Y., January 18.—Mem- bership and participation in the com- munist party of America was held to be sufficient ground for the discharge of a public school teacher in a decision made public today by Frank B. Gilbert, acting commissioner of education. In dismissing an appeal by Julia D. Pratt from the action of the Buffalo board of education in removing her, the head of the state’s public school sys- tem held that public avowal or support of the principles advocated by an or- ganization like the communist party would show “such a mental and moral condition as to make her unfit as dn instructor of the children of our public schools,” Miss Pratt was a teacher in Buffalo for seventeen years. Charges were pre- ferred against her by the superintendent of schools in February, 1820, and her dismissal by the board of education came the following April, after a hearing. It was charged that the teacher by engag- ing in the.party’s activities had violated her duty as a teacher, “rendering her- self as an unfit person to inculcate the principles of patriotism in the minds and hearts of her pupils” and was “guilty of conduct unbecoming a teacher in the public schools.” It was not shown that the teacher had ever attempted .to teach communisc principles to her pupils and she eventu- ally resigned from the party.
