
A communication from the Commission
ers contained the information that side
walk and curbing would be placed on the
west side OF Nichols avenue from How
ard street to Sumner road, the same to
be included In the next work to be ad-
vertised. Street lights are to be placed
on street south of Sheridan road, and
additional lights already have been placed
on Howard road from the railroad track
to the river.

Whether or not there will be or should
convened Immediately after the inaugu-
ration, continues to be one of the princi-
pal topics Of conversation among the few
national legislators who are in the city.
and there is a division Of opinion on the
subject. Representatives are mainly In
favor Of the extra session. but the demo-
cratic senators appear to be more con-
servative. Should the Congress be SO
convened Representative Henry Of Texas,
chairman of the Committee on rules, has
drafted a tentative program which in
cludes:
Destruction Of the protective tariffs as
now understood and the framing of new
duties along the o.d and well established
nnes Of democratic principles.
Enactment Of law putting into effect
a general income tax which will be rati-
fed by the requisite three-fourths Of all
the states In January.
Strengthening Of the Sherman anti
trust law and supplemental legislation
defining definitely what is a trust and
making more severe the criminal penal
ties for vocation.
Revision of the financial system and
laws along democratic lines.
Judge Henry is close to President-elect
Wilson and was one of his earliest sup
mittee on rules 1t falls on him finally to
put through a rule that enables the
democrats to get vote In the House

In Close Touch With Wilson.

Representative Henry is a strong Wilson
man and is in close touch with the poll
cies and views of the President-to-be.
However, he said today he Is not quail
fed to say whether or not an extra ses-
sion will be called.
Representative Carlin Of Virginia is on
the conservative side. He said:
Il certainly would not have a spring
session OF Congress. My plan would be
to have the ways and means committee
of the House and the finance committee
of the Senate reorganized and put to
work on the tariff at the earliest possible
moment The task is stupendous one
and could not be accomplished within less
than four or FIVE months. If the investiga-
ton could be made in advance of the
meeting much time and money could be
saved. and Congress could be called at
the convenience of the two committees
and Of the President"

Views Of Underwood.

Chairman Underwood Of the ways and
means committee, whose duty it will be to
formulate all tariff measures, Is not ex-
pected in Washington before November
90 The popular understanding among
members Of the House is that he desires
an early session for the consideration of
the tariff measures. and a majority Of
members express themselves as favorable
to this course. They take the position
that the democratic party is morally
bound to reduce the tariff schedules as
soon as possible, and they also privately
express the opinion that it Is in the in
terest of democratic politics to dispose
Of the tariff speedily.

While Parsons has not filed an an
swer he stated that 1t was exactly
J:30 o'clock, by his watch, when he
closed the polls, that he compared his
time-piece with that of another judge
and the hands on both dials register
ed the same. and furthermore, If any
thing, his watch was about minute
slow.
This case will be watched by q
great deal of interest and who knows
that the whole vote of Union town
