SCHOOL RULING
Opinion from the State School
Head in New School
WrangIe Here.

Acting upon the advice of the city
attorney that the resolutions passed
by the Board of School Estimate
were not properly drawn up. Mayor
William C. Wilson called special
meeting of the school estimate board
at which time their recent action
was revoked by vote of three to
two. the school board members vot-
ing against such revocation. The
school board then declared the ac-
ton of the school estimate board in
revoking the resolutions to be ille-
gal as the meeting was illegally held.
it being necessary for the mayor to
receive a request from the school
for meeting, before he can call such
a session. The city attorney has not
shown as yet that the meeting at
which the resolutions were revoked
was legal, whereas the school board
has pointed out decision in such a
case made by the commissioner OF
education in 1914.
Superintendent Samuel e. Shull
has received from Commissioner En-
right the following letter with refer
ence to the city's financing the pro-
posed school building work:
According to an opinion rendered
John Enright, the two resolutions
adopted by the school board on June
2 and the Board Of School Estimate
at a later date setting forth the
amounts necessary for school con-
struction conform in every way with
the provisions of the law.
Owing to the claim made by CITY
Attorney Leo Goldberger that these
two resolutions were not properly
drawn up and therefore should be
revoked by the Board of School Es-
innate, a copy of the resolutions was
sent to Commissioner Enright by
the school board with the request
that he give his opinion as to their
legality.
His opinion, dated July s, follows:
II have examined carefully the res
olution adopted by the Board of Edu-
cation of the City of Perth Amboy'
at a regular meeting held on June
2, 1921, setting forth the amounts
thought to be necessary for school
building construction in the City OF
Perth Amboy. and in my opinion
such resolutions conform in every
way to the provisions of law upon
that subject. namely, Chapter ll0'
p. L.. 1917"
Mr.. Samuel Il. Snull, 0upeiiHten-
dent of Schools, Perth Amboy, N. j.
my Dear Mr.. Shull: Miss Ander-
son has outlined to me your inquiry
of the second inst. regarding the
financing OF two separate school con-
struction propositions in the city OF
Perth Amboy.
"If the board of school estimate
has acted favorably upon both these
propositions and certifies to the
common council the amount fixed
and determined by such board OF
estimate for each proposition, 1t Is
my opinion that the common coun-
Gil in order to raise the money by
issuing bonds must consider both
propositions separately. If. for in
stance, the amount certified by the
board of estimate for one propo-
sition does not exceed three per cent.
of the taxable valuations of the dis
tricts, the common council is bound
to raise the amount certified for that
one proposition even though the
total for both propositions exceeds
the statutory limitation of three per
cent.
Every truly yours,
JOHN ENRIGHT,
commissioner of Education"

SOUTH AMBOY, July 9.-Hun-

swarm the beach nightly near the
South Amboy Terra Gotta Works,
known as the Minnie Ditch. After
long, hot, stuffy hours in the homes.
and at their working places the
beach seems to be a magnet. There
was considerable talk some time ago
about the Chamber of Commerce
taking steps to improve the beach
conditions all along the river front.
but to date nothing has been done.
With the erection of the Leonard
pavilion at the extreme northern
end of the shore, it seems likely that
it will spur someone to action and
help out the conditions that prevail
at this time.
The shore at this point is about
three quarters of a mile long, and
an ample beach room prevails.
