Dear Mr.. Howell:
From late returns there seems to
be no doubt that Coolidge and Dawes
carried Minnesota by a very large
vote. The colored citizens of Mime
sofa played a very important part in
the Minnesota campaign this fall and
rallied strongly to the support of the
Republican party. The consistent
and effective manner in which the
Northwestern Bulletin-Appeal placed
the issues Of the day from the Re-
publican viewpoint before our group
rendered valuable service to the
cause.

BOARD
ISSUE IS DROPPED
D. C. Heads Omit From
Teachers Pay Bill Clause
Governing Appointments.

Although they agreed yesterday to
omit from the teachers salary bill
the question Of who should appoint
the board Of education, the Com
r1issioners are still firmly of the be-
lief that the school board should be
named by the heads OF the District
government.
One spokesman for the Commits
sfoners emphatically stated today
that the rider changing the method
OF appointing the school board was
dropped from the pay bill only be-
cause 1t was felt the provision
might retard passaGe OF the measure.
VIII Act ON Matter Later.
Tho Commissioners will proceed in
the near future with the drafting Of
separate measure transferring the
power OF appointing the board Of
education from the justices Of the
OF Commissioners.
Yesterdays conference at the Treas
ury Department between the Com
missioners' salary bill was the one
at the District building as a victory
for the city heads. in that the Con-
missionerSs salary bill was the one
ofncially considered.
Drafted New Bill.
The Commissioners wrote their own
teachers pay bill after the board Of
education had submitted the original
bill to them, because they felt 1t call
ed for too large an expenditure for
maximum salaries.
The belief prevailed at the District
building today that the budget bu-
reau probably will approve the teach
ers' pay bill as drafted by the Com
missioners with few changes.
