SWEARINGEN GIVES I YEAR'S ESTIMATES STATE SUPERINTENDENT SUBMITS BUDGET. 4auim?r?tei Twenty-one Items in Recommendation to Governor for Conuderttion. - TVia *+ol-?? e?r?ori'nfpnHpnt. ftf fifllica-! T AUV WVUW tidn has submitted to Governor Gosper,, for consideration by the budget commission, his recommendations afcd estimates for the public schools titttffig 1921. These recommendations include 21 items amounting to $2,$a5*65.0. Each activity is specifically authorized by statute, excepting only 1 the work for adults and the work for the betterment of negro schools. ' These two items have been included in state appropriations during the list ttoo years. The organization and direction of each activity have beenj placed directly upon tne siaxe superintendent of education, and an itemibed report of expenditures and accomplishments is always included in ' the state superintendent's report to the general * assembly. All state aid is based on local tax- ' ation. During the last 12 months J upwards of. 1,000 districtsTiave voted 1 local levies or have increased existing levies. The large increase in the high school appropriation and in the equalizing impropriation is asked in ' order to cooperate with these local 4(i&rtcts? During the scholastic year .1919-20 the legislature failed to make appro Rations for the operation and administration Of four laws as follows: The act to relieve the overcrowding iii-the elementary grades of high ! schools; the act to establish a state board of examiners for teachers; the ' act authorizing public school libraries and'theactto encourage work in agriculture and home economies. Three important appropriations proved absolutely inadequate. The high school , ftirid for paying the tuition of rural \ children in state aided high schools 4was disbursed on the basis of 87 < tents on the dollar. The equalizing ; jfund guaranteeing a seven months' , term and providing an average of , month for teachers' salaries [ Vas ^disbursed on the basis of 47 , tents on ' the dollar.
