am. who IN especially interested, since
The new work falls under the depart
ment OF public instruction. said
Aside from the great financial
iaNing there viii be other compenHa-
Tory gains. The amount OF work OF
The superintendents OF the districts
viii not be materially increased. and
In no way can the work be considered
IN additional burden. because most OF

The superintendents are located

lance Officers, who shall also be pro-
lation officers With the right kind
u assistance the superintendents are
,oing 10 handle this all important
work."
