Members of the board of education and school authorities will go before the House District committee Wednes- day to defend the school estimates for the fiscal year of 1923, and also make an effort to have certain vital jtems eliminated from the original estimates by the Commissioners and the budget ‘bureau restored. The of- ficials indicated today that they are doubtful if the budget goes through Congress without further feduction, and for this reason are depending upon the potential power of the civic organizations to have the budget ap- proved in its present form, if not as originally drafted. Among the items slashed from the original budget of the school board before it was sent to Congress were an appropriation for $30.000 for the creation of a paid corps of substitute teachers; $500 for traveling expenses for the superintendent of schools, $50,000 for the repair and replacement of permanent equipment and $125,000 for text books for high school stu- dents. Appropriations in the bud&t for wiring the schools. for dental clinic_equipment, for fuel, gas and electric light. for contingent expenses, and for text books and other supplies for elementary school pupils also have been_materially cut.
