School Board Weighs
Instructor Whites
Appeal on Rating

The appeal of Robert A. White, 81,
a manual arts instructor at the
Jefferson Junior High School, that
the unsatisfactory rating given him
by the principal of the school be
changed, was taken under advise
ment by the Board of Educators
Grievance and Complaint Commit
tee yesterday after three hour
hearing.
Hugh S. Smith, principal of the
school, testified that Mr. White had
no control over his students, was
lacking in his teaching methods and
did not have the temperament to
handle the age group of boys who
attended the school.
Records offered by Mr.. Smith
showed that Mr. White, who has
been a teacher in the District school
system since 1924, had been trans
ferred to the Jefferson School in
January, 1914 During the two and
one-half years he served at the
school, his performance ratings were
lower and lower, Mr.. Smith said.
Il never saw the man until he
came to my front door" Mr.. Smith
testified, and had nothing against
him. But it was only in his shop
that we had the terrific breakdown
of morale among the boys. I gave
him more time than all of the other
teachers together in an effort to
help"

by Attorney Henry Gilligan, for

cation, told the committee that IF

u. n. May Reach Vote
On Iran Tomorrow,
Then Consider Spain
By the Asscciotad Pres.


NEW YORK, April % - The
United Nations Security Council
has two major question marks con-
fronting it this week. One is
whether to drop the Russian Iran
ian case now, the other is Franco
Spain.
That is the order the cases are
slated to come up. The Council
will end long Easter weekend re-
cess at pm. tomorrow, with it's
program calling for immediate con-
sideration of the Russian -Iranian
case
On a solution of that problem, at
least for the time being, the IL
delegate world peace agency will
plunge once more into the Spanish
situation.
May Vote Tomorrow.
1t appears there is little more
than formality left to the Iranian
problem unless some delegates
choose to make long addresses to
support their actions. There is a
strong possibility that a vote will
be taken tomorrow
The problem, in brief, is whether
the Council will accede to a Wig
orous demand by Russia that it
drop Iran forthwith from its agenda.
The Iranians have formally with
drawn the complaint against Rus
sia which they lodged in London
last January 18. The Russians have
reported an agreement with Iran
and have demanded that the Coun-
| Gil cease making Iran its business.
But the Council apparently will
sustain its action of April in shelly
ing the case until May 6, at which
time it expects report whether
Russia has completely evacuated
Iran as Russia promised.
On disposition of the latest angle
of the 1ranian case, the Council next
has on its docket the charges by
Poland that Franco Spain is men
ace to world peace and is harboring
Nazi scientists devising new weapons
of war
POland's Request Expected to Lose.
Debate on that issue last week de-
veloped the virtual certainty that
Polands request that the United Ma
tions sever diplomatic relations with
Spain would be beaten. Only four
nationS-Poland, Russia, France and
MeXico-spoke for the proposal;
Brazil, the Netherlands and Great
Britain fatty opposed it; China and
the United States asked to see more
proof that Spain was a menace to
world peace: Egypt did not speak,
and Australia brought forth a COM
promise plan.
Briefly, Australia would appoint a
five man committee from the mem
bers of the Council to examine the
charges, take statements and eVi-
dence from the U. N. and from
Franco Spain and report not later
than May IT on the entire situation.
The date likely would be amended
since the Council did not act on il

u. ). Will Invite Soviet
Editors 10 Study Nation
And Report 10 People
BY the Associated Press

The State Department will extend
to three Russian editors a poten-
tally significant Invitation to take
look at how America works and
thinks and lives in peacetime.
The three-Ilya G. Ehrenburg of
Izvestia. Gen. Mikhail r. Galak-
tionov of Pravda and Konstantin
M. Simonov OF Red Star-came here
to meet with the American Society
of Newspaper Editors.
Their visit was planned by the
newspaper organization to promote
an exchange of ideas between the
day-by-day historians of two of the
worlds greatest powers.
: The Russian writer's gave the
countrys top-ranking news execu-
tives bluntly frank idea of what
they think about this country's
press.
Want Report Taken Home.
Some of it was favorable; some
of it, too, was sharply critical.
That's the kind of a report the
State Department hopes they will
take home to RuSSia-one based
upon a trained newspaperman's S
firSt-hand observations.
So the department-primarily on
the initiative of Secretary of State
Byrnes-conceived the idea of let
ting the three neWspapermen learn
for themselves how the United
States ticks. They will be given a
free hand to see how ready-to-go
machines roll off the production
lines, how people live in big cities
and in small towns, how newspapers
function without government con-
troll, how things are here generally.
No Hint of Acceptance.
Although it was confirmed Off
cially that the invitation will be eX-
tended, there was no indication yet
AS to whether it will be accepted
Here as unofficial ambassadors to
their American colleagues, the three
Soviet neWsmen presumably will
have to await an okay from Moscow.
II they accept 1t Will constitute
another step forward in the en-
deavor jointly pushed by the State
Department, the society and by Kent
Cooper, executive director of the
Associated Press, and Hugh Baillie,
president of the United Press; to
break down the barriers against free
movement of neWsmen and the free
flow of their findings in all parts
of the world.
Although this reason has not been
acknowledged officially, it was
learned State Department officials
consider that the plan might lead, in
time, to reciprocity on the part of
Russia and eventually to relaxation
of Soviet restrictions over move
ment of foreign neWsmen.
