ON SCHOOL BONDS fi
Finance Committee Makes Rec
ommendations to Float
Loan
WOULD START WORK IN OCT.
The Finance Committer of the Hoard
of Kducation at n meeting nt noon to
dav decided to offer n higher rate of
interest than " per cent, if such n
plan is leeal. to assure tho floating 'if
n S2.000.000 bond issue, to begin the
Sfi.non.OOO building program.
If former Judge Theodore Jenkins
tlie Hoard's attorney, declares the plan
legnl and the issue Is nuthnrlzed by the
Hoard of Kducation nt tlie September
meeting, bonds will lip issued benr'ng
interest at the rate of f, 5V nntl 5l
per cent, nnd work wi'l probably be
commenced on four or five new school
buildings in October.
The flexible rate of interest was pro
posed because nf present market condi
tions nnd the recent city loon, the mem
bers of the Finance Committee express
ing the belief Hint it would be difficult
to float n ffiJ.OOO.OOO bond issue nt the
flat rate of !" per cent.
The committee also proposed n fund
ing provision, which would ennble the
Hoard of Kducation to buy ln tlie Issue
nrovided the money market is restored
tn normal nnd rVj per cent should prove
too high nn interest rate.
Whether this proposal Is carried out
depends on the opinion of former Judge
Jenkins nnd the authorization of tlie
Hoard of Kducation.
Still another proposal, the legality of
which will be put up to Mr. Jenkins, is
to issue the bonds serially, so that part
of tlie Issue will mature each year, be
ginning one year ufter their Issuance.
If former Judge Jenkins declines the
rmposnis Illegal a special meeting of the
Finance Committee will be called within
the next few days to tlevlse other plans
for floating the loan, so that autliori'a
tion may be given by the board at its
September meeting.
Should tlie board authorize the float
ing of the loan at its September inert -Ins
three weeks would be required in
ndveitlslns for bills. If the loan is sue
cessfully floated work could be started
immediately on four or live buildings,
in 'biding junior high schools. Stverui
new sites for buildings mny also b"
purchased.

"Since writing you before I have done
a lot of observing, but have not changed
my mind. I know that I am right.
Silk storlcings ami Huffy -ruffle suits of

STATE LEGISLATURE
Hylan Objects to Law Increas
ing Pay of Public School
Teachers
ADMITS RISE WAS PROPER
Hy the Associated Press
New York, Aug. 10. Mayor John F.
Hylan. who resumed the witness stand
today nJ tlie second public hearing of
the legislative committee investigating
his administration, nttarked the State
Legislature for "legislation telling tiie
people of New York City how to spend
their money."
Tlie Mayor objected to legisintion
which had required nn annual incrense
of thousands of dollars In the pay of
New York City school teachers. He
said, however, under relentless ques
tioning, that he believed tlie Increases
proper. "I do not object to the figures
of nnvbody's wages," he said, "but I
do object to the wages being fixed ut
Albany by mandatory legislation."
Klon H. Hi own. the comnilttco's
counsel, asked the Mayor if he regarded
education as n State function.
"Some State authorities," replied
Mr, Hylan, "have regarded it ns a
State function in every posaiblc way
save paying the bills " Later he siibl
he "supposed education was regarded
an a State function in nil other cities."
After considrrnblc wrangling tlie
Mayor snld tho city would have given
the teachers as largo a rise ns the Leg
is'ature sranted them. He persisted,
however, in criticizing the Legislature
for fofcins the city to go over tlie debt
limit, nnd repeatedly snld he could not
be expected to be conversant with de
tails of the city's vnrlous debts,, nnd
funds
At the opening of tho hearing Mr.
Hrovvn apologized to (lie committee for
using tho term "blood money" yester
day in refcronco to what the city paid
for loans to meet its pressing tempo
rary debts ln 1A14. He, said the banks
had saved the city by charging n lower
into for the loan than private borrow
ers could procure.
The Mayor declined to give nny defi
nite answers to oneitlons concerning
tlie huge debts of the city and its tr
mentions expenditures. "I thiuk bo,'
was liis usual reply.
"I presume the figures nre correct,"
he said, when told that the debt had
increased .r.I,000,000.
