TO SBEK FEDERAL ~ HBLP FOR SCHOOLS Local Group Formed to Boost Program of National Legion for Better Schools Organisation of a branch of the National Legion for Better Schools was effected at a meeting here Tues- day of local teachers and leaders of Parent-Teacher groups. Its aim is to obtain federal financial aid for schools. Principal speaker at the meeting was Lynn Thompson, for 20 years a member of the Minneapolis city school board and a leader in school improvement projects in his home state. The bill which he asked the loeal group to support was introduced in congress by Ernest Lundeen, Min- nesota representative, and calls for payment by the government of $25 a year for each school child in the state. The money would be used only for payment of expense of mainten- ance and operation, including the sal- aries of teachers and employes. Thompson estimated that the bill would bring $3,955,600 into North Dekota annually, based on a school enrollment of 158,224. Of this sum Bismarck would get $56,250; Fargo $143,800; Grand Forks $98,500 and Minot $76,825. Cc. W. Leifur, acting high school principal, was named president of the temporary organization. Other offi- cers elected were Mrs. E. J. Conrad, vice president; Mrs. J. M. Edick, sec- retary and Frank Cave, treasurer.

At the same time, the president ex- plained to his ‘press conference that flood control work is proposed to bé included in the regular annual pub- lic works program of $500,000,000 in- cluded in his January budget esti- mates. Asked about moves in congress for special appropriations for flood con- trol, the president said he was not acquainted with these. He said flood control and navi- gation was a very definite part of what he hoped would be a regular and orderly: annual public works plan. Discussing the works program as a whole, the president remarked that there was a lot of loose thinking and writing about it. He called attention to a statement Tuesday by the pub- lic works administration which he said had been interpreted by some as showing that expenditure of the PWA funds had amounted to $741 per man employed. Mr. Roosevelt termed such a state- |ment as careless. He sald PWA allot- ments were only 30 per cent of the total cost of PWA projects and if the full 100 per cent of money spent on these were taken into consideration it would amount to an expenditure of about $2,000 per man. Also, he said that PWA projects cost about twice as much, necessariiy, as works progress jobs because of the higher cost for materials and con- demnation of property.
