CHICAGO DOUBTS SCHOOL COLLAPSE Reduction of Basic Pay Be- lieved Inevitable Under Present Conditions. Special Dispatch to The Star. CHICAGO, January 28 (NANA)— Predictions before a congressional com- mittee that Chicago's public school sys- tem would collapse within 30 days if a Federal loan were not made to pay overdue salaries of teachers, must be taken with several pinches of salt. The warning was sounded by a teacher, who, no doubt, spoke vigorously his pardon- able feelings in earnest desire to im- press the authorities at Washington. Reduction in the basic pay of teach- ers seems inevitable in order to achieve a balanced budget. Slashing cuts have been made in all controllable expendi- tures at the instigation of a citizens’ committee which studied the financial condition of local governing bodies, es- timated prospective revenue apd recom- mended, with mandatory tone, maxi- mum budget totals. Needed to Whittle Costs. ‘The Board of Education has had an anxious time whittling down to the maximum allotted it. Failure to do so would mean probable forfeiture of credit with local banking concerns. School tax anticipation warrants would con- tinue to go begging. But, despite this trying situation, which, in its immediate form, repre- sents two years of harassing experience for the board and serious hardship for teachers, Chicago public schools have carried on, and the likelihood is they will eontinue so to do, under difficul- W, but with courage and effective- Ress. Chicago credits its school teachers with a magnificent loyalty. In the be- ginning of the depression, and before they encountered payless pay days, the teachers raised by their own efforts and liberal contributions more than $100,000 to pay for free lunches and provide shoes and other necessities for children of unemployed parents. Since then, unable to give and often in need them- selves, they have stuck to their jobs and served with unfailing devotion. Support Helps Board. ‘That fine support has enabled Super- Intendent of Education Bogan to make encouraging progress in the develop- ment of more progressive methods and higher teaching standards in the sys- tem. The trend of thought and pro- gram in the Chicago school system is toward a larger measure of supervised pupil freedom, less of the predigested type of education, less of regimented thinking, less use of the teacher's men- tal ramrod with which to drive knowl- edge into pupil heads. Inquiry and dis- cussion are invited. Stimulation of thought is a main objective. Last year an experimental Summer school for children was conducted. in which new methods were put to the test. Those that proved of value were adopted for more extended use as op- portunity developed. Research has been carried on with a view to more effectively dealing with children who constitute behavior problems. Chicago now has two public schools for boys who must be given special attention because of truancy or other habits requiring cor- rection—the Moseley and the Mon- tefiore. They have an international reputation for their high efficlency and modern methods. Favors Behavior Study. Supt. Bogan believes the reformatory might become obsolete if & program could be established for behavior prob- lems in their incipiency. Such & pro- gram implies a more intimate relation- ship between school and home, and their better co-operation in the early correction of disturbing tendencies. Chicago has a unique club of edu- cators, representing thinking men in public’ and private schools, academies, colleges and universities. It-has no in- itiation fees, dues, committees, elections or other things common to most clubs; but it meets once a month with unfail- ing regularity during the school year, eats an early dinner and spends two hours in discussion. Supt. Bogan is its perpetual presiding officer, and much of the stimulus that keeps Chicago school men on their toes originates from its sessions.

By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. UPPER MARLBORO, Md., January 28 —Albert Remmer of Hyattsville, one of three civilians who joined four police officers in a raid on a still at Camp Springs, in which a colored man was killed, and who was accused of beating a white man with a blackjack during the raid, was acquitted of assault and battery charges in Police Court yes- terday. Forest Smith, the white man, who was arrested at the still, preferred the charge against Remmer. Judge J. Chew Sheriff dismissed the case, however, when all of the policemen who par- ticipated in the raid said they did not see Remmer beat Smith. The quartet of officers have been held for the action of the grand jury as a result of the fatal shooting of Thomas Pinkney, the colored man found at the still.

The reasons for | and against the establishing of diplo- matic relations, as revealed in a recent 1l of United States Senators pub- | ished in The Evening Star, will be | analyzed and compared. Should pub- lic interest advise it, Dr. Walsh said, | the date of these two lectures dealing with recognition will be advanced. Admission to the lectures will be by School of | Foreign Service. Announcement was made at the School of Law that one of its former | students, Antonio Prince, had been ap- | gtnud treasurer of Rhode Island.

N.A.).—"“The finest city water supply in the world” is the challenge Spokane hurls to any one who wants to dispute that statement. And it is prepared to back up the claim. Not a drop of the water that runs through. the taps in Spokane homes is drewn from an exposed source. All comes from an underground flow, the exact beginning of which is unknown. Some think it comes from Like Pend Oreille, a 60-mile-long body of water ly- ing across the Idaho line to the east of the city. Others say it originates on the west slope of the Rocky Mountains and plunges beneath the surface there. Wherever it starts, it has developed into a huge subterranean river by the time it reaches the city pumping sta- tion, five miles north of the munici- pality. There it flows 65 feet under- ground and only a few feet to the north of the Spokane River, but well under the bed of that stream. Mysteriously Disappears. Not content with its task of provid- ing an inexhaustible flow of pure, cold water through the city wells, dug at that point, it sweeps on in scarcely diminished force under the heart of the city itself, meets a natural rock dam almost beneath the business section, turns to the north and flows under a third more of the city ana then disap- pears to find its outlet nobody knows where. It was back in 1883, two years after its founding. when Spokane was little more than a trading post, that some public spirited citizens put in a pump and water wheel on the river just a step from where the main business sec- tion afterward developed. Tne next year the growing city issued bonds and took u\"fi_r the !}'!w!ln. 2 ‘en years later fear was ex; that the Spokane River, from whnlcr;sl!-l:elg‘ water came, might become contaminated S0 near city homes, and the plant was | moved five miles up the river to its present site.
