Merchants Ask For
Hour Parking Limit

Objection to the half-hour park
ing law is being voiced by Main
street merchants. They say it
interferes with shoppers. They
point out that it does not give
shoppers time to transact bust
ness either in a store or bank.
Main street merchants say there
is actual need of parking law.
All day parking should be pro-
hibited. Also, extended parking
by residents of the city, even in
front of their own places of bus

Il base my claim On 80 -. .al,,p-
utes of the Board of Education,
dated April A and Is, 1928 Those
minutes show that Il blanket res.
olution was passed giving 500 TO
all teachers elected or reelected.
The first resolution not only
included me, but also non-teach-
ing principals, and designated n.y.
self as well as the non-teaching
principals as teachers.
"The non-teaching principals
and all the teachers, excepting
myself, received that increase.
"Mr. Smith would not object to
taking money himself for services
rendered.
ut is evident that am entitled
to it in accordance with the iuin.
utes, for the school law says that
the superintendent salary can
not be reduced, and there have
been Instances where it has beer
increased"

mess is Objectionable.
Many merchants express them
selves in favor of parking for an
hour, with the limit enforced.
They are most anxious to build
up Pleasantville as trading CEN
ter for the Mainland and have
met with much encouragement.
Lately, however, or since the en-
forcement of the half-hour park
ing ordinance, they say that bus
mess has not been of the volume
they have been getting.

Claim Tuesday.
Court Fight Looms
Ex-School Head Employs
Counsel-Declares Money

Claim.

A battle in the courts with the
Board of Education represented
on one side, and William c. SulH.
van, former superintendent. on tbe
other, looms as the ex.school head
continues to contend that he wiz,
use every means at his disposal
to collect $500, which he declares
due him as back salary.
Board of Education members
unanimously declare that, unless
they are forced, they will never
give the former superintendent
money to which they say he has
no right. With the assertion
they denounce Mr.. Sullivan for
attempting to push the claim.
Louis Champion, solicitor for
the Board, will give a Adhesion as
to whether or not Mr.. Sullivan is
entitled to the money he demands
at a Board meeting Tuesday night.
The former school head, it is re-
ported, has hired a lawyer to take
the matter to court in case the
solicitor makes a report which is
against his claim.
l.. G. Smith, a member OF the
Board here, is among members
who declare that Mr.. Sullivan
will never, if he can help it, get
the money.
He will never get the $500 that
he claims as back pay as far az /
am concerned, because it is not
due him." Mr.. Smith says. A CON
tract, setting the salary at s3,200
a year for a period oSA three years,
was requested by Mr.. Sullivan.
Further than that, he even had
the papers drawn up, and nothing
concerning an increase was either
mentioned in the contract, Or
brought before the Board. Of Halu-

LITTLE CHILD AP-

TIERS ASKING AID BE
GIVEN FAMILY

Tap. Tap. Tap. And then not
another sound was heard through
out the house. The Red Cross sec
retary busy in her home heard no
one stirring down below stairs, and
hearing the timid knock below, she
proceeded to investigate.
A little child stood at the door
holding out note to her, which
begged for food. She told the Red
Cross secretary that her father
had been i'll and had not been
working for weeks, and that there
was nothing to eat in the house.
The secretary gave her a note
and directed her to a nearby
grocer, who would supply her with
groceries for the next few days.
The girl wished the note to be re-
turned so that she could beg fur
ther. But the secretary explained
to her that she represented the
Red Cross and she would take care
of her until work could be secured
for the father.
In twelve hours the Red Cross
was in the home and had instruct
ed the mother in the nreparation
of the food for the kiddies.
The Red Cross secretary urges
that all needy cases be reported to
her SO that they can be handled
through that organization, and
much annoyance can be saved the
housewives. The work OF that
Organization Is far and wide, its
good reaching into the tiniest re-
cesses Of the home, teaching fanni-
lies better ways in which to live
and aiding them in their needs.
