AUSTIN Texas October 13.—No
bonds will be purchased at th*
monthly meeting of the state board
of education to be held here Wednt-
day. There is not enough money in
the school fund to allow for the pur-
chase of any additional bona . ana
the entfre amount of the appropri-
ation will be used for back payment
on bonds previously purchased.
Numerous applications for stale
aid under the million-dollar appro- I
priatioa for rural schools will !. j
considered and possibly acted up-j
on. Owing to the fact that th* treas !
ury has not enough money to make
possible the dispensation ot any t ■
. si stance under the law recently pas *-j
ed it Is likely that appropriation:
will be held until a later date.
The state department of educating j
has been endeavoring to assort and I
arrange for consideration the 15'i-j I
lor more applications that have come
! i
:in for state assistance under the Jaw. j
These will be passed upon and an- j
