ANSWER QUESTIONS
ON SCHOOL NEEDS
Officials and Ex-City Archi.
tect Appear Before Con-
greSs Committee.

School officials and former Munich
pal Architect Snowden Ashford are
be fore the District subcommittee Of
the House appropriations committee
today. and are being closely cross
examined regarding the District
school building program. The ques-
tion of employing outside architects
to draw plans for new school build
ings is to be closely investigated by
the subcommittee.
Clash Marks Hearing.
Former Municipal Architect Snowden
Ashford clashed with District school au-
thoritieS at heated hearing on school
house facilities before the subconmittee
yesterday. The old dispute over plans
for the Eastern High School was re-
vived, Mr. Ashford severely criticising
changes made in his drawings for that
building. The argument of the school
officials was that changes were made in
the plans to remedy defects and to save
money.
Mr.. Ashford charged that the changes
We're "a detriment to the building" The
school officials said they We're necessary
in order tnat all the students might have
full use of the assembly hall. lunchroom
and locker facilities Mr.. Ashford OBJ
jected particularly to changes made in
the heating and ventilating system and
the Encouragement of the main entrance
and of the auditorium. Repeatedly Mr..
Ashford was pressed for more specific
and definite explanations of his remarks
by Stephen +. Kramer, assistant super
intendent.
MIR. AshfOrd's Statements.
The assertion was made by Mr.. Ash
ford that several Investigations had
showed there is sufficient seating ca
pacty in the existing schools for all the
pupils enrolled in the District. He said
that the investigators had found many
vacant seats. The reply of the school
authorities was that at certain hours of
the day some children are temporarily
absent from their regular classrooms
taking special courses. such as manual
arts and domestic science. They said
that a few vacant seats in an Anacostia
school could not be used by pupils in the
Mount Pleasant section.
The transformation of the proposed
auditorium into a theater was criticised
by Mr. Ashford. who pointed out that
the ceiling had to be made higher to
provide for shifting scenery. The school
authorities said that the main floor
plans made by Mr.. Ashford would not
accommodate the l 500 pupils for whom
the building is intended that provision
was made for locker room for only 500,
and that there was entirely inadequate
lunchroom facilities.

LEWIS CALLS OFF
COAL conference
Declares Operators Refused
to Meet Miners at Pitts
burgh Par|ey.

INDIANAPOLIS, January 4.-The
meeting of coal operators of the CEN
tral competitive field with officers of
called to meet at Pittsburgh Friday.
was called off today by John l..
Lewis, president of the union.
The Pittsburgh meeting was called
for the purpose of fixing "a date for
holding negotiations on wage
agreement to become effective next
April. and Mr.. Lewis. in a formal
statement. declared the meeting was
abandoned because the operators re-
fused to meet with the miners.
Holds Meeting Futile.
Mr.. Lewis added that the union
would be ready to meet with the
operators whenever possible, but he
said it would have been futile to hold
the Pittsburgh meeting because oper-
ators in Western Pennsylvania and
the two largest Ohio districts had
refused to participate in it. His
statement in full follows:
The interstate agreement between
the operators and miners of the CEN
tral competitive field. comprising
the states of western Pennsylvania.
Ohio. Indiana and Illinois, which is
in effect until March 81, 1922, in
elusive. contains the following reso-
luton. which is binding upon all par
ties signatory to the contract:
Resolved, That an interstate joint
conference be held prior to April l.
1922: the time and place of holding
such meeting is referred to a commit
tee of two operators and two miners
from each state herein represented.
together with the international oifi-
GERS of the United Mine Workers or
ganiZation.'
Refuse to Participate.
I'm harmony with this resolution
and for the purpose set forth therein.
this office. on December l6. 1921. is
sued call for joint meeting to be
held in Pittsburgh, Pa, on January 6.
1922. This call was forwarded to
of all groups of oper-
atorS and miners of the central COM
petitive field. The coal operators of
western Pennsylvania and the two
largest districts of Ohio have un-
qualifiedly refused to participate in
the proposed joint meeting. 1t would
be futile to convene such a meeting
without adequate representation of
the operating interests in the central
competitive field, and this office has.
therefore. today been reluctantly COM
PEELED to notify interested parties that
the proposed joint meeting has been
Cancelled.
at may be considered unfortunate
that substantial groups of opera tors
in the central competitive field have
seemingly forgotten or ignored their
obligations under the provisions of
the joint wage agreement. Aside from
the natural obligation to carry out
the provisions of an agreement by
which they are bound, it is essential
from a standpoint of public interest,
that joint meeting of operators and
miners be held. In no other way can
the problems of the coal industry be
solved. and in due time circumstances
will compel such a meeting. Represent
atives of the mine workers will hold
themselves in readiness to participate
in such a meeting whenever it be-
comes possible for them to do So"
