The usual list of possible candi-

these are Clifton C. Shinn, president

EDUCATION BOARD
HEAD CRITICISED
BY LOCAL SCHOOL
Alumni of ST. Roses School OBJ
ject to Statement Regarding
Parochial institutions.

ton condemning alleged derogatory
remarks bearing on the parochial

The priest also mentioned that Rev
John A. Dillon, supervisor of the pal
rochial schools in the Newark dio-z

uca ton about the assertions Mr.. Tay-
lor was reported to have made and
had received no reply to his letter.
When st. Rose of Lima's School
was opened, Father McKeever added,
it was inspected by the Board of Edu-
cation and highly praised by the COM
missioners. 4
Father Dillon, who was also onea
of the speakers, carefully avoided
any allusion to the controversy, but
dwelt on his subject, Loyalty" He
said the alma mater expected the
alumni to follow out what had been
implanted in their minds and hearts,
There were also remarks by Rev:
John A. Hogan, assistant pastor of
the st. Rose of Lima Church, and
Rev. Michael Corcoran, pastor of st.
Johns Church. Father Valerian, o.
S. B., was seated at the speakers
table, Rev. Thomas ]. Martin, curate
of the st. Rose of Lima Church and
moderator of the alumni society, was
POSTMASTER.
Reference was made to the fact
that June would be the thirty-third
anniversary of the ordination to the
priesthood of Father McKeever.
There was an interesting program
rendered in connection with the
speeches. There were vocal selections
by members of the alumni, a recita-
ton by Miss May Richie, national
dance by Miss Irene Connolly and
violin solo by Leonard Stanton.

BOND ISSUE FOR
/ SCHOOL OPPOSED
Summit Residents Hold That
Tax Rate Is Already
/ Too High.

SUMMIT. May 27-The Board Of
School Estimate will probably have to
postpone its meeting from tomorrow
hntil Saturday night, because the
members do not know how much the
State is going to appropriate
The Board Of Education wants the
Board of School Estimate 10 ask
council for $50, 900 for a new high
school site on Maple street, as re-
Gently and exclusively announced in
the Evening Star. This has brought
adverse comment. The board is conf
dent that the requisition will be
passed, despite the opposition of
Mayor Bergen and some of the coun-
cilmen.
The money, however, will require
a bond issue, and it is said that the
councilmen are with Mayor Bergen
in thinking that a bond issue would
be inopportune this year.
Many taxpayers also oppose another
bonds issue. They point out that the
many vacant houses here and mac
tivity in real estate sales and build
ing operations is largely due to the
much advertised high tax rate, and
which now threatens TO go much
higher without considering another
bond issue.
Another criticism freely made is
of the practise followed by the
Board of Education in accepting pu-
pills from outside school districts at
a uition fee of $40. While this city
receives between $50 and $25 for a
pupil annually from the State sp-
preparation for public schools it is
maintained that the real cost of tut
ton for each pupil in the schools
here reaches $50. In the charge made
for the out-of- town pupils and with
the receipt of the per capita money
from the State it is held no allow
ance is made for the large sums the
city spends to build the schools.
In the city of Newark the charge
for each high school pCpi IS $75 per
year, and 1t is argued b. taxpayers
here that a similar chal &c should
be made by this city. 1t il also said
that property owners and home keep
ers are sueiently burdened with the
present high tav rate and they are
therefore strongly opposed to the
land purchase scheme for this year,
as it is declared if the land is OBJ
tanned this year it is likely to be but
year or two when an appropria-
ton for a new high school will be
sought, which will probably cost
$4,000.
