ANNE ARUNDEL'S STAND
ON TRUENCY REPEATER
Much Interest Taken Here in the Fight
OF Senator Speicher To Repeal
The Compulsory Educa-
ton Law.

When the really big fight of oratory
and voting comes in the House of Dele
gates upon the proposition of passing
or killing Senator Speicher's bill TO re-
peal the law providing for compulsory
education it is now indicated that
Anne Arundel's Delegation will be
found lined up on the negative side
of the proposition There is in this
county. as in some of the other coun-
ties of the State, some opposition to
the system of truant officers and COM
pulsory education, but on the whole
the sentiment here favors the reten-
tion of the present system The fig
ures on file at the Office of County
School Superintendent George Fox
show that under the compulsory plan
there has been a marked increase in
the attendance of school children and
a corresponding reduction in the per
capita cost of educating the youth of
the county
1t may be said quite frankly that
those in the county who have opinions
upon this subject either for or against
the repeal of the law, should get in
touch with their Senator and repre-
sentatives and give these officials the
benefit of knowledge of what is want
ed by their constituents
