THE SERVICE SHOP, . BYRON S. ADAMS, Thnree. Supt. Ballo[l Will Accompany Members on Survey to Stop Congestion. ALL BUILDINGS CROWDED Situation in High Schools Be- comes' More Serious—Enroll- ment Increases. Within the next three weeks mem- bers of the board of education, ac- companied by Superintendent of Schools Frank W. Ballou, will make a tour of Washington schools to learn at first hand the conditions existing In the various bulldings as a result of overcrowding. A standing invitation to the board members to joln him on his inspection trip was extended to them by the superintendent at a meet- ing of the board yesterday afternoon, and was accepted. Dr. Ballou told the board that he planned to visit many of the schools and make a personal survey of the buildings, noting the congestion and other undesirable conditions. “It is my aim,” he said, “to visit a good many schools this year as early as possible.” In presenting to the board the en- rollment figures for the first two days of the current scholastic year, Dr. Ba lou emphasized that a large increase this year Is apparent, and that the ongestion problems are intensified The superintendent referred particu- larly to overcrowding in the high schools, pointing out that there is no possible relief for these institutions until February, when the new Eastern High School is expected.to be opened. High School Congestion. Opening of the new Eastern, ho ver, Supt. Ballou declared, will af- ut little relief, as t enrollment of the old Eas and probably will reach 1,100 before November. The new building wil accommodate 1,500, he said, legvin accommodations for only 400 addi- tional students. Despite the annual growth in the high school student bodies, the su- perintendent explained, there have been no additional high school accom- modations since Central and Dunbar were opened. The pay of six teachers was or- dered reduced by the board on recom- mendation of Dr. Ballou. cases the $210 bonu pay were withheld, | instances the bonus was wi IBallou told the board that these teachers had received unsatisfactory ratings over a five-vear period. and expressed the belief that teachers whose ratings last year were poor ought to be dismlissed. Although no action was ken to dismiss such_teachers, several mem- bers of the board indicated that, in their opinion, this course should be followed. Dr. Abram Simon, presi- dent of the board, suggested that such is the vie: members of Congress who have interested themselves in the affairs of the schools. “We ought not to be continuing in the service teachers who last year were rated unsatifacto said” Dr. Ballou. “It is not fair to the ch dren. The superintendent also pointed out that a number of teach- ers now on probationary tenure will not be recommended for permanent appointment at the end of their pre ent probationary year, because they are giving unsatisfactory service. Dental Clinic Moved. Transter of the dental clinic in the Grover Cleveland School to the Henry Polk School was authorized after con- siderable discussion. Dr. Ballou called the board's attention to a _communi- cation from District Health Officer Willlam C. Fowler, recommending that the clinic at the Cleveland School, which was recently turned over to the colored school system, be placed in the Thomson School. *Voicing his objection to Dr. Fow er's recommendation, Supt. Ballou said that the Thomson School is now being utilized to its full capacity and that at the Henry Polk the- clinic would best serve the pupils it served at the Cleveland. “To put another activity in the Thomson.” declared the superintendent, “would be un- wise.” in sever: Night School Plans. Opening. of the night schools Mon- day, October 2, was ordered by the board. Plans for the operation of these schools are now being made by ‘Walter B. Patterson, director of spe- cial schools. Appointment of Mabel C. Hawes ol the Eastern High School faculty as head of the high school Latin depart- ment was approved by the board on recommendation of the superintend- ent. She succeeds Dr. Wilbur F. Dales, who has retired as head of e department, but is being continued as a teacher. The board was notified by the Com- missioners that 5920 square feet of school property had been acquired Tn the vicinity of the Garrison School at a consideration of $5.920. This prop- erty has been loaned to the school for a playground for some time by its former owner, and the boaTd directed ! that a letter of thanks be sent him.

Numerous pleas for per- mission to increase rents are there- fore reaching the commission from day to day. Complaints from tenants Wwho had been “ordered” to pay heavier rents or vacate are said to be few in number, tioned reason. Tenants against whom complaints ihave been filed by landlords generally for the aforemen- are answering the complaints before the commission with protests, how ever. One of the more recent in- stances in this connection is that of the Bradford apartment house, 1800 street northw. on which Azreal Furr, owner, has requested permission to - raise rents. Formal answers in writing were filed today by eight tenants affected, all of them asserting that any increase would be ex- horbitant, and some of them indicat- ing that they believed they are pay ing too much now.

An attempt will be made to have a public bulldings bill, carrying an ap- propriation of $80,000,000 to $100,000,- 000, enacted at the December session of Congress. Representative John W. Langley, Kentucky, chairman of the House public buildings and grounds committee, and Representative Frank Clark, Florida, ranking democrat on the committee, told President Harding yesterday. The last omnibus bill au- thorizing construction of post offices and other federal bulldings was pass- ed in 1913. — T. Edwards, who declares he paid $40 for his apartment in January, 1917, is paying $60 now and has been asked to pay $76 a month.
