TALLAHASSEE, Fla, June %.
The General Education Board,
of New York, will be unable to ex-
tend assistance in a survey Of the
educational institutions of Florida,
because of the shortness of the
time.
Edwin S. Dew, of Dade City,
representative in the lower house
Of the legislature, was advised to
that effect by DR.. Frank P. Bach
man, of the board. Mr.. Dew is
chairman of the survey commits
sion appointed by Governor Mar
tin, and introduced the measure in
the legislature providing for the
appropriation of $4,000 for the
survey, and authorizing the en-
ployment of outside help to carry
it out.
The General Education Board
had been asked to assist in the
survey, and had indicated that
such cooperation would be ex-
tended, but at recent meeting de-
eided that sufficient time would not
be found this year to undertake
such an expensive task.
Two things are now open, if the
educational situation of Florida
is TO be improved, Mr.. Dew said,
Governor Martin will either be APP
speaied 10 for a recommendation
to the 1927 session of the legisla-
ture that the appropriation for the
survey be continued for another
year, or an effort will be made to
get the state constitution amend
ed so as to permit certain improve
ments in the educational system.
= meeting of the survey COM
mission will be called within q
short time, Mr.. Dew said, when
the kurvey question will be taken
up and worked out in the best
manner possible.
The proposed survey was for the
purpose Of fully Analysing the
educational situation in Florida,
with recommendation for certain
legislation.

The drills are used, the police say, 10 make small holes in tho dice. which are filed with quicksilver and then the white spots on the dice are rcpaintcd. Thus, the dice while apparently no different than when they were made, become 'loadod" and in the hands of clever manipulators, are said 10 take on unsuual rolling qualities intended 10 work on the financial disadvantage of innocent gamers. A book on dice games was also taken.
