CALLS MEETING HERE
Continued TieIUp Consid-
cred Menace to Food
: Situation.

Fears that the strike of the 2o,-
900 longshoremen on the Atlantic
Coast might seriously affect the
food situation determined govern
ment officials to attempt to adjust
the differences.
Strikers and employers last night
were requested. in a telegram sign
ed by Acting Secretary Post. OF the
Department Of Labor, and II. l.. ker-
win. director of conciliation, to at
tend a conference at the Labor De-
partment here Friday morning.
Food shipped by Water.
Labor Department officials pointed
out that large quantities of food
are moving from the South to the
Northern coast point, and New Eng
land products, such as boots, shoes
and clothing. are being shipped
South by water for the spring trade.
Lengthy tying-up of this traffic
would seriously affect business, and
food supplies in particular.
The government took its step fol-
lowing representations by l.. Marvin,
general manager of the American
T. v. O'Connor. president OF the
International Longshoremen's As
ISOLATION.

DR.VAN SCHAICK
Board Member Comes from
California to Testify
Against Thurston.

DIR. Henry b. Learned, who made
a transcontinental trip from Cali
fornia to testify in the school
hearing before the Senate school in
vestigating committee, reiterated
charges of other members of the
board yesterday that Superintendent
Thurston was dilatory and ineffi-
cient.
board member asked Thurston a
simple question the latter would say
he would take it under considera-
ton. and later would come in with
a long Literary effort" and waste of
time.
He charged Thurston also brought
too many minor matters to the at =
tention of the board, and produced
figures from a calendar or docket
which he had evolved, which re-
vealed that 153 of these minor topics
lad been brought in by the superin-
tendent at ten board meetings. Only
forty-seven of these topics were dis
posed of by the board, DR.. Learned
said.
Takes Issue with Thgrston.
Learned took sharp issue with
the testimony given by Thurston in
which the latter claimed to have
delayed action on the Charlotte
Hunter case at the request of the
strued as intimidation of a witness
on the then pending Moens case.
He denied asking Thurston to de-
lay action on the case and criticized
Linn for mot taking it up with assis-
tant superintendent in charge of
colored schools. Bruce.
AS in the case of other board
members. DR.. Learned said he had
come to the conclusion. gradually,
that Thurston was not the man for
superintendent and that a strong
man was needed to build up the
schools
Another illustration of what he
termed dilatoriness on the part of
the superintendent was cited by DIR.
Learned, in an instance where
Thurston had failed to have printed
certain regulations for the high
schools which had been drawn up
at great labor, and their printing
authorized by the board.
Differed on PhraseoIogy.-
~ - Uooiu SOME time
later in the year, the question came
up, said DR.. Learned. and Thurston
admitted the rules had not been
printed because some of the prin-
cipals disagreed as to the phrase
ology.
DR.. Learned said that was the
hrst and only time he had ever seen
George E. Hamilton, at that time
president of the board, irritated.
DR.. Learned denied that Moens,
"the so-called Dutch scientist" had
ever been proven a German spy. He
also denied that there had been any
evidence showing that Moens had
made any improper photographs Of
District school children, although
other improper pictures had been
found in his possession.
DR.. Learned will resume the stand
at 10 o'clock this morning, the COM
mtttee promising to expedite his
testimony so that he may leave
Thursday night for California.
