Politics and the Schools

An important post is shortly TO
be filed by the Board of Education.
Because Of the death of Mrs. Grace
Strachan Forsythe last June new
member Of the Board of Superin-
tendents must be chosen. Upon the
efficiency Of these associate superiu-
tendents depends the success Of the
city's entire educational system, Its
routine, it's morale.
Now, the two most prominent ap-
plicants for this post represent ad-
mirably the two contesting princl-
pies of school management. The
first is Miss Olive NJ. Jones. She Is
the principal Of Public School 120
for delinquent boys and has q ma
tional reputation as an educational
expert. She is one Of the outstand-
ing figures among the teachers, men
and women, of the city's schooi
system. The second is another
principal, Miss Margaret McCooey
a sister Of John H. McCooey, the
Democratic boss Of Kings County.
No outstanding qualifications have
been urged in behalf of Miss Nc
Cooey, and her candidacy is pre-
eminent only in It's political aspects
There are strong reasons why ths
Board of Education should name c
woman to succeed Mrs. Forsythe
But to name Miss McCooey would
be & frank surrender Of the schoo
system to Mr.. Hylan and his DO.

Jones Is an admirable candidate

chosen, whether from the city.
forces or elsewhere, whose qualifica,
tions are demonstrated and recog
nized. There are such, beyond ques.
tion. But The Tribune has not yet
heard any such man mentioned fo,
the Office. As the problem stands
according to present reports, the
race is between Miss Jones anc
political candidate-either Mis-,
McCooey or q man similarly
equipped,
The issue facing the Board OF
Education is a serious one and its
decision Will be watched by every
parent. The Tribune hopes that
the Board will see its way to rebuff
this renewed effort OF politics to en-.
ter the school system.

The Mystery of Gravisation

The chorus Of protest against the
optimistic dispatches from San
Francisco which represented that
the problem of gravitation had been
solved was to be expected. What
ever progress Captain See may
have made such a miracle Of dis
covery can hardly be included
therein.
1t is not too much to say that the
force Of gravity, It's nature and
manner of operation, is quite as
complete a mystery to-day as when
Sir Isaac Newton first guessed its
existence and described its effects.
The whole discovery and the re-
;earches conducted for two CEN
turies since as a result are an es
cellent illustration of just how
much and just how little science has
succeeded in discovering.
Gravity is such an old story now
that the popular attitude is apt to
oyerestimate what is known con-
cerning it. It's workings have been
calculated with such nicely that the,
whole solar system has been meas
ured and plotted in space and in
time. In its most obvious form we
feel it every time we leap in the
air and are pulled back to the Garth
IL is equally certain and its tugging
power can be just as accurately cal
culated in the case Of the sun pull
ing at each Of tho planets across
millions Of miles and holding them
from fiying off into space quite as
effectively as il each were TIED
at the end OF wire rope.
But what is this invisible force
that operates across these vast
spaces? BY what means does II
pass from sun to planet, from earth
to leaping human - and Uice
Versas Science has thus far not
reached the beginning of an by.
pothesis. The hypothesis Of an in.
visible ether has proved of value ir
the investigation Of light. Not ever
this much OF trial theory has beer
suggested for the force Of gravity
So far from clearing up the mys
terry of the solar system the discov.
cry Of gravity but added to the
marvels Of its order and rhythm. We
can now calculate its forces-s won
derful achievement. Their source
and character are still completely
hidden.
