Penny Lunches Cut OFF
In Two More Schools
No. 100 and Institution for the
Deaf Latest to Suffer for
Lack of Funds

Penny lunches were discontinued in
two more schools esterday-Public
School 120, a probationary school, and
the school for the dear, at Second Ave
nue. and Twenty-third Street.
Gustave Straubenmuller, Associate
Superintendent of Schools, who has had
charge Of the luncn service. declared
that the action was taken because the
Board of Education has no money to
pay those employed in serving and
cooking the lunches. The Board of
Education cannot draw on the $4,000
appropriated for lunches during the
present year because the Board of
Estimate has not created the positions
required in the service.
DR.. Straubenmuller explained that
the action will work an especial hard
ship on the children of the two schools
The deaf children, he said, come from
great distances, and cannot go home for
lunches as can the children OF other
schools, while in the probationary
school only few of the children are
allowed to leave during the noon hour

Called to Order
Ne,U Member Cited BY
Speaker for Violation
Of Rule about Talking

LONDON, Dec. 3.-Lady Astor, the
only woman member of the House of

Ing on measure and stopped to chat
with another member within the bar"
where nobody is allowed to stand. The
Speaker called "Order!" but Lady
Astor, unaware she was addressed, con-
tinued talking. Thereupon the Speaker
raised his voice and repeated his warn
ing.
lady Astor turned around quickly
realized her mistake, stepped quickly
beyond the bar and continued her con-
versation there
In letter published in London news
papers this morning, Lady Astor, NJ. P.
asks that she be regarded as - regu-
lar working member of Parliament and
not curiosity"
She complains that throughout her
campaign for election she was sub
jected to great deal OF misrepresenta-
tion. Instead of reporting the prin-
ciples for which l Stood" she says
the newspapers were more anxious fol-
good headlines, so they used what they
called my witty responses"
