VITAL LEGISLATION
OFTEN ONERLOO ED

'H>H !ou "eic ioohIllS over the
last Legislature proceedings did YOU
notice how many fine laws had been
passed in behalf of the farmer, stock
raiser, planter, in the form of appro-
pTlatlons for research along the lines
OF diseases of plants and animals, and
Tor experimental farming? That
eventually means more money. better
farms and a richer country.
But did you also notice the number
o1 fine laws for the benefit Of our
defective children, such as cripplcs,
bind, deaf, truarts, delinquents? Oh,
yes, We have a state school for the
blind and deaf, and feeble minded
and delinquent; but how many state
schools have we for the thousands Of
crippies. for the truant children who
aren't bad enough yet to be sent to the
reform school? How many state
schools have we for sufferers. or for
backward children? There are pri-
rate institutions for every one of
these and mahy other forms Of alb
normality Of subnormality. and pri-
vate concerns are making money out
of the educating of these children who
deserve state training just as much as
the normal child. They are going to
grow up and be good, self-supporting
citizens or parasites, according as
they have or lack the training for
life.
Is our state forging to the front
with laws to help this condition, or
are we letting our private schools in
the larger cities reach those who are
Financially able to atfpnH and leaving
the rest to get along as they may?

Maryland and Virginia Authori-
ties Call in D. c. Men to
Check L6oters.

A plan to break up the gang of
highwaymen who are terrorizing
small postoffices in Maryland and
Virginia and on the outskirts of the
District was discussed at the Post.
office Department today by Rush d.
Simmons, chief of inspectors. and
Frank r. Barclay, directly in charge
of such Investigations.
The postoffice authorities point
out that the gang of mail robbers
must know they will be able to get
only small sums of money and
stamps at the postoffices and state
they are determined to clamp down
on them before they attempt bigger
jobs
It seemed to be the opinion of
some of the inspectors that the gang
liz 'practicing" on the small offices
with q view toward bigger game.
This belief is substantiated by the
fact that all of the jobs in Maryland
and Virginia have been done in prac-
tically the same way, dynamite be-
ing used in all instances.
Washington police have been
called to the assistance of the Prince
Georges county authorities following
the two latest postoffice robberies
early yesterday morning at River
dale and Ashton. The two jobs
netted the highwaymen about $3.50
in stamps and cash.
The bandits are believed to have
started operations at Ashton. about
midway between here and Baltimore.

charge of .nitroglycerin.

Sports Supp'1nt.

Monterrey. Mexico, Aug. IL
Beauty parading," fliKations, heri-
tage of the Spanish colonial days, are
becoming extinct pastimes in Monter-
req, and perhaps even going TO the
moving picture shows on Sunday al
ternoons. The ever-increasing love for
all sorts of outdoor sports on the part
of the youth of this city and now in
growing measure by the young WON
en-, is held accountable for the change.
Some five or six years ago the
boys and girls used tc spend their
holidays at the Alameda, looking at
each other with tender eyes and ex-
changing smiles of intelligence. To-
day in Monterrey, there is hardly n
vacant lot on Sunday afternoon or
any holiday that is no, the scene OF
baseball game. All tie boys play
hall and even the so-called "o.d men"
in the 30s. Golf and tenris are max
ing rapid strides amcLg the people
of this city. Basket ball already has
been granted its documents of natural
ization among the youth Of this north
ern city of Mexico. Gymnastics. fenc-
ing. boxing. swimming, soccer football
and many other sports also hold their
own here.
Encouragement of outdoor sports is
one of the measures Of all Influential
parties here, therefore it is believed
that Monterrey will soon become the
most sport loving city in the republic

TEXAS SCHOOLS
AGAIN IN JEOPARDY,
DECLARES MARRS
Can Operate Only Four
Months on $l2 Appor-
tionment, He Says.

