F THE members of the Board of Estimate really wished to dis- ] credit of suppress Prof. Moore’s report on the publie school system of New York City they should have known better than to throw it out of the window with shrieks of horror and disgust. Now. fhat the President of the Board of Aldermen, the Comptroller and Borough President have pronounced the Professor's effort a “false, | {maccurate and misleading document,” the printing of which at the city’s expense’ “would be « waste of municipal funds,” the average citizen will begin to believe it must be worth reading. Published it i sure to be at somebody's expense, ami with infinitely more annoyance to ite would-be suppressors than if they had quietly accepted, faced and discussed it. { President Mitchel of the Board of Aldermen ‘ reported to have | declared that “the report contains eo many reflections on the Board | of Estimate without proper evidence to support them that we felt we | could not send it forth with the approval of the Board of Estimate.” Among these.calumnies were euch statements as: “The method by which New York administers its echools is that of the paralyzed | arm. The fiscal authorities of the city seem to hold that the school system is in all respects'a subordinate department of the city govern. | ment. In fact, the schools have been annexed almost as completely to the City Hall es they would have been if the proposed charter had | become the organic law of the city. , = * — The school | tystem of New York is an inbreeding system; there is a fence around | ft. Rarely, very rarely, is a teacher discharged,” etc., etc. In spite of the outcry from the Board, Prof. Moore stands by his | report and begs to repeat that there is a situation in the administra- | tive control of the schools of New York City which is both illegal and ; intolerable. “The work of annexing the schools to the City Fall | goes steadily forward. I¢ is perhaps too much to expect of city off. | ciale that they wil accept and print « report that convicts them of ein.” Whatever the facts about city officials and their sins, the facta | about Prof. Moore are plain enough. Nearly two years ago the Cam- raittee on School Inquiry of the Board of Estimate hired Prof. Paul | H. Hanus of Harvard to direct an exhaustive inquiry into the con- feet of New York public schools. Prof. Hanus advised the com- tufttee to retain Prof. Ernest C. Moore of Yale to investigate the daings of the Board of Education and the local school boards. Prof. Moore has apparently followed his treils “not wisely but too well.” In the view of the city fathers he becomes “inaconrate”’and his atti- tude “extraordinary” the moment he seeks to pry into the sacred | inyeteries of municipal politite. Engaged merely to “criticise,” he | Cares to find fault—and with things that are none of his business! | Prof. Moore may or may not have stepped outside hie field. In eny case, judging from specimens, the public will derive instruction, not to say profit, from the full results of his researches. Perhaps hot wholly without bearing on the present situation is the fact that Yao called Prof. Moore to its department of pedagogy because it admired the way he pitohed into the city government of Los Angelos and forced the city officials to remodel their school system. In any case the plight of the Bonrd of Estimate growling over a bil of $1,800 for a report too horrible to print is a full step from the enblime.

Was there no Way to stop this outrage of common decency? We refuse to believe it. The police in charge of the transfer should be made to anewor for grogn and shocking negligence.
