SCHOOL ESTIMATE.
TO Be REWR|TTE Ten
Officials Elated Over Victory
in Effort to Get Bigger
Budget.

EIated over the decision of the
Commissioners to restore to the
slashed school budget a number of
the most essential items of the school
construction program. school author
tiles yesterday afternoon began the
preparation of supplemental esti-
mates which will contain all Of the
requirements of the schools original
ly set forth by the board Of educa-
ton. 1t is the intention of the school
officials, through the Commissioners.
to submit the supplementary esti-
mates to the budget bureau with the
hope of impressing on Gen. Lord the
absolute need of the $s.40o.000 asked
for in the original estimates.
DR.. Abram Simon. president OF the
board of education, when informed OF
the plans of the Commissioners to grant
the schools a larger appropriation than
IS, 100000 emphasized that the officials
of the schools appreciate the fine sense
of cooperation of the city heads. Any
amount that the Commissioners add to
the school budget. he said. would be
welcomed, but pointed. out that every
cent called for in the original estimates
is vitally necessary II the school sys-
TEN is to be operated on an efficient
basis.
The amount of the increase to be al
lowed in the school budget was not re-
vealed by the Commissioners. 1t Is un-
derstood. however. to be between ST.
900. 900 and s1,500,000. With the latter
figures the school budget would total
approximately $7,ooo.o00. the figure
which DR.. Simon set as the minimum
required to run the schools for the next
fiscal year.
What items will be restored to the
school estimates neither the Commits
sioners nor the school officials would
disclose. 1t Is believed that the provi-
school and for additions to Western and
Armstrong will be among them.
