Asks Increase of Gaol Million tiK'Puftt School Equalizing Fund; Says No Burden / Raleigh, Nov. 18.?The theory that the public school, equalizing fund, however large, is not a burden, on the State because it relieves tax burden r, in counties not as wealthy as others, was presented to the Advisory Bud get. Commission Wednesday afternoon by A. T. Allen, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, as he asked for an-increase of a cool million dollars in the fund. Mr*, Allen "asked that the fund be increased from its present status of - $1,500,000 a year, to $2,500,000 a year for the next.two years. The fund is for "the "purpose of stimulating educa tional effort "fit North Carolina and of relieving poorer counties of burden of the law imposed duty of maintaining a six months' school. In his request Mr. Allen was even more conservative :than-?re member of the commission, N.~A. Townsend, of Dunn, who recently declared in an interviey that he favored an equalizing fund of three million dol lars. Mr. Allen declared that $200,000 of t^e additional .^mission requested should be set aside to stimulate the adoption of eight months school terms in counties which do not now have the eight month term. Under this plan Mr. Allen stated that he believed that the number of counties supporting an eight months minimum school term would ' be in rceased from eleven to thirty-one. - ? ~: ? : ?' - Arkansas Delegates J~y - ' ? .
