REORGANIZATION
IN SCHOOLS SEEN
Many Changes for Better Fore
cast After Survey Of Sys-
tenn Is Made
EXPANSION TO BE PLANNED

Recommendation for the reorganiza-
ton Of the entire school system in Phila-
delphia are likely to result from the
contemplated school survey. according
to Bruce NJ. Watson, a member of the
committee having the matter in charge.
Mr.. Watson, who IL secretary of the
Public Education and Child Labor Asso-
citation of Pennsylvania. explained today
that school survey is not an attempt
to unearth scandal. Instead, he said, +,
it is an examination into the system
to find out what is good, so it may be
encouraged. and find what is inefficient,
so it may be discontinued.
About $50 cities of this country have
already had these school surveys" said
Mr.. Watson.
"It is just as if large industrial
concerns managers had said, we will
get the best efficiency engineers we can
find and have them go over our plant
thoroughly, examine our buildings, our
machinery and our methods. The plant
needs overhaul;ng. we must do larger
business and we have not the capacity
necessary
I'm Philadelphia the Board of Edu-
cation realizes acutely that it must
do bigger business with the funds al
hand. That is the whole situation
Hence this survey.
''One of the best things about q
school survey is that il shows the
splendid things we have that no one
knows about or appreciates. 1t also
finds out what is needed. so the Board
of Education may have something
definite and authoritative to present
so when it goes to the people for 9
large appropriation the people viii
know what the money is for.
"Not only will the entire system b,
charted out, but there will be printed

making constructive recommendation
for future guidance of the board.
"A study will be made of every schoo
building in the city. and through this
the actual needs can be pointed out in
each locality. general plan for ex
pansion will also bc pointed out.
Recommendation are liable TO b'
made for various reorganlations. from
the Board of Education down. TIL,
work of the survey will last anywher,
from two months to a year. The efrort
will be to Increase the school facili
ties so we can do in Philadelphia tn,

swing to Wood, which is now going
on In Ohio, may be stopped and the
state may be saved to Harding. Even
that may not be enough to prevent
Wood taking Harding's own state
away from him.
Reports in Washington are that
Johnson is likely to beat Wood in
Michigan, but reports in Washington
are colored. Everybody here wants to
see johnson beat Wood, except Wood s
own political supporters. The Hard
ing people favor johnson to beat Wood.
The LowdCn people pin their hopes on
Johnson. and the old guard which wants
uninstructed delegates wants to see
johnson win. Naturally you hear a
great many people say that Johnson
is likely to be the victor. johnson him
self is confident. He did not expect to
win Minnesota and South Dakota and
said so, but he does expect TO win
Michigan.
He seems certain to carry Detroit.
The Wood managers virtually concede
him Detroit. But they are confident
of carving the rest of the state, getting
the delegates at large and the majority
OF the state delegation. The prospects
seem TO favor Wood The swing gen
orally is toward Wood Before the
campaign began Wood was admittedly
the favorite in Michigan.
II Wood loses Michigan and after
ward Nebraska. where Johnson s
chances are admittedly as good az they
are in Michigan. will the national con
vention be deadlocked So as to favor
the nomination of Hoover? Not neces
sarily Wood is showing too much
strength in Ohio to be stopped by losing
TO johnson in Michigan and Nebraska.
Harding Boom Gone to Pieces
Harding's candidacy appears to have
gone to pieces. An amusing indication
of the straits his campaign is in is
afforded by a dinner given by the Ohio
congressman TO Senator Harding last
night. This dinner had a political pur-
pose. II was meant to show how loyal
the delegation in the lower house is to
the senator. 1t was one of the most
embarrassing dinners ever held. Many
of the congressman sought excuses to
be absent. prayed that they might be
taken sick and studied whether their
religious regard for Good Friday would
permit them to be present. They did
not want to take sides on the Wood
Harding issue just now.
A sharp defeat for Wood IN Michi-
gan might check the bandwagon move =
ment to Wood in Ohio. But nothing
snort OF u Duu uCltdI IL lhtlN 10 so.
The Harding boom is going to pieces
daily. 1t is almost certain that Wood
will have some of the Ohio delegates.
and it is not unlikely that he will have
the majority of the presidential pref
erence vote.
II he gets this and wins in Indiana
as now seems likely, defeat in Michi-
gan and Nebraska will be forgotten BY
the time the convention assemblies. II
will be hard to deadlock the convention
against Wood If he wins Monday in
Michigan and follows his victory there
nv victories in Nebraska, Ohio and In =
diana. 1t will still be hard to do so
even il he is defeated in Michigan.
Wood, since his South Dakota victory
and his success in getting delegates in
the nonprimary states, is beginning to
benefit from the idea that he is the
most likely winner. That belief is a
big help to any candidate.

GOVERNOR URGES
Sproul Asserts It's a Shame Not
to Put Overhead System
in Operation
MAYORS ACTION IS AWAITED

Governor Sproul who is intensely in
terested in the transit situation here.
declared today the Frankford elevated
ought to be put in operation as soon as
possible.
''It is shame" he said. ito have
y line like that to Frankford and not
to have any plan for its operation. The
city and the Rapid Transit Co. ought
to be able to work out the problem
In his recent Frankford ''L" report
TO Council. Transit Director Twining
suggested municipal operation of the
Frankford elevated il the company re.
fuses to rent the line from the city.
Asked today il he favored municipal
operation Of the line. Governor Sproul
replied:
Not If there is any other available
way.
The rental proposed by Mr.. Twining
would amount TO 4 per cent of the
city's initial investment in the Frank
ford elevated. Asked his view of the
suggested rental. MIR. Sproul said it
seemed to be fair.
The Governor added that he il back p
ing the Public Service Commission in
its survey of the transit service in Phil.
adelphia. He believes the commission
can work out a solution of the problem
No action on the request by the
Chamber Of Commerce that a committee
OF ten men be appointed to survey the
transit situation is expected until Mayor
Moore returns to his Office on Tuesday
The request was made yesterday by
the public utilities committee of the
Chamber of Commerce. It urges the
Mayor to appoint a committee of ten
men, representative of professional.
business and other interests. and would
require this committee to make a pre-
liminary report with recommendations

FREIGHT EMBARGO IN N. Y.

Due to Harbor Strike

New York. April 3.-(By A. PD-
A general embargo on export freight
through New York. brought about by
the discontinuance of export freight per-
mits. was placed in effect here today by
the various rail lines on account of the
harbOr strike.
At the Office of the traffic control
manager of the railroads, it was said
that it was uncertain when the issuance
of permits would be resumed.
Traffic in New York harbor was still
curtailed today, but the ferry lines. ex-
cept those of the Erie and West Shore
railroads, We're operating on virtually
normal schedules. Railroad officials
claimed that, while many tugs, lighters
and barges were out of service. all
danger of interruption of the food and
coal supplies had been averted.
Union officials reasserted that the
harbor would be tied up before night
