The Law Relating te the Apportion- ment of Meney Between them—Re- ports on Both Sides of the Question. The special committee of the board of school trustees, to which was referred the inquiries of the District Commissioners touching the apportion- ment of the school funds between the white and colored schools, will at the next meeting of the school board submit two reports. ‘The Majority Report, The majority report, after setting forth the va- Tlous acts of Congress relating to the subject, refers to the consolidation of the two boards in 1874, by the District Commissioners, which action left the status of the new board equtvocal; and to the annihilation of the old board by act of Con- ATess Of June 11, 1878, the powers of the old board ing transferred to'the District Commissioners, who are directed to appoint trustees to exercise sneh powers and duttes only as relate “to the care and management of the public schools.” “It will hardly be pretended by the most jealous partt- san,” the report says, “that under the head cf ‘care and management’ of schools; the board of trustees 1s charged with the collection of revenues for their establishment and support, and with the duty of suing the Dis- riet ¢ collected from tne city of Washington or the city of Georgetown.” The report states that no mem- ber of the board ts the spectal representative of the colored or of the white schools, and with the abolition of the separate board, ana the establish- ment of the unitary administration of school airs in the District, all traces of separate nies for colored’ sehools were wiped Congress erected a new financial system covering provisions for the support of all | hools, without regard tocolor. Referring to system’ of specific appropriations, adopted by agress In 1878, and since followed, the report officer, teacher, janitor, building, ppropriatesd for In the itemized estimates. s¥stem So carefully guarded,” the report says, “there ts no room for the loose ¢tatm in behalt of r out, the colored seh Where 13 the money to cone from? To Hlustrate: Congress appropriates $60,400 to erect Ch eMfersou building; thereupon about $20,000 are claimed for the colored schools; 18 this to be deducted from the $69,000, or 1s it to be added to the debt of the District? If the former, the Jefferson butiding carnot be erected; if the latter, every 01 who alas or abets the inerease goes to the penitentiary under the provistons of the 13% section of the act of June 11, 1878." ‘The report holds that the system of separate revenues has no existence in law. From about | 1875 the right of the colored schools to a | separate and proportional revenue appears have been generally —_ disregarded, the observance of It becoming more and more dif? ficult with the raptd development of the higher | grades of white schools and the necessity of an | Inereased expenditure for the maintenance of grades. This difficulty was enhanced by the mntinuance in the District method of book. keeping, of separate accounts of revenues received from Washinzton, Georgetown and the county, and, before 1878, 1t would not have been practica? die, the report Says, to charge the share claimed | tor'colored schools against the ettfes alone. Refer- ence is made to advantages enjoyed by the colored Schools over the white schools in having buildings ervcied especially for thelr use. The report holds that the enforcement of the proportional rule now 1s impracticable. ‘The rule Would compel the abandonment of the present unitary system of administration and would be Fulnotis to the white schools, and 1f those who in- sist on the claim, the report says, “meam that it {s the duty of Congress to appropriate yearly the gross shm necessary to the actual wants of the publle schools, said sum to be apportioned between the white and’ colored schools on the basis of the number of children of school age of the different colors respectively,we answer that such an appor- Uonment would ‘nominally give to the colored Schools a large sum of mouey which they would not need and which would lapse to the Treasury, while it would shut up a large number of white schools and p-obably utterly destroy the white high school grade.” 5 As the bulk of the colored pupils are inthe primary grades the expense Ietdent to their In- struction {8 necessarily much less than for the same nutnber of white pupils, so many of whom are in the grammar grades. In conclusion the re- Port expresses “the fervent hope that no move- ment will be made to revive a rule which, though hecessary in Its tnceptioa, is now repealed in law and obsolet ‘The Minority Report.
