culture, are actually paid by the gen

which are provided by John D. Rookie
Teller, Senator Kenyon has camped on
the general education boards trail and
insists on It's complete separation from
governmental partnership.
Senator Kenyon will introduce bill

Ter was setting out 70 contro! public

including over s2,561,Qoo OF Colorado

light into a sort Of copaTrnership
other corporations. Senator Ken
said: Just think, the government
he United States, thru It's agricul-
u department. IS copartner with

Of the japanese government.
Fear Of Japan.
Perhaps this is one reason why TIL:

of such bonds by the general educa
ton board which is incorporated un.

This board is also holdin: bonds o.
nearly every railroad in the United
States and this Of course makes tn:
United States government q partner
by reason Of the fact that its depart
ment Of agriculture is accepting funds

which holds these stocks snd bonds

why the government in WASHINGTON
