PUBLIC SCHOOL REFORM
SURVEYS To BE P|JSHEDBY
CITY AND STATE OFFICIAL

The outcome of two surveys to be
made of the public schools of Atlanta
and sweeping reforms proposed IN the
system of instruction were anXiously
awaited by city officials Wednesday.
The City Council fathers will make
one of the inquiries, while the State
Superintendent of Schools. at the
urging of the School Board, will make
the other.
The reforms were proposed in the
form of three separate resolutions by
Commissioner r. j. Quinn at spe-
cial meeting of the Board of Educa-
ton.
Acted on Tuesday.
Although the question of a survey
was apparently passed upon at the
last meeting, the board devoted more
than an hour to its discussion Tues
day, Finally, however, Secretary
Landrum was instructed to inform
State Superintendent Britain that il
was the desire of the city that one of
the State supervisors make the in
Vestigation" Immediately.
During the discussion point was
raised by Commissioner Dan Green
that if a lrvey was made it should
be directed by the board. He argued
that it was the duty of each member
TO make a personal survey, and con-
tended that Mayor Woodward should
appoint an expert to conduct an in
vestigation, even if he had to go out
side the city or State for one.
Mayor Gives Views.
Commissioner Quinn expressed
himself in favor of Commissioner
Green's contention but claimed the
board should not consider the State
Board as being antagonistic.
What we want now is informa
ton" he said. THIS board should
engage someone to ferret out the
facts, not one to make recommends
tions about any particular school,"
Mayor Woodward remarked that

Spring has come!
True the gimlet-eyed person who
sees the first robin and hears it twit-
tering in. the trees is still hibernat-
ing not vet does the green grass grow
all around and tomorrow there may
be snow on the ground, and Jupe
Pluvius, to crib from the sporting
pages. may empty cloud or two on
our heads-but spring is here, all
Atlanta papas are pushing baby
carriages!
That's the one infallible sign that
it's time to take 'em off-that beauti-
ful spring. the season when the young
mans fancy does plain and fancy
turning, when men young and old
pawn their sense of humor and in
cite odes and sonnets to the light that
lies--most alWays-in WOman's eyes
lis with us. other signs may fail
the man who saw the robin last year
and for many years before that may
be near sighted this year, and the
green grass may not grow in your
yard because you forgot to SOW any
last year-but when you see Atlanta's
papas on parade, why, then spring is
here absolutely.

Further Inquiry Of
Trade Discrimination
At Fort Is Ordered

committee, composed of members
of the wholesale trade committee of the
Chamber of Commerce. will be appointed
Wednesday or Thursday by Chairman
Fort 10 further investigate alleged dis
ordinations against Atlanta merchants
in the bulk trade from Fort McPher-
son. At meeting of the whole trade
committee Tuesday it was brought out
that Atlanta merchants have to send
their samples to New York in order to
compete for the trade of the local post.
The Atlanta post, it is underst God, is
part of the Second Brigade, directly I'M
der the command of the First Division,
which has headquarters on Governors
Island New York. The division quar-
termaster has charge of all purchasing
of bulk supplies for Fort Mcpherson
and in consequence the orders are
placed with merchants in the East,
while only perishable goods are bought
here.

Redistricting Is Urged.
The Commissioner urged that here
after the board refuse to sanction Il
survey unless it was agreed that the
board receive the report and data.
Most conspicuous among the reforms
urged by Commissioner Quinn is one
contained in a resolution requiring
a complete redistricting of Atlanta's
public school system-mentioning IN
particular those schools which were
built with part of the 100000 bond
issue, and that particular attention be
paid to overcrowding.
Another reform provides for making
the maximum number of pupils Tor

The resolution requires the minimum