Austin, Tex, Aug. 1.-THE lie Of
Texas free schools is again in jeopardy,
and the public schools of the state will
be able to operate for only foui months
during the coming year on the So per
capita apportionment made Saturday
morning by the board of education,
Superintendent S. NJ, n. Mars said
Saturday afternoon. Superintendent
Mars said that the situation looks us
usually bad due TO the fact that the
schools cannot expect further financial
assistance from the state for the year
unless emergency appropriations are
made by the Legislature.
The board of education me. Friday,
but at that time did not come to n
definite conclusion on the matter of
apportionment. Indications were that
the apportionment would be only SD,
which turned out to be the case at the
meeting Saturday. This apportion-
ment includes the S2,0o0,O0L supple
mental appropriation made by the last
Legislature in the final called session,
but does not include the 81 SOC 600 APP
propriated fo- the coming fiscal year
for rural aid.
A total of $1,5OO,OOO was set aside
by the board to meet the text book
contract let last fall, which is in ac-
cordance with the former decision OF
the board that the book contracts are
legal. This leaves the balLnc, in the
book fund at 100000. The new con.
tracts call for approximately $1,000
600.
Only $4,000 viii! be required out
of the new years school funds for buy
ing books in case the old text book con-
tracts are upheld and the new ones
ruled out, Superintendent Nj said
At present the text book funds SCI
aside cannot be used for other school
purposes.
Another possible source OF revenue
for schools has turned out to b. fals'
hope, as the attorney generals depart
ment will rule that the state motor
vehicle license tax not an occupa'
ton tax, and hence one-fourth of II
should not go to the school fund.
This question was placed before tn,
attorney general a short time ago fol
ruling. The schools of the state
would have received approximately
s., 500, 900 annually in case til ruling
was that the license fee constitutes al
occupation tax. The ruling on thi:
question will be issuei early ;-ext weel
ID was said.
1t is probable that test sui will bt
brought to test the question, as at
torneys are urging Superintendent o.
Education Mars to take this step.

HIGHWAY WORK
in UVALDE COUNTY
PROGRESSING NICELY
Scarcity of Haulers Re-
sponsible for Some
Delay.

Uvalde, Tex, Aug. 1f.-Highway
work in Uvalde county has been pro-
crossing rapidly during the last sew
eral weeks. In roac district No. 2,
west of Sabinal, so per cent of the
earth work and so per cent of the
drainage structures have been COM
pleted. East of Sabinal all of the
drainage structures have been COM
pleted but none of the earth work
has been done. West of the Frio
river in road district No. /, prac-
tically all of the esrthwork,. except
ing around the structures, has been
completed.
The earthwork will be finished
some time in September. On the
Leakey road fair progress is being
made with the gravel work and the
contractor has been making efforts
to obtain more gravel haulers. A
scarcity of haulers on this road has
delaped the work greatly. Good prog
ress is being made on the Rock
springs road. More rock has been
found on this road thsn was expected
and grading has been delayed on this
account, however, arrangements we"t
made last week for an air compressor
and -ock drill and faster progress is
expected after this equipment is added.
Gravel work on this road in preceinc'
No. 1 will not start until after the
grad ig has been completed.
At tile regular meeting of the
county commissioners court which con-
venes August 13 a jury of view will
be appointed TO assess the damages OF
right-of- through the land OF
f. J. Sherman east of this city. Salts
factory arrangements were made with
r. l.. Anderson for the right-of-wa7
through his lands and after damages
have been assessed on Mr.. StOrman's
land. the survey will be started for
Highway No. 3 from Ange switch to
the Uvalde cemetery west OF town.
This will be the next section of High
way No. 3 10 be contracted. The fl
nal section will he from the cemetery
to the county line west of Cline.
Contract for the section from Ange
Switch to the cemetery will probably
be let some time during December as
II will require about three months to
make the surver ard complete the
plans for approval. Topping contracts
on that part of the highway now under
construction will not be let until next
summer or fall as annie time viii be
given the base TO settle firmly before
the work starts on the topping.
