MAY DROP ALL CIVIL
TUTORS AT ACADEMY
Dismissal of % Out of 72 Seen as
Policy Aiming to Restore
Old Order.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
ANNAPOLIS. June 2S.-Reduction
in the number Of civilian teachers
at the Naval Academy, due to a
policy of retrenchment, is believed
to be the beginning of the end for
civilian teachers and a return to the
old policy of having practically all
the instruction given by naval Of
ficers.
Twenty-three civilian teachers, out
Of total of seventy-two, not includ-
ing those in the department of physi-
cal training, have been dropped, and
the number included several who had
been connected with the teaching
force of the academy twenty years.
The reduction amount to practically
one-third of the whole force
Ten of those who failed of reap
pointment were attached to the de-
partment of modern languages,
seven to that of English, four to
mathematics and one to marine en-
gineering and naval construction.
One instructor in the department Of
physical training was also dropped.
May Appeal to Congress.
Inere Is no doubt that an appeal
will be made to Congress in the mat
ter, particularly as it is claimed that
the standard Of education will drop
on account of the drastic cut in civil
ian instructors, who are trained and
experienced teachers.
Many Navy officers who hold that
as much instruction of midshipmen
as possible should be by naval Of
ficers. Others hold that in the gen.
eral branches. better instruction is
given by outside teachers.
In 1914, following an investigation
of the system of instruction, a large
number of civilian teachers were in
stalled, and the number has been in
creased from time to time. Now 1t
Is feared, the force will be cut to such
an extent that it will exert little in
fuence in the education of midship-
men.
Rear Admiral Henry P. Wilson, su-
perintendent Of the academy, stated
that the reduction was made neces-
sary by the decreased appropriation
made by Congress for the payment of
instructors. He also said that the
selection, of those to be retained were
made for the best interests of the
Naval Academy

Sociation has not voted any criticism
of the present mayor and council, but
has assisted that body and cooper
ated in many ways. it is pointed out.
One of the most important tasks
In which the association was invited
by the mayor and council to assist
was the preparation of charter
amendments. These amendments as
originally drawn UP and revised by a
committee appointed by the mayor
and council, of which committee the
president of this association was a
member, had the approval both of
this association and of the mayor and
council. Due to subsequent changes
in these amendments before going to
does not appear to be generally
known, these amendments, as the peo-
pie of. Brentwood know, were voted
down, and rightly SO. if we may
Judge by the voice of the people.
However, in this and other lines this
association has worked in direct CO.
operation with the corporate officials
of the town.
This association does not wish to
make any criticism other than that
which is constructive. 1t does, how
ever, wish to refute the unjust and
unwonted criticism which is now be-
ing used apparently as propaganda
against those who may be candidates
In the approaching town elections
There appear to be several candi-
dates who are members of this as
sociation, which fact should prove to
all well meaning citizens who have
the interests of Brentwood at heart
that they are progressive and show
an interest in the welfare of their
town"
Polls will be located in Firemen's
Hall, and will be open from / to
