DR. Van Schaick stated that he had

"If he was connected with IL he
should be fired" said Van Schaick.
He testified that the Parents

Admits Their Power.
Suppose this committee should
recommend that Superintendent
Thurston should be returned to his
office, what would the Board OF EdI
cation do?" asked Senator Harrison.
1T would give serious and pray"P-
ful consideration to the. recommcn.
dation." answered Van Schaick
suppose il should recommend that
the Board Of Education resign"
The board president gave tho same
answer He stated that Congress in
directly had absolute power over the
schools, because IL could virtually
legislate the Board OF Education out
of office and change the whole system.
Would not new regime help
things here?" asked Senator Harri-
son.
That all depends upon the circum-
stances" was the reply.
Demonstration Framed Up.
"If il were shown that a majority
OF citizens favored Thurston. would
that have any influence on the boards
future action"
DR.. Van Schaick replied that It
would.
with reference to the demonstra-
ton of 1,4o0 teachers in favor OF
superintendent Thurston he replied
in effect that the demonstration was
more or less manufactured, thai
committee was at work organizing
the whole city. that each principal
teleptoned to all his subordinates,
and that the latter all came across
Van Schaick was asked whether
teachers were not the best judges of
the qualifications OF a superintendent
He replied that their view was one
sided. thut they knew only one an5!e

Senator Harrison introduced some
vaudeville into the proceedings by
reading from certain dance programs

dances in Dunbar High School Mem

insistent in informing the committee
that the dances were perfectly proper.
Senator Walsh asked DIR. Van
Schaick a number of questions design
ed to show his first hand knowledge
of the schools. He asked him the
cost per capita OF educating element
airy and high school students. the per-
centage OF change in the personnel OF
the teaching force, etc.
on most OF the questions Van
Schaick frankly admitted that he
did not have the figures in his head"
but could get them easily.
