would be affected by this cut.
The bill further provides that there

above the salaries paid in 1928 be-
cause of additional experience.
To Limit Supervisors
Another feature of the measure is a
provision that no county is to be re-
quired to employ more than one sup
cruising or helping teacher but the
employment of additional supervis-
ors shall be optional and at county
expense.
The second bill reduces from 60 to
Al cents the amount a county must
levy in order to share in the equali-
cation fund. 1t also provides for in
Guiding in the minimum program the
necessary costs of transporting pu-
pills to public high schools.
A reduction from 81 to 80 cents in

Normals To Charge Tuition .
The fourth act makes it possible
for the board of education to fix uni
form fees and tuition charges at the
state normal schools for white stu
dents.
1t was upon the assumption that
fees would be charged, Senator Mel
vim explained, that the normal school
appropriations were reduced.

gram as recommended in his revised
budget. The program, he said, had
