Thirty-three bills, 26 of which car
ry appropriations approximating
$514,000 from the general fund, are
automatically dead, as a result of
the failure of Governor Buck to sign
them by midnight last Thursday
night Bills totaling appropriation Of
S175,000 from the school fund were
also rejected.
Thursday was the last day the
Governor had to sign the measures
before him, since the Constitution
allows him 80 days following sine
die adjournment of the Legislature,
to consider the bills passed. Ali bills
which he did not sign Thursday
were pocket vetoed.

Governor Buck permitted to die was

to provide for Sunday football and
baseball in Wilmington and also to
provide for a separate board of ap-
peals from city assessments in that
city.
Governor Buck in a statement ex-
pressed regret at having to reject
many worthy measures. He pointed
out, however, that the general fund
of the State was unable to stand
the strain of additional expenditures
and that to make further appropri-
ations would increase the deficit
which will confront the State at the
end of the next biennium.
Among the more important ap-
preparation bills which went the
route of the pocket veto were the
following:
$100, 900 for Brandywine Sanator-

said, will depend very largely upon

for a continuation of the furloughs.
"If conditions do not justify aban-

certainly expect that we can at least
reduce it somewhat after the Sep

every employee except in the rural

A DRAMATICALLY melancholy
L N story of Tahiti is John Far
rows Laughter Ends; a novel
which lays its scene in the worlds
most glamorous spot, and then re-
veals the presence of sundry snakes
in the island paradise.
The story tells of two sisters,
Meri and Turea, daughters of a
Tahitian mother and a Chinese IA
ther. They are quite as beautiful,
as laughter loving and as charming
as the traditions would make us
expect; but although they try, they
can not be the care-free Tahitian
maidens the romancerS have de-
scribed
Tahitian romance, says Mr.. Far
row, is pretty apt to have a sordid
side. Beneath it. there is an under
current of profound and impotent
resentment by the natives against
the whites who have forced upon
them a civilization to which they
are not suited. Added to this is
the complication caused by the
presence of a third race-the Chi
neSe.
Meri and Turea are beaten be-
fore they start. They feel them
selves to be Tahitians, they are
sought after by the French and
English youths, and their father
tries to force them into Chinese
marriages.
Meri solves her problem by run
ming off with a species of half-caste
gigolo; Turea, by fleeing with ma
tive fisherman. In neither case is
the tabled romance attainable. 1t
can't be, in the very nature of
things.

CHICAGO SLICES
9 MILLIONS OFF
SCHOOL COSTS
Junior High Schools Are
Abolished in Effort to
Find Paying Basis.
BIZ United Press


CHICAGO, July 49, - The new
DEAL for Chicago schools, hard-h
by the depression, almost was COM
pleted today with announcement by
the board of education of reorgani-
cation plans that. will effect $4,000
600 annual savings.
This. together with S5,000,000 an
nual savings previously effected, will
put the vast metropolitan school
system almost on a paying basis
and will assure some of the city'S
long unpaid teachers better working
conditions during the forthcoming
school year.
The latest card played by the
board Of education in the new deal
called for abandonment of the Junior
high school system, elimination of
approximately 1000 jobs and dis
continuance of the Crane Junior
college.
Similarly. it was decided to sus-
pend textbook purchases temper
arily, reduce kindergarten classes so
per cent, limiting attendance to one
year and restricting it to pupils Of
years old or more, abandon swim
ming pools and reduce expenditures
for physical education, including
adjustment of all athletic coaches.
The savings thus affected will be
added to those brought about by
shortening the school term one
month and changing various operat-
ing methods.
