Missour ians are assured of a chance to voice their sentiments some time this sum mer on prohibition; the drys ' ad mit the chances for rejection of the repeal amendment are slim; the wets" say they will carry the state by a 3 to 1 majority. Be that as it may, Governor Park and Roy McKittrick, attorney gen eral, as well as others interested in the machinery by which Missouri will act, differ as regards the proper man ner in which to conform to the pro visions of the Weeks bill. In the opinion cf the attorney gen eral it would he safer, from a legal standpoint, to hold the state-wide re peal election within the six months Imlt, than to defer it to a later date as proposed by Governor Park. "While the act might be construed by the courts to require only that the governor's proclamation be issued within six months after submission, and that the election itself does not have to be held within that period. nevertneiess, because or tne uncer tainty, and to avoid legal complica tions and delay, I think it would be better to hold the election within the six months period. Then there can be no question about it," McKittrick said today. Governor Park, in deciding to call the election for some time late in September, adopted the view the six months' limitation applied only to issuance or tne proclamation, and not to the date of the election. He ex pressed the view' it would not be pos sible to carry out all the preliminary steps, Including a series of precinct, county and district mass meetings to nominate delegates to the convention within six months after submission. "I am not apprehensive of any le gal complications over the course adopted," Governor Park said today. We agreed in our conference, and I am convinced now the intention of the act is that the limitation applies only to issuance1 of the proclamation. I think the course adopted is a safe one."

State Treasurer Hall has certified, to State Superintendent Taylor that on July 1 there was in the state treas ury $424,910.71 in the state tempor ary school fund for semi-annual ap portionment to support of public schools. Superintendent Taylor wtio makes the apportionment of this money to counties on a basis of one-fourth of the total equally divided between districts and three-fourths on a basis of district school population said he had not yet decided whether to com ply with the claims appropriation bill passed by the last legislature which provides that $9, 906. GO of the appor tionment money shall be deducted and paid to school districts in Lan caster, Dawes, Sarpy and Douglas counties to pay tuition of children of soldiers or sailors in the regular army. Under an act of the legislature the state superintendent is also au thorized to pass upon these claims for tuition and to approve them. Tay lor said he had not decided what to do about the claims and may not un til Douglas county claims are acted upon within the county. Attorney General Good has given an option holding the payment of the tuition claims of soldier parents to be valid. State Auditor Price has announced that he will not issue warrants for their payment upon the temporary school fund as the present law, now changed, provides how this money shall be apportioned to schools.
