PLAN TO Get
SCHOOL MONEY
Attorney General Gives 0pin-
ion on the Subject.
spsc.a, to tbs EVENING NEws.

Trenton, Sept. 19.-Attorney Cen
eral Wilson has rendered an opinion
to DR.. w. G. Schauffler, president
of the State Board of Education, sug-
costing a way In which a large part
of the $977,O00, due the public
schools from the railroad taxes of
1911, may be distributed to the
school districts at once. The money
has been retained in the state treas
ury a long time because three rail-
road companies are fighting the as
sessment against them and this re-
ltention has led to a warm controver-
sly between the state school depart
ment and the fiscal department.
The attorney general say that the
state comptroller might reduce the
total railroad valuations in the state
upon which the taxes Of 1911 were
levied, by the amount Of the valua-
ton of the franchise. When this de-
duction has been made the total tax
originally levied against all the rail-
road corporations should be reduced
by the amount of the tax levied
upon the franchises of the New Jer-
sey Junction Railroad Company, the
West Shore Railroad Company and
the Long Dock Railroad Company.
These are the three companies that
are fighting the assessment and the
attorney general points out that the
only part of the assessment in dis
pute Is that levied on the franchises
Of these companies.
Attorney General Wilson declared
that an allotment Of the school mon
eys upon this basis, less, Of course,
the amount due the state and the
amount already distributed, would
be legal. The effect of such a distri-
button would be to send out to the
school districts a certain proportion
of the $4,000 and retaining in the
state treasury a sufficient sum to
protect the state treasurer and the
state comptroller under the law I'M
til the litigated franchise valuations
are determined in the courts. The
attorney general declares that he has
conferred with State Comptroller
Edwards and he is willing to make
such a distribution. The attorneys
of the New Jersey Junction and the
West Shore companies have also
signed a stipulation to this effect.
The attorney general hopes to obtain
a similar stipulation from the long
dock company and If he does the
distribution will be made as soon
thereafter as possible.
