Alaska And Nevada
 Divide Honors Cost
 Maintaining Schools

Figures compiled by the research division of the National Education Association for the school year of 1925-26 indicate that Alaska eX- pended more for each day school ing for the pupils enrolled in her schools than any other common wealth of the United States The The Alaska School Bulletin says that in the matter of current ex- penses per pupil in average daily attendance the situation is rever- sed with Nevada in first place and Alaska in second rank. Wyoming ranked third in both comparisons. Expenses per pupil in average daily attendance are as follows for the three commonwealths:
 Nevada, $13701; Alaska S134.94; Wyoming, $12665.
 That the cost of schools is rela- lively high in sparsely settled states and territories is indicated from the fact that the three above mentioned have a low average daily attendance of the 57 political divisions listed, excluding Amer ican Samoa, Guam and the Virgin Islands.

controversial measures was completed
when the senate adopted conferences

the senate and house were adjusted.
With this over, speculation was re-

Speaker LOngworth attach their sig

huge revolving fund to aid farmers
in marketing their crops, still car

fee. and for this reason there appear
ed 10 be little doubt at the capitol
that the measure again would fail
of executive approval.
This fee. which would be levied
against grower of certain commodi-
ties to assist in stabilizing market
conditions when SURPRISES exist. has
been held unconstitutional by Attor-
ney General Sargent, and while u
would not be resorted to in the pres
ent bill until other provisions had
failed to meet requirements, IL still
is believed to be unacceptable at the
White House. Leading hackers Of
the measure, however. have hoped
that because Of the alternative pro-
vided before application of the fee,
the president would sign il as the
best obtainable legislation at this
time.
The fate Of the shipping bill also
was in doubt today, although most Of
the leaders believed the president
would approve il. This measure au-

CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind, Feb.
10.-Police authorities are search
ing for a modern cattle rustler, bold
as any of his western prototypes
in pioneer days, who stole five steers
from a pasture on the farm of
Clark Sutherlin, near Roachdale,
drove them sixteen miles in the
night to Charlottesville, disposed of
them for 1899 and disappeared be-
fore the owner missed them. The
steers were in herd Of thirty -four
owned by Sutherlin and pastured
along a highway that runs past his
farm.
The rustler, alleged to be a man
who formerly lived in this COM
munity, sold the cattle at the Craw-
louisville shipping yards. AS soon
as he had obtained a check for the
cattle from George Keller, he APP
peared at the Office of Samuel D.
Symmes, county inspector OF
weights and measures, with the
surprising announcement that he
owed Symmes SIS and wished to pay
the debt, many years old. Synlmes
then identified the man as John w.
Watson at bank where the 1899
check was cashed. Synmes received
his S. and the man disappeared.
