The death of Senator Johnston

cessor to Senator ~Johnston's seat can

In an address before the bankers Of

Secretary McAdoo said that the gov
eminent easily could afford such a
move.
The bankers unanimously adopted
a resolution expressing their appre-
citation to President Wilson and Sec
rotary McAdoo for the relief offered.
Secretary McAdoo addressed the
conference for the purpose of explain
ing the provision of the administra-
ton currency bill with regard to the
government 2 per cent bonds. The
secretary repeated the argument he
made two weeks ago, against the con-
tention that the enactment Of the cur
rency bill would in reality impair the
value of the 2 per cents. 1t was Mr..
McAdoo's contention that the value
of the bonds would really be appre-
ciated by the Glass-Owen bill. He
pointed out that the circulation privi-
lege was still to remain with the 2
per cents, while additional privileges
were to be conferred upon the bonds
by the administration bill.

TO GET sl,&44,951
STATE SUPERINTENDENT EVANS
PREPARES slxTY-sEvENTH
ANNUAL APPoRTloNMENT.
IS BASED ON ATTENDANCE
Counties Regarded as Comparatively
Poor Districts Are Great 6enefi-
Charles Under State Aid Law
Others Loce Share.

Jefferson City.-W. P. Evans. state
superintendent of schools, announced
the figures for the sixty-seventh an
nual apportionment. The total is ST.
~6a4,651.22, which will be disbursed to
the public schools of the counties
from the state treasury within the
next few weeks.
The total apportioument Vast year
was $1,804, 070.41, but in that year
there was only $27,7O6.87 that went
out as state aid to weak rural
schools. This year the total for rural
common schools and for high schools,
under the new law, is $235, 000, which
decreases both the grand total for dis
tribution and the per capita for each
child of school age in the state.
This general apportionment is based
upon attendance. Formerly the ap-
portionment was based upon the num-
Der of children of school age. On tcis
basis counties in which there are
schools other than public schools do
not receive as much money as for
merly.
Counties in what are regarded as
comparatively poor districts OF the
state are graa lci,eflciaries under the
state aid law. There are a number of
counties in the central southern and
southwestern parts where the Estate
aid amounts to nearly as much as
the regular school apportionment.
Rich counties, where very little
state aid is asked, are losers in their
share of the funds.
Last year st. Louis received $685.
S34.14, and this year will get $685.
595. 95; Jackson county last year got
$147, 896.22, and this year $146,3S5.28;
and Buchanan county last year, $45,-
O96,3S, and this year $41,414.09.
Barry county under this %apportion.
ment will draw SIS, 846.4G, and in addi-
ton to that will get under the state
aid law a little more than $4,000
Douglas county will draw under this
apportionment ~$S,597.46, and over
$4,000 under the state aid.
