the purpose of which is 20 pro-
vide for the promotion OF vocational
education in the various States. Copies
OF the bill have been received here and
it is generally believed that the bill
has excellent chances Of becoming law

Should the bill become a law Della
ware would eventually receive from the
Federal government $4,000 annually TO
be expended for vocational education.
The appropriations are fixed in the bill
similar to that received under the
Smith-Ieever bill for agricultural eXten-
sion. There would be AN increase annu-
ally until 1924, when the total would
reach $4,000, and remain at that figure
Under this act, the State Board OF Edu-
cation would have charge of the distri-
button of the funds ia cooperation with
the Federal Board for Vocational Edu-
cation, created under the act.
When the appropriations would reach
the maximum amount in 1924, there
would be $4,000 annually under the fol-
lowing three heads
I. Salaries of teachers, supervisors or
directors of agricultural subjects.
,. Salaries OF teachers OF trade and
industrial subjects.
3. Cooperating in preparing teach
ers, supervisors and directors OF agricul-
tural subjects and teachers of trade and
Industrial and home economics subjects.
Under thu act it would be the duty Of
the Federal Board for Vocational Edu-
cation TO make or cause TO have made
studies, investigations, and reports with
particular reference TO their use in aid
iRg the States in the establishment of
vocational schools and GLASSES and IN
giving instruction in agriculture. trades
and industries. commerce and CONNER
cial pursuits and home economics. These
reports shall ginclude agriculture and
agricultural processes and requirement $
upon agricultural workers; trades, in
dustries and apprenticeships, trade ana
industrial requirements upon indus
trial workers. and classification of
industrial processes and pursuits, and
problems of administration of voCa-
tional schools and of courses Of study
and instruction in vocational subjects.
The States win be required to provide
for the schools and equipment where
