Frankfort, 21 OP) With expressions of confidence that enough support can be attained to enact into law the Interim Committee's revenue programme consisting of a sales tax and an income tax, administration leaders in the capital today made plans for the convening of a special session of the General Assembly, April 30.

Although Gov. Ruby Laffoon remained silent as to when, if at all. he would issue a call for the special session, his leaders here were almost unanimous in predicting that the call will be issued next Monday and the session convene the following Monday. The Governor has made arrangements to go to Prestonsburs Monday in answer to a subpoena to appear before the Floyd County grand jury. The trip may delay issuance of the special session call.

Term K. E. A. Action Aid. Administration supporters Interpreted yesterday's action of the Kentucky Education Association as practically removing the last barrier in the wav of a majority agreement durinst the special session.

The K. E. A. went on record as favoring the legislative Interim Committee's programme provided it will yield a per capita of SI2 for the common schools. The committee has estimated the programme JOB OFFICES CUT FROM 126 T0 1 0 Re-employment Service Has Yet to Select Cities for District Quarters.

Consolidation of the State's 126 offices of the National Re-employment Service into ten district offices, in accordance with the programme of the national authorities, was announced Saturday by Myer Freyman, State director. The consolidation is effective May 1. The programme, far-reaching In effect, includes establishing of the offices in carefully selected localities; a highly professionalized interviewing and general staff, including a field staff, and a rapid and thorough method of handling all work opportunities immediately. The cumbersome features of the 126-offices method will be this eliminated, the director said. Although the district system is more conomical.

this is not the principal factor in the programme, it was explained by the director, who recently returned from Washington where conferences dealing with the new set-up were held. The personnel of the service will be reduced from 269 as at present, to about 150, the director announced. Mapping of the ten districts has been finished. The selection was accomplished by means of charts showing the extent cf industry, with special attention being given mining, and of farming. Selection of the cities in which the district offices will be the most strategically located has not been made finally.

A temporary office will be maintained at Fort Knox until construction there is completed. It was pointed out that while the county system had proved valuable during the C.W.A. prcgramme, in some counties the lack of any work save farming had made the office practically unnecessary." The new system will provide for methods of notification of the district office when unemployed persons not in the county in which the district office is located wish to register, and for a force of trained registrars who will go to these localities if the prospective registrants do not have means to reach the headquarters. The registrars will be persons thoroughly cognizant of the problems of the particular types of work they will list. They also will have charge of listing work opportunities for these tvpes of unemployment, and will be the agent of both the employer and the employe.

Persons selected as employes in the district offices will be chosen from present and former personnel. Their qualification will be the guiding factor in their selection. Mr. Freyman pointed out that the service is not primarily a relief agency, and that while in the case of two persons i. win yield 14,000.000 The K.

"It is necessary to challenge that statement as to correctness." Chair man Johnson wrote, adding that "there is no entry whatever upon the minute books relative to the matter." "Consequently," Johnson continued, "The statement that the State Hign- way Department had.

previous to this date never had under consideration or aereed to anvthinsr pertaining to the rental of this gravel pit. Is not correct." Says Lease Dated Dec. 14, 1933. "The requisition to purchase the gravel pit is dated April 6, 1934," Johnson continued in his explanation. "While the lease itself, submitted by Commissioner Withers for approval, is dated December 14.

1933. It appears, therefore, that the lease taken by Commissioner Withers wag made nearly four months before the requisition was presented to the commission for making the lease. Not only was the lease acknowledged by Ros-coe and Lillian Edwards, the grantors, but it was recorded in the lease book at which time, according to the minute book, no authority whatever had been granted to anybody to make the lease for and on behalf of the Highway Commission of the Com monwealth of Kentucky. "Besides the incorrect statements made in Engineer cotb's letter." Johnson said, There are some strange things in the contract of lease itself." Johnson explained that the gravel in the pit. according to Withers, "would be taken out entirely within the next few months," and commented that the lease is for a period of ten years, with the previlege of renewal for another ten years.

"The question again arises just here," Johnson wrote, "not only ss to why a lease of a gravel pit which was to be exhausted within a few months, was executed by the grantors for a period of ten years: but the further question arises, if the gravel was to be removed from the leased gravel pit within a few months, as Mr. Withers stated, why reserve the right to make another ten-year lease of the gravel pit." Terms Proceeding Illegal. Declaring that "the whole proceeding, in my judgment, is illegal," Johnson said. "One reason for its illegality is that the lease was accepted not by the Highway Department, as Engineer Cobb states in his letter, but either by Mr. Cobb and Commissioner Withers.

seDarately or jointly: neither nor both of whom had my authority to make the lease." "The many instances of purchase of gravel and gravel pits which should be subject to critical examination nave particularly invited my attention to every large purchase of gravel or gravel pits in Western Kentucky," Johnson continued. in. taiitfu attention "to another requisition over the signature of Engineer Cobb and over the approving initials of Commissioner witners. dated March 26. 1934, by wmcn permission is asked of the Hignway Commission to purchase 5.249.57 tons of bank gravel to purchased from Mrs.

Hall said. '-I regret exceedingly that it has gone on record for what I believe has become a political issue. I ieel that many in the K. E. A.

have the same opinion as I do. "How many of the 17.000 teachers in Kentucky have made a study of revenue laws? If they have not it i without their province to dictate or take a stand in this matter.

"I begged them not to mix up with such legislation," he added, "because I knew it would damn the Democratic Party in Kentucky."
