The Budget and the Schools

THAN The Timcs-D Dispatch the public school
system of Richmond has no frmer friend.
The fine work which is being done, the great

cite our admiration. and every project Of

for higher pay for underpaid teachers, has
received our Endorsement Our motives will

toward the school budget.
After expressing his understanding OF the
citys financial condition and his appreciation

gladly cooperate with them in trying to live
within our means. | feel sure that in
the event we are not able to adjust matters
without cutting out some important features
Of our work, the City Council will gladly make
supplementary appropriation"
We hope Or. Chandler will approach the
solution OF his financial problem--a problem
not peculiar to the schools, but common to
all branches Of the city government--in a
somewhat different spirit. Not only must he
try TO keep within his appropriation; lie must
succeed. If the Police Department. the Fire
Department. and the Health Department the
Gas and Water and STRENGTHENING Depart
ments content themselves with trying not
to spend more than they have been allowed
we shall return in the course Of the year TO
that condition from which the Finance Com
mittee and the Council are endeavoring to
lift us. The only way to live within an ap-
preparation is to make up ones mind in ad-
vance that more than the appropriation will
not be expended
In the past, departments which have not
been allowed all they thought they needed
have gone calmly ahead and spent a dispro-
portonate amount in the earlier months OF
the fiscal year AS the year drew to close
therefore, Council confronted with the
choice OF making further appropriations or
consenting to the lapse Of n necessary public
