Shortage OF Money
Prompts Resignation
of Winchester Supt.

Winchester, March 2S-Fred-
erjck +. Clerk, who for four
wears has been the superintend-
ent of the Handley Schools, or
Winchester, resigned, and his
resignation was accepted by the
School Boaad of Winchester last
evening, to become effective Sep
TENDER l, 1923. Under the
agreement made between the
trustees Of the John Handley es-
tate and the City Council, Janu-
ary 1919, it was made clear that
only a superior school should be
maintained.
In his letter Of resignation Mi.
Clerk states that the time has
come when there are not enough
teachers / and the City Council
has been asked to temporarily IN
crease the city appropriation from
$4,000 10 $4,000 per annum. A
special committee investigated ru-
nors of ill-spent morey IN the
construction of the new building
at a cost of 100000 and gave
a clean sheet. The School Boari
then asked the city council to m
crease the appropriation. At the
council meeting last night, 1t IS
said. two members were absent
suddenly taken i'll, and the chair
man of two committee found tina;
their estimates for their need;
we're too low. Another member
remarked that he had told them
so at first, and when The vote
was taken it resulted--SiX to four
Favorable to the acceptance OF
the resignation.
Mr.. Clerk states as his reason
for resigning The refusal Of the
city council TO increase the APP
preparation of funds from city
taxes for public education.
This refusal, after q thorough
investigation Of the schools by
its own committee and in spite o.!
the favorable report from this
committee and it soUh vote OF
approval Of the schooy SYSTEM
makes il necessary for NE 70
withdraw from active participation
in the Handley School, so that a
superintendent may be secured at
a less salary.
your acceptance Of this resie
nation will make it impossible for
some OF the money now beng
spent for the superintendent sal
airy to be used for teachers in
the elementary grades, where the
children are now being depriyey
of a Just share of educational op-
portunities because we have not
