The following resolutions were in
dOrsed by the New York City Federation
OF Women's Clubs, in convention assem-
bled, October "A. 1913:
Whereas for several years the New
York City Federation of Women - clubs
has urged the Board Of Education to APP
point women to the higher positions in
the schools; and
Whereas at the last meeting OF the
City Federation OF Women's Ciuos reso,
lutions were adopted asking the Board
of Education 10 appoint women as super
intendents of schools; and
Whereas i'm spite of these resolutions
three men were appointed To the vacan-
ces which then existed. and
Whereas one girls high school and one
mixed high school have been opened this
tall, and in each OF them the principal
is a man, although II is Nitally important
that girls in their adolescent years should
have the inspiration of the example of Il
fine woman at the head of their school !:
Therefore resolved, That the Federated
Clubs of this city, in convention assem-
bled do hereby express their Indignation
at the continued ignoring OF their re-
quests by the Board OF Education
Resolved. That we feel that the slight
that has thus been put upon us is due to
the fact that the mothers OF the city are
not properly represented in the bodies
that control school affairs.
Resolved, That we demand OF Mayor
Kline that he appoint women TO not less
the Board of Education this fall.
Resolved. That we demand that the
Borough President i'm filling vacancies
this fall do appoint so that there shall
be not less than two women on each
local board In the city.
Resolved. That a copy of these resolu-
tions be sent TO the Mayor. the Board
of Education, the Borough President and
to the press OF the city.
