OClOBbrl 1J. l'JOJ A 7 County OEA Unit 1 Supports Ballot Measure on Tax The Jackson county division of the Oregon Education associa tion recently decided to support actively Ballot Measure No. 1, the new state tax bill, John Stewart, county OEA president, said Saturday. "Passage of Measure t would ensure continuation of state services and education, as well as local education, at their pres ent level during the remainder of the 1963-64 biennium. It would provide up to $60 million re quired to balance the overall budget approved by the recent legislature. "It would also provide lower real property taxes if state in come during that period should exceed estimates. All state sur plus in excess of the $10 million must be returned for local prop erty tax relief," Stewart ex plained. Income Replaced The only way the lost income could be replaced would be by major new taxes requiring a special session of the legislature. Even if this occurred, additional expensive, time-consuming re ferral elections could be expect ed, the OEA county president said. "A saving of the magnitude of $60 million hardly can be found, even after stripping many need ed state services without cutting education which accounts for 60 per cent of the state general fund budget," Stewart continued. "This, in turn, means higher local property taxes much higher in some districts to re place funds now coming from the. state basic school support fund for local primary and sec ondary education," he added. Of the $404 million total in the general budget, all except $170 million is for basic school sup port and higher education. If the funds budgeted for education are not touched it would mean ap proximately a 35 per cent cut in other - state services, Stewart concluded. Board Reaches No Decision on Taxes Said Delinquent Railway passenger cars aver age 72 feel in length. PHOEXIX - The Phoenix school board did not arrive at any decision this week or take any particular action regarding Rogue Valley Manor's two-year tax delinquency, according to Phoenix School Superintendent Ernest James. "We do realize that the man or has not paid its taxes for some time and refer any inter ested person to the Jackson county tax office for further in formation," James said. It was noted that the manor has not paid taxes for the fis cal years of 1961 and 1962. Walter Higgins, administra tor for the manor said Saturday he had no statement to make. Some litigation is pending in the northern part of the state as to whether such homes as the manor can be declared char itable, non-profit institutions and exempt from taxation, he said. Letter Is Read In other business, the super intendent read a letter from the state department of education pertaining to standardization of schools. It indicated that the administration and school board should be commended on their evaluation of the district's ed ucation program and the plans for remodeling and further build ing for the school plant. The board discussed the cre ative writing program held last year in the Talent grade school for students showing exception al ability in creative writing in the fourth and fifth grades. Most of Thursday evening was spent checking the proposed plans for the new Talent school gymnasium and cafeteria. Bids on the work will be let some time next month, James said. Cost Is Estimated Estimated cost for the entire remodeling and building proj ect is $365,000, James said. This includes the gym and cafeteria at the Talent Junior High school, additional gym , facilities and cafeteria at the senior high school. This $365,000 is part of the $885,000 bond issue passed last year. The plan- is to provide addi tional facilities as needed from the bond money. The greater proportion of the money will go for classrooms, the superinten dent explained. Phoenix Hardware store, Phoenix, was awarded the con tract as lowest bidder on light globes. It bid 38 per cent off the general list price.

I want to serve in our local "equal rights" campaign. Russell N. Let s live auiellv and keep out of trouble. Alberta N. In church last Sunday our minister handed out cards and asked us to sign up as workers in the Equal Oppor tunity arive starting next month. I'd like to help integrate our school, but my husband says it's iiui my joo. Russell N. I've always minded my. own business. What's going on in the schools and restaurants is just politics ana i aon t Know anything about such complex affairs. I don't want my wife getting mixed up in a fight. Let the experts settle it. The Council: Most of us mem orized the date 1863 in school because of the Emancipation Proclamation. Our children, gi andchildren, great-grandchildren will parrot, "1963 The Emancipation Realization," or some such term of progress. In stead of struggling to stay aloof, Russell should realize his priv ilege in being able to be part uf a once-in-a-century turn in his tory. Deciding not to participate is like saying, "I don't count. Let others run my life. I'll just sit back." That's the way sheep would talk if they could talk. . . The great catching-up time is here, now, and Russell will find it IS his business. It will engulf him from the moment he picks up his morning paper. He'll ace the tidal wave of healthy change where he eats, rides, works, rests, luxuriates. It's not poli tics alone, nor religion. It's a Truth whose moment has come. . . .Russell will find he's already "mixed up" in it. Signing that card just helps him and Alberta speed the orderly, unscrambling of justice.
