ATTACKS PAONESSA " ONH.S.ATTTTUDE “Day Says Addition Foes Should Be Driven Into Open Mayor A. M. Paonessa and several other members of the city govern- ment were severely criticized for their attitude in holding up the work of construction of a new high school unit in a strong speech made at a meeting of the school board yesterday afternoon by Committee- man William H. Day. Mr. Day declared that the govern- ment of the city of New Britain is | mot an ahsolute monarchy and whether a man is mayor or not he has no right to hold up any matter. “Someone should be driven into the | open and made to show where he | stands,” Mr. Day deel red. i King Tells of Rebuff | The questicn came hbefore the | board when President P. F. King| told of his letter to Finance Board Chairman Edward F. Hall asking that the latter call a meeting of the board and hear.the request of the school committee for funds for a hig" school addition. Seeretary Burr then read Mr. Hall's reply which stated that the mayor favored post- ponement until his szcond inverti- gating committee had concluded its work. Mr. Hall stated it would, net be advisable to go ahead With- out the mayor's sanction. Mr. King said he thought the question should be worked out| harmoniously. He said it was the school board's duty to bring the matter before the board of finance apd taxation and to show the board the need of more accommodations. Until this is done the board has not done its duty. He added he would be, willing to make another attempt to gain a hearing if the board wish- ed him to do so. Committeeman Young said the Poard had spent considerable time | with the commi'tee. of 14, the mayor's first investigating commit- tee, and the committee approved of | the suggestions made. He felt that the school board deserved a hearing and moved that the action of the president in requesting a hearing be approved and that he be requested | to try again. | Would Go to Council 1t was at this point that Com- mitteeman Day made his statements. M- suggested amending the motion | taithe effect that the question be im- miediately brought before the com- men council if favorable action is | made by the finance board. City Not Absolute Monarchy “We can be criticized if we do not do our duty and get this before the property authorities,” Mr. Day said. He added: "I disapprove of the tone of that letter. This is not an absolute monarchy. I don't think any man whether he is mayor has | a right to hold up any matter. I am cxpressing myself as a citizen of this country and a member of this l'dard. Someone should be driven into the open. and made to show vhere he stands. We cooperated with mayor's committee and it approved of our plans. Then he ap- pointed another committee which is made up to a great extent of those who were opposed to our plans or who wanted delay.” :The motion was then voted upon and passed unanimously. It is ex- of the academic bullding. It is used as a class room, but instead of the usual class room desks there are long tables. Persons hurrying to a fire escape would have a short aisle to the extreme right to pass. It would be necessary to go in single file fashion to reach the exit. In conclusion Mr. Le Witt declar- ed that he would not want his cLild attending achool in the class roow or any other child under his care. Following the usual custom the annual report of Supt. 8. H. Holmes was laid on the table for further study. It will be brought up for ac- tion at the next meeting. Finance Committee Chairman L. W. Young of the fi- nance sub committee recommended the purchase of a wsafe for the achool department office to be pur- chased from Adkins Printing Co., at a cost of $296. Thanks Mrs. Vauce A unanimous vote was given a proposul to sead a letter of thanks to Mrs. Robert J. Vance for donat- ing playground equipment to the Robert J. Vance school. High Schools Approved Approval of the Senior school, the Central Junior High school, and ths Nathan Hale Junior High school was given by Franklin Pierce, supervisor of secondary education in the state of Connecti- cut. His letter to Sceretary Henry T. Burr follows: “Mr. Hen Burr, Secretary, chool Committee, 2 Francis Street New Britain, Connecticut. My Dear Mr. Bur “It is my pleasure to inform vou that the Nathan Hale Junior High school, the Central Junior High school, and the w Britain Senior High school, have been recommend- ed for approval to our State Beard of Education for the present school year, “I have been interested in the progress and growth of the second- ary school system in New Britain, I understand plans are under way for an expansion of the high school plant. This expansion is much need- ed and should come as early as pos- sible. “I am particularly interested in the problem of the articuladon of the junior high schools and the high school. This problem is receiv- ing some attention in your city, “I have been gratified with \hu evident good attitude of the teach- ers and pupils in the New Britain schools and with the atmosphere of industry which is apparent. Dr, Ti- gert, our United States Commission- er of Education, visited the Senior High school with me and comment- ed on the interest and attention evi- denced on the part of the pupils in the various classrooms which we visited.

The Illinois Turf association, leader in the investigation, had ex- onerated Jockey C. E. Allen, under whose name the tipster masquerad- ed, and Kenesaw Mountain Landis, commissioner of baseball, was satis- fied with the denials of Manager John J. McGraw of the New York Giants and Rogers Hornsby, pilot of the Boston Braves, that they had no connection with the affair. 8o convinced was the turf body that a tout, who neglected to pay long distance telephone calls, was really active and responsible for the furore that it announced it was pre- pared to offer a reward for his ap- prehension, Calls to McGraw McGraw and Hornsby were drawn into the investigation by the re- ceipt by Allen of a long distance toll bill for $559.07. A letter accom- pdnying the bill informed Allen that his “wife,” Mrs. Catherine Allen, had made the calls from her apartment on the exclusive Chicago “gold coast” during the months of June and July. Among the ealls were denying any knowledge of the calls. Both said they were net interested in horse racing tips and that they did not know Allen. 2 Col. Matt Winn, ruling spirit in the Illinois Turf association. said he t felt it was time jockeys were pre- tected from fakers who used . the |th® Jockey’s names for tipping service. “We will make every effort to ap- prehend this impostor or impostors,” Winn said, “and we will give & re- ward for their arrest.” ‘ BRIAND GOES T0 GENEYA Minister Returning Comfident Over Outcome of Nogotiations With Gormany Concerning Evacuation. Paris, Sept. 156 UP—Full of con- fidence as to the outcome of ne- gotiations “with Germany over the evacuation of the Rhineland, For- cign Minister Briand will return to Geneva tonight. He ia encouraged by the unanimous approval his col- leagues in the . cabinet gave him when he explained the situation, what had been done and what he proposed to do. Excelsior this morning quoted M. Briand as saying: “The conversa. tions s0 far have been much more cordial than people imagine. They will be resumed Sunday and T am firm in the conviction that they will develop in a favorable sense for all the world and for the cause of peace. “There is no reason why necessary efforts for reciprocal understanding and goodwill may not be made by one side and the other.

Committceman Young took the floor and said the committee was dping the best it could for the city in a financial way. He asRed if there was a body of executives who could or would make a survey of achool property in the city. He sug- gested that someone take that mat- ter up with the state board of edu- cation. It was voted to allow the president to make arrangements with the state board to survey the sehool property if such service could be secured without cost.
