Bisbee daily review., 1921-07-31

Many stories are told of Cassidy as to his arguments with everyone, the railroad, the delivery wagons and others who might, in any way, hold up the mails. He firmly believed the first object of a postoffice was the immediate delivery of first class mail. And it was often said that Bisbee en- loved the best internal postal service of any community in the southwest.
 Holding an appointment from Will liam Howard Taft, in 1912, Cassidy supported the now chief justice of the supreme court for president. He has always stood by his friends. In poli- tical fights he has asked no quarter and received none. He is a firm be- liever in the "spoils system,' but with the modification that he is certain the government must render efficient service in order to earn the approval of the people. If the smaller officials do not make good, the government fails.
 Has Military Career
 At the expiration of his term as postmaster of Bisbee, Cassidy accept ed the position of head of the acci- dent and adjustment department of the Copper Queen Branch. Phelps Dodge Corporation. He has held that nosition since and leaves it to accept the work with the government. Cas- sidv is justly proud of the record made hy the company he has repre- snnted in the matter of adjustments and accidents during the time he has been with it. During that period but one iudqment has been rendered against his principals and only five eases have been tried out of 10000 accident cases handled.
 Cassidy is an ardent supporter of the military Early in life he began to take interest in the military estab- lshment of the country and joined the Seventh Regiment of the Illinois National Guard. He rose from the ranks of his regiment to captain and during the Spanish-American war was the regimental adjutant.
 During the late war Cassidy was commissioned a captain in the adju- tant generals department and station ed at Camp Cody where ne was aSSlSt- ant camp adjutant for time and was then made morale officer. He was recommended for majority but re- turned to civil life and his work in Bisbee.
 No time has been set for Cassidy's departure from the Warren District nor has it become known when he will take up his duties. He will have his headquarters in Phoenix.

note on modern educational aims,
methods and practical attainment.
The friends of education in New York
have expressed a very hearty salts
faction at the selection of so able a
man. DR.. Graves will succeed DR..
John H. Finley, whose resignation
after his distinguished service in New
York State, presented a, difficult task
in the choice of a successor.
A second prominent educator, DR..
Livingston Farrand, will go to New
York as the president of Cornell Uni
versity, which is partly supported by
the State and generally regarded as a
state institution.

the public schools in 1916. In other
words, Delaware spent S34.69 on each
pupil, while "a other states paid $50
or more per pupil"
The Case Stated Bluntly
These figures are carried along to
support the argument until one is
struck by paragraph which states
the equation bluntly:
"No one knows how many persons
in Delaware pay an income tax to the
State, but some one has estimated
that ten persons pay more than one
half the income tax which goes to
the support of the elementary
schools, and that 115 persons in the
State pay three-fourths of the entire
income tax. If this is anywhere near
the truth, why should men, many of
them paying no income tax at all, OBJ
ject if the State out of it's abundance
should appropriate an additional sum
to help educate their children and
their neighbours children, when the
present appropriation for public
schools amounts to only 42.2 per cent.
of the States income?"
The report, which is from the press
of The Star Publishing Company, is
particularly replete, covering no less
than 23S pages. To give the index
alone would fill nearly three-quarters
of newspaper column.
Mention should be made of sections
devoted to Americanization work and
to vocational education. These provide
compendiums useful not alone to in
structors in Delaware but to those OF
other states because of the advanced
point to which both have been car
ried. Excellent full-page illustrations

SCHOOLS
IN LINE FOR ADVANCE
Report of State Board of Edu-
cation for 1920 Shows
Foundation Laid

The annual report of the State
Board of Education showing the con-
dition of the public schools of Della
ware for the fiscal year ending June
80, 1920, just issued, is of particular
pertinance at present because it shall
have to serve very largely as guide
mark for the new State Board until
the report for 1921 is printed.
There are. two chapters of special
interest. One is entitled ."School
Finances" the other "Why Delaware
Ranks so Low in Education" In some
respects it is better to consider the
latter first, as it represents rather
the defects while the former suggests
the remedies.
The point is accumulated that in
the rating given Delaware by DR..
Leonard P. Ayres, one of the fore
most experts on school statistics in
the Union, average attendance and
average expenditure per school child
form highly important factors. DR..
Ayres found that Delaware ranked
3sth among her sister States in point
of average days. attended by each
child of school age, and 3Oth in the
average number of days the schools
were kept open, based upon figures
covering a period of 80 years up to
April, 1920.
In this connection point is made by
the report just issued that while
"Delaware's index number has been
increasing through the years, the in
crease has been slower than that of
the other states, which have out
stripped the Diamond State. In rank
the State has gone back from 9th
lin 1900) to 3sth lin 1879 until not
one northern state except West Vir-

ginia, was lower in rank than Della
ware"
1t is added, however, that "the in
crease in the States index in the last
two years 1920 and 1921 warrants
the prediction that Delaware will not
rank much below the middle when the
figures for 1920 for the other states
come in, certainly not below the
3Oth."
State, in Reality, Rich
As to school finances it is remarked
that eff a state is too poor to extend
sufficient state aid to local districts,
the children must necessarily suffer"
Here enters a depression as to the
wealth, or resources, of Delaware.
Based on the census for 1920, the
report points out that there are $685.
003 persons in the State; that allow
ing " persons to family, there
are 1886 families in the common
wealth. Yet for the year 1920, 49,
$50 automobile licenses were issued,
which means that every third family
in the State owns an automobile.
eff the average cost of these cars
is placed at $1,000 each, the people of
Delaware have invested in automo-
biles $1S,35O,OOO," the report con-
cludes.
Again: Delaware's expenditures for
roads and it's assessed valuation of
over S2OO,O00,OOO "would indicate
that the State is far from being a
poverty-stricken commonwealth" But
the fact that the state franks first in
wealth on a basis of the amount Of
income and profits tax paid by it's
citizens to the Federal Government
for the past three or four years." fur
Their is cited as self-evident proof of
| Delaware's dereliction with regard to
it support of it's common schools,
Says the report:
GIN spite of the fact that Delaware
stood first in this rating Federal in

second as to the amount paid per
