State School
Fund Received
$296. 406 Primory
Monies Received

OSchool officials throughout the
county received vouchers by
mail yesterday for a total of
$286, 400 in the first of two pay
ments of state aid through the
Primary School Fund. This Is
the earliest that the schools have
ever received the state funds.
The lis school districts will
receive checks as soon as they
return the signed vouchers to
Lansing, according to County
Treasurer Carl B. Brandenburg.
On the basis of the last school
census which set the county's
school population at 80, 934 child
rem, the payment represents a
gift of SO per child to the
schools.
In previous years, State Prim-
airy payments have been paid in
several small! installments that
stretched on. over the school
year. This year, however, Bran
denburg said, the state has decid-
ed on a policy of paying the
school aid in two installments,
with the first being made at the
beginning of the school year.
The next lnstallment Is ex-
pected to be paid in December
and it will total $98.802.
Mount Clemens public schools
will receive the largest single
amount in The first payment
when a check for $43,731 is re-
ceived. Warren township No. 5
will get $32 778; Erin township
No. 2, $22, 1888; No. S, $19,836;

about as good ss men at picking

While many of the women are
laying aside housework on their
own farms and going into the
fields with their husbands, the
department SAID that in other
cases the so-called weaker sex
is seeking jobs on outside farms.
The rural labor situation is
"acute now" a spokesman for

and probably will be worse
next year if conditions remain as
they are now"
He pointed to a federal-state

monwealth showing $4,000
workers were needed for har-
vesting.
with large numbers of farm
laborers, as well as students and
migratory workers who former
ly were available for harvest
work, attracted to defense in
dustries, the agricultural labor
situation is critical" the survey
reported.
In the rich eastern Pennsyl-
vania bean-growing belt, 100000
cases of beans were lost because
the farmer couldn't get help, the
department said, adding:
With the harvest of late
crops, spinach, celery, carrots,
beets and tomatoes, coming on,
farmers are wondering how
they're going to get workers.
'They had hoped to get some
from the Civilian Conservation
Corps but it's hardly likely that
many boys will volunteer. While
they did farm work they would
lose benefits-such as health and
life insurance--which is valued
at about $62 a month. The farm
ers couldn't pay that much"

ters here believed no effort
would be made to intercept the

PROTEST APPARENT
Although the State Depart
ment never has confirmed that
Japan had lodged representa-
tons against the oil shipments,
it is conceded that Admiral Kich-
isaburo Nomura, the japanese
Ambassador, probably mentined
the question in talks with Sec
rotary Hull.
If the question was raised, it
was said in informed quarters,
Secretary Hull in all probability
informed the Ambassador that
the United States still maintains
the policy Of freedom of the seas
and any interference with Amer
lean shipping would be consider
ed on that basis.
AS an alternative method of
stopping shipments of war sup
plies to the Soviet, the japanese
cabinet is reported to be consid-
ering a proposal to close the
waters around Japan by declar-
ing q safety zone" through
which foreign vessels would be
allowed to pass only by japanese
permission.
The safety zone" proposal
was modelled, it was reported,
on the 12-mile zone ground the
United States in prohibition days
designed to prevent -'um-runners
from landing cargoes of contra
band liquor, and the Inter Amer
lean safety zone" drawn to pre-
vent belligerent action in waters
near the American continents.

machinery of the act. The law pro-
vides no power to enforce the
boards findings, the theory being
that public opinion would enforce
compliance.
Railroads Offer Plan.
Nineteen unions representing $780,
900 operating employees and 100000
have voted to strike
to enforce their demands. The op-
Grating workers want 80 per cent
more pay; the lowest paid of these
now receive $506 a day. The nom
operating want 30 to "a cents an
hour more; present minima are 35
cents for semi-skilled and IS cents
for highly skilled work.
During the hearings the rail-
roads offered a plan of emergency
compensation which would increase
by 6 per cent earnings up to $50
a week or S65 on semi-monthly pay
rolls, effective November l, and
would amount to $95,004 900 if ef-
fective a year.
This proposal was described by
one union chieftain as deceptive in
its operation and unsound as
means of adjusting wage rates."
Principal Arguments.

Management-The demanded in
creases would cost pproximately
5000, 100000 a year, are 'unWarrant-
