Jefferson City, Mo.-An
opinion by Attorney General
John T. Barker, transmitted to-
day to State Auditor John P.
Gordon, holds that the public
schools Of Missouri are entitled
to ohe-third Of all the revenues
that went into the State Treas
ury for the year ended June 80,
1915, and that the Auditor
should at once make the appor-
tionment on that basis.
The ruling supersedes the pre-
vious opinions of the Attorney
General that the beer, grain, oil
and other inspection taxes Of a
special character are "extraordi-
nary" receipts and not subject
to the appoftionment.
The Attorney General says
that it is q very close question az
to whether the schools are EMIT.

enue but that it will be well to let
