fthe warm seasons of the year and cluster about a coal stove in the winter?".
 The mayors statement reads: "1t has come to my attention tha. the school committee on recommen- dation of Superintendent Holmes, has sanctioned the setting up Of portable schools to take care of the overflow at the Stanley school.
 II believe the portable or sheet iron schools were purchased and 1 erected during the war when we had trouble with scarcity of labor. Superintendent Holmes has. been quoted as saying that these buildings must now be used because there are no available funds for an addition to the Stanley school. yet he has not asked the board of finance and taxa tion or myself to provide funds for additions to the elementary schools.
 How can the school board expect the public to be contented with the explanation that the children of the | northern section must accept these | conditions because no appropriation exists for elementary school con- struction' when 1t is a matter of rec 1 ord that Superintendent Holmes knew of the overcrowded condition of the Stanley school and reported the facts to the school committee last September. and yet, disregarding the facts before them. the commit tee members demandcs an appro- ! priation for the Bassett street build ing, which would not be needed for many years. and did nothing to re lieye conditions 10 the north?
 Tt is true that the so-called addi- ton to the Senior High school may he expected to be a beautiful build ing, as construction goes. but it does nothing to improve conditions in the elementary schools, where the need is acute. Is it fair for any group of officials 10 build monument to
 mark their term of public life al the expense of little children who must swelter in galvanized iron box in the warm seasons of the year, and cluster about a coal stove in the winter? Portable schools create
 just such conditions. I have con sistently fought against their use anyone who has any knowledge of the subject would rather subscribe from his personal funds to build a proper schoolhouse than sanction continued use of portables.
 | 'f t,o I discussed this subject in a message to the common council and believe a quotation from that message will clearly show what my attitude has been toward this situation. At that time I said: The northern section of the city will. in future years. pre- sent a more troublesome problem of school accommodations than at present. and I wish to state that l am in favor of steps looking to re- lief of the districts north of the railroad crossover. The schools of the northern district are crowded 1 for the most part. We also have classes on part time. condition which should not be allowed to con- tinue any longer
 ''The school committee is charged with the responsibility of properly housing and educating our children. It is the committees duty to face the facts, coming 10 the proper au- thorities when a problem arises. To erect portable buildings and require children to pursue their studies un- der those conditions is not the pro- per solution"

KILL MOSQUITOES
WITH POWER FANS
New Methods Tested by
Health Service on LarvaI
Deposits.

City health commissioners and other
municipal authorities throughout the
United States are to join hands with
the United States Public Health SerV-
ice in efforts to stamp out the mos
quito nuisance and wage war against
the chief cause of malaria fever.
Engineers connected with the Gov
ernments Public Health Service an
nounce, through a special bulletin of
the Treasury Department, of a simple
and economical method for killing mos
quito larvae in swamp and lake regions
where countless millions Of mosquitoes
breed The method already has been
introduced in many regions and proved
successful in preventing mosquito raids
on communities, experts in the Public
Health Service say.
Use Portable Blower Fan.
The plan involves the use of a porta-
bic blower fan, similar to those used for
-'7entilating homes and Offices, to spray
mixture of paris green and powdered
lime over SwampS and lakes where the
mosquito larvae are usually found. The
whole unit, including gasoline driven
electric generator, cap~be set up in a
rowboat with cupboard motor. The
busting activity and guiding of the boat
can be accomplished by one man. j.
A. LIE Prince, senior sanitary engineer,
and H. A. johnson, technical assistant
in sanitary engineering of the Public
Health Service, declared after tests that
this method can be economically used
where no other known method of larval
control is feasible.
The blower used has a nozzle velocity
Of 500 cubic feet per minute and
moves As cubic feet of dust-laden air
per minute. 1t can be depended upon
to dust effectively up to at least 525 feet
from the path of liberation, LIE Prince
said. AirplaneS may be used for larger
areas to be busted. and, of course, this
means the use of bigger blowers to dis
tribute the paris green dust mixture. 1t
was found however. that the rowboat
method was best applicable to areas Of
l to 100 acres, and could be used to
advantage on the upper reaches of i'm
pounded waters, on overgrown swamp
areas, small vegetation covered lakes.
fishing ponds, mill ponds and even large
bayouS.
Tested In Tennessee Lake.
"Reelfoot Lake. in Northwestern Ten
nesSee, was selected as a place to work
out the details of the busting equip
ment," LIE Prince said This lake is
of earthquake formation. with thou
sands of submerged stumps. the result
Of decaying forest 1t has large areas
OF shallow and denSely overgrown wa
ter and there are many types Of moss.
duckweed, lilies and other plants. The
lake seemed to offer the most difficult
conditions under which to operate.
Parts of the lake were known TO be
producing mosquito larvae profuSely.
Another determining factor in the
selection of Reedfoot Lake was that. at
that time, experienced personnel from
the Tennessee State Department of
Health were present in Tiptonville, near
by making a study of the mosquito life
of West Tennessee and of the asso-
ciated malaria problem"
Similar tests were conducted in other
parts of the country with excellent re-
suits.
