and beneficial way, insists that the
two-year plan falls squarely within
the prohibitory language of the de-
cision of the Supreme Court, namely,
that during that short period this
measure in its present form does inter-
fere with the reserved right Of the
States to control agriculture" The
other view, adopted by friends of the
measure, is that it proposes a do
something as against do-notning
policy; that the general welfare is
served by soil conservation and pre-
vention Of soil erosion, and that the
Supreme Court will so hold.
Moreover, the advocates of the meas
ure point out that the general welfare
Is bound up on the purchasing power
of the farmer, and that any control
OF production is voluntary with the
farmer, involving no duress. and is an
incident to the purposes Of the bill.

DR.. Ballou pointed out that the
system is more than 500 teachers
below the present needs, based upon
the teaching staff of 1926. In the
pending budget 240 additional teach
ers were requested and SIS were al
lowed by the Budget Bureau.
A suggestion also was made that the
board request of Congress the right
to impound moneys received from the
sale of present school property and
spend such funds to replace old build

funds from the sale of school prop
erty goes into the Federal Treasury

by Congress.
Consolidation of all schools for

posed. This would put the crippled

Further suggestions in writing were
invited by the board and all re-
quests will be tabulated for further
study.

APPLE PROSPECTS
IMPROVE SHARPLY
Crop Outlook in South, Central
East and New England Is
Declared Much Better.
Special Dispatch to The Star

Special Dispatch to The Star
MARTINSBURG, w Va, June 90
The apple crop outlook for this year
in the South. Central East, and New
England is much better than last year,
in the opinion of John w. Willen, Of
Brown and Willen, fruit handlers
here, who has just returned from his
annual tour of the principal apple
markets.
The Midwest States. Illinois, Indi-
ana and Ohio, have very short apple
crops, of both early and late varie-
ties, and Midwest dealers expect to be
consistent buyers of apples from this
belt. he reports, while the Mcintosh
apple crop in New England is short
this year, after a big harvest in that
variety last year which filled all New
England markets. New England deal
ers expect to buy from this section
this year, they indicated.
The export situation is not promis-
ing. he found. in New York, talking
with leading exporters and with i'm
porters from England. The British
Isles have a full crop of apples in
prospect, which will curtail the outlet
Of American apples there until the
home crop has been absorbed, while
importers losses in apples last year
we're consistent and will have a de-
terrent effect this season.
