SUBCHAPTER II--COLLEGE-AID ANNUAL APPROPRIATION
Sec. 326. Ascertainment and certification of amounts due States;
certificates withheld from States; appeal to Congress
On or before the 1st day of October in each year, the Secretary of
Agriculture shall ascertain and certify to the Secretary of the Treasury
as to each State and Territory whether it is entitled to receive its
share of the annual appropriation for colleges, or of institutions for
colored students, under this subchapter, and the amount which thereupon
each is entitled, respectively, to receive. If the Secretary of
Agriculture shall withhold a certificate from any State or Territory of
its appropriation the facts and reasons therefor shall be reported to
the President, and the amount involved shall be kept separate in the
Treasury until the close of the next Congress, in order that the State
or Territory may, if it should so desire, appeal to Congress from the
determination of the Secretary of Agriculture. If the next Congress
shall not direct such sum to be paid it shall be covered into the
Treasury.
