Schools Not Classed AS Lux.
uries

Editor of The Post
My dear Sir: 1t is quite true,.as
one Of the school board says in the
interview published in The Post
last week, that we should and must
practice the strictest economy in n
all school matters, at least until thu 4
end of the war. We are, everyone
trying new economics that We
never tried before and | believe
that most Of US are doing without
things that we never knew could
be done without, yet we are all
agreed that the last economy to be I
practised is one that will vitalk
affect the welfare Of our children
We grown people have had a
chance or half a chance as the
case may be, and we have to see
that our children get their chance
also. Those who can send their
children away, have done 50 for a.
number Of years but the poor
mans child needs more advantages,
and can have only what his own
town provides. AS the population
of Newark no longer fits the
schools, then the only thing to Do
/ is to make the schools fit the popu.
lation. It is not a case for private
giving, it's something that con.
Germs the whole people. The spOn.
taneous few who always subscribe
to everything are not always those
who are best able to give, often
they are the opposite. increased
taxation is, | am convinced, fair
er solution Of this problem, it i;
more like conscription and hit;
everybody. If we dig down nov
and pay a higher tax in order t
have our schools improved "
shall be very glad afterwards tina
we have so much done. after til
war" will bring plenty of problem
of its own.

Dear Sir:
In defense of the loyal women
who are voluntarily giving so
much of their time and strength to
the support Of the Red Cross, es-
pecially during the absence OF the
chairman, l wish to state that OF
the forty-one drafted men from
rural New Castle County who left
Newark on March fourth, the Of
fetal list gives Newark as the
home of only one and there is no
more reason that Newark should
have furnished the comfort kits
than any other town in rural New
Castle. If the writer Of the un-
patriotic attack on the Red Cross,
published in last weeks Post, sign
ed "a lover of Newark" could find
the courage to sign his Cor herr

damn President Wilson. for their aims

ference was squarcly in line with the
declaration Of the presidcnt."
Previously Mr Kellogg had told tho
league that the inter-Allied conference
in Nottingham had adopted a pro
gNamme calling for an inter r-bcllgcrcnt
conference to be held in Switzerland
as soon as convenient. and expressed
regret that the American Federation of
