formed loyalty league among teach
ers, and a vigilance society among
pupils to stamp out the alleged men

Teachers Union Issues Pamphlet
The Teachers Union, in d pamphlet
issued yesterday, asserts that the Illds-
lev investigation was not inspired by
desire for Americanism in the schools
but was instituted under the gllse OF
natriotism merely TO punish the teach
ers Of De Witt Clinton for their oppo-
sition to John Whalen. chairman OF the
Board of Education's Committee on
High Schools.
According to this pamphlet which
bears upon its back blank for con-
a L.
tributions to the defence fund.- the
cry of sedition in the schools was
raised only after the teachers OF DC
Witt Clinton had passed resolutions
denouncing Mr.. Whalen for his asser-
lions to students striking against the
heightened hours--"l want you 10 uh-
derstand that neither the teachers nor
pupils will be allowed to run inc
schools" and II want you to under-
stand that if you pupils don't go back

the allegations against her, but ner
answers to our questions were highly
unsatisfactory. and the committee, by
vote Of to !, decided to recon-
mend her dismissal.
"The statements she is accused OF ut
tering were not spoken in her cIa'j
room, and the question on which there
may be a division in the board is just
how far may the school authorities go
in the case Of teacher who, outside
her school room, employs freedom oil

Massachusetts, Fears
Invasion of Arctic Hawks

BOSTON, Nov. 2s.--A warning to
sportsmen and others that dangerous
migration of goshawks from Arctic
regions to this state is in progress has
been issued by the state fish and game
commissioners and the Massachusetts,
Fish and Game Protective Association.
The commissioners urge the destruc-
ton of these birds, which are described
as deadly enemies Of native game birds.
The present invasion is said to be
the most serious since that Of eleven
years ago, when the birds, driven
southwark by scarcity of hare and
ptarmigan, their usual prey, came to
this state and devoured grouse by the
wholesale.
The goshawk, which, unlike other
hawks, flies straight away instead of
in circles. is somewhat larger than a
pigeon.
