The question of a restraining order was finst broached by the mayor. My posi- tion was that since the mayor had, on the vote of the Council, obtained a legal opinion, for which the city had paid, I con- sidered it proper to inquire as to the outcome, nevertheless I was not in favorm- of such a course. Such an inquiry should not be misconstrued to make it appear that I want a restraining order served on the Board. The School Law is so clear that a child can understand it. Here the powers and duties of the Board are briefly and clearly out- lined. It stipulates that, follow ing an election of a council, the School Board shall prepare their estimates for the year. These are classed as “Ordinary” and “Extra- ordinary.” Ordinary estimates are those having to do with school expenditure in a current way, while extraordinary expendi- tures are those which embrace say a new building, etc. When in January, 1919, the board submitted the estimates for 1919, part of the amount asked for was for extraordinary ex- penses, requisitioned as such. The fact that the board could then make distinction between ordinary and extraordinary ex- penditures is prima facie evl dence that the board was familiar school “law. Estimate Requirements. The Schoo] Law further pro- vides that in submitting estimates for the consideration of the city council, these shall be classified as follows:— A. Site. B. Buildings. CG. Furnishings and equipment. D Alterations and improve- ments: kK, Extraordinary requirements; also that the Council shall con- sider and determine under each class separately, and shall either approve or disapprove, notifying the Board of its decision within a week. The question of a site was voted on and settled. A building was asked for, to cost $150,000, and this was provided for by by- law and passed upon by the pub- lic. No estimates were prepared and presented with regard to furnishings and equipment, nor fom extraordinary requirements.
