EDUCATORS FAVOR EDUCATIONAL BILL
 FOR FEDERAL AID
Supt. Dowell Confers With Prominent Educators of State Over Coming Leg
 islation for Schools

Montgomery, December 29.-(Special) the federal government in it's offer to assist each state in furthering the cause of education and that the Alabama leg islature should as soon as possible after meeting in Montgomery adopt the yoca- tionaI educational bill is the belief of principals of high schools in the state, as we'll as heads of the various agri- cultural schools. At a conference with State Superintendent of Education Spright Dowell Saturday afternoon late, visiting educational men went on record as be- ing in favor of the proposed educational bill, which must be adopted before the legislature adjourns it's first session.
 Several days ago county superintendents of education went on record as favoring the bill, and Saturday a large number of widely known principals of high schools, and agricultural schools, voted in favor of the bill.
 A tentative bill has been drawn up by Mir. Dowell. It is subject to change, and MT Dowell is anxious to get suggestions from those who are interested in it. The bill is entitled:
 An act to provide for the acceptance of the benefits of an act passed by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, Congress assembled. to provide for the promotion of vocational education, and to provide for the appointment of state board for vocational education. and to provide for the duties thereof: and to make appro- priations for vocational education"
 This bill is considered one of the most important to come before the legisla- ture In order that Alabama may ben eft from the act of Congress the legis- lature must adopt it very soon after converting, and judging from reports at the capitol there has developed little opposition to it.
