Mr.. Arthur Browne and also from
Pauline Worth Hamlin regarding
flags that had been exposed to the

that Mr.. Browne should be criticized
for speaking about our flag as a dirty
rag" The other writer also speaks
about dirt and tatters' in connection
with the emblem of4the nation.
1t is amazing, sir, how impudent
some people are! To call. the flag un-
der which our fathers died, a dirty

MODERN SCHOOL PLAN
Rockefeller Movement Called Challenge
10 Liberal Culture

Robert Underwood Johnson, former
editor Of THE Century Magazine"
added his voice TO the chorus which has
already criticised the Rockefeller plan
for educational reform yesterday
afternoon. "The defects, the narrow
ness. the lack Of vision of the whole
propaganda constitute nothing less than
challenge TO every man Of liberal
culture he said.
Mr. Johnson made his attack while
presiding 40 the public lecture course
of the American Academy Of Arts and
Letters at the Chemists Club.
81 am not speaking Of the decision to
eliminate Latin and Greek" he con-
tinuod. though this scheme might well
provide for a practical investigation of
the part these studies have played in
the education Of men of character and
thought; but the new system is frank
~ utilitarian TO the verge Of material
ism. falling i'm with that incomplete
preparedness. whether for life or war,
that leaves out Of account the main ele-
ment in the true greatness Of nations
the supremacy Of noble ideas.

men of the highest standing in the pub
iic regard should put forth a scheme

Gov. Whitman Decides He
Has No Authority to
Stop Building
MUNICIPAL PLANT
WILL BE FINISHED
Nuisance Question To Be
Ruled On When Oper-
alton Begins

Prom star Correspondent, Of Tho Tribune
Albany, Jan. 25.-Staten Islands last
hope that the municipal garbage plant
now building on Lake Island would be
removed was blasted to-day when Cow
ernor Whitman announced that ne had
no authority to act in the matter.
Although the State Commissioner of
Health has certified that the consumer
when operated, will constitute public
nuisance, it is impossible for the Gov
ernor to act against it until it has
started work and established its unde-
STABILITY. In his opinion issued to-day
Mr.. Whitman says:
at is my opinion that the Governor
would not be authorized 20 issue any
order at this time because the statute
speaks of an existing nuisance. 1t is
evident that before I can order the
abatement of a nuisance II Is necessary
that the Commissioner Of Health cer-
tifv the existence of public nuisance
81 have directed the Sheriff and Dis
trict Attorney of Richmond County TO
inform me when the operation Of the
proposed garbage disposal works IS
commenced and garbage is transported,
so that may take such action as to me
shall seem just and proper at that
time"
The Governors decision fell upon the
garbage insurgents OF Staten Island out
of a clear sky. Last night they were
preparing for a fresh fight. Edward ?.
Dovle set out at once for Albany,
where he will urge Senator Cromwell
TO get a bill through the Legislature
forbidding the construction of garbage
plants in any county, unless by permis'
sion of the State Department of Health
and the inhabitants of that county.
Before / let that smell generator
begin work here" more than one in
surgent said last night, an dynamite
that building with my own hands"
The structure on Lake Island is now
more than two-thirds completed. 1t IS
believed that it will start operation on
May l. ,
There was nothing else that the
Governor could have done" Mayor
Mitchell said last night. "The plant
will be anything but q nuisance when IN
operation. Experts have so testified at
the hearings"
