New Registration.
PROMISES ARE NOT KEPT

The Public Education Association Is
sued yesterday a statement through its
director. Howard w. Nudd. which seeks
to refute some OF Mayor Hylan's latest
assertions as to the city schools. lt
said:
",rhe Mayor Is evidently going on the
theory that IL you make the same mis-
statement In general terms frequently
enough you will lead enough minimizing
persons TO believe you to accomplish
your purpose. We submit herewith
summary Of our criticisms OF Mr.. n.y.
ian's record, based upon the oincial ng-
ures of the Department OF Education.
Which Is of more Importance to citizens
TO listen TO the endless babble about the
interests or to scrutinize this record ana
consider it's effect upon the welfare OF
the children? Was Barnum right! Does
the public like to be hoodwinked or Is
it looking the facts squarely i'll the 1ace
and insisting upon remedy!
.sThe Mayor claimed on Thursday
night that $4,000 children had been
taken or part time by the opening OF
new schools this fall. A few days be-
fore this figure was $4,000. What 1t will
be a week from now nobody knows. AS
a matter Of fact, despite the new seat

itself in two ways. either through pafY

through increasing the number OF puphs

..In the matter OF new sittinss to meet
this appalling congestion the record OF

Predecessor. During the Mitchell i'd
sninistration 1900 new eittings were

about one-sixteenth. of the amount
needed. was appropriated.
The cut OF $4,000. 600 in the educa-
uonai budget for the current year was
extremely harmful. For months the
schools did not know where they were
going. Despite frantic efforts TO make
good on the muddle before election that
deficit has not even yet been fully can
celled. as some $s,o0o,ooo must be raised
by revenue bonds to carry the schools to
January next.
Not the least among the reprehensi-
hle acts OF the Hylan administration
was the effort made two years ago to
enforce bylaws that would transfer the
educational functions OF the school sys-
tenn from the expert city superintendent
to the lay president of the Hoard OF
Education That not only engendered
grave unrest In the schools but threat
ened 10 throw the schools into the worst
sort OF politics by placing the operation
OF the merit system, built up during a
quarter OF a century. into the hands of
politicians. Fortunately this effort was
frustrated by the State Commissioner OF
Education.
"Such is the Hylan record. No one
could reasonably hold the Mayor re-
sponsible for conditions which existed
when he entered office. and no one has
had disposition to do So But Mr..
Hylan can be held responsible for per-

the close of the Mitchell administration.
much political capital Is being made
of the fact that new school buildings
are contemplated or arc under contract
which will eventually provide from
5000 to $1,000 nee sittings. But II is
obvious that by the time these struc-
lures are contemplated the increase In
registration will more than absorb these
additional accommodations Mr.. Hylan'
glowing promises OF q scat for every
child would thus seem to have vanished
into thin air.
Menace to Safety.
"Most OF the school buildings have
been in a disgraccful state of unrepalr
throughout the IIylan administration.
The old school buildings are still. in
many instances, unsafe and insanitary.
There are fire hazards that are dis

In 496 OF the sos school buildings of the
city have been cited by the fire authori-

has estimated that II would cost $4,000

repeated requests for funds, in which
he expressed in unmistakable terms his
