SCHOOL BOARD
FIGHT NEARS
CLIMAX
Mrs. Eastburn's Resigna-
item to Be Demanded
at Meeting.

With the wheels well oiled to re-
place Mrs. Byron Eastburn as secre-
tary of the San Antonio school board,
the other two women members of the
board, Mrs. Wheeler Pettus and Mrs.
G. w. Satterfield, we're undecided
Thursday as to whether they would ac-
lcept the office.
The school board row over the back
pay for teachers will reach a climax at
10 o'clock Friday morning when a
special meeting is called, at which
time a resolution will be presented to
ask Mrs. Eastburn to resign as secre-
tary, and, il she does not, resolution
declaring the office vacant.
REFUSES TO SIGN.
Mrs. Pettus, one of the proposed
nominees, says she will not accept.
Mrs. Satterfield had not made up her
mind as to what she would do.
The fight on Mrs. Eastburn is being
made because she refuses to sign the
back pay checks of teachers, until she
feels that the proceeding is legal.
The movement to GUST Mrs. East
burn from her office is led by John
F. Fentiman and has the support of
six members of the board, it Is under
stood.
The procedure of custer will be in
the form of resolution demanding
that Mrs. Eastburn resign her office
Immediately.
If Mrs. Eastburn refuses to COM
ply with the demand, it is said,
resolution declaring the office OF sec
rotary vacant will then be offered and
voted through by a majority of the
board.
DOUBTS LEGALITY
The board will then proceed 10
elect new secretary.
The opposition to Mrs. Eastburn, as
secretary, is based on her steadfast
refusal to sign the warrants for back
pay for the teachers of the public
school.
This refusal is based by Mrs. East
burn on the grounds that such pay
ment is illegal.
Tuesday the board, by a vote of
to 1, requested the officials of the
board, President Haines and Mrs.
Eastburn, secretary, to sign the war
rants.
Mr.. Fentiman alleges that such re-
fusal to obey an order of the board
constitutes grounds, under the indie
pendent school district charter, war
ranting Mrs. Eastburn's removal as
secretary.

| MUST report to the convention that
the carrying out Of the above de-
cisions Of the Central Executive Com
mittee met with some determined OPP
position and disagreement on the part
of some responsible comrades in the
Russian Federation. You are probab.
ly familiar with the fact that at the
very first meeting Of the new editor
ial board (Olgin, Brailovsky, Bourgin)
Comrade Brailovsky on motion by
Comrade Olgin was appointed secre-
tary Of the editorial board. This de-
cision was greatly resented by the old
management committee, altho even
now would find II difficult to explain
why, for instance. the management
committee and the manager were
called upon to pass judgment upon
matters OF an editorial nature. How.

The Pound Lesson

THE dramatic story Of British cur
L rency has just reached its climax,
thrilling TO economists, bankers and stu
dents if not TO the world in general.
British money is now back on n gold
basis And, as forecast by this paper
some weeks ago. the pound sterling today
is everywhere at par for the first time
since the war when so many monies went
tumbling
Chancellor Winston Churchill had every
reason TO feel proud when the other day
he stood before n crowded parliament and
told his hearers the story of reduced
taxes, balanced budgets and sound fl
nanceS. II took backbone of an eXcep-
tional sort, both national and individual,
to go thru with the program of almost
confiscatory taxation put into force fol-
lowing the war
But the BritlTh had it. So today they
are merely reaping the reward of sacri-
fices made.
Certain other nations of Europe have
not been so wise, nor so Spartan. The
result is they are almost over their heads
in the rising tide of debts, interest pay
ments and general financial worries-not
TO say dangers.
The story of Britain's financial come
back contains mighty good lesson for
all such.

Deer There!

TT MAY be discouraging to the more or
i less idle and rich who plan TO summer
tour Europe, but news is news.
II seems that, during the world war,
our heroes, and most others in the
trenches, became intimate with what, in
Difference TO delicacy, were called Coolies
The ancestry of the ''cootie" is not def
nitely located, but our boys. so far rs they
investigated, determined that not many
generations far removed it was the good
old-fashioned seven-year itch, "ssoci-
ated with paper of No. Q needles. Dur
ing the process of making the world safe
for democracy our boys eliminated many
of the coolies" in their monthly baths
and hourly scratching tests, but, as in the
case of flies, the 'cootie' multiplies by
geometric progression, so that pair that
escaped the scratching in 1918 can now
look with pride upon progeny of 49,
64S,251, or Whereabouts.
Today, the tourist returning from the
butchery fields of Ypres, the Argonne and
so forth is apt to be met by French Off
cial holding the honorable position of de
louser. There can be no JOY in passing thru
the hands of French customs official only
to fall into the hands of French de-
louser. Fortunately, however, the cogno-
men ''cootie" has been adopted by the
French and you will not have to wrestle
with the French name for it. Just say
''cootie" and they'll know what you've got.
They've had it themselves.
