On Lusk School Bills
Societies Charge Senator With
Vicious Methods in Jamming
Measure Through

Representatives Of several civic, edu-
cational and labor organizations met
yesterday at the Civic Club and drafted
an appeal to Governor Miller for the
veto Of the Lusk bills which affect
schools and school teachers. The ex-
ecutive has set next Tuesday for q pub
lie hearing on the disputed measures.
After the meeting q statement WAS
issued which declared that the bills
struck at the constitutional liberties Of
the people Of the state in general and
at the right Of free and democratic
educational system in, particular. The
same bills were vetoed last year by
Governor Smith.
The statement further charges Sena-
tor Lusk with "vicious and disgraceful
methods" in introducing the bills too
late for opposition to be effective and
for jamming them through the Assem-
bly, on the last night of the session,
after passing around the word that
the Governor had ordered their adop-
tion."
The statement Is signed by Harry F.
Ward, chairman, Of the American Civil
Liberties Union; Howard Nudd, Of the
Public Education Association; Ernest
Leo, Of the Civic Club; Algernon Lee,

sion appointed to investigate tho Hylan
| administration.
Representatives Of the Comptroller
have examined coal bins in almost
every school in Manhattan and Brook
lyns and are said to have discovered a
high percentage Of dust and slate In
the coal. Janitors have been ques-
toned, and dashlight pictures were
taken of the coal remaining in the
bins until the Board Of Education or
dered that no more pictures be taken,
because Of the risk of setting FIRE to-
the buildings.
Samples Of the coal examined at the
Comptroller's Office were said to con-
tain large amount Of slate. Some of
the broken coal, in the pictures, shows
huge piles of dust taken from the coal
which, it is said, the janitors had to
screen out before they could burn it.
1t is understood that a request was
made Of the Board Of Education to pro-
duce the reports Of the ;anitors on the
ccal and that the Investigators were
told that these reports could not be
found.

BY the Board of Education for the
