NEW YORK.-Fingerprinting Of
public school children is regarded
as a dead issue by the Teachers
Council.
The measure, introduced at a
recent meeting in the form of a
motion will be allowed to drop,
since members of the council feel
that requiring all public school
children to submit to fingerprint-

highly discriminatory.

street, who died on Friday morn
ing, July 2, is being mourned
throughout the southwest, where
he spent more than forty-five
years in newspaper work. Born
in Wharton, Tex, Mr. Baughman
began his newspaper career before
he was 20 as an apprentice in a
white print shop at Victoria, Tex.
After leaving the white shop, he
established the Victoria Guide,
which he edited and managed for
twenty years. In 1916 he left
Texas and went to Topeka, Kan,
and became associated with the
late Nick Chiles on the old Topeka
Plaindealer. Two years later he
came to Tulsa and was first as
sociated with the Tulsa Star until
1921, when the Oklahoma Eagle
was born in a tent. In the II
years since it's establishment, The
Eagle has grown steadily, until
it's crowning recognition came just
before the EDITORS death, when it
ranked eighth among all the
colored newspapers of the country
in publishing pictures Of the Joe

among papers of the country in
space devoted to the event.

tBv The Assoclated .oressl

fBy The aSSoclatcd -oreSsl
 WASHINGTON, April 22-Con gressional leaders agreed today that President Roosevelt's econ- omy plea may force a postpone ment of major farm legislation, including tenancy aids, crop in- surance, and even normal gran ary, because of unavailable funds to support the plans.
 Administration officials said that the pace which business sets during the next few months will show whether new taxes will be needed.
 Hoping to speed activity, in crease the flow of tax revenues and remove the necessity for more taxes on business which are more than ten percent above last year, Secretary of Commerce Roper said industry was still long way from full production.
