Hylan Outb11rst against Melenev
Resented BY Board of Education,

Mayor Hylan's instructions to
"smash Melency' left members of the
Board of Education almost speechlcss
last night
While several members Of the hoar
which is due TO take up the matter of
re-elccting Or. Melcney as associate
superintcrdent Of schools tomorrow
have been openly dsdain OF tho
MAYORS political interference in the
affairs of the Department Of Education,
the general effect upon them of the
news from Palm Beach was like that
OF a bomb explosion.
George j. Ryan, acting president Of
the board, after declaring repeatedly
tnat ne was Every surprised,' asserted
that the instructions from the Mayor
would, he thought. have absolutely No no
effect on the work of the board. nor
would the board, so far as he knew, be
IN the least influenced in its choice of
men for the two Offices of associate su
pcrlntendents that will be filled at tho
regular meeting of the board. He pre-
dicted the reelection Of both Associate
Superintendent Melency and Associate
superintendent McAndrew.
Mrs. Murray in Doubt
Mrs. Emma L. Murray, the only
woman now a member Of the board.
confessed she did not know what to
say. She said the Mayors instruction :
were real news' to her. She refused
10 comment on the situation as it now
exists. referring her questoner to her
past attitude toward the manifestation
o' U poilt1cs in the school system Al
'hough Democrat, as are all other
nf
power, Mrs. Murray saw fit to vote WITH
tne minority when Mrs. Forsythc's
eiectlon as an associate superintendent
was put through after the suspension
OF an important bylaw two weeks aon
=. Mrs. Forsythe had been one of H.
mayors most active feminine aids in
'he ca mpaign last fall and her election
stoutiy was opposed by the Superin-
u, 1enoent OF Schools on basis of merit.
Ihose voting with Mrs. Murray in that
electlon are understood to have been

OF the board. and Nj. Ryan.
Mr. SornerS said he thought snch a
hrazen attempt to control the schools
was almost past belief
You may say said Mr.. Son,ers,
VINO is also member Of the Charte r
REVISION Commission, "that nobody
will prevent me from moving at tho
start of the meeting ednesday for
the immediate reelection of Drs. Mel
eney anf McAndreT. do not know,
of any other candidates who could take
their places with corresponding ability.
They deserve to be re-elccted.'
M. Samuel Stern refused to saw who
he would favor at the meeting to-
morrow. He also refused to discuss
the case Of Miss Agnes Birmingham, a
relative Of the Mayor, who, it has
been persistently said, has been or.

attempts to obtain control Of the

list OF those found qualified for the

Opposition by Mclerey
DR.. Mcleney is understood to have
been one Of the board of superintcnd
entS who was most opposed to Miss
Birmingham. He is the associate su-
pcrlntendent in charge Of high schools
and Division Of the elementary
sch ools.
AS with regard to Drs. McAndrcw
and Melcney. Mr.. Stern declined to dis
cuss the Birmingham case. He would
read his report tomorrow. he said
openly and so every orc might hear
Slgnlhcanacc is attached To the report
because no ono has yet offered a rea
son why Miss McNally would not be
suited for the position Of director of
speech Improvement. The place pays
from 81 400 to 5000
That Governor Miller chose ycstcr-
day to request the prompt passage ns
the Downing bill was said to offset any
advantage the purported Hyian bloc
in the Board of Education might see
in postponing tho election Of the two
associate superintcndcnts Prior 10
A.,
Governor had so acted. there was
much talk of deferring a vote on Drs
McAndrew and Melcncy until the
Mayor comes back"
The Downing bill provides lie
tenure for members of the Board of
SuperintendeNts, except the Superin-
-endcnt Of Schools, whose term the
till would extend from six to ten
years. Passage of the bill before the
Board Of Education has an opportuni. "
tomorrow to drop the two incum be nta
who will come up for reelection
would prevent the possible loss to
the school system Of at least one Il
them. This one you'd be Dr. Melency
whose term expires next Monday. The
term Of Dr. McAnd-ew expires Feb
rusry 2S
According to Acting President Ryan
my 'c-cieCt!oN OIL OrS. NCAnureW anC
Mclcny will be made the first order OF
business at the meeting.
Harry b. Chambers, one of the most
recent Hylan appointees to the Board
of Education, seemed equally impressed
ny the news of the Mayors latest po-
litical dictum. He said, however. that
he would rather not make any comment
on the situation until after he had got
in touch with other members of the
board this morning.
Dr.. Ettnger. the superintendent, re-
vealed keen interest, but refused com
ment, rcmarking merely that he hoped
Drs.. McAndrew and Meleney would be
reelected.
