Special fund would be made available to be distributed by (he counties to the so-called "distress districts." "Should the projwsed legisla tion be enacted. Morrow county could pain In receipts from the state 33 or 40 thousand dollars or more," Van Houte said. "In contrast the legislation proposed by the Interim committee on education could cause losses to Morrow county which could be as much as $25,000 per year. Members of the district school board of the county have been Mirfniiv following the problem of state school funds In order to avoid any such losses as this. It Is expected that this legls lalon will be presented some time during the month.
