HARTFQRD. April 18.—-Some sharp
talk wati'ltrdulged in by senators yes-
terday during, the debate on the bill
~providlng t-tor, support of schools in
‘ towna’hnvina a tax list or less than
$500,000. The attacks were directed
against. the state Board of Education
and more particularly against its se-

criticism or the public school system

further into the matter.
Senator, Briggs called up the bill.

gave. too much power, he said. to thel
State Board and this power virtually?
'l‘his’
man should not have the right to
give approval to or refuse to upprot'c.
of any teacher in the state. He saltl‘
that this secretary had gone himself!
to a superintendent of a school district .
and attempted to drive hint out of hisi
position anti to drive the teachers'
agency out of business. The secretary"
hadtold this superintendent that if he?
did not get his name removed from:
the agency list. he would receive no,
aid from the state. Senator Grant;
said that he believed it was dangerous!
to give one man the power such as
had been exercised in thec. use men~
tloned. The power had been used once
to bad advantage and would or could
be used again under the bill.
Senator Luther jumped to his feet
and said the incident was news to
him. He said no superintendent
should have his name on an» agency
list; such action should not be tolerat-
ed one minute. He explained the bill
which he said to his mind was abso-
lutely just. He also said- that the
scandals in the ‘education of Connec-
ticut children grow out of the fact
that there is no system. There are
no standards for the teachers and a
graduate of an institution is not able
to receive qualification on the value
of an acquired education. The pub
lic schools needs a serious investiga-
tion, declared Senator Luther, and
there is urgent need of reformation in
Certain particulars. The state has a
right to know how its money'is being
spent and whether that money is wise-
ly spent or not He said that it the
state Board was lncompentent he
would be the first to recommend that
the care. of the schools be given to
another board.
In closing he said it was not right
that the expenditure ‘of a. vast, sum
of money be left in the hands of local

After this the bill relating to the
employment, instruction and school
attendance of children. was past-std
with an amendment providing that
school agents shall not make in] tlr.~s

said that while agents may prosecute

in line with school legislation the
house passed a bill concerning sup

address on the-bill and there was con-

alone. Representative Whlton raised
the point that the bill should go to
the committee on appropriations, as

the bill was passed as reported.
