-.VEDNESD!Y,; M.AY.;2'0;: 19S0 PTAs Urged To Back Aid DENVER (AP)-A feading edu cator urced tndav thai thA n9 tion'i 45.200 local PTA units inrqw tneir considerable weight uenina a program 01 leaeral aid to education. Martin Essex, president of the American Assn. 01 school Admin istrators and superintendent of schools in Akron, Ohio, said school financing is "one of America's national Diina spots. In a speech prepared for the 63rd annual convpnrinn nP Him xr. tional Congress of Parents and j earners, r.ssex said Americans are spending less for education now than they did 25 or 50 years go. "In 1902 education was financed by 17 per cent of all taxes and by 1932 it had risen to 25 per cent," he said. "Needless to say, education improved phenomenal ly during this period. "Today only 12 per cent of all taxes go into schools. Education is not making progress commensu rate with the demand that con fronts us." Essex urged the 3,000 convention delegates to continue the fight for the best possible education for each child. To ignore the individ ual and concentrate on any elite group, he said, would be "unfair unsatisfactory, and . . . in our en lightened times, inhumane."

Resi dents who receive them are asked to preserve them for ready emer gency reference. The plan is one segment of a master plan under development by local civil defense personnel to evacuate the target area and to uarr lur evacuees. Klamath Falls and the area with' in a 12-mile radius of it has been designated a number one target area by the national civil defense organization. The designation is presumably due to the proximity of Kingsley Field. That means, in the case of an enemy bombing attack, the area probably is earmarked for early oomoarament. The evacuation plan divides the city into four tones. Residents of each are instructed to take spe- cuic routes out oi town in an emer gency. Residents of Zone One. th ara north of Upham Street and west of Biehn Street and Lakeport Boulevard are asked to take Lake shore Drive.
