Ttii-y decided to rescind their previous action which permitted both Japanese and Chinese t attend school and ask the board nt Its next meeting to adopt a rule which will bor adult Chinamen from securing a free education in Chicago. Tho new rule, which the board is expected to pass, provides that "no adults be admitted unless they are citizens or have Hied their first papers, pa-pers, or expressed an Intention to do so. lu the latter Instance they must file their papers within one month or be excluded from 'further attend-once." attend-once." Although the Chinese are not named nam-ed in the recommendation, the fact that they ore ineligible to citizenship effectually bars them from securing an education.
