K "The work has progressed very
Satisfactorily, and our six coopera-
tive inspectors cannot keep up with

Tucker, chief Of the division of ami

Agriculture, who on Tuesday pres

IN livestock, held at Albany. N. Y.
Both Mr.. Tucker and DR.. J. B. Reidy,

tendance at the conference.
: Mr.. Tucker declared that one rea-
son-probably the principal reason
why Maine live stock owners are SO
willing and anxious to have their cat
tie tested, Is because Maine now has
such n small percentage Of reactors
that she Is able to pay actual mar

DIR. Thomas Tells
Features Federal
Educational Bill

DIR. A. o. Thomas, State commits
sioner Of education. called attention
to the fact Tuesday that the COM
mittee on Education Of Congress has
recommended for passage the por-
ton of the educational bill calling
for a Department of Education with
a secretary in the Presidents cab
met.
The new department, should the
bill become law, will bear the title.
the Department of Education and
Relief" It will take over the pres
ent Bureau of Education, the Fed
eral Board for Vocational Education
and Rehabilitation and health work
now being done by other depart
ments. 1t is in line with the Pres
ident's recommendation and will
give to education direct voice in
the councils of government. The
bill in no manner gives rise to Fed
eral control of education. In fact,
the original bill safeguarded the
autonomy of the State. Should the
recommendation be accepted during
the next session of Congress 1t will
relieve much confusion which now
exists as there are score or more
of departments, bureaus, special
boards and commissions now dealing
with the various phases Of educa-
ton.
The bill is relieved of that por-
ton which provides for federal aid.
Under the provision of the aid
Maine would have paid in to estab-
lish the $100,OOO,0O0 fund about
$3S2,072 and would have received
$500, 091.92 annually, $4S4, O19.92 of
which would be distributed to the
several towns and cities of the State
directly with the State school fund.
The sentiment at Washington as
well as throughout the country
| seems strong for the passage of the
bill in it's recommended form.

months work, July 1. 1928, to Jun
/, 1924, are as follows:

1, 1921 to July /, 1922 there were
tested 50,727 head Of cattle of which
2.53 per cent reacted, and from July
/, 1922 to July /, 1923 there were test
ed 64,749 head of which 1874 per cent
reacted, so you will see that the per-
centage Of condemned animals shows
a very encouraging decrease.
quite naturally the first question
you will want to ask me Is, how
many reactors are you getting on
first tests?' During 1923 our six CO.
operative inspectors applied the test
for the first time to 26,238 cattle
and took out 571 reactors, or 2.1S per
cent.
Then, the next question will prob
ably be, what use are you making of
your accredited veterinarians?'
"There are a few accredited areas,
and great many fully accredited
herds scattered throughout the State,
which we have turned over to them,
and during the past eleven months
the accredited veterinarians have
tested 800 herds containing 7468 cat
tie for reaccreditation and found one
reactor.
II cannot close without acknow-
Lodging the cooperation and assist
ance given by the various county
agents and farm bureau leaders. Sew
eral Of the county agents have con-
Quoted active campaigns in their res
pective counties. and with the assist
ance of their farm bureau leaders,
have lined up the work and furnished
transportation for our inspectors.
They have also arranged with &C
credited veterinarians to carry on the
work in places where a majority of
the cattle owners have received two
free tests. In almost every instance
whefe the work is lined up for them
the accredited veterinarians are will
ing to make special rate for area
