P) A fed eral grant of at least (500,000,000 for public schools was advocated today by the National Education association. The association's annual conven tion agreed to seek such a fund from the next congress and asserted that federal aid' should not carry with It "federal control of the schools." A proposal that money be dis tributed to all school districts accord' ing to the numbe. or students In regular attendance and the lack of other adequate tax resources waa adopted. The convention rejected a state ment suggested by Its resolutions committee, which said: "The National Education associa tion maintains that a government that can appropriate nearly two bit Hon dollars for military and naval purposes would make adequate pro visions for the support of public edu cation." This was criticized In discussions as needlessly offensive to the federal government. Mr. and Mrs. H.

When It was all over, the former heavy weight champion 01 the world clam bered Itno a taxi with 14 rattles, 16 pink and blue ttankels and seven boxes of diapers. Dempsey's friends stood around with rattlea In one hand and drinks In the other. Someone pulled a big wooden stork up to the second floor and set It up at the bar. Then Max Baer, heavyweight cham pion and vaudeville actor, suspended a celluloid baby doll from the stork's beak. "It's this way." explained Marc Lachmann, Dempsey's public relations counsellor, to a puzzled bystander. "In about a month Jack Is going to become a father. "He has never been a father be fore, and they are giving him a shower. Like a bride haa a shower." Dempsey smiled wanly and rubbed his damp forehead 'with a baby blan ket. He said his wife Hannah Williams, who sang "Cheerwi Little Earful" In "Sweet and Low" In 1831 was too busy to come to the shower. , "I hope It'll be a boy," he said.
