the fact that it contains a good
many loop holes through which

by educational authorities, includ-
ing officials of the state and At
lanta school departments, as a
step in the right direction and one
which will eventually dead to Il
thoroughgoing law as good as

The law provides that children
between the agesaoF eight and

The local school authorities are
empowered to pass upon the VAL
