NO RELIEF IS SEEN:
FOR HIGH SCHOOLS
Incoming Pupils in September
Will Equal Those Who
Leave in June.

approximately 1900 students will
be graduated from the Washington
high schools at the June commence
ments, statistics compiled today by
school authorities show. An equal
number. it is expected, will be pro-
NOTED from the eighth grade to the
senior institutions.
Tho graduating c,aSs at Central
High School will number more than
400. the largest in the history OF the
institution. according to school Off
cals. business High School viii
graduate more than 200, while the.
ether institutions graduating classes
will be smaller.
These figures. it is pointed out by
school authorities, indicate that no
relief from the congestion in the high
schools at the beginning of the new
year in September is in prospect.
Proposed Junior High SchOeis.
The only relief from the serious cons
geStion in the high schools that school
ofhclalS can fOreSce is the erection
OF the two junior high schools pro-
FIded for in the less than 81 900, 900
emergency building program now be-
fore Congress. But even if Congress
dppropriateS for these buildings it is
believed they will not be ready for
occupancy for year and possibly
longer. 1t is proposed to locate one OF
these junior high schools. which will
contain twelve elementary classrooms
and an equal number of high school
classrooms. north of Taylor street and
east of 14th street, and the other in
the vicinity Of the Gage, Emery and
lexington schools.
School authorities have planned no
building project for the high schools
in the belief that the junior high
schools will relieve somewhat the
congested conditions in the senior. in
stitutions by drawing from them all
their first year students. The pro-
posed junior high school in Ecking-
ton. in their opinion, will relieve
business and Tech high schools, while

DEFENDS SESSIONS
OF SCHOOL BOARD
D. A. Edwards, Member, Says
No Star Chamber Proceed
ings Are Held.

D. A. Edwards. member of the boa rd
of education, replying to a criticism
Of alleged star chamber sessions of the
board. told members of Lincoln Park
Citizens Association at a meeting in
the Bryan School last night. that no
star chamber sessions are held by the
board
There is no successful institution
in which the governing board does not
have conferences behind closed
DOORS" Mr.. Edwards stated. "and the
same is true of the school board. 1t
is not proper that all questions
brought before the board should be
discussed in public"
Mr.. Edwards said it frequently hap
pens that members of the board desire
information about individuals, and
certainly it would not be proper to
have such information given in pub
lie, especially if it reflected disc redit
upon the Individual
Acts Taken in Public.
The law requires that all acts Of the
board shall be taken in public. he
said, and the board adheres to the
law. 1t is the intent of the board to
act in the best interests of the people.
Mr.. Edwards said the board is try
ing to get money to be used in bet
tering the housing conditions for the
children. The buildings, he said. should
be kept clean and absolutely sanitary
Ample playground facilities for the
children is another move in which the
board is Interested the speaker said
President George II. Judd reported
the result of a conference between
the District Commissioners and rep
resentatives of several citizens as
sociations in the matter of improv-
ing the railroad Viaducts in the city.
1t was originally intended that the
walls should be faced with enameled
bricks, he said. and that the viaducts
should be properly lighted. Neither
had been done.
On motion of G. S. Jameson the as
sociation voted to ask the Commits
sioners isnm ediately to have the work
done in order to make the Viaducts
safe and sanitary.
Better Lighting Asked.
Frederick Muller and w. a. Greer
renewed the question of better light
ing of Massachusetts avenue cast of
Stanton park, and tn" associ:tfnu
voted to request the Comm toner's
to increase the number of LAMBS on
that thor0ughfarc and equip them
with improved burners. 1t was stated
that the Commissioners had reported
there was no appropriation for the
installation of electric lights there.
g. S. Jameson moved that IL protest
be sent to the chief Of police against
persons cpngrcsating and lettering In
front of places of business and along
the public highways. He said he had
special reference to crowds in front
Of near beer and pool rooms on IA
street northeast The association
voted to ask Congress to enact Iesis-
lation making it unlawful to un-
reasonably congregate and loiter on

