Should the next Board Of Public IN

recommendation 81 the veterans even, II
adopted would accomplish but little at
the start The board might strike
Barnes histories from the lit. Follow

ceding boards this action would mean
simply this. No more OF Barnes books
could be- bought but the LOCAL boards
would have to select from the authorized
list.
Possibly, the Board Of Public Irsfruc-

the local boards TO not ALLOW Barnes his
