Report Proves
Hyla1l Has Let
Schools Starve
Ettinger's Figures Show
They Are Getting $35 Less
in Each ST., 900 of Taxes
Than in Mitchell Regime
Mayor Is Forced to Act
Gets 8 Millions as En1er-
gency Fund Until Novem-
ber; Deficit q Millions

In the last year Of the Mitchell ad-
ministration the public schools of this
city received 1903 out Of every $1,000
collected by the city through taxation.
The largest amount paid over to the
schools during the regime of Mayor
Hylan was 1858.
These figures from the official statis-
tics Of the Department of Education
refute the. assertions of Mayor Hylan
and his campaign supporters in their
effort to cover up the shocking condi-
tion into which the public schools
have been permitted to deteriorate dur
ing his administration.
They were part of the report of Will
liam L. Ettinger. Superintendent of
Schools, submitted to the Board of Es-
innate in support of the major items
Of budget estimates asked by the Board
of Education for the year 1921. De-
spite the significance of the figures
submitted the BOARD of Estimate ruth
lessly struck off more than $27,000,000
from the $77,946,o38.77 asked, and
passed the buck to the State Legisla-
ture. This drastic cut was the only
reduction imposed upon any depart
ment by the Board of Estimate, every
other city department receiving an in
crease.
Banner Year Under Mitchell
The statistics show that the last year
of the Mitchell regime was banner
year for the schools, because they re-
ceived the greatest percentage of the
c.ty's tax receipts that had been given
them in a period of seventeen years,
The only time that percentage was ex-
ceeded was in 1902, when the schools
received 3O.S1 per cent of the total tax
collections.
This fact was vividly brought out by
Mr.. Ettinger in the following lam
grage: "ln 1902, out of the total city
budget (less debt service) of $75,487,-
329.87, the schools share was 30.81 per
cent, while in 1920 the schools proper
ton was 25.06 per cent. In other words
out Of every $1,000 of taxation the
schools received 1903 in 1902, as COM
pared with $251 in 1920, or s57 less per
81 900 of taxes"

position of being compelled to raise the

Crowds See Tug Sink Launch;
Is Hurled Into Bay, | Missing

The Pontiac, fifty-foot launch be-
longing to the Morgan Engineering
Company. Of Jersey City. was sunk, one
man is believed to have been drowned
and fourteen others were thrown into
the water when the craft collided with
a New York, New Haven & Hartford
Railroad tug shortly after 5 o'clock yes
terday afternoon. The accident oc-
CURED midway between Bedloe's and
Ellis islands and was witnessed by
thousands of persons along the Battery
sea wall and on craft in the lower har-
Dor.
After brief investigation of the ac-
cident by the police, Captain William
Kelly of the railroad tug, and Thomas
A, Johnston. in charge Of the Pontiac,
were arrested on technical charges OF
manslaughter.
There we're fifteen employees of the
Morgan Engineering Company on the
Pontiac who were being carried from a
Brooklyn shipyard to their homes in
Jersey City. Owing to the number OF
boats which rushed to the rescue of the
men, it was not learned until late last
night that one of the men had not been
accounted for.

chanic, Of ~ Lexington Avenue, re-

ported to the Jersey City police that
her husband had not returned home.
Fine was reported to be among the fif-
teen men who had been on the Pontiac.
The fifteen homeward bound en-
ployees of the engineering company
were standing on the deck Of the Pom
tiac when the collision occurred. Ac-
ccrding to witnesses, the launch was
travelling alongside of large scow
which hid it completely from view of
the railroad tugboat, which was head
ing down the harbor. The tug is said
to have passed directly in front of
the scow as the Pontiac, moving at
greater speed. began to outdistance it.
The tugboat struck the launch squarely
amidships.
The tug stopped and began rescuing
the men from the water. Within few
minutes large number of boats, in
cluding the police boat John F.. Hylan,
reached the scene.
Five of the rescued were brought to
the Battery, where they received first
aid treatment. Itwas first believed that
the other men had been taken to Jer.
sey City. When Mrs. Fine reported
that her husband had not returned
home this number was reduced to nine,
and search was instituted for the
missing man.
