At a meeting at the Harrington Hotel the question arose as to whether the group should indorse the Mec~ Cormack bill modifying the red rider. By a large majority the organization decided to stand on outright repeal and requested the Board of Trade to have printed and sent to members of Congress copies of the report com- piled last Winter by a special sub- committee of the group, headed by Paul Lesh. The report found no evidence of communism in the District schools and advocated outright repeal of the rider. The Schools Committee also decided to make an inspection tour of the overcrowded schools here, starting February 24, when they will meet at the Roosevelt High School at 1 p.m. Births Reported.