They look like Zeppelins, but have
more pOtentialities for dfsease and
death. They should be searched for
and wiped out as part of the swat
the-hy campaign, officials of the bu-
reau Of entomology warn. The pic
turc shows the eggs highly magnified.
While swatting the fly do not forget
to swat the fly eggs, DR.. l.. o. Howard
chief of the bureau of entomology,
warned today. The eggs of the house
ly look something like miniature Zeppe-
Inns and have even more potentalities
for disease and death.
BY hunting out fly eggs. which occur
in clusters, and Graduating th"m at the
same time one is killing flies, literally
millions Of inCipient flies are fOreStalled.
According to DR.. Howard. the climate
of the District of Columbia allows
abundance Of time for the development
of ten to twelve generations every sum-
meT.'
Will Lay in Many Places.
While the true house fly-musca do.
neutrality-suspicious. manure for it's breeding
place. it will lay its eggs on great
variety Of decaying Vegetable and ami
NAL materials. DIR. Howard said today.
1t often happens that the fly is very
abundant in localities where little or no
hors" manure is found, and in such cases
it breeds in other manure or in Stops or
fermenting vegetable material, such as
spent hops, moist bran. ensilage or rot
ting potatoes. Accommodations of organic
material on the. dumping grounds of
towns and cities often produce flies in
great numbers.
120 Eggs Laid at Time.
The number of eggs laid by an indi-
vidual fly at one time undoubtedly
is large. probably averaging about
80, according to DR.. Howard. AS a
and possibly four such batches the
enormous numbers in which the in
sects occur are thus plainly accounted
for.
The eggs usually hatch in less than
twentyfour hours. Under the most
favora bic conditions of temperature
and moisture, the egg state may last
hardly more than eight hours The
maggots which issue from the eggs
are. i ers-'s Small and transparent. AS
he IafVae eattain full size they gradu-
ally assume creamy white color.
This is good time, too. to nip in
the bud" the future millions.
The next stage in the progress or
the deadly fly is the pupae stage. The
pupae. or "sleepers," are more or less
barrel shaped and dark brown in
color. In midsummer this stage lasts
from three to ten days, four or five
days being the usual duration.
Works Way Upward.
The adult fly, upon emerging from the
puparium, works it's way upward
through the soil or manure, into which
it had buried in the larval state. and
upon reaching the air it craWls about
while it's wings expand and the body
hardenS.
This is fine time to swat the fly, if it
has been missed at any of the previous
stages.
| Midsummer is the heyday of the fly,
so it is well that it be swatted on the
head in the spring.
THE presence Of flies is an ndication
of uncleanliness. insanitary conditions
and improper disposal of substances in
which they breed" says DR.. Howard.
"They are not only annoying, they are
actually dangerous to health, because
they may carry disease germs to ex-
posed food

HARVEY'S SPEECH
CHECKS OUTBURST
Silesian Offair Forgotten by
1rreconcilables" When
Report Arrives.

Ambassador George Harvey's
speech in London last night reached
the Senate today at exactly the
right moment to prevent an out
burst from the "irreconcilable"
ranks over the administrations de-
cision to have an American repre-,
sentative sit on the Silesian row for
observation purposes.
While the Democrats gnashed
their teeth with rage and denounced
Col. Harvey's utterances in the most
vehement language, the "irrecon-
cilables" beamed with pleasure and
forgot their dissatisfaction over the
Silesian affair.
Senator Hitchcock, ranking
Democratic member of the Foreign
Relations Committee, who o>ied the
fight for ratification of the ver-
sailles treaty issued a statement de-
nouncing Col. Harvey's address.
Col. Harvey's address was filled
with improprieties," he said. IF the
British Ambassador in the United
States should thus sneer at a for
mer British prime minister in a
speech at Washington the case
would be parallel"
Senator Pat Harrison, of Missis-
sippi, one of the Cox managers in
the last presidential campaign, was
even more vehement in his arraign-
ment of Col. Harvey.
'Harvey's utterances justified all
that has been said about the mar
row. unprovincial and partisanship
Of the Harvey viewpoint" said
Senator Harrison. His nonsensical
ranting simply provides further
proof of the bitter. bigoted malig-
nancy against former President
Wilson that he carried in his
brn~St"
otor Borah. of Idaho. "irrec-
cnciliable" leader, called the speech
fine"
