SCHOOL HEADS
REFUSE TO CUT
1928 ESTIMATES
Letter of Protest to Be Sent
D. c. Commissioners
Tomorrow.
SIS, 500, 900 MAXIMUM
IMPOSSIBLE, THEY SAY
Reductions as Demanded by Bud
get Bureau Held Ruinous
in Crisis.

Cutting of the school estimates for
the next fiscal year to the figure set
by the budget bureau will be i'm
possible, public school authorities will
tell the District Commissioners in a
comprehensive statement which was
virtually completed today by Supt.
Frank w. Ballou and other officials.
The statement will be transmitted
to the Commissioners Immediately
after the board of education approves
it at it's meeting tomorrow afternoon
in the Franklin School.
Chagrined at the continued slash
ing of the school appropriations,
which has, resulted in the serious lack
of housing accommodations for the
ever-growing school population,
school officials will explain in the let
ter of protest TO the Commissioners
that they have reached a point where
they will no longer condone such
drastic reductions in their estimates
as ordered for the next fiscal year.
They also will defiantly point out. it
is understood. that they cannot con-
scientiously reduce their budget to
$5.50O.O00, as instructed by the bureau
of the budget through the Commits
sioners.
SS,4OO,OOO Original Budget.
The original budget of the schools
for the next fiscal year totaled sS.400.-
600. The principal item it contained
was building program designed prl-
marily to relieve the overcrowded
conditions in the high schools The
reduction ordered by the budget bu-
reau will preclude the carrying out of
this construction program. 10 other
words it will barely provide for the
salaries of the 1900 teachers and the
maintenance expenses of the school
system.
The statement will specifically point
out that it is the desire of the school
officials to cooperate in every way
with the Commissioners in reducing
the school budget. and will outline
the essential building needs which
must be met in the new estimates to
accommodate the already greatly
overtaxed high schools.
BalIou Denies Statement.
DR.. Ballou, who has just returned
from his vacation at Belgrade Lakes.
Me-, declined today to make any
comment on the statement Whether
il will be made public, he said. Will
be left entirely to the school board
to decide.
Besides considering the statement
at its session tomorrow, the school

sonnel for the next school year

Miss Evelyn Houcke, assistant

REFUSE TO HOLD UP
TARIFF FOR BONUS
Senate and House Conferees
Vote, 5 to 3, to Stick to
Task Until Finished.

By vote of 5 to Senate and
House conferees refused today to
sidetrack the administration tariff bill
for the soldiers bonus measure.
Senators McCumber. North Dakota,
republican, and Simmons. North Caro-
ina, and Walsh, Massachusetts, demo-
Gratis, voted to take up the bonus inn
mediately. but opposing them were
Senators Smoot, Utah, republican and
representative Fordney, Michigan
Longworth, Ohio. and Green, Iowa,
republicans. and Garner. Texas, demo-
crat. Senator Mclean, Connecticut,
republican. and Representative Col
lier, democrat, Mississippi. the other
two conferees. were absent.
Democrats mt Session.
Today's meeting was the first to
which the democratic conferees had
heen invited in since work on the
tariff was begun, two weeks ago.
They were excluded after the vote,
and the republicans went ahead with
the rewriting of the tariff bill. Good
progress in that direction was re-
ported, and Chairman Mccunber of
the Senate managers believed the
task would be finished by the nnd of
this week or early in the next week.
Chairman Fordney of the House
managers led the opposition to i'm
mediate consideration of the bonus
bill. He argued that the tariff al
ready had been nearly three years in
the making and that IL snouli not be
laid aside. Urging quick action on
the bonus, Chairman McCumber ar
pued that an agreement on this meas
ure probably could be reached with
in a few hours, and called attention
that the bonus legislation had been
pending a year, longer than had the
tariff.

PRESIDENT ASKS
NEW PANAMA PACT
Would Abrogate Present
Treaty Covering Only
Canal Construction.

