Far East Art At
OSU Exhibition

Art of the Far East covering
many centuries was featured In
four exhibitions which began June

campus.
The displays in the Ohio Histor-

Ohio Union will open concurrently
with the university's Summer Pro-

Arranged by Sidney M. Kaplan.

Weekly Weather
And Crop Report

CROPS: The week ending June
II was of prerominantly rainy
weather and thus limited much of
the usual outdoor work. The ma
jor farm activities between show
ers were haying, filling silos with
grass silage, and cultivating corn
and soybeans. Some tobacco plant
ing was done and is now nearing
completion in commercial growing
areas. In Southeast Ohio, the cab
bage harvest is at its peak. First
marketings of the early lamb crop
are now starting.
The favorable weather received
the past few weeks has caused a
general improvement in crop con-
! ditions. Wheat has shown rather
rank growth and appears to be de-
veloping earlier than usual. Yield
prospects for wheat as well as
corn and oats are excellent. Oats
10 about 500 headed. Corn stands
are generally good, however some
fields are Spotty because of dry
weather at planting time. Replant-
ing has been necessary in some
areas. Barley is nearly ripe in most
all of the state.
Farm work this spring has pro-
gressed very rapidly up until last
week. Haylng is now somewhat be-
hind normal because of tho rainy
weather and rapid hay de"el''o-
mcnt. Approximately one-thicc of
the first cutting of hay has been
completed.
Assuming favorable weather,
work planned for next week con-
sists of cultivating corn and soy
beans, spraying corn for weeds,
and making hay and grass silage.

Why, when the District gov

must its proposed budget be
kept secret?
Why, when the District
Commissioners slash heavily
into requests for more teachers.
should Washington's $4,000

The answer, stemming from
the fact that Congress Is city

all the way back to the final

and President Theodore Rcose-
welt.
The situation has led to q

urged that the public hearing
be held after the Commission

mend to Congress-not before.

This, though, involves the
problem of secrecy and the
legislation which created it. As
q result, the Board Of Trade

at q congressional hearing and
not before the Commissioners.
As Year Old Low
The legislation has been on
the books since March 8. 1909,
when Teddy Rooseyelt-on his
last day in ONCE signed the
Districts appropriation bill for
the 1910 fiscal year.

The 1910 District appr0pria-
tions bill was nearly q classic
example of this. for It carried
several Of such riders--includ-
ing the entire text Of the city's
Vagrancy Act.
That went into the budget
bill after it had failed to get
through Congress on its own
merits. The measure had been
passed by the Senate at the
previous session. but had
begged down in the House
District Committee.

lar session thereof" "
Worse After 1921
Further complications were
added after creation in 1921
OF the Federal Budget Bureau
which had gotten most Of the
criticism recently for the Dis
trict's budgetary secrecy.
The law which set up the
bureau-whose head serves
entirely at the discretion Of
the President. even without
senatorial confirmation - de-
fined the term department

ing the municipal govern

It also made the District
subject to the budgetary

the President have the force
Of law and require that
everything in the Presidents

sage to Congress be kept
strictly confidential" Until
Congress receives 1t. That IN
cludes the District budget.
The result Of all this is
merely to tighten Congress
control over the District and
require that the real budget
making be done there. That's
not likely to change soon.

Is the only institution for
higher learning for Negroes
supported by the State.
The United States Supreme
Court already has ruled that
Negroes cannot be excluded
from State : supported white
schools solely because Of their
race,
Nevertheless, hundreds Of
Negroes have preferred to ac-
eept the graduate aid pro-
gram and attend colleges else
where.
State Controller Sidney Day.
jr., said last week he agreed
with the Attorney General
there is some doubt the grad
uate aid program could con-
tinue to operate In the light Of
the court decision prohibiting
appropriations by the Legis-
lature for educating children
IN private schools.
Some offlcials indicated that
1t can reasonably be expected
that those Negroes, who other
wise might have sought finan-
cial assistance under the grad
uate aid program, now will
turn to institutions in their
own State.
These include the Univer-
sity of Virginia, Virginia Poly
technic Institute, the College
OF William and Mary, Virginia
Military Institute, Mary WASH
ington College and Radford,
Longwood and Madison Teach
ers' Colleges.
Outlay Groups Plan
The recommendation Of the
Capital Outlay Commission
that the scholarship program
in private colleges be expanded
would apply TO both races. 1t
is designed to reduce enroll
ment demands on the existing
State Institutions so that cap
ital expenses for needed ex-
pansion can be kept at a
minimum.

Aside from its main effect
Of prohibiting the spending Of
public funds for educating
children in private schools.
last weeks Virginia Supreme
Court ruling is likely to have
the collateral result OF greatly
increasing enrolment loads on
State colleges.
This is how that would come
about:
Negroes who have received
State aid to further their edu-
cation in private out-of- State
colleges now are expected to
apply for admission to uniyer-
sites In the Old Dominion.
Also, q plan whereby the
Legislature would have ex-
panded its scholarship pro-
gram for education Of both
whites and Negroes in private
colleges apparently has died
a-boyning. The proposal is
included in the recommended
lions Of the Governors Capital
Outlay Commission.
Last year, the State granted
$4,000 to 545 Negro stu
dents to attend 81 out-of-State
colleges. AT that time 1913
went to Columbia University
alone.
Immediately after the court
decision last week, Attorney
General j. Lindsay Almond,
jr., told an Associated Press
reporter In Richmond that the
opinion at first glance appeared
to be sliihciently broad to
knock down the bulk Of the
graduate aid program.

proximately $4,000 the county

vested in the self-insurance

started about two years ago by
the old Republican board OF

fund now totals 69,397, and is
earmarked to cover possible IRE
losses on four elementary

cratic board, which took Office
about a year ago. has not as
vet added any money to

$88, 900 on insurance premiums
last fiscal year. $4,000 the year
before, and has $57, 700
budgeted for that purpose this
year. The cost varies from
year to year because the length
of individual policies varies
from one to five years.
One OF the obvious disad-
vantages of the insurance
systems employed by the state
and Prince Georges County
aside from the fact that they
may cost more than self ins

can easily become vehicles for
rewarding political friends.

Why the secrecy provision
was included is hard to say.
Conferees keep scant records,
and there was little comment

This was presumably no less

Congress allowed the District
