School Board 10 Seek
$1,000 for Teachers
In Aeronautics
Deficiency Appropriation
Request Hinges on
Authorization Bill

The Commissioners shortly will
have before them q Board OF Edu-
cation request for an $1,000 de-
flciency appropriation to finance
courses in aeronautics in the senior
high schools in the event Congress
passes a pending bill authorizing the
courses.
The pending bill calls for not more
than six teachers to give the aero
nautics courses.
School Board members decided to
seek the deficiency appropriation At
meeting yesterday. The 5000
would cover the salaries for the re-
mainder of the school year of such
teachers as might be appointed. The
authorization bill has the backing OF
the board and the Commissioners.
Completion of the AFRAID protec-
tion plan for the public schools was
announced to the board by Supt.
Frank w. Ballou. who said he is the
deputy warden. His assistant super
intendents will serve as assistant
deputies, being designated to fire.

morale supervision. Through school
channels, the assistant deputies will
work with the school principals who
are the building wardens and will
maintain liaison with the other air.
raid wardens in the area set up un-
der the District Civilian Defense
program.
Jobs Cut School Attendance.
The unexpected decrease in school
enrolment this year despite the de-
fense population influx was officially
explained to board members by DR..
Ballou as due to the large number
who obtained jobs. The superin-
tendent cited a statistical report
from Schools Statistician Boise L.
Bristor that 2,457 students in the
junior and senior highs, who were
expected back this year. failed to
return. At the same time figures
from September, 1910. to last Sep
tember showed 4,703 more work per-
mits granted to children Of school
age than in the previous year. The
permits are issued to students OF
school age under the child labor and
compulsory school regulations.
The board declined to revise Its
rules on maternity leave as request
ed by q teacher at Cardozo High
School. Under present rules a
teacher is granted maternity leave
and on returning is given the first
vacancy available in her grade. The
Cardozo teacher, Mrs. Lois H
Smallwood, asked that the rules be
changed to permit hiring Of tenn
porary teacher to I'LL in during the
absence Of the regular teacher, thus
restoring the original teacher to her
same job. DR.. Ballou objected ia
the plan, as did the members OF
the board.
Truancy Curb Presented.
A 12-point program for reducing
truancy in the colored sections OF
the schools was set forth in . report
by school officials in the colored
divisions. Admitting truancy was
more prevalent than it should be

that Oakie and party of friends

Conference 10 Foster
Home and Community
Gardens Is Called
Wickord and McNutt
To Address Session on
Defense Food Phuse

A campaign to encourage home
and community gardens as a de-
fense measure will be launched at
National Defense Garden Confer
ence here December 10 and 20.
The conference has been called by
Secretary of Agriculture Wickard
and Paul V. McNutt. Federal Sc
clrity administrator, who is director
of defense health and welfare serv-
ices. The campaign is in line with
a Joint recommendation of the
Agriculture Department Garden
Committee and the nutrition sub
committee of the office of defense
health and welfare services.
Warns Against Unsuited Plots.
Although this recommendation
calls for more farm, home, fruit and
community and school gardens, 1t
cautions against converting city
back yards, parks, Fairgrounds or
other land unsuited for the purpose
as in the last war. Better gardening
of land already under cultivation is
stressed.
The conference is expected to at
tract representatives Of national
garden clubs, State extension serv-
ices, the school systems, home gar
den and farm papers and seed and
horticultural trade associations.
Secretary Wickard and MI. McNutt
will be among the speakers.
Sees Other Foods Released.
"Defense gardens will be a vital
part of the food-for- freedom pro-
gram" Secretary Wickard said in
announcing the conference. "Ameri-
can farmers are pledging themselves
TO deliver the largest amount OF
animal protein foods ever pro-
duced in this country in any one
year. The eggs and cheese and
pork they'll produce-and the planes
and tanks our factories are turning
out-will help lick Hitler. The de-
fense garden program will release
a larger amount Of commercially
grown vegetables for helping Brit
ain and for improving the diets Of
people in our industrial centers."
The importance of defense gar
denS for better nutrition cannot be
over emphasized" said Mr.. McNutt.
Fresh vegetables provide many of
the important proteins, vitamins
and minerals essential for good
health"
