May we add to this that our repre-
sentative, Clifford G. Mann, had also
taken steps to have the law changed
in the special session. but the De-
cember Interpretation made it UNI
necessary to make the change. This
Interpretation will save over $4,000
annually in supplemental aids for
Pine county schools. We appreciate
the splendid cooperation of both Rep
resentative Clifford G. Mann and Sem
ator C.. Elmer Johnson in this and
other matters.
The new Interpretation simply
means that the supplemental aids will
now also take care of the school tax
delinquency (prorated) provided. OF
course, that the proper levy is made.
the attendance is sufficient, and the
budget is correct to comply with the
new law. The original Interpretation
would have been disastrous to most
of our depressed and tax delinquent
districts, while even some Of the very
financially best Pine county dis
tricts will profit some by the new in
depreciation We shall be glad at any
time to help you figure your state aid
and levy problems for the ensuing
year. See us or write for complete
figures concerning your district. Each
school district case is different. We
will not have time for this extra work
until after June L, as we are now in
the midst of school reports, testing,
visitations and pupil activities. Some
districts can greatly increase their
state aids. Can yours?

standard average. To receive such
marks in school work indicates that
the pupil is above average or SUI
perior. If teachers mark the report
cards correctly, few children will de-
serve A or B marks. The mark Of C
indicates average and up to standard.
Parents should not consider that a
mark of C is a low mark. Parents
should not be too quick to criticise
teacher for marks given. Most teach
ers are very fair and really mark pu-
pills too highly as measured by stan
dard tests.
Supplemental Aids.
In regard to supplemental aids, the
following is a copy of letter recent
ly received by this office from the
state department of education:
Dear Mr.. Gustafson: On behalf of
the Department l want to thank you
for the interest you have shown in i'm
proving the conditions in your county,
as we'll as bringing to our attention
some of the places where the present
state aid laws are inadequate.
II should also like to state that your
interest and that of Senator Johnson
made us more keenly aware of the
necessity of obtaining the interpre-
tation from the Attorney Generals
office which permits the computing
of supplemental aid on the basis Of
the proceeds of the tax levy rather
than the levy itself. 1 believe that
this will be great benefit to many
districts in your county, and we feel
very appreciative of the interest that
both you and Senator Johnson have
evidenced"

Labor Act Said
 Unconstitutional
 By Circuit Court
rRv The Associated P,nesl

CBv The Associated P,neSl
 NEW ORLEANS, June 20. - The Wagner Connery Labor Act. President Roosevelt's new deal for the working man, today was declared unconstitutional by the U. s. Fifth Circuit Court of Ap- peals.
 Bluntly, in a two and one-half page opinion, the court ruled:
 The constitution does not vest in the federal government the power to regulate the relation as such of employer and employee in production or manufacture"
 It was the last major enter prise of the new deal left on the statute books that applied to la bor, and the decision came in the face of labor unrest, particularly on tenant farms of the south and in cola fields.
 The case was brought to the court by the National Labor Re- lations board, seeking an order to compel Jones and Laughlin steel corporation of Aliquppa, Pa, to reinstate several employees it had discharged, allegedly for un- ion activities. National labor board officials in Washington in- dicated the decision would be appealed to the U. s. Supreme Court.
