MANY SCHOOLS UNSAFE. ‘One Condemned Seven Years Ago Still in Use—Parents Keep Pupils Away. Further investigation into the con- @ition of the New York public schools reveals how inadequate the provisions for repair and upkeep have been, When the Building Department of the Board of Education submitted for the 1921 budget total of $7,000,000 needed for foreseen repairs, C. B. J. Snyder, Superintendent, and his as- sistants, had computed this amount to be the lowest possible figure at which the existing schools could be main- fiained. Additions, sites and new buildings were not inclided in this amount. By the time the Board of Esti- mate and other Administration forces had finished with the Board ef Education budget the amount for repairs was cut down to §$2,- 200,000, 30 per cent. of the mini- mum actual needs as estimated by the experts in the Board of Edu- cation. The $27,000,000 cut in the schools appropriation made by the Hylan Administration compelled the children and teachers to re- main in filthy, inadequate schools. scraping a bit below the wirface one finds many peculiar cir- arising from Board o Estimate action. For instance, take what happened to an addition to the Newtown High School, Queens, as set forth in the minutes of the B 1920. LOST $13,000 TRYING TO FORCE LOWER BID. When bids were opened, Oct. 28, 1919, the lowest estimate for general construction was $781,000, submitted by Thomas Dwyer. This was more than the estimated cost of $600,000, so the Board of Education awarded Mr. Dwyer the contract, subject to approval of the Board of Hstimate. ‘The latter board, Nov. 21, 1919, re- fused to approve this bid and recom- mended the work be readvertised, ‘The school authorities, after fur- ther investigation and consultation, decided it would be impossible to gecure a lower bid and reaffirmed its former action on Dec. 10, 1919, and returned the matter to the Board of Estimate which, two days later, again rejected it. Now, to quote minutes: “Readvertised Dee. 30, 1919, bids to open Jan. 12, 1920, “Awarded, Jan. 14, 1920, by the Board of Education, subjec to the approval of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, to Dennis . Connors, the lowest bidder, in the sum of $794,000. Approved by Board ef Bstimate and Apportionment Jan. rd of Estimate, after twice having re. id a $781,000 bid on the theoretical ground it was too far above the $600,000 mated cost, aecepted a $794,- 000 bid for the same work the following month. The city lost $13,000 somewhe! Mr. Snyder in 1919 prepared a chart showing the funds allowed for maintenance of school buildings and the amount needed based on the us 2 per cent. of accumulated costs of Buildings and equipment. In 1918 the 2 per cent. calculation showed the schools ni 525,000 for repairs enly. The Administration provided $1,000,000, which, according to computation on the chart, was ac- tually only a trifle more than $500,- 000, allowing for shrinkage in the purchasing power of the dollar, Conditions even worse in the 1919 budget, for where the needs were rea the appro priation fell o' to $925,000, repre- Sonting. a purchasing power of only $475,000. ; UPILS KEPT OUT OF SCHOOL!

Mrs. Florence Quina of No. 36 West 69th Street was informed to-day of the action of the police of Paris In \ warning her son-in-law, Austin New- ton Chamberiain Bellaris, to prepare himself to submit to arrest unless In- formation is forthcoming as to the whereabouts of his wife and child, who left the maternity hospital at Noullly Monday morning at 1 o'eloek after a telephone call, saying she was going to meet him, Mra. Quinn declined to make any comment on the situation, Accord- Ing to the despatches from Paris, the procedure of the French police seems to be a technical method of checking against the complaint of Bellaris that his wife has been spirited away. He professes to have information from Mra, Aimee Crocker Gouraud that Mrs. Govraud was with his wife at the hospital just before Mrs. Quinn sailed for New York, and Mrs. Bel- laris In Mrs. Gonraud’s presence de- nied her mother’s request that she leave her husband and go to New York. According to Bellaris, his wife ts the hel. to the $50,000,000 estate of her father, a Texan, He say. Se hat set on foot an Investigation to learn whether Mrs, Quinn is really b wife's mother. After accepting service of the po- lice order, Bellaris left Paris for Le Havre, according to the de- spatches, to watch the departure of the liner France, in the belief wife m.y be taken aboard her.
