(From Tbe Asheville Gazette-News.) The undtrs anding among leg islators wss. that an amendnent to. the compulsory attendance law which they adopted was in-, tended to make compulsory at tendance in a county optional* with the county board of edu cation and would BO operate.' As has been it is Super intendent Joyner's opinion that such is not the case, and that the law requires State-wide com pulsory education. This con struction has the approval ot the Attorney General, who holds that the only power given coun ty boards bv the amendment is that of providing the machinery whereby compulsory attendance mav be effected in their coun ties, and he doubts the lega. status of the amendment. An attempt to apply the amendment as tLe legislators understood it, it is stated, wouldprobably nulli fy the amendment entirely, since it would be heid that the effort has here been made to confer legislative power on the county boards. The opinion of the Attorney General derives an added signi ficance from the position which seems to have been taken that he is, by statute, just about equi valent to a court of last resort matters pertaining to the school laws There" is perhaps not a general understanding of the educational legislation enacted. The so-call ed six months term law sets aside five cents in the dollar of ill funds coming into the State creasury. to be disbursed for alcitlon to the scnool term. This sum is estimated to be $400,000, or enough not to pro vide a six months term, but a term of a little short of six months, in all the public schools. A county, it seems, must levy a pecial tax if necessary to bring he school term up to four months. Heretofore there has »een a fund of $225,000 for this purpose. But this $225,000 will now be used otherwise;that is, if a special county tax of not more than 15 cents on the $lOO is insufficient, then the neces sary funds additional come out of the $225,000. This fund in a word, is used to equalize school terms up to four months, after the provisions of lrcal taxation have been exauated; then the fund estimated to be $400,000 will be applied to extension of terms to about six months.

Send for circulars, free, Commission Appointed to Investi gate One Cent Postage,. Action on the p irt of Post- j mast* r General Albert S, Burle-1 son, involving the apDomtment of a commission to investigate the "actual financial, physical and wirking cond tions of the postal service" is regarded by business men all over the country j as the initial step towards one ' cent letter postage. Poastrraster General Burleson indicated that there have been so many conflicting reports as t> the general conditions of the de partment that he has decided to have a full and complete invest igation made with a view to de~ termining the exact status of affairs. The commission is composed of Daniel C. Roper, Joseph Stew art, A. M. Dockery and James I, Blfcckslee, first, second, third and fourth assistant postmasters gen eral respectively, and Merrit 0. Chance, chief clerk of the de partment. These are the new officials just appointed under the Wilson administration to conduct the affairs of the Dost office de partment. Now that the parcels post is in actual operation and bias fair to be extended auring the nex* few years, it is claimed by busi ness men generally that their de mand for a one cent letter rate should be heeded, They point to tfee fact chat the post office department is now realizing an enormous surplus, something iike $66,000,000 per year, from the etter mail. Although letter mail constitutes but fourteen percent, of the revenue of the deparment it pays about seventy-five per cent of the revenue received from all classes, and it is evident that this is a decided discrimination igainst users of first class or let ter mail. One of the interesting features of the post office department which Will be investigated is the so-called "blue tag" system. In September, 1911. the plan was inaugurated. It covers that sec tion of the United States lying between Pittsburg, Buffalo, Chi cago. St, Louis and Kansas City and provides that within this section, second class mail, parti cularly heavy magazine mail, shall be hauled in freight ca**s. A report from Postmaster Childs of Kansas City indicates that the system has been a great success so far as it has been worked out, Reports furnished by Postmaster Childs indicate that the saving on the small part of the whole mail that this portion covered for a term of seventeen months was $364,995.50. Former Postmaster General Hitchcock, who recently retired from office, was firm in the belief that an immense saving could be effected throughout the country if this plan were followed, and all large eastern magazine pub lishers required to distribute their product in this manner. The Curtis Publishing Co., of Philadelphia, probably the lar gest periodical publishers in the world, ship out of Philadephia by regular mail service every day, from sto 10 fully loaded cars stacked to the roof with maga zines. These are carried at the rate of one cent per pound or $2O per ton, When shipped in this way they may be carried for that rediculous sum, all the way from Philadelphia to California. Letter mail, on the other hand, costs its originators an average rate of over 84c per pound, be cause there are in the neighbor hood of 45 pieces, including some p stal card, to the pound. This means a cost of $l6BO per ten to the originator of letter mail, as against $2O per ton for the big magazines published in the East. some of which charge as high as $5,000 a page for advertisements. It is claimed that the loss to the government through this lack of business method is over $60,000,000 per year, sufficient to entirely eat up the surplus furn ished by first class mail.. It is to investigate this entire problem with a view to making recommendations for a suitable readjustment that the commission will deal. Sentiment in iavor of a one cent letter rate is now strong throughout the_ country, according to officers of the Na tional One Cent letter Postage Association, which has its head quarters in Cleveland, and which is conducting a vigorous cam paign for the lower rate.
