HYLAN URGES WAR
ON SUPT. ETTINGER
Sends Letter to Prall Telling
Him Also to Fight City
Club Iniquity.

Reverting yesterday to two of his
favorite topics, the iniqulty Of the City
Club and the terrible Gary school sys-
TEN, Mayor Hylan aimed a new attack
at William L. Etunger Superintendent
or Schools in letter to Aiming s.
Prall, president OF the Board of Educa-
ton.
II note" the letter begins, that the
City Club Is beginning a campaign in
favor Of Supt. Ettinger and against the
Board of Education, which is conduct
ing an investigation into the finances of
the educational department Of the city,
TO which Supt. Ettinger objects.
The City Club is controlled by those
In sympathy with Wall Street and public
utility interests, and has from time to
time preferred charges against public
ofiicials to have them removed from pub
lilo Office. Superintendent Ettinger is q
subordinate Fl the Board OF Education,
but he wants to run the Board of Educa-
ton and objects to the Investigation
This Is the same Ettinger who refused
to permit the Commissioner of Accounts
to investigate the finances of the educa-
tional system.
you should under no circumstances
allow the City Club or any of it's MEM
bers to interfere with your investigation
Of the Board of Education or the build
ing of new schools to properly house and
educate our children. The City Club
favors the Gary system. which fits the
child for the mill and factory only. This
administration is opposed to the Gary
system and wants the children OF those
In moderate circumstances to have the
same opportunities as those who can
AFFORD 70 send their children to college,"
The Mayor also wrote:
THE City Club in taking up Ettinger's
case will probably attempt to have you
removed. That is the method so-called
high class reform organizations resort
to to brighten public officials All
methods of propaganda will be resorted
to to stop your investigation of the
finances OF the Educational Department.
Your stand for new school houses to
properly house the school children of the
Icity-a sound fundamental education in
stead of fads and fancies to give some
body a good job at high salary--a
proper expenditure of the peoples money
for educational purposes. and a better
moral condition in our schools is all
absolutely sound and impregnable.
'Ettinger bitterly opposed the investi-
cation of the expenditure Of $4,000. 900
appropriated for educational purposes.
He now seeks to have the City Club be-
hind him to help him thwart your in
vestigation of the finances of the Edu-
cational Department and other conditions
in our school system. The BoSrd OF
Education should take some action so
that Ettinger will give his time to
educating the children and lettering
conditions in our public schools, instead
of playing educational politics and MAX
ing trouble for those who want school
houses erected and the children given a
proper education"
