Under these programs the hours on
the job and in the high school are adj
justed and co-ordinated in accordance
with the requirements of employers
and the schools. For example, appren-
tees employed in a Woodworking
plant in Illinois attend high school Is
hours week, and are instructed in
the plant for 80 hours a week in the
use of machines and tools-a total of
48 hours per week
Some apprentices employed by the
company attend high school in the
morning. Others attend high school
in the afternoon depending upon the
work in the plant in which they en-
gagged and school curricula. Thus the
high school students are able to de-
vote the balance of time in the plant
A system of inter-related credits,
acceptable for graduation under both
the school and apprenticeship system,
is also worked out under these com
bination programs. AS a result of
these credits the time required for
graduation from high school and also
from the apprenticeship system is re-
duced.

This, the court held, could not be sub
mitted to the vote of the people under
the constitution, which expressly ex-
cepts appropriations from the initia-
tive and referendum provision.
1t was argued by defendants that
the legislature intended to repeal the
existing cent tax. In this respect
the court held that the legislature
had used no language indicating such
intent. that it had no power to impair
the security of debentures now out
standing by such repeal, and hence
that the gasoline tax would under the
proposed act be II cents per gallon
from July l, 1913 to June 30, 1915,

stead of the present cents per gal

only those who were also taxpayers

The court pointed out that under the
Indebtedness provision of the consti-
tuition only taxpaying voters could
vote upon that issue. that under the
general referendum provision of the
constitution all voters were entitled
to vote, and that the court could not
separate the questions and order them
to be voted upon separately by the

PLENTY OF SHIPS
 TO OPEN. FRONT
Head of Maritime Union Declares Lack of Ships
 No Excuse

New York, July 7-CUP)-Assail- ing federal reports of insufficient shipping to maintain a second front, Joseph Curran, president of the Na- tional Maritime Union, said yester- day that there are enough ships available now to supply an invasion army.
 "The cry of not enough shipping made from time to time by the war shipping administration is not an honest cry" he said at the opening of the unions five-day constitutional convention.
 "Our members" he said, ''have brought in complaints by the hun dreds of ships lying hundreds of days in the far reaches of the world {; cargoes not being unloaded; ships carrying bananas back to the Unit ed States when they could have been carrying war materials; other ships carrying champagne down to the battlefronts.
 "These things were brought to the attention of the VISA in an 80-page document. The VISA rejected he proposals coming from the men who know what the sea is all about"
 Curran said nothing was done about offers of seamen, the inter- national Longshoremen, and the Warehousemen's League of the Pa cific coast to unload 87 ships report ed lyong idle in port for months.

WALKER REFUSES
 COMMENT TODAY
Police Gazette Editor Says Postmaster General Used
 "IOaded Dice"

Washington, July 7.-(UP)-Post- master Gen. Frank c. Walker was anything but amused today by a charge that he was heavy winner in a crap game with friends recent ly because his dice were loaded.
 One of Walkers assistants said the Postmaster General would not dignify the charge, by National Po- lice Gazette Editor Harold H. Ros- well, with an answer.
 MT. Walker never owned a pair of dice except those in his back gammon and parchesi sets-and those are not loaded" the assistant said.
 Roswell's charge came during his appeal for reentry of his magazine to second class mails, a privilege Walker revoked recently on the grounds that the gazette was ob- scene.
 Roswell told the post office de- partment hearing yesterday that he cancelled dice advertisements at Walkers request before the maga- zine was banned, but added that Walker, in discussing the ads, re- vealed that he had purchased a pair of dice at a corner drug store for an evenings game with some close friends.
 Walker, Roswell added with a smile, said he was the heavy winner and told me his friends called him a crook when they found that one of the dice was loaded"
