81. Alexandria city Will therefore re-
ceive but $1f2.2S more than the county
from the state funds for school pur-
pose.
According to the new school census
the school population of the city has
decreased considerably in the past five
years. which means a loss of $1,000 an
nually for the city from state funds.
A committee from the chamber Of
commerce recently appeared before the
state board of education and argued
for a recount, they believing recount
would show a considerable increase in
the school population.
This matter is now In the hands of
the state superintendent of public in
struction and the attorney general
with power to act. Their decision is
awaited with interest
