PARK VIEW SCHOOL
SURVEY IS ORDERED
District Association Votes to
Probe Into Transfer
of Students.

A resolution to conduct a thorough
survey, both from an economical and
educational standpoint, Of the question
of the transfer by school authorities Of
more than so children from the Park
View to the Monroe School was adopted
at the first Fall meeting of the District
of Columbia Public School Association
In the Franklin School Building last
night.
The resolution followed lengthy dis
cussion on the subject, during which
MRS. w. T. Bannerman charged these
children have been used as classroom
filters"
The association adopted resolution
reiterating its stand advocating the en-
actment of the Capper-zihlman bill for
the election of members of the Board
of Education by the citizens. 1t also
adopted several resolutions pertaining
to the associations general Fall pro-
gram.
Peace Is Urged.
Stephen z. Kramer, first assistant SUI
perintendent of schools, in an address
before the association urged the smooth
ing out of difficulties and disagreements
between school officials and citizens
through a spirit OF tolerance. adding
that every one was seeking the same
thing-.'What Is best for the child
although individuals do not agree on
the best methods to accomplish results.
He declared the Park View and Mon
roe Schools situation lis duplicated all
over town" in the efforts TO have chill

reach the Petworth school. Citing the
Park View Citizens Associations reso-
lution, rontending that q child should
be allowed to attend any school its
parents chose, and that no child should
be moved from, a building once he Is
admitted. he declared such q policy
would build a wall around every
school," He admitted that some chill
dren had entered the Park View kinder
garten and had been permitted to re-
main there even though they lived out
side the schools boundaries, but said
he didn't know whether they were al
lowed to remain through necessity or
through acquiescence.
Asked by DR.. Carusi why the children
were allowed to enter Park View school
this Fall only to be suddenly trans
ferred. DIR Ballou replied that the
boundary was established last Spring
and that the matter of notifying par
entS was entirely in the hands OF the
supervising principal.
II was at this juncture that DIR.
Carlsi introduced the report Of Mr.. Ely,
the supervising principal. The report
was in the form Of letter to Robert
L. Haycock, assistant superintendent In
charge of elementary schools, and that
officer was questioned about the mo-
tives In ordering the transfer of the
pupils. He told the board that school
boundaries generally are flexible, and
Mr.. Galligan suggested that the dis
puted transfer had been ordered simply
to make flexible boundary infiexible.
This was not agreed to entirely by Mr..
Haycock. who explained that with con-
gestion in one building and small
classes in another, an effort was made
to balance them.
Citing enrolment figures, DIR. H. Bar
rett Learned showed that the Park View
has 900 pupils. while Monroe has $50.
In other words" he said, reason
calls for q decrease in one school and
reason calls for an increase in the other
school, and then sentiment steps in to
interfere. Isn't that the crux Of the
situation?"
Mr.. Haycock admitted this might be
a iair view Of the case.
Mrs. Smith sought to centralize the
issues in the dispute by inquirin3 OF the
protesting parents whether 1t was the
platoon system or the Park View
Building itself which they disliked TO
give up.
The platoon system" was the
unanimous reply.
Then II the Monroe School were
platooned," Mrs. Smith continued,
would that meet with your approval?"
One or two parents replied In the
Affirmative, but without the inStan-
taneous enthusiasm which character
lied their former reply, while one
father declared lit would and 1t
wouldn't" because there was still the

dren living In certain sections OF the
city attend certain schools, indicating
that it is merely o question Of school
boundary lines in the Park View and
Monroe situation.
The executive committee is to decide
prior to next meeting where the asso-
citation will hold its meeting In the
future. It was explained briefly ut the
meeting that the Franklin school was
chosen for last nights meeting due TO
it being Iuuieter at the school than in
the District Building, bordering on
street car lines. Herbert s. Wood. pres
ident of the association, presided.

FURTHER REQUESTS
FOR HIGHER TARIFFS
FOR farm AID MADE
National Poultry Council Off
cial Pleads for Protection
Before Committee

Washington. Jan. 25.--(A)-Furtl,er
requests for higher tariffs on cattle
dairy and farm products were received
by the house ways and means COM
mittcc today on resumption Of its
hearings on tariff revision.
Knox Boudc Of Sebastopol. Califor-
mia. representing the national poultry
council urged All increase to 10 cents
pound In the existing duty OF three
cents on live poultry and 10 cents on
dead poultry as compared with the
present rate of six cents. Other rates
proposed were: Eggs in shell, 10 cents
q dozen as against the present 8
cents; frozen eggs IL cents a pound
against 6: dried yolk 30 cents against
l8: dried albumcn 60 cents against
Is; baby chicks 4 cents each, a new
duty: and live poultry imported for
breeding purposes 50 each, also a new
rate.
Boudc argued that growing imports
made the higher rates necessary to
eqlalize foreign and domestic produc-
tion costs. but committeeman cited
figures showing these were not so
high.
Representative Bacharacn read
tariff commission figures showing inn-
ports OF live poultry were only three
tenths of one per cent of domestic
production and Representative Gar
ner. of Texas. ranking Democrat on
the committee, congratulated the wit
ness ION learning from the manu-

NEbRASKAN URGES
CORN DUTY RAISE

Washington, Jan. 25.-(R)-An in.
crease to 30 cents bushel on corr
duty was urged before the house
ways and means committee today by
]. w. Shorthill Of Omaha, Nebraska
secretary Of the Farmers National
Grain Dealers association.
Shorthill contended that it cost the
American farmer 81 cents q bushel to
move his corn to competing territory
as against only Is cents for Argen-
TIM. corn and that this differential
completely wiped out the existing
duty.
He also argued that motorization
OF the farm had decreased the de-
mand for corn by 10000 600 bushels
while this decline had been partly
met BY an increased demand for corn
o. industrial alcohol manufacturers.
Shorthill believed the demand would
:onttnue to 60 down. He suggested
= duty OF 10 cents q gallon on indus
trial alcohol.
He added that the present corn
duty was no protection whatever to
the farmer and that its maintenance
would result in increased importa-
tions from Argentina to the detrt-
ment OF the American grower.
