Protesting Citizens
Quiz Board on Lack
Of School Facilities
By james 6. Deone


Some District citizens tried to
find cut last night why the city
can't get the school facilities it
needs -
They put the question to the
Board Of Education at a session
held to explain school budget
cuts Board members kicked the
ball to the Commissioners and
Congress. but Supt. Hobart M.
Corning said citizens could help
do something about 1t by back
ing the city's proposed borrow
ing program
The school board calls a meet
ing annually to explain what has
happened to school budget re-
quests. About SIS persons, mostly
representing civic groups. turned
out for the Thomson School ses-
sion last night.
Some of the citizens were
peeved that the school authori-
ties wouldn't go beyond outlining
the cuts. A number questioned
why other projects hadn't been
asked for, and seemed annoyed
when DR. Corning and the board
members wouldn't answer.
Secret Procedure Hit.
But the main fire was directed
at the Commissioners and at the
secret budget procedure in which
cuts are made.

the Takoma Elementary School

critics. He and another associa-
ton member came to protest de-

for Takoma and other grade
schools.
Mr.. Penn protested Indignantly
that the budget report presented
by DR.. Corning was a "fait
accompli."
What can we do to prevent
the Commissioners from taking
capricious action?" he asked.
Mr.. Penn also attacked a de-
fenSe of the Commissioners by
DR.. Corning. who said the city
heads were bound by overall
financial restrictions and really
shouldn't be blamed for making
cuts.
why apologize for the Com
missioners cutting down the
boards Recommendations" in
quired Mr.. Penn.
Robert r. Faulkner, who pre-
sided, frequently emphasized
that the Commissioners were re-
sponsible for the cuts, despite
DR.. Corning's statement.
Explanation Demanded.
When a citizen complained
about one deletion and asked
for an explanation. Mr.. Faulkner
said the Commissioners "appar-
emily don't advise us-maybe we
should complain, too."
At another point, a suggestion
was made to have a representa-
tive Of the Commissioners at
tend school board sessions like
last nights. To this Mr.. Faulk-
per replied:
IT don't know whether they'll
come"
Mrs. Doris Foster, of the Amer
leans for Democratic Action,
complained about what she
termed a missing link in the
school boards own budgeting
process. Citizens make requests
to the board a year ahead and
later they hear about what has
happened to them, she pointed
out.
Priorities Unexplained.
The school officials gave no
explicit answer to questions on
how priorities are set for new
buildings.
Mr.. Faulkner and the super
intendent urged citizens to go to
congressional hearings with their
requests for restoring deleted
