Schools Use OF
State Funds
May Cause Low
Federal Aid
Proposal Now Pending
Before Congress Pro-
vides Only Small Sum
For Delaware Because
Of Big State Spending.

There is a distinct possibility
that the use of state funds for the
support of public schools in Della
ware may be the cause of this
state receiving only a small ap-
pOrticnment of any federal funds
setup for the support of educa-
ton.
Only a few months ago, when
the Legislature was in session,
there was considerable clamor
from certain groups in this state
for the use of more state funds
for the support of schools, with
many claims being advanced as to
why this should be done and also
to the effect that the states share
of the school expense was not as
large, in proportion, as that used
in some other states.
Now pending before Congress
are several proposals for the fed
eral funds to be used in support
of schools and, according to a re-
cent issue of the Legislative Bull
letin of the Council of State Gov
ernments, a measure receiving
foremost consideration would pro-
vide only small amount for Del
aware because of the large sums
expended by the state.
Reporting on the matter the bull
letin stated in part: "The leading
Senate, bill is concerned largely
with equalizing educational oppor-
tunity by making grants only to
those states least able to meet
their educational obligations. The
leading House bill, however, in
addition to grants aimed at equal

Vaccination Program
Recent Legislation Provided For

Delaware dairymen have taken
another step towards efficient pro-
duction. This was pointed out this
week by Delmar j. Young, extern
sion dairyman, and Edward s. Bid
die, mastitis specialist for the State
Board of Agriculture. Both cited the
recent legislation in Delaware pro-
viding for vaccination of calves
against brucellosis or Bangs Di-
SeaSe.
They point out that the ravages OF
this disease in dairy herds can only
be halted through protective mea-
sures and advise dairymen that
after July l the State Board OF
Agriculture will upon the request OF
owners of dairy cattle furnish free

SUGAR RATIONING ENDS
FOR u. s. HOUSEHOLDERS
(By The Associated Press)

(By The Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, June 12.-
Secretary of Agriculture An
derson last Wednesday an
nounced end of sugar ration
ing for household consumers
effective at midnight the same
day.
The nations housewives
thus reached the end of a
five-year coupon ordeal.
RatiOning of sugar for hO-
tells and restaurants also was
terminated by the govern
ment.
Last of a multitude of things
that once could not be bought
with money alone, sugar was
freed from ration controls be-
cause larger quantities are
available.
However, price controls re-
main. So does rationing of
industrial sugar. (All sugar
controls are due to end Oct. 81
unless Congress says other
wise.)
Anderson's action ended all
rationing of articles for ulti-
mate consumers for the first
time since April %, 1912. Su-
gar, last food to be removed
from rationing, was the first
to be ratiOned.
