BALLOU PREPARING
SCHOOL REPORT
Comprehensive Statement to
Outline Needs of Dis
trict Institutions.

A comprehensive report outlining in
needs of the public schools. under
preparation by Supt. Frank W. Bal
lou, is nearing completion. The
superintendent stated today that he
hoped to have it finished in time to
submit to the board of education at
it's meeting Wednesday afternoon.
DIR. Ballou indicated that the facts
contained in his report. many of which
he obtained during personal survey
of some of the schools. would startle
the average 1ayman. Much of the in
formation in the report. however, has
been supplied by supervising princi-
pals of the various divisions and other
officials. who have an intimate knowl-
edge of the conditions and needs OF
the schools in their respective jurls-
dictions
VIII BE Made Public.
After school board members have
discussed and approved the superin-
tendent's report, it will be e>made pub
lie in installments. DR.. Ballou is
anxious to acquaint the general pub
lie more thoroughly with existing
conditions in the schools. and for this
reason will give out his report for
publication. He stated that it would
be too lengthy to be published in en-
tirety: and, therefore, he had decided
to make it public in installments.
The report. together with the school
budget. will be discussed at con-
ference between representatives Of
the four-score civic organizations and
members of the school board at con-
ference to be held at the Franklin
School. December g., at s O'Clock. The
report also will be submitted ito men,
bers of Congress by the superintend-
ent for the purpose of ippressing on
them the need of a larger appropri-
alton for the school system.

IND0RSES VIEW OF PERIL
IN CROSSING AT CORNERS
To the Editor of The Star.

To the Editor of The Star.
In today's Star you publish the time
ly letter Of Louisa s. -Weightman, in
which she pronounces the crossing at
street corners as more dangerous than
midway of q square. and my personal
observation and experience confirms her
attitude.
There are six approaches of vehicles
at the corner of a two-way street. and
but two at the center Of q square.
Personally. I have been struck and
injured twice, and many times je0p-
ardized at corner crossings. and I'm con-
sequence. usually. Ianow tcrOss midway
of the square, with far less apprehen-
sion and risk Of bodily harm. e
A regulation requiring pedestrians to
use corner crossings would have to be
coupled with stringent restrictions upon
the autoists and better safeguards for
the so-calied jay-wafker tie, the fellow
who gets hurt) to answer any good
purpose. and in my opinion such a law
would be an unwarranted interference
with the personal liberty of action of US
poor common people who have to cross
the streets on foot. and the courts would
80 determine. RICHARD p. EVANS.

The Turks assert that without re-
vision they cannot accept the second
annex to the treaty OF Sevres signed
by the British, French and Italian am
bassadors in Paris, dividing Anatolia
into French and Italian zones Of :n-
nuence: The main objection is that
only the nationals of the power to
which zone Is allotted are allowed
to take concessions in that region.
The Turkish government refused to
recognize the annex. and a cabinet

The successful treatment of disease
does not depend entirely upon the
skill of any physician, however great.
Too many people want to acquire
health without. making and sacrifice
to obtain it.
Getting well depends upon the earn
est conscientious effort the part
of the patient. Many people take
treatment as a diversion, and are
willing to make no more effort or sac
rifice than they would to go to a
theater.
Health is the most serious object in
life. Not alone is the obligation that
involves each individual personally
but every man, woman and child, is
obligated to the community in which
he lives and to posterity.
