USED UNDUE INFLUENCE

Denunciation of the most unspar-
ing sort of DR.. John Van Schaick,
president of the board of education.
characterized the speech of Senator
Pat Harrison, OF Mississippi, at a
special session of the Senate last
night. in which Senator Sherman,
chairman of a special committee
presented report on District
schools. Harrison did not hesitate
to denounce Van Schaick as being
ambitious without scruple, vain,
autocratic, a deliberate eorrupter of
the school system, and in every re-
spect the antithesis of what "a
minister and a man of God" should
be.
Teachers Crowd Gallery.
Every seat in the gallery was
crowded with teachers when Har-
rison began his speech. So fire.
Quently did expressions of approval
occur that the president threatened
to clear the galleries.
The public be damned" shouted
Harrison. That was what Van
Schaick told Capt. James F. Oyster
when urged to have a little more
consideration for the people of
Washington, and il pretty well
summed up his attitude from the
time he assumed office. If by any
mischance he became one of the

Million Given as Total.
Additional contributions to the
national Wood fund, Col. Proctor
stated, were somewhat less than
his total of $4,000. An estimate
of approximately 81 1000, 900 was
used by committee members dur
ing the hearing when referring to
the aggregate of the national
fund. Col. Proctor declared the
national contributions were sepa-
rate and distinct from the money
raised by the Wood managers in
the State, county and city organ
izations, and he knew of no way
of aseertaining the total for the
nation.
State Expenses Heavy.
wood managers in the Ohio and
Michigan primary fights testified
subsequently to large expenditures,
but even their statements were not
complete. The Ohio man told of
spending SIS, $50 in that State. with
bills aggregating $4,000 to $4,000
remaining unpaid. In addition to
that. s35,ooo, he said, the Chicago
headquarters paid the newspaper
advertising account for Ohio, cost
ing from S35,O0o to $4,000. Even
that expenditure of approximately
for the State, as the witness admit
ted the $4,000 disbursed by the
State committee was not used in any
counties able to pay their own bills.
II did not include the three biggest
counties in the State. where the
great portion Of the vote was cast
Cuyahoga (Cleveland), Hamilton
(Cincinnati), and Lucas CToledo)-
where expenditures were heaviest.
The Michigan campaign cost S54,-
047.34 exclusive of publicity and cam
paign literature, which Col. Proctor
had stated represented IS to 20 per
cent of campaign costs. OF S54,311.72