Abrogation of the present treaty
arrangement with Panama. which. he
said, was intended to operate only
during the construction of the
Panama canal, and the negotiation
of a new treaty with that govern
ment was recommended to Congress
today by President Harding.
With a communication to- Speaker
Gillett, setting forth his views, and
declaring that the change was de-
sired by the government of Panama
the President transmitted a letter
from Acting Secretary Phillips of the
State Department, setting forth that
the agreement, formulated by Secre-
tary of War Taft in 1904. was to
serve as moduS operandi during
the period of canal construction. Later
it was ratified in the Panama canal
act.
Treaty Purposes Served.
The agreement, Mr.. Phillips said, nc
longer provides IAN adequate basis
for adjustment of questions arising
out of the relations between the
Canal Zone authorities and the gov
ernment of Panama, and it is the
opinion of this department, and I am
Informed of the War Department
also, that the agreement should be
replaced by more permanent ar
rangement. =
Writing the Speaker. the President
said:
Il am sending you herewith copy of a
letter addressed to me by the Acting
Secretary of State setting forth the de-
STABILITY DISCRIMINATING the present
treaty arrangement with Panama and
the negotiation of a new treaty with
that government.
Considered for Some Time.
This is a matter which has been
under consideration by the State De-
partment for some time and the recon-
mendation Of the Acting Secretary has
been forecast by developing events for
several months. 1t is altogether de-
sirable that the temporary. agreement
which has governed our relations with
the government Of Panama be super
seded by a new. covenant.
LAS soon as Congress grants the au-
thority to abrogate the existing agree
ment it will be possible to proceed with
the negotiation which is desired on the
part of both the government Of the
United States and the government of
Panama"

conflicts between employer and en-

was declared today by Secretary
Hoover to be lone OF the most vital
issueSbefore u.s."
In formal statement discussing
this phase of the industrial problem
Mr.. Hoover said:
Text OF Statement.
'"There is one fundamental lesson
that the public should absorb from the
coal situation, and this lesson can be
derived without discussion of the
rights and wrongs of the demands of
either mine workers or mine oper-
ators, or the incidents of negotiation
in their settlement. That Is. four
month suspension of production in
the coal industry, while primarily a
conflict between employer and en-
ploye brings the public in as the
largest sufferer. The public is the
victim of infinite loss; unemployment
extends from 1t not only to the work
ers in the industry. but to hundreds
of thousands outside of it; great dam
age is done to commerce and 1ndus-
try; public healkh is jeopardized and
a vast wave of crime and defiance OF
the law has ensued.
Public Has No Voice.
yet the public has no voice in the
negotiations and cannot express it.
self as to the right or wrong of the
matter. The demands of either side
may be just or unjust, but the largest
sufferer concerned has no representa-
tion in the discussion.
1.-The working out of plan under
which the public may have rightful
voice in aid of justice and in its own
protection is one, of the most vital
issues before u.s."
Discussion of means of anthracite
distribution probably will be taken
UP at conferences here tomorrow,
Mr. Hoover indicated. Representa-
tives Of the anthracite operators and
the Pennsylvania state, fuel commit
tee. he said, are being asked to meet
with Federal Fuel Distributor Spen-

problem now was the question OF

production is resumed.
Some experts, Mr.. Hoover declared

not approach normal in less than a
month, but in his opinion, he as

BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Unless Attorney General Daugherty
modifies. the phraseology of the tenn
porary injunction which he has OBJ
tanned against the railroad shopmen
severe criticism of his course is in
evitable in the United States Senate
Senator Borah of Idaho, chairman
of the Senate committee on labor,
told this correspondent today that he
did not feel warranted in criticizing
the Attorney General at this time
and that he would prefer to wait un-
til after September II, when the
federal court will decide whether to
make the temporary injunction a
permanent one and in what form it
shall apply. Mr.. Borah feels, how
ever, that the temporary Injunction
If made permanent would be dan.
gerous precedent and that the right
Of Interference of the government
in private affairs would thereafter
be almost unlimited.
Far-ReachIng Effects.
II, for instance, b. M. Jewell, head Of
the striking shopmen, can be enjoined
from giving an interview to the press on
the subject of the strike. it might be
possible for some newspaper to be en-
joined from publishing it and writer's
might be restrained from discussing it
in print. In other words, situation
parallel to that which Gov. Allen pre-
cipitated when he had William Allen
White, an editor, arrested for putting
poster in. his window might be de-
veloped.
Senator Borah and others feel the
in some respects drastic injunction
might violate the constitutional rights
of citizens and it is sure to provoke
of the governments power are not
sharply defined. Mr.. Borah and others
friendly to labor recognize that the
government has the right to obtain in
functions which will restrain any union
men from melting their COLLEAGUES to
acts of violence. This rests not merely
on the Sherman law, but upon well
established rules OF jurisprudence which
the courts of equity have long recog-
mixed But whether the injunction can
be extended to cover other acts and
their men is quite another question
Mr.. Jewell, for example, can be en-
Joined from telling his men either
or collectively that they
must infimidate strikebreakers or
otherwise annoy those who want to
work or in any way damage railroad
property But the courts cannot, in
the opinion Of many senators, inter-
fere with the lawful conduct Of q;
strike unless and until Congress mixes
. strike itself Illegal
