BOARD
SCORED IN HOUSE
Representative MondeII Sees
No Reason for Postponing
School Opening.

Representative Monden Of Wyoming. in
terday. criticised the action Of the board
Of education in postponing the opening Of
the schools Of the District until October 2.
Representative Mondell said:
Tho board Of education in voting for
this postponement is following what It
understands to be the public sentiment on
tho question. They have letters, 1t IL
said. requesting postponement including.
let It be noted. one from tho Secretary
Of tho Treasury. My opinion is that
there arc not per cent of the parents Of
this city who desire to have the opening
Of school postponed and base that opin-
ion on the fact that most people desire to
have their children educated and there
fore do not desire to have terms of school
unreasonably shortened when there is no
good reason for it, as there Is not in this
case.
Reason Assigned for Action.
Primarily. the postponement is charg-
ed to the prevalence OF infantile paralysis.
although infantile paralysis Is not and
has not been prevalent in Washington,
there having been very few cases and
most OF them very mild. But. 1t is said
paralysis may be brought in by the chill
dren coming from their summer vaca-
uons
1T is notorious that there has been no
infantile paralysis In tho summer and
vacation resorts. And yet. out of these
two perfectly favorable factors. the board
OF education deduces an unfavorable con-
ciusion. The newspaper article closes
with tho observation that there was a
strong sentiment evinced by members of
the board for making the date, October
y. permanent one, and, 1t Is stated, a
committee was appointed to consider tho
question. We have here, in my opinion,
the real milk in the cocoanut The In
fantiie paralysis argument is merely toted
In as an excuse.
able board Of education. my opinion is
that 1t viii be long time before the
Washington school year is further short
ened. 1t Is already quite short enough,
and with the numerous holidays and half
holidays, which are declared and pro-
vfded for on all sorts and kinds of trivial
and trifing excuses, some people have
begun to wonder whether the schools of
washington are conducted for the pur-
pose of giving the children Of the Dis
trict an education or for the benefit of the
teachers and the entertainment Of the
board Of education. 1t will be noted, in
tho board was careful to investigate as
to whether the teachers salaries would
be affected and only agreed to the post
ponement when assured that the teachers
would not lose anything, however much
the schools might suffer.
