ture on wednesday BY Senator Lock-

cation. is not the bill favored by the
Mitchell administration. but Il Is likely to
be accepted AS a compromise measure.
Mayor Mitchell. Chamberlain Bruere
and others believe that the best results
could be obtained from = Board o:
Education OF nine members. A bill pro-
viking for that number was introduced
On February 20 BY Asscmbiyman Bren.
nan. but has received scant attention.
The Mayor said yesterday:
II have felt for some time tina. the
board should be reduced to nine MEM
ben, but 1: tho least the Legislature will
give Us IL twenty-one that might he ac-
cepted as some measure of relief and a
in the right direction"
Comptroller Prcndergsst said he had
not seen the -kincAd bill. but
he saw no reason 20 protest against It's
provisions A. reported. He thought the
city administration had scored An i'm
p0etant victory in having the appointing
power retained In the Mayors hands.
Thu part Of the bill tina. especially In
terested Mr.. Bruere was the clause per.
mitting the board 60 receive an appro-
prtation equal 20 a . mill tax on the
real and personal property OF the city.
Under tho present Law "A 3 mill tax
goes to the schools. That tax this year
amounted 20 s:5.3s?.431. 1t did rot
begin TO pay for the schools. Virtually
d.sregardlng the tax. the board appro-
priated S39.sS5,ssl, OF which s33.555.64l
went into the genera! school fund and
ts.3io.340 into the special fund.
II the Board OF Education his year
had had the benefit OF "A , mill tax 4
would rave obtained s4l.o3s.lli. But
Mr.. Prendergas. understands that tie
bill provides that permanent improve
ments. as well a. maintenance. shall be
paid for GU; o: the . mill taA.
"A schoo board OF ;wen;y-one MEM
bers IL better than a board of forty-six.'
oA.d Mr.. Bruere. Nine would be ade-
quAte. but the proposed cut is better
than none.
IF. az reported. the Boarl u Estl-
mate In 10 have no control % the spend-
Ing of the . mill tax that IL all objection
abie feature. Compensation may pos
sibly be found In added responsibility OF
the Board OF Education. | understand
that this provision was inserted Ia the
bill becs use without IL the Legislature
was unwilling - reduce the number of
members OF the board and to leave the
appointing power with the Mayor. -:
course the Board OF Education would
have TO give All accounting and It's
books would continue to te audited by
the Comptroller.
THE bill is not perfect. but perhaps
II NJ as much as We can hope for at
this time"
