 THE AGE-HERALD


 Several educational bills carrying the same appropriations as were available this year were passed by the house of representatives Thurs day afternoon. When the first of these measures was taken up 1t was found to contain an additional ap- rropriation contingent upon the four mill tax, which contingent sum was promptly eliminated without objec- ton, and the same thing done in other bills, appropriations being left unchanged.
 The following subjects were cov- cred in appropriations for the next quadrennium:
 University of Alabama, Auburn, and Alabama college at Montevallo, also appropriations for erection, re- pair and equipment of rural school buildings, for promotion of Voca- tional education in agriculture, trade, industries and home economies, and for the executive, supervisory and clerical needs of the state depart ment of education.
 The house also passed bill by Representative Dowdle authorizing county boards of revenue to make appropriations for vocational educa- tion.
 School Law Amended.
 Another bill passed, Mrs. Wilkins amends the existing school law, pro- viding a means for consolidation of town and country school districts. where they are contiguous, providing that the part of the county uhree- mill education tax levied in a town shall be collected by the county tax collector, and making the $2.50 fee nf T1fN ph ;,, stead of obligatory.
 The house passed the bill of Rep resentative Tyler Goodwin, to allow county boards of education to bor- row money to meet debts which have been incurred or may be incurred before October 1, 1923, and to issue interest bearing warrants, therefore, at rate not exceeding six per cent.
 Another measure passed by the house was the bill of Senator Brooks. establishing the machinery for child welfare work in the va rious counties. defining who are de- linquent and neglected children and the relations of juvenile courts to them. The house adopted an amend ment by Representative Ware of Randolph eliminating the section which authorized counties to pay probate judges $25 per month for du- ties under the provisions of the bill.
 The house concurred in the con ference committee report resulting from a disagreement of the two houses on the automobile section of the revenue bill. An attempt by Rep resentative Gains to recall from the senate the bill recently passed, levying a tax on deeds recorded, was defeated, the effort baing sup ported by a majority of those present an voting, but failing to get the four-fifths majority needed to sus- pend the rules.
