BROOKS! STATEMENT. Mr. Brooks was finally permitted to read his report, setting out the various papers and let- ters, bearing upon the question. The cutting down of the appropriation to $390,000 was, he said, a mistake, and caused the present em- barrassments. 'He combatted the idea that the salaries of the lower grade teachers could not be touched, maintaining that it was within. the power of the board to reduce salaries whe! necessary to bring them within the appropri: tion. He read the letter he had received trom the Commissioners, in which they said that there shoul@ be no thought of again vexing Congress with the matter. He showed also that the difference between the anount of salaries.it all teachers received the maximum in their grades, and the amount in case all reeelved the minimum was $58,G00. He said that the board ad suicceeded in establishing a well-equipped High school. The fact that they had to pay $23,000 a year for the High school had in- Greased the average salary. They had to dothe best they could to secure good teachers for the High school. | The average of $670 would have been sufficient under the present appropriation if it were not for the needs of the High school, which was established by the board In response to the demands of the public. MAKING A MOUNTAIN OUT OF A MOLE HILL. Dr. Purvis asked about going to Congress for a deficiency appropriation; the Commissioners seemed to have interdicted such a step. Mr. Curtis said the board had got into a dilemma through tbe best of intentions. Now, itstruck bim, there was nothing for them to do but to prepare the estimates for next year. “You would not abandon the effort to secure this deficlezey?” asked Dr. Parvis. “It is stated in that report,” said Mr, Curtis, referring to Mr. Brooks’ statément “that we are pledged to ask Congress for the deficiency. I do not so undestand it.” Mr. Curtis proceeding said that this was an uniortunate affair but ‘not a calamity, Such things had occurred before in the Dis trict. He remembered when Mr. Cor- coran had advanced money from his private means to pay the teachers of Georgetor He thought they were inaking mountain ofa mole hill. The board bad done the best they could, and he thought it would be more be- coming in the teachers to accept the situation and say nothing more about it. It_was finally voted to print Mr, Brooks’ statement or report in the record. A COMMITTEE TO INVESTIGATE UBIECT. Mr, Baum moved that a special committee of three be appointed to look into the matter of salaries from a legal point of view. He thought many of the teachers had the idea that they had just claims. This committee, he suggested, shoiild consult with the law oiticer of the Dis trict and report next Monday evening. Mr’ Birney thought, in view of the Informa- tion they had trom the Distriet Comralssioners, that the action proposed was unnecessiry to going to Congress for a defi ers nd trustees had prob: wressmen, to Whom they could. talk, gress Was Hot Stibordinate to the District ¢ mnissioners, He thought the deficiency would be voted by Congress.
