School Board Will
Appeal to Governor
I'm Building Crisis
Directors to Go to ALBANY
Monday With Estimate
Committee to Urge ''Pay.
as-Y O u-C % Exemption

The Board of Education decided at
it's meeting yesterday to go to Albany
Monday with committee Of the Board
Of Estimate and ask Governor Smith
for legislation to exempt schools and
school sites from the "pay as you go''
law. Members of the board believe
that such legislation would reduce the
general tax burden and facilitate the
construction of much-needed school
buildings by raising the money by
long-term bond issues.
The serious building shortage which
the board is facing is due, it was
said, to the high cost Of materials and
delays in undertaking building
projects. Delay by the Board Of Es-
innate was held to be responsible for
the virtual doubling of the cost Of a
contract which the board awarded yes
terday to Peter Cleary, Of Brooklyn,
for the construction Of Public School
81, in Queens. The contract was for
$319,7o0, instead of $16O,OOo which was
the figure when the contract originally
was submitted to the Board Of Esti-
mate year ago.
Mayor Hylan appointed to the Board
of Education yesterday NJ. Samuel
Stern, who was member of the board
for thirteen years prior to 1917. He
is to take the place Of DR.. John p.
Ferguson, who vacated it to succeed
the late Joseph Yeska. Mr. Stern's
term will expire in May, 1924, under
this arrangement, and DR.. Ferguson's
in May, 1927.

Loans foe Strikers Asked


ROME, Sept. 15.-The Confederation
of Labor to-day published q manifesto
asking workmen to subscribe to loan
which is to be applied to IKE supplying
the needs Of striking metal workers
The shares are to be Of 10 and 25 lire
each. The manifesto says that work
mems councils have promised to reim-
burse the subscribers when the present
dispute is ended.
The metal workers. movement was
early taken advantage of by the sup
porters of Soviet Russia in Italv as
the basis of political movement to
force Italian recognition Of the Mos
COW government, according to docu-
ment published to-day by The Tribuna
The document, of which The Tribuna
says it guarantees the authenticity. is
dated Milan, August %, is headed Per
manent Committee of Red Guards
(Soviet Army)," and is addressed to the
"Legion of Red Guards at Tore An
nunziata," near Naples, asking the
legion to communicate with the great
est urgency the Financial conditions
and war materials of that unit" there
being in view "vast movement to inn
pose on the government at Rome the
political and economic recognition CT

Taking the favorable opportunity
afforded by the vast movement of the

Fahey Does Not Think
Reds Cam Seize Eta!y

Italy will not go over to Bolshevism,
in the opinion of John H. Fahey, for
merly president of the United States
Chamber of Commerce, who arrived
yesterday on the Olympic. He based
this belief on an extensive survey Of
the industrial portions Of northern
Italy, which he completed several
weeks ago.
"Of course" said Mr.. Fahey, "it is
entirely possible that the extremist
leaders have gained new strength in
the last two or three weeks, but, on tho
other hand, until thea it was evident
that their leadership was not making
headway. 1t is worth while to remem-
Der that the organized workers in Italy
represent not more than 35 to 81 per
cent of all the workers.
II realize that 1t is a perilous thing
for any one to prophesy under present
circumstances, and it is very easy to
be mistaken. Nevertheless, I hazard
the assertion that the present contro-
versy is not as significant as some Of
the news dispatches would Indicate"

BY Clarence Coombs
Special Cable to The Tribune

Copyright 1920. New York Tribune Inc.
PARIS, Sept. 15.-America's chances
in the James Gordon Bennett air cup
race here September 27 are good.
An official communication from the
contest committee Of the Aero Club Of
America, received here to-day, super
ceding previous announcements, shows
that the Aero Club has received four
entries. They are the United States
Army VPC racer, piloted by Captain
R. W. Schroeder; the Dayton light
RIB monoplane, piloted by Rinehart; S.
E. J. Cox's Texas Wildcat, piloted by
Roland Rohlfs, and Mrs. Cox's Cactus
Kitten, piloted by myself.
Three Of these planes are eligible to
start in the big race: Colonel Thomp-
son, president of the Aero Club of
elimination trials, and will notify the
French Aero Club twenty-four hours
before the race which three American
planes will fly.
The date Of the elimination contests
Is to be set at a meeting here Friday.
The army plane was delayed four
days in transit, and has not yet ar
rived at the flying field. No news has
been received as to the whereabouts
of the Dayton Wright plane or its
pilot.
I observed the Nieuport machine, pi-
loted by Sadil Ecointe, in speed trial
flights yesterday, and clocked his speed
as 297 kilometers an hour. | also OBJ
served the test flights Of the Spad
piloted by Casals, whose speed
clocked as approximately 500 kilos.
The French elimination contests are
to be held over a course of 100 kilome-
ters at Etampes on September rs.

Poles, Attacked
BY Litllplaniarns,
Evacllate Town
Fighting Resumed Between
Forces i'm the Suwalki
Sector; Warsaw Troops
Seize KOvel From Reds

WARSAW, Sept. Is (By The Associ-
ated Press) ).-The Lithuanians and the
Poles are again engaged in hostilities,
it is announced in last nights Polish
official statement. Fighting has been
resumed between the two forces in
the Suwalki sector, near the German
border
The statement also announces that
Kovel, in Volhynia, has been occupied
by the Poles, who took 5000 prisoners,
captured 36 guns and large quantity
of war material, which included loco
motives, airplanes and 400 cars.
The loss of Kovel deprives the Bol-
sheviki of railway communication be-
tween the Pinsk district and the south
ern front. Kovel was a Junction point
for six railroads and three Of these
lines are brought within the Polish
area of control by it's capture.
Lithuanians Made Surprise Attack
The Lithuanian fighting was brought
on through surprise attack on the
Poles, which forced them to withdraw
from seyny. The reports indicate that
the Lithuanians are advancing in the
direction of Augustowo.
"A military decree has been issued
calling up five new classes, which is
estimated to bring into service more
than 100000 men. The classes called
are from 1889 to 1885 inclusive.
The Polish delegations appointed to
conduct peace negotiations with Soviet
Russia left Warsaw on a special train
last night for Danzig, where its mem
5ers RS will. will board s British torpedo >at
where the conference will be held.
Poles Will Not Submit Harsh Terms
M. Dombski, Under Secretary for
Foreign Affairs and head of the dele
cation, said the instructions to the
Polish representatives were the same
as those given the delegates before
their departure for Minsk for the earl
ier conference with the Soviet ennis
saries. He declared that the Polish
government had no intention of taking
any advantage Of the victories gained
over the Russians, who had reached the
outskirts of Warsaw and then were
pushed back, and that the Poles would
not make any effort to force upon the
Soviet government terms which might
be considered unfair.
