Schools Face Closure in Indiana Counties Over Deficiency Funds
Dozens of small Southern Indiana counties may shut down before the 120 day term ends as the state lacks food funds. Attorney General Bingham says the state auditor cannot use other lands to sustain schools. Public Instruction chief Aley has notified counties amid shortages, with Crawford County example showing $12,000 paid in but $32,000 drawn from the deficiency fund. See Hawkins for books magazines and music.
