 the recommendations of the state budget
 commission, which worked during the re-

 needed improvement in the public institu-

 Smith, attorney general and a member of the commission.
 Without additional funds the educa-
 tional system will remain as it is; no
 improvements can be made, salaries of ,he teachers-which are lower than other states with smaller wealth than Alabama will remain unchanged, and the inevit- able result will be: Higher taxation.

The in come and excess profits tax is recom- mended as one of the methods of getting I the state out of debt and perfecting a better school system of Alabama The governor in a lengthy statement recently made a strong argument for the bill.

Washington, July 5.-(Special.) )--Senator
 Trammell of Florida thinks that the
 boys who fought the war should receive
 more than the s60 bonus already pro vided.
 He has introduced a bill under the terms of which each soldier will receive in addition to the $6o, s90 for three months service, $6O for four months service, S9O for five months service, $120 for six month service and $50 for seven months and more service.
 This bill would inflict a big burden on the government, but would make Senator Trammell exceedingly popular with the soldiers and their relatives not only of his own but all other states

 The commission has not figured on eventualities. If the legislature refuses to carry out the recommendations of the commission pre-war conditions, so far as salaries of teachers, etc. are concerned. will remain the same.
 The possibility that property will be heavily taxed if the legislature fails to provide more money exists, MT. Smith . said.
 l The legislature will not get the report of the commission until the afternoon or next Tuesday. It probably will go to the i two houses al the same time. It is known ! that the commission has made liberal recommendation for the schools of the state and salaries of clerks, many Of
