cent portion of the state four-cent
gasoline tax. At present this money
is spent in the counties under the
supervision of the roads commission.
Urged by Commissioners
This change in the present law was
recommended by the county commits
sioners of the state when they met in
joint session recently. The bill was
drawn by a committee of attorneys,
consisting of Carroll Bounds, Sails
bury; James P. Kelly, Towson; David
Sloan, Cumberland; and E. Austin
James, Frederick.
1t also would require the state
roads commission to return machin-
cry purchased by the commission from
the counties, and give incorporated
towns in a county up to ten percent
of the county gasoline tax allotment.
A section of the bill changes the
provision that Baltimore City should
receive 80 percent of the 1 and1s cent
tax revenue to 20 percent. Under the
80 percent now allowed Baltimore re-
ceived 1855, 737.36 in 1884. The reduc-
ton to 20 percent would give the city
$3.50, 491.57.
Death For Kidnappers"
Speaker Emanuel Gorfne presented
seven bills, sponsored by Bernard
Wells, states attorney of Baltimore,

and making other changes in court
procedure. They would broaden the
definition of burglary to include break
ing into any house with intent to COM
nit larceny of $25 under the burglary
statute; allow courts to refuse habeas
corpus writs when the petition and
documents submitted showed the
petitioner would not be entitled to re-
lief; allow a life sentence for criminal
assault; allow Jail sentences for wife
desertion, and cut the maximum
penalty for manslaughter from auto
mobile driving from 10 to three years.
The speaker also presented seven
lbills drawn by the State planning
committee and designed to improve
the tax collections and general fs-
cal conditions of the cities and coun-
ties of the State.
One creates a state advisory debt
board to pass upon any proposal to
incur Indebtedness or borrow funds
submitted by any county, municipal or
public corporation, special district or
political subdivision. 1t would consist
of the members of the State Board of
Public Works, the Attorney General,
Director of Health, chief engineer of
the State Roads Commission and the
State Superintendent of Schools. APP

cisions is provided.

The many new obligations and services assumed by gov ernment as well as the grow ing needs of older activities account for the rise in costs over this period. But it is also true that every year greater demands have been made upon education, with no corresponding increase in the school funds. In short, the public school system has been provided no more funds but has been educating more and more children over a longer and longer period of time.

Growth And Cost Of
 Education

The job of the public schools has almost doubled since 1900. Children enrolled in elementary schools have in- creased from about l5 million to more than 20 million;those in high schools from one-half million to almost seven mill ion. Students in public high CT institutions increased from 91,00O to 496,000. Thus, the elementary school enrolment has increased one and one- third times; the high school enrolment 13 times; and that of other educational institu- tions more than 15 times.
 Not only have more child

ren entered the schools but more children have stayed in school for a longer period. Thus the high school has been growing much faster than the elementary school, Reasons for this trend are found in social, economic, and educa- tional changes. Among these are the force of public opin- ion favoring education rather than work for children, a greater need for adequate and complete schooling, and better enforcement of school attendance and child labor laws.
 From 1926 to 1884 eXpendi- lures by federal, state and local governments, emitting any educational expenditures, increased from nearly eight billion dollars to more than 13 billions. Meanwhile there was no increase in the cost of maintaining our schools, in spite of the fact that enroll ment increased considerably. Even with federal eXpendi- lures eliminated, state and local expenditures for pur- poses other than education have mounted.

ference to my future"
Suddenly saw a good way to
force a quarrel - a quarrel when |
loved him so! Yet it had to be done.
How you can hesitate" said coldly,
"is more than l can imagine. A foreign
title - surely that outweighs any
thing you can get over here. All this
wonderful country, with its power. its
strength, its clean. decent standards"
THE title isn't so valuable as all
thatt' he cried. tits the big, dignified
thing it stands for"
Like marrying for money to keepit
up," l snapped.
'At least Italian noblemen," he said
haughtily, don't allow their women
to 60 tramping all over the country
alone in automobiles, like pack
peddlers!"
They wouldn't be safe doing it over
there" retorted. land what's more,
your women wouldn't have anything
worth selling or know how to sell it if
they did!'
They have some respect for their
mems judgment" he came back
angrily, land don't deliberately ex-
pose themselves to trouble"
why don't you 60 back and marry
a ton of spaghetti wanted to know.
THAT trip to Europe has ruined you.
Why don't you 90 back to your old
home. Omaha, and let some fresh air
blow through the place where your
brain ought to be?"
It's damned independent women
like you" he shouted. that are
running the best things in life! It's
enough to drive any man away"
| laughed harshly. II don't seem to
have been very successful at it so far"
l reminded him. although I've tried
hard enough, heaven knows"
do you really mean thatr' he
asked furiously.
"And l wouldn't marry a - a wop
like you if you we're the last man on
earth. And you are a wop - not an
Italian, just wop. or you couldn't
have travelled over this country and
then talk about considering what you
are going to do in Washington. You'd
kn0tY"
And then before he could retort.
had unlocked the door and fed. But
at that, he did retort, for as the door
slammed behind me. l heard him
shouting something to the effect that
IF you never come back, it will be too
soon"
For an hour walked blindly among
the crowd, heart-sick and shaken.
What, asked myself, was doing all
this for? To keep my word to girl
who hadn't even treated me decently.
And I was running both his life and
mine for a hollow promise - prom
ise the keeping of which was plainly
not going to achieve the purpose for
which it had been given. Mario was
not going to fall into Marcia's arms
just because Id gone away. so why
not write and ask her to release me
from my word?
Comforted by that idea, managed
to get on with the routine of my
business. Chicago, so huge and lavish.
so unlike New York with it's freer
atmosphere and its higher tempo, was
yet like its rival inasmuch as it was a
tremendous market for my firm BY
six o'clock I had only just begun to
scratch the surface of what had to do.
But the blessed necessity for working
had as always cleared my nerves. And
the more l thought of the silly quarrel
l had induced, the more l became
determined to undo it.
Before leaving the Althea Office. l
picked up the phone and called the
Blackstone. 1t was weak and not quite
honest of me, perhaps. but the inn
pulse was irresistible.
Let me speak to Prince Mario di
Rigoni," l said.
