and counter charges growing out OF
the wheat benefits under the domestic
allotment plan. A representative of
Secretary Wallace came out from
Washington last Monday to confer with
Kansas officials, and made the state
ment that wheat payments were being
held up because the wheat farmers as
a whole had Judged" on their state
ments, so that the acreage agreements
actually provide for an increase Of IA
per cent for the State, instead Of the
decrease contemplated by the aIlot-
ment plan
On the other hand, western county
wheat growers complain that the
A. G. r. A. statisticians cut down the
average production figures from three 10
four bushels In the big wheat counties,
so that the growers get about $l.20 an
acre for agreeing to reduce acreage, In
stead Of the $1.89 an acre promised
when the acreage reduction drive was
on. Both sides to the CONTROVERSY are
able to cite individual cases that prove
their claims-but In the meantime the
promised payments are not being made.

Wilmington School Saving.
Actual saving of $242 2,99986 to tax
payers through program of carefully
planned economies in administering and
maintenance Of Wilmington public
schools during the 1933-34 school year,
over the 1892 period, Is revealed In
Of education under the guidance OF
Supt. S. M. Stouffer.
A remarkable feature IS that. due to
sound judgment and expert manage
uent, an adequate program OF educa.
ton is being maintained In the face OF
greatly reduced revenues from both city
and State and greatly increased oper-
ating cost due to rapidly mounting en-
rollment.
In other words, while there has been
a reduction of $159,413.c in income to
the board in the 1933-34 period over
that received in the 1892 period,
there has been an increase in enroll
ment of 992 pupils. This additional en-
rollment will necessitate the ultimate
expenditure before the present year Is
up of $50 .585.92, based upon low hg-
ure of S84.26 per student per year. one
Of the lowest rates in the East in pro-
portion to the faculties and training
opportunities offered by the citys mod
ern school plant.
Low Cost Per Pupil.
The low annual cost per pupil itself
represents an outstanding achievement
in economy and efficiency by the local
school authorities. =.
Exercise of economy in management,
according to school officials, Is respon..
sible for about one-half Of the total
savings thus made possible. while the
other half is due to reduction IN sala-
ries which went into effect January /,
last.
