“In th* bulletin cent out by th* legislative committee ot the Federation of District School Boards on February 14, 1123, under tbe beading ‘PoliUcs In th* PubUc Schools.' this

paragraph foUowed:

" The legislative committee desires you to know that * few soe'ety and «lub woman of this auu and New York City era strongl.- sacking to Inject partisan politic* into the public school system of New Jersey. Their reprceenutlvee are appearing at meetings in the Interest of partisan public achool legislation, and insisting that they represent over 100,000 women of th# aute. . . Their special Interact thl* year concerns Bansu Mil 36. shifting tbs appointment of the commissioner ot education from the governor to the aUte board of education; Benste 36. known as the achool census bill, and Benste 27. the oouuty attendance supervisor bill Thssa bills are In the hands of the Senate educational committee and they should stay

there.'

“These eutemenu are untrue. Bills •6, 36 and 37 were Indorsed by the New Jersey Parent-Teacher Association and Mothers' Congress, by the New Jersey Woman's Republican Club; tbe provisions embodied In bills •6 and 87 have btx-n sponsored for year* b» t'.. Buu- Federation of Women's Ciuba. Furthermore. It would be Intsreatlng to the local botrd* to know that these bills were Incorporated as pUnki In th* Republican platform at tl # request et tbs Republican women, "To call these bills partisan t a disingenuous on tbe part of a committee as experienced as the legislative committee of tbe Federation of District School Boards, who era a wars that a bill to be partlsui must be of bsn•fit to ons political party at lb* expanse of another. The** bills are for th* benefit of tbs children ot th* stsl# •ad are without partisan slgnlfloancc. Cite* "F'sgrant Fopsgsr.ds" “The last and most flagrant exam•to of this mlalaadlng propaganda, which th* federation has Indorsed, was the printing and etroalatlog of a report of th* December moating of the Federation of Dlstriot ffshool Boards mad* by Mr. Uvingston at a moating of tbs Patorsoa board of education in I>*o*ab#r 16, 1*33. This report was mainly an attack on the paper read by Mrs Seymour Cromwell at the meeting of the federation and a derone* of the methods which ah* had lueetionsd If tbe aim ot the legislative commute* be* been to Inform th* loiel boards of tbs proceed lug a of tbe Daoonber meeting It would not bare insiflnsd Us circular to th* Intamper ita aad mlalaadlng statements msd* ly Mr. Livingston but would have scludad Uo papor reed by Mr*.

No attempt has been made to obtain the unbiased view of tbe various boards on pending leglslatloa, said Duane E. Mlnard of Boon ton. He offered an amendment to the effect that Instead of censuring th* eommlttee and IU chairman, th* resolution read that It was the sense of the federation that It did not approve the propaganda. Tbs resolution, as amended by Mr. Mlnard, was defeated by SI
