HIRSHFYELD DEFENDS
HYLAN AND SCHOOLS
Says IL or Is Buildings Will
Be Opened in Fall.

David Hirshfield, official defender cf
the Hylan administration, tried yes
terday to defend 1t against the charges
of failure to provide proper school
facilities. Without any details. he de-
clared that seventeen and possibly
eighteen schools would be opened in the
fall. He repeated the old assertion hat
the Public Education Association, which
was instrumental in making the recent
survey of the schools, was dominated
by the Rockefeller influence.
or course. said Mr.. Hirshfield New
York has old schools, but they can
not be discontinued until new ones are
built. Because of the war, new con-
struction had to be suspended. The
Hylan administration began to build
schools as soon as it was possible. He
charged that the critics of the school
administration had waited until the
eve of Mayoralty election to launch
their attacks.

New York county leaders are prac-

same is true of the other counties, with
the exception of Kings, where Jacob A..
Livingston is welded to the idea that
the candidate for Mayor must be a
Brooklyn man. He realizes that his
organization would have to support the
recommendations of an unofficial COR

for Mayor be from borough other

phedite Greek, i'm extreme north
cast, part of HaakOn county and
urging the change of location to
the mouth of Cherry Creek.
Thirty-three delegates present,
from Mcintosh on the north to
Philip on the south.
Delegation unanimous in object
ing to Morphedite bridge site and
in their approval Of the Cherry
Greek bridge site.
Cherry Greek site on the State
High@ay across the state. from
Martin on the south to Mcintosh
on the north, connects county seat
towns as required by the law. Is
the shortest and most chearly CON
structed. Roads already construc-
ted from Washabaugh county to
beyond Milesville. White river
bridge built, bridge on this route
across the Grand river built, and
bridge across the Moreau River
authorized.
To reach the Morphcditc site it
would require the construction Of
26 miles of road largely through
rough country which must lie paid
by Haakon county. Same can be
said regarding roads to the bridge
on the north side of the river.
Bridge at Cherry Creek would
accommodate ninety per cent of
the north and south travel better
than the bridge at Morphedite
Creek. Also approved by the In
dians, which matter should be Civ
en- due consideration as $4,000 Of
Indian funds are to be used in the
construction Of the bridge.
The road and qridge recommen-
ded by the delegates, in addition
to connecting county seat towns
would furnish a direct route con-
Meeting all east and west high
ways and trails of the state.
The commissioners Of HaaEon
county have approved the exton-
sion of the present highway, end
ing near MiIesville, to Cherry
Creek, and also the building Of a
highway from Cherry Creek con
Meeting the road leading north
from Midland, both roads to be
built this year.

PROTEST LOCATION OF
CHEYENE RIVER BRIDGE
Delegations From West River Sec
ton Meet Highway Commits
sion At Pierre

Delegations from several of the
west river counties met at Pierre
on Monday and Tuesday with the
state highway commission regard
mig the location of the location
of the bridge across the Cheyenne
river north of here. This bridge
has had the attention of the state
and fedora authorities for the
past two years, and lately it was
found that site selected was near
Carlin at the mouth of Morphi-
dite creek, in the extreme north
east corner of this county.
About thirty-three representa-
tive men from this and points
north of here as far as Mcintosh
were present and presented their
claims, which they report were Of
no avail, in spite Of the fact that
the bridge could hardly be located
at a more inconvenient point had
the commission went about it with
that in view.
It is far out Of the route select
ed for the porth and south route
which has already been designated
and built and will mean Thousands
of dollars additional expense to
the counties north and south of
the river if they are compelled to
connect with it.

local delegation which was handed
us upon their return from Pierre

Crowding
Spartanburg Jail

Spartanburg, Aug. 26.-Never in
the history of this section have there
been so many hoboes roaming over
tne country. They are found lying
out in the bushes and woods near
Hayne junction in droves They are
sometimes found sleeping in the
shade of trees actually piled up, hav-
ing their heads on each other. The
county chaingang is full and most of
hem are white men.
The magistrates haVe shown a
great deal of leniency in dealing with
hem. Six and eight a day are tried,
the largest number on one day Being
ID. If there seems to be anything
to man he is given a chance. The
Salvation Army has been invaluable
in handling deserving cases. The men
seem to be roaming the country aim
lessly.
One day recently one of the rail-
road policemen called to a man whom
he saw on a freight train at Hayre
to come down. To his surprise eight
men jumped off the train. He could
take only four of them, however. The
other four made their escape. Out of
more than 100 sent up by M. n.
Evans, one of the railroad policemen,
only six were from South Carolina,
and three of them. Mr.. Evans says,
he believes were not telling the truth.
They did not talk like Carolinians.

LLOYD GEORGE 4
SENDS REPLY

London, Aug. 26 (By the Associat-
ed ress).-David Lloyd George, the
British prime minister, today sent a
prompt rejoinder to the letter. of
Eamonn de Valera, president of the
Irish republic, which rejected, the
British governments terms for peace
in Ireland.
The premier's note constituted a
firm reiteration of the government s
former standpoint, that Ireland
could not be permitted to withdraw
from the empire. He said he thought
he had made it clear in conversa-
tions and previous communications
that the government "can discuss no
settlement which involves refusal
on the part of Ireland to accept a
free, equal and loyal partnership in
the British commonwealth, under one
sovereign" KS,
Mr.. Lloyd George, in. concluding
his note, still held open the door for
Valera and his colleagues if they are
prepared to examine how far the
governments considerations "can be
reconciled with the aspirations you
represent" He declared, however,
IiidC lne government COulH 'nOt pro-
long mere exchange of notes" ~.
In his. communication Mr.. Lloyd
George preserved, the same ff:endly
tone that characterized his former
letters to Mr.. Dei,Valera. Today he
buttressed the governments stand
point by quotations from Irish patri-
OTIS and Abraham Lincoln. He warn
ed Mr.. De Valera that a. needless pro-
longation of the negotiations would
serve to play into the hands of the
extremists, who he declared, were
only anxious to wreck, the negotia-l
tions and terminate the truce.
A hopeful; aspect of the situation
as it is, viewed in London political
circles is. that, neither Mr.. De Valera.
in his latest tornmunication,. a,or Mr..
Lloyd GsoSEes has yet. cfosedsthe door
on the negotiations. - 80. E
