Heated Controversy Over Smead System at Chase Street School

The Board of Education faces opposition to the Smead heating and ventilation plan for Chase Street School. Critics accuse the group behind the proposal of graft and political manipulation, noting failed attempts to influence Union Labor and Democratic members. A petition urged furnaces for all eighteen rooms, but the Smead plan was not proposed by the Buildings and Repairs Committee. The dispute centers on site choice, cost, and whether the Smead system offers real benefits over stoves and traditional brickwork.
