place overlooks the Hudson at Fort
Washington avenue and 19Sth street
the burghers OF the heights are lombard
ing the city fathers with forcible Ian
gunge.
Their contention Is that the whole
Washington Heights district. with $780,
900 inhabitants. a city in Itself bigger
than Cleveland, has been denied educa-
tional opportunities and facilities and
that II Is time to put stop to this mat
tention on the part OF the city. AT
meeting called last night at the home
OF Mr. Jones various arguments calling
for high school were put forward, Mr..
James Gall drawing up a memorandum.
These and others noted the fact that
the city has released a fund OF 10000
600 FOR school building construction and
that now Is the time for Washington
Heights 70 get what is coming TO IL.
Another meeting for the same object
was held in the arInorv OF the Twenty
second Engineers at Fort Washington
avenue and l6sth street, Mt which John
T Kelly was chairman and Assembly
man p. Elliott Burston was secretary.
David F. Goddard, chairman OF Local
School Board No %. said
1T is shameful condition that a
section OF New York with a population
as large as ours should not have a high
school For a long time We have been
promised one but nothing has been
done. The official figures show that there
are 900 children from the Heights that
must attend high school downtown. The
president OF the Board Of Education in
forms me that he Is in sympathy with
this movement, but we need concerted
action"
