CAVALLONLEADER
DENVER MAN CHOSEN TO d.
RECT MUNICIPAL BAND.
Frederick Neil Innes to Leave City at
Close of Auditorium Concert Sea-
son; Fifty Union Musicians.

Acting Mayor w. F. R. Mills an
nounced this week that Rafaello Cav
allo, the well known Denver musician
and band leader, had been engaged
as director of the municipal band to
succeed Frederick Neil Innes. Cav
allo has been identified with the musi-
cal enterprises of this city for more
than twenty years.
The contract with Mr.. Cavallo calls
for l0S park concerts between June
and September and for a band of not
less than fifty pieces, all Of whom it
is understood will be members of the
Musicians Union. Cavallo himself is
a prominent member of Denver Mus
ical Protection Association No. 20.
The contract price for the season is
$4,000.
The failure to renew the contract
with Frederick Neil Innes was due, it
is said, to the desire of the admins
tration to curtail the expense entailed
in the employment of the Innes organ
ization. Mr.. Innes has received S20,-
500 for his summer season, and $4,000
for Auditorium concerts during the
winter
The agreement with Cavallo has fol-
lowed negotiations covering a number
of months, in which the proposals OF
some other well-known musicians were
considered, the selection of Cavallo, in
the opinion of municipal authorities
being one which promises to find pop.
ular reception among Denver lovers
of music.
Cavallo organized the first sym.
! phony orchestra in Denver, known as
the Cavallo Symphony orchestra
which he directed for a number OF
years. He served as director of the
| Broadway orchestra for fourteen
years and as director Of the band al
/ Elitch's gardens for sixteen years. H,
was for five years in charge Of tbs
/ music at the Brown Palace hotel. Re

AS THE TWIG IS BENT
BY SCOTT NEARING

comparatively small number of men
from subordinate industrial positions
wage earners, clerks, foremen-are
found among the board members. This
type of board member is in the de-
cided minority. The vast majority
represent directly the business and
professional interests of the commun-
ity.
Reformers have been agitating ear
nestly for many years. They have
talked in halls and on street corners
Wherever they could find an audience
they have presented their case-occa-
sionally Meanwhile in season and
out Of season more than onc-haf mil
lion school teachers have been regu-
lHrly presenting TO some twenty mil
lion children q course OF studies and
point Of view which was decided
upon by n group Of professional and
business men who represent the we'll
to-do part Of American society. They
are the owners Of property. They have
every reason to be satisfied with
things as they are. They are not
rcvolutionists, in most cases they are
not even reformers. Many of them
are stand -pattcrs Of the most absolute
type.
The American children go to the
schools The schools are administered
by the boards of education. The
boards of education are composed al
most exclusively of business and pro
fessional people-the beneficiaries Of
the present system. Under these cir
cumstances would you expect the
schools TO teach liberty. justice and
the love of truth or the conservation
Of the property values of the commun-
ity? Even in America men cannot
gather grapes of thorns or figs of
thistlcs.

JANIToRs WIN A WAGE STRIKE.

Chicago fiat janitors won their
strike for higher wages and improved
conditions. These workers are afiiliat-
cd to the A. F. OF L. One of the first
owners to sign the new agreement
was Richard T. Race. contractor and
builder, who controls 200 apartments
Last year Race had difficulty with his
janitors, and at that time he declared
he would establish his own commits
sary to fight the strikers. He capit-
ulated at the end of n week. On this
occasion Races janitors were out one
hour when he signed an. agreement
calling for wage increases that in
some cases amount to $50 a month.
AS result of the strike seeding
union of fiat janitors has voted TO
join the regular body.

The American schools hold the key
to the future of democracy. For at
least eight years the children of the
United States are now required 10
attend schools which are being more
and more highly organized under the
direction of the boards of education
and the school administrative officials.
From all sides comes the demand FOR
efficiency and for standardization
The schools are 10 be made ahke-
they are TO turn out definite product
What are the schools being made
lize7
turn out7
The answer TO these questions rests
with the boards Of education, the
members Of which, thru their official
position, finally decide questions OF
school policy.
The field Of thought must be trans
fcrrcd from the schools TO those who
direct them and we must ask our
selyes-Who are the boards Of edu-
cation? The facts permit Of only
one answer.
A study of the occupation Of mem
bcrs Of boards Of education in lOi Of
the largest American cities shows that
OF the gG7 school board members, I66,
or more than three -fourths are busi-
ness and professional men. The busi-
ness men form the largest single
group with a33 of the total number
of board members. OF these business
men, la were merchants, Io were
manufacturers, 10. were bankers,
brokers. real estate and insurance
men.
Among the 333 professional men,
lls. or more than one third were doc
tors and dentists; lss or about two
ffths were lawyers. The total num-
Der OF teachers among the profcs
sionaI men was ls. These were for
the most part college professors.
The board members with misccl-
laneous occupations include about
one-fifth of the total board members.
of these q were retired business
men, IS were clerks and statesmen, 3e
were mechanics and wage-earners,
and 25 were foremen.
In the ordinary American industrial
city wage carners and clerks make up
about fivc-sixths of the total number
of gainfully occupied persons. Among
all of the members OF the boards of
education in these l04 principal cit
les Of the United States, four in each
hundred are mechanics and fve in
each hundred are clerks and statesmen.
Thus more than nine-tcnths Of the

consideration fall outside of the class
which makes up five-siNths of the
population. Or, to put the matter
somewhat differently, nine-tenths Of
the school board members of the large
American cities are selected from one
sixth of the gainfully occupied popu-
lation which is above the rank of
wage-carner or clerk.
Five occupational groups include
the bulk of board members - mer-
chants; manufacturers; bankers, brok-
crs and real estate men; doctors and
lawycrs-55S out of n total of 967
board members Thus more than
rec-fifths of the total number of
members are engaged in five groups
of business or professional occupa-
tions.
American school board members are
primarily business and professional
men. A very few women occupy pos
itions on the school boards and
