Anglo-U. 5. Board Urged
To Promote Better Relations

The creation of combined (An-
glo-American) economic informa-
ton board to supply accurate trade
and commercial data and to scotch
untruths detrimental to relations
between the United States and
Great Britain was proposed today by
Philip D. Reed, chairman of the
board Of the General Electric Co.
and until recently chief of the Unit
ed States Mission for Economic At
fairs in London.
Writing in the current issue Of
the American magazine, Mr.. Reed
denied many current rumors about
alleged British misuse of lease-lend
and unfair dealings to improve Eng
lands position in postwar trade at
the expense of the United States.
Such unfounded reports, he said,
were dangerous, not only to the war
effort, but to future peace.
The board Mr.. Reed proposes
would consist of outstanding Ameri-
cans and Britons, not active in poll
tics, who would be appointed by the
President and Prime Minister. Of
fees stated by statistical experts
would be set up in London and
Washington.
Il believe" Mr.. Reed continued,
a simple, compact organization OF
this kind, headed by men of un-
questioned standing. would pay
enormous dividends in Anglo-Amer-

Capt. John P. Collins
10 Succeed T.. ). Hari
As Head Of Eastern

Charles 5. Hart, principal OF
Eastern High School since 1918, has
retired at the age of 10 with COM
mendation from the Board of Edu-
cation.
The board, at its meeting yester-
day, appointed Capt. John Jaul Col
Inns, U, S. M. c.. former principal OF
Anacostia High School, to succeed
Mr.. Hart. Mr.. Collins will leave the
Marine Corps this month after
three years active duty, % months
of it overseas with military govern
ment units on captured Pacific
islands.
The board also retired, at the age
of 10, Henry w. Draper, supervising
principal of the first division of
elementary schools for 18 years, and
Francis A. Woodward, principal of
Gordon Junior High School for II
years.
Miss Gantley Retires.
! Miss Helen Gantley. principal of
Ben Murch Elementary School, was
retired because of i'll health.
The only one of these three posi-
tions Immediately filled was that of
supervising principal of the first
division, to which Mrs. Ruth K.
Webb, now in charge of the Trues-
dell Laboratory School of Wilson
Teachers College, was appointed.
The citation of Mr.. Hart, read by
DR.. Robert A. Maurer, vice president
of the board, was one of the longest
and most glowing heard for any en-
ploye in several years. Mr.. Hart
started in the school system as a
teacher in 1896 in the elementary
and later in the high schools. As
principal of Eastern, DR.. Naurer
said, he not only administered the
school in manner recognized as
outstanding, but was a leader in the
educational life of the city.
Lover of Sports.
Mr.. Hart was particularly inter-
ested in sports and in the high
school cadets, DR.. Maurer said. He
was a source of inspiration to thou
sands of students, the citation con-
cluded, and to "see his monument
look about him"
Both Mr.. Draper and Mr.. Wood
ward also were warmly praised by
the board. Mr.. Draper had been
an employe for so years and Mr..
Woodward A.
Board members took under advise
ment plea by Anthony Campanel-
la, now a temporary Spanish teach
er, for reinstatement as a perma-
nent teacher on the ground that he
resigned his former permanent po-
sition to take job with the State
Department in 1914 because he was
discouraged" by school officials
from applying for . wartime leave.
Teachers on Leave Warned.
John H. Wilson, chairman of the
Complaints and Appeals Committee
considering the case, emphasized
that Mr.. Campanella had applied
for leave only on the telephone and
had not submitted the certificates
OF necessity required OF teachers
granted leave to take civilian wa,
jobs.
The board issued a warning to all
teachers now on leave with wal
agencies that further extension OF
these leaves henceforth will not be
granted unless the war agency Ger
titles the employe is irreplaceable
The step is designed to bring back
gradually into the system the EN-.
ployes whose departure has left the
schools in serious" personnel pre-
dicament, DIR. Maurer said.
The board also asked that the
House Committee on Appropriations
replace items removed from the 194f
budget appropriation for replace
ment. of ancient elementary schools
by larger modern schools.
