Paonessa Declares Great Opposition to Program of Education Commit toe Has Come to His Ears-Prsi. dent King Estimates Cost at S5iO,- OOO-Supt. Holmes Calls Criticism "Favortte Indoor Sport"

Charges that a whispering cam paign Of propaganda against the proposed Senior High school addition ts being conducted were included in the statements made by members Of the school accommodations commit tee who came to the office of Mayor Paonessa today in a second unsuc- cessfui attempt to speed up the pro- posed building.
 The mayor made it plain that he would not assume the burden of more than $5O0,00O worth of school construction until the public has had an opportunity 10 express its wishes. Tn view of reported opposition 10 the program. To Committeeman George J.eWitt's declaration, We've got to have a decision right away" the mayor coolly replied: Don't be in a hurry"
 Cafeteria Is Out
 One of the most important of the recent developments came today when tho accommodations commit tee announced 1t has dropped the Idea of building a cafeteria in the senior high school and by so doing has cut the cost by about S15.000. The first authentic figure on costs was also conveyed to the mayor when President Patrick F. King said the original estimate of $50O.o0o. which it had been hoped would be high, is actually low and that the proposed building would cost in ex- cess of that amount.
 Attending today's session with the mayor were President King, Commit teomen George Levitt. Louis w. Young. M. D. Sake and Superinten- dent s. H. Holmes.
 Opening the discussion. Mir. King declared that the city has come face to face with very urgent prob- lem. the most economical solution of which seems to be the construc- ton of an addition 10 the present senior high school unit. The chair the committeeman was to furnish the mayor with full information in an effort to gain his cooperation and have work started. pointing out that even if work begins at once. tho school will be in state of disorgan- ization for at least two years. The proposed building. he said. would not only provide senior high school ac- for at least eight or 10 years. but also will relieve the Junior High school problem for three or four years. The cost. first estimated by him as less than half a million dollars, will probably be about t540.o00 he said. With refer cnce to the agitation for new senior high school elsewhere. Mir. King said the cost would be prohi- bitive, probably exceeding $1,000,- 900.
