TEACHERS PAY DELAYED BY
TIE-UP IN FEDERAL COURT

V. o. Gilbert, Superintendent of Pub
lie instruction. said Saturday that
there would be some delay in sending
out the March installment due the
school teachers of the State. The dc
lay is caused by the fact that the esti
mated revenue for the year on which
the per capita is based included money
derived from railroad franchises.
The assessment cases of the rail
road companise are tied up in federal
court and no revenue has been de
rived from this source. The S5OO,0OC
due teachers cannot be paid until the
revenue from this source is collected
or by using part Of the school funds
for next year.
