OPPOSE REDUCTION INKINDERGARTEN Sixteenth Street Heights Citi- zens Act After Address by Stephen E. Kramer. Resolutions deploring any reduction in the number of kindergarten teachers in Washington schools were adopted last night at a meeting of the Sixteenth Street Heights Citizens’ Association in [ the Northminster Presbyterian Church, The action was taken after Stephen E. Kramer, assistant superintendent of schools, had explained the duties of kindergarten instructors. He pointed out that the present practice is to have two teachers in each of the classes for unusually young students. He was non- committal on whether the House had erred recently in votmf to reduce by half the number kindergarten teachers. One of the principal objections voiced against the reduction was that it would seriously retard the appointment of normal school graduates as teachers. It also was brought out in the discus- sion that the Budget Bureau had ap- | proved the present, system. Officials indicated the matter prob- ably would be brought to the attention | of the Federation of Citizens’ Associa- | | tions.
