out of his hands. 1t is understood that
four tentative bills carrying out the
ideas of the teachers are in course of
preparation for presentation to the
next session Of the Legislature. and
probably one or more of them will be
discussed at the federation meeting
on Tuesday.
The main purpose of the teachers is
to get more money for the schools of
this city. At the present time 40 mills
of the city's tax assessment is set aside
for the schools. Any excess required
above the funds so provided must come
from the city's budget, and the de-
mands Of the Board of Education must
pass under the criticism and revision
of the Board of Estimate and Appor-
tionment.
Estimates Have Been Cut
Experience has been tht under its
right of criticism and revision Of re-
quests for excess funds the Board of
Estimate and Apportionment has as
sumed the right to audit all the ac-
counts of the Board of Education. be-
ginning with the fund provided by the
40 mills set aside from the tax as
sessment, and has invariably made
huge cuts in the Board of Education's
estimates of its needs.
1t is to get away from this control bv
the Board of Estimate and Apportion-
ment that the teachers want an elective
Board of Educa ton, responsible onlv to
the State Department of Education,
while they propose two methods for
providing funds for the citv's schools.
The first plan is to raise to SO mills
or a higher fgurc-th promotion al
lowed to the schools from the city's tax
assessment. The other plan is to leave
the proportion fro mtho tax assessment
at 40 mills. but make it mandatory on
the city to supply whatever additional
funds the Board of Education might
ask Tor. In the second plan the Board
OF Estimate and Apportionment would
have no right Of revision of estimates
or audit OF accounts. The sole func-
ton OF the city government would be
to supply the funds demanded bv tho
Board of Education. while the right Of
audit and supervision would like with
the state Department Of Education.
Would Fix Definite Policy
Another advantage with an elective
board would lie in continuity of policy.
Under the present system the subordi
nate officers and officials of the Board
VI Huucd Vion remain IN once year after
year. and are able to lay out definite
policies. But, say the teachers. what is
the use OF their laying out policies
When every new Mayor appoints a new
Board Of Education that promptly pro-
ceeds to upset the plans Of their prede-
cessors and start in motion new set
OF short term ideas?
In starting their campaign for an
elective board the teachers arc going on
the assumption that members Of the
board pho prove their worth will be re-
elected from term to term and that the
clty Will thus acquire a definite policy
OF school development which will be
followed without interruption.

Instead of in the City

Preparations were begun yesterday
city Will launch soon to have the Board
OF Education made an elective body
instead of body appointed by the
Mayor. At meeting of the High
School Tcacchrs' Association at the
Waldorf Astoria the following resolu-
tion was unanimously adopted:
Whereas. The efficiency OF the
public schools of the city has been
seriously impaired by the inability
Of the Department Of Education and
tho Board Of Estimate and Appor-
'iorncu- o cooperate tremendously
with each other. and
Nv hcreas. The conflict between
those two bodies has become peren-
nial and constitute an impediment
to the proper development and neccs-
sary expansion of our public school
system. and
Whereas, The highest courts of
Tho state have recently decided that
the Department Of Education of this
city IS branch of the State Depart
ment of education. rather than of the
municipality of New York Clyt;
therefore. be il
Resolved. That the members of
The High School Teachers Associa-
ion of New York City favor the
enactment of such legislation as
will make the Department OF Educa-
tion in this city politically and
financially independent of the Board
of Estimate and Apportionment or
any of its members and subordinate
only to the Department of Educa-
ton of the state of New York
In explaining the resolution G. R
.Icffords. president of the High School
Teachers Association, said the whole
,ubiect of the release OF the Board Of
Education from the control of the Board
of Estimate and Apportionment would
come before d meeting of the Fedora
ton of Teachers Associations. TO be
held at the Washington Irving High
School Tuesday afternoon.
Will Appeal to Legislature
AT that meeting the teachers viii dis
suss plans for making the Board OF
Education an elective body. They ex-
pect to take advantage OF the decision
OF the courts that the city educational
department is a branch of the State De-
partment of Education, rather than of
the municipal government, and ask the
Legislature at Albany for an amend
ment TO the state education law making
the local body elective In this way
The necessity for an amendment TO the
city charter would be avoided, as the
teachers feel that the Mayor would be
certain 70 veto any proposed amend
ment taking the appointment of the
members OF the Board of Education

SHOPMEN 10 AGAIN
 TAKE STRIKE VOTE
TO DECIDE IF PRESIDENT WiL- SONS PROPOSAL WILL BE
 ACCEPTED.

Washington. Railroad shopmen throughout the United States will be- gin voting immediately on whether they will accept the wage proposals made by President Wilson and Dire5- tor General Hines or go out on strike to enforce their deman Is for gen eral advance in pay
 On the outcome of lhe ballotins hinges industrial peace on the gov ernmert-controlled railroads. If the 5000 shopmen decide to accede to President Wilson's decision that there shall be no general wage advances until the government shows what can he done to control the rising cost of living. sufficient time to effect sor.e change in the price levels probably will elGpse before other unions press their demands for more mon-y.
 What action the government will take should the shopmen vote to strike for an immediate increase in wages, which President Wilson has said would have disastrous effect on efforts to bring down prices, mas no' been disclosed, if it has been con sidcrcd.
 Indicating the determination of Di- rector General Hines and the Rall- road Administration to deal fairly with all classes of employees, the di- rector general instructed the Board of Railway Wages to consider promptly ahy demands that might be made and to report recommendations for correcting and inequalities, though general advances for any class will not be made until it has been proved that the present level of prices is permanent In that case, both the president and MT. Hines have promised that railroad workers would receive early readjustment of their wages.
 Tle taking of a strike vote ordinar- ly requires about three weeks. In the present instance. however. 1t ts believed the vote may be completed earlier. as instructions were given by the international officers to the unions to summon meetings if neces' sary and to telegraph the result oi the balloting.

BITTER DEBATE
 IN U. s. SENATE
SENATORS McCuMBER AND FALL HAVE HEATED ARGUMENT
 OVER PEACE TREATY.

Washington. Senate debate on The peace treaty rose to the bitterest point sirce the document was present. ed by President Wilson.
 Facing at distance of a few fee,, Senator Fall, Republican. New Mexi- co, who had just declared that Sena- tor MeCumber, Republican. North Dd- kota, had in his address on ShantunS, defended. on the ground of justice, the award to Japan of goods stolen from China" the North Dakota sena, tor declared the statement was "un- qualitiedly false" and that he had not justified Germany's action.
 This had brought quick retort fror, Senator Fall that Senator McCumbe,' had defended the Shantung provision and had claimed that Japan had the right to take Shantung By this timo both senators had raised their voices to a high pitch and were pounding their desks. Senator McCumber, ro. plying. shouted to Senator Fall that Japan derived the right to ShantunS
 
 but you leave that out of your state ment,' referring to the assertion re gardinG Japan's unqualified right"
 Previously Senator Fall, who was defending this action of the Foreign Relations Committee in adopting an amendment to give German rights Tn Shantung to China instead of Japan. was interrupted by Senator Nelson, Republican, Minnesota, who declared that if the committee had made "mincemeat" of the treaty. the Sen ate would brush the action aside. When Senator Fall said he would not enter into discussion with the Min nesota senator because of the latters age. Senator Nelson responded that the senator could consider him "tho youngest man in the Senate" and as one who is neither in his second childhood in this matter. nor in the Mexican matter"
