But confidence in the outlook has so increased, with @ resultant Improvement in buying demand, that not only were these profit taking sales easily absorbed, but many of the staple shares pushed up into new high § for the current forward movement, and in a comparatively large num- ber of instances overnight advanc amounted to two points or more, The large volume of profit taking furnished an excellent test of the market's position and the manner in which it acted could not help but be satisfactory to holders of stocks. Considering the fact that quarterly in- come tax payments are due to-mor- row and that Western institutions have been withdrawing funds for the purpose of financing the crop move- ment, the drop in the renewal rate for call money was considered high- ly significant. It undoubtedly did much to . -ter aggressive bear stock operations, Not only was call money in appreciably larger supply, but there was a distinct relaxation in the market for time money. .

The market continued to have a firm tone in the second bour although many of the speculative shares lost half of their early gains, But rub- ber shares remained decidedly strong, equipments continued in ex- cellent demand and leather, textile and most of the oil shares ruled from good-sized fractions to more than a point above the closing fig- ures of yesterday.

Business continued at an active pace during the noon hour and prices ruled at or within smal fractions of the highs of the day. The sugar situation has long been one of the market's sore spots. For many months past sugar secumties have been sensitive to fluctuations In the price of raw sugar. To-day, however, when it was announced that the price of the raw product had been further reduced by one- quarter of a cent a pound, sugar stocks held firm, There was abundant evidence that in- vestors are shopping in the higher grade industrial issues, the perman- ence of whose dividend payments are regarded with greater con- fidence.

That was allowed months ago, when Mr. Snyder asked for $500,000 for immediate repairs.

Is that true? A. It was "Q."If the fire prevention work was and is required for schools under normal conditions, how much more important must it be when buildings [contain quite one-half or more in excess of the normal?” A. Yes, sir, Q. “I sincerely hope that a resump- |important work may be about without the stimulus brought pre- ,| sented perhaps by some accident, jeither here or elsewhere.” You said ‘that, didn't you? A. That is in the letter, yes, | @. You adhere to it? A. I do, Q. I notice you say: “Why paint and |renovate the interior of a building, when there are essential items of fire prevention work to be performed, which would naturally operate to |safeguard life and lessen fire risk.” |A. That is a question of judgment. Q. The situation becomes more |serious with each day's delay, and then comes an appeal to the Board | of Education to apply to the Board of | Estimate. I will read it: “I would |earnestly recommend that the Board lof Education adopt resolutions for | transmission to the Board of Esti- mate and Apportionment, stating the stern necessity of .prompt action | upon the board’s request for funds to enable the department to under- take immediately fire prevention work that is absolutely necessary if ‘swe are to safeguard properly the) _ lives of the children intrusted to our care.” lieve it is; yes, sir. Q. And I notice elsewhere that you state that if the correction of the vio- |Jations was compelled it would re- sult in the shutting down of a lot of schools. AI meant this, that the Fire Department has the right to close up any premises which !t con- siders unsafe, and we might possibly be confronted with such a decision. Q. How much of the present $250,000 hag been spent? A. None, yet. Some of it is under contract. Q. How much? A. (after consulting papers) About $14,000, Q. Mr, Snyder, have you help enough and money enough to make these buildings safe from fire in cordance with these violation notices? A. We have help enough when the general repairs are out of the way (and they are ngarly out of the way), We have money enough for the mo- ment. When it is spent we mean to ask for more. Q. How far will that $250,000 go? A. With costs constantly changing, it is not possible to say. We will not know until we find out by seeing how much work a quarter of a million dot- lars will buy, Going back to the matter of general repairs and fire prevention, Mr. Sny- der said, after consideration: “There is to-day no school building which can be called ‘unsafe.'" Supt. Ettinger said that in 1902 the part-time situation in New York City of believe we closed the year with about | 39,000 pupils on part time,” he said. “That was due to immigration; the change from the seven-year course of study to the eight-year course of study, and the strict enforcement of the compulsory education law. At that time | was transferred to one of the largest schools in the city. We had 1,000 pupils on part time, Ji should be called short time, really. The regular five-hour school day be- comes @ short day. They called it part time, and part time consisted of using one room for two sets of pupils, two classes. “so I devised a plan which would give htm the same kind of a day, a double session day, as the regular school day, and because I did that it was called a ‘double session plan to replace part time’ in the first report made on that subject, It was an interlocking system, “All the children on part time in those days were children in the first and second year, It was my opinion, as Principal of a school, that four hours were enough for any child in the first year of school life, 1 could just as well have given them five hours. The plan was accepted for purposes of experiment, and it worked, The extended play period seemed to do the children a great deal of good. It made them fresher for the afternoon session.” “My plan simply was a device to take care of congestion, If, for in- | | r ‘ -2165, up .0040, | tion of the carrying out of this most | That is your letter?
