Yet school fund bill advances
Washington AP Rep Ray Thornton says Arkansas and other states may soon qualify for federal funds to create veterinary medicine schools after the House Agriculture Committee approved an amended agriculture research and education bill. The panel backed 50 percent federal funding with at least half the funds to states with existing schools. Thornton favored the change noting previous lack of federal aid and by requiring state support it ensures genuine interest. He had sought 15 million dollars for year one but no specific amount was set.
