Wanted: A classroom for forty-five

A sign with this need printed on 1t

principal of the division and the
principal OF the school solve the prob
lem of what is to be done with the
class of this size-sixth grade chill
dren-which will need a place to
study on and after that date.
This school furnishes one of the
most serious cases of overcrowding
in the city. 1t is located in a section
which is growing fast. and making
circles all around the present build
ing which. except for four portables.
has not grown a bit in size since 1t
was built. about seventeen years ago.
! Every school Crowded.
The school directors of the sixth
division have combed every school
in the division to find a place for
these boys and girls. but they have
failed. There will not be a vacant
seat on February /. 1t was thought
possible that the scholars might go
20 the Pierce. Hayes and Madison
schools. some distance out of the ter
ritory in which the children live. but
every sixth grade In these schools
will be jammed to the doors on Feb
ruary /.
This is a fragrant example OF the
failure somewhere to make proper
provision for the children. Although
the wheatley Building now has four
portables scattered over about three
quarters of the block in which the
main building is located these are full.
The result of this demand for seats
in this school probably will be to
force children of the third grade. now
going a full session as required by
law. to resume their education in half
day bites. They had been going a
half day until last November. when
the addition of two portables made
it possible to give them the whole
days session. which now must be
taken away from them.
There are children in this school up
as high as the fifth grade who have
never had a full days session in
school until this year. And now with
the overcrowded conditions this Is
likely to be taken away from them,
unless. of course, there is a quick ap-
preparation of money with which to
put up an eight-room addition. which
Is badly needed.
Even now the first grade pupils are
required to share their classroom

Entente Rejoinder to Hollands
Refusal of Extradition Is I'm

PARIS February (Havas).-The
entente rejoinder to the refusal of
Holland to accede to the allied demand
for the extradition of former En-
peror william is imminent, according
to the Petit Parisien.
The newspaper says that. while the
note will be generally conclliating to-
ward Germany. it will consider. in
case of new refusal by Holland,
measures going as far as the break
ing of diplomatic relations or naval
blockade of Dutch ports.
AMSTERDAM. February (by the
Associated Press).-According to the
Handelsblad it is quite probable that
Holland would consent to the eXtradi-
ton of German war criminals who
are within her borders if extradition
were asked on the grounds that they
actually are vicious or criminal.
In the event that the request were
based on some act of the ordinary
course of war or reprisal ordered by
superiors. the case would be differ
ent. the newspaper asserts.
Unless the allied list includes for
mer Crown Prince William the news

far to ascertain which. if any of the
desired persons, are now in Holland.
The Handelsblad says further that

William had been demanded on actual
criminal grounds instead of political

FIRST u. S. SHIP IN YEARS
COMES FROM GERMANY
Manchuria, Sailing From Hamburg
January 8 With 80 Passengers,
Docks at New York.

NEW YORK. February 3.-The first
passenger ship to sail from a German
port to the United States since July.
1914, and the first American passenger
ship in many years to undertake a
similar voyage, reached here yester-
day. when the American line steam
ship Manchuria docked. She sailed from
Hamburg January 9. calling at South
ampton, and brought thirty-nine pas
sengers, all from the English port.
Capt. Adrian Feeder. master Of the
Manchuria. said he could have filled his
ship to overfowing at Hamburg with
passengers for America had passport
regulations and restrictions as to
travel permitted. Applications Were
nume rous. and Germans voiced regrets
that hey could not come to this coun-
try.
1t required eight days of twenty four
hours each. working three eight t-hour
shifts. to discharge at Hamburg the
5000 tons OF cargo the Manchuria took
with her to Germany, officers of the
ship said. This work could have been
done before the war in about twenty
four hours, and the delay was said to
he due to the listless manner in which
the German dock workers labored. The
officers said they were low Of spirits,
apparently suffering from malnvtri-
tion and displayed little ambition.
Food was said to be scarce, but those
with money have no trouble in getting
all they want, ships officers declared.
A party Of five from the Manchuria
dined at a prominent Hamburg hotel
and paid for their meal 490 marks. On
the other hand, a story was told of one
of the German dockworkers begging
from the steward of the ship a piece
of frozen beef which he eagerly de-
voured raw
The Manchuria brought with her
from Germany 200 bags of mail and a
quantity of cargo, including phos-
pilates.
