What w ent On
In Legislature


A recent act of the legislature
calls for state aid for school bus
transportation to the amount OF
five hundred thousand dollars an
nually. Distribution Of this mon
ey among the one hundred coun
tics will mean that local author
tiles will receive for the 1942-43
session the total of. $2715. Ac-
cording to the superintendent of
schools here, one-half of the to-
tai amount of $50O.OO0 will be
prorated and paid to the counties
in the proportion that the total
sum OF miles traVeed by the
school buses while transporting
pupils to and from public schools
at public expense in each county
during the preceding year bears
to the total number of miles trav
eled during such year in the
state as a whole. The remaining
S25O.OOO of such total appropri-
alton shall be prorated and paid
to the said counties respectively
in the proportion that the total
number of school buses operated
at public expense in each such
county during the preceding year
bears to the total number of
school buses so operated for
such year in the state as whole.
During the 1940-41 session in
this county approximately 1900
pupils were transported and the
average mileage of each bus per
day was So miles.
Less Profits From Likker.
However, the County of Dick
enson will not be receiving $27l5
in addition when the action of
the legislature is further analyz-
ed. After the appropriation of
five hundred thousand dollars
was tackled on by amendment to
the appropriation bill, the senate
adopted an amendment to in
crease from $1,675,OOO to $780,
900 the amount of liquor prof.
its reserved to the state before
distribution should begin on the
basis of one-third to the state
and two thirds to the localities.
Thus Dickinson will not receive
as much ABC funds as hereto
fore.
