"There Is no magic inherent in

for a good education especially
when the citizens are strong and

guarantee good education. Coody of educaUon which a majority
ui lis pultuns wain unu uic mil
ing to support.
"The 1937 legislature, with the
support of those groups in the area
which were interested in quality
education, passed laws encourag
ing school districts to organize
themselves into units offering a
coordinated program in grades
one through 12 under one
school board and one administra
tion. This legislation established
the principle that this kind of
school organization was considered
by the profession and the people's
representatives to be a first step
in creating an organization most
conducive to the creation of good
school programs.
"This first step has not yet
been taken in Klamath County. It
is true that there are fewer dis
tricts in this county than in most
counties not yet complete reorgan
ized. The problem here is not in
me nurnDer ot districts, but in
the arrangement of the districts
with their overlapping jurisdic
tions. This is especially critical
since such overlapping affects the
coordination of programs and in
struction. Approximately one-third
of the pupils in Klamath County
are in the overlap area.
The principle of county equaliz
ation of school support by proper
ty taxes was established when the
legislture passed the Rural School
law. This law provides essential
ly that the various levies of all
the districts in a county are to-
tacd and one-half of the total is
levied county-wide with the other
half of each separate district lev
ied within the district. Counties in
which there are countv units
i such as Klamath County i are ex
empt. Equalization within the
county is provided in Crook, Lin
coln and Hood River counties by
virtue of all the county being in
one district. This leaves only

South took a deep breath and

great harm would come to him
and he was sure that he was sac

West doubled and led the queen
of hearts. South looked at dum
my and saw that he had been
wrong on all counts. West almost
surely would not have made four
hearts and South had some sort
ol play for six diamonds.
Some players would have said.
'Maybe we didn't bid enough,"
but South was more inclined
to think than to talk and South
saw that five diamonds was ini
jeopardy.
West had made a vulnerable
ovcrcall on a queen high suit and
probably would hold all missing

West was stone dead. If he

without equalization except as pro
vided by the county school fund
which is nominal when compared
to the total cost of education.
"County equalization w as creat
ed so that all the children and
all the taxpayers in a county can
benefit at least partially from the
school support provided by stands
of timber and by public utilities
rather-than just those who might
live in or near these assets.
Any type of organization which
would encompass all the children
the more thickly populated
parts of the county would pro
vide flexibility in use of present
laciiuies and provision for ad
ditions. Such flexibility should
provide savings in future building
ueveiopment.
"Several sets of figures showin:
the millage shifts in the different
parts of the county are beinc Dre-
scnted. All but one set. those used
by the Citizens Committee for one
county district plan, have come
into Ueing in the last three weeks
The original figures arc the ones
which have been presented, stud
ied and unchallenged by the citi
zens committee and joint school
boards before petitions for the one
county district were filed.
"The three educational objec
tions which have the most validity
have to do, with administrative
prowems. the fear of disunity in
the new district and the cnmnlainl
that the rural schools would ni
iuuiiiiK inim me new organization.
"The county unit is now a suc
cessfully administered school unit,
which has been able to cope with
its problems for many vears. Anv
new problems inherent in the ad
dition of city districts one and
two are hard to locale. There will
undoubtedly be increases in the
severity of some of the regular
problems especially at the high
school level due to to the increase
m me range ot size.
"Tlie fear of disunitv within Hit.
new district is a real one. but
this does not need ovki n i
part of the American heritage that
we can support our conviction.
vigerously as we wish within the
bounds of reason. It is also a part
of the same heritage that once
tlie matter is settled in an eW.
tion the people are rejoined to
work for common goals. It should
be hoped that once the election
is over emotionalism will dissolve
and reason prevail. The children
would be the losers if this did not
come to pass.
Limitations in nrosrams nnd
offerings in the small rural schools
would still exist because these lim-
itations arc due to small enroll
ments and geographic isolation.
tnese factors would prevail re
gardless of the organization of
the districts.
"The citizens of Klamath Coun
ty should provide a substantial
vote on this matter, on June 10,
so that the wishes of the elec
torate will be clear. Once the elec
tion is over, all concerned should
again work to provide the best
education possible, regardless of
district organization, for the chil
dren of Klamath Countv."
WASHINGTON IUPI - The
United States will try to build a

recommendations from a hign-

by Vice President Lyndon B.
Johnson. It put the United States

NEW SUPERSONIC AIRLINER DESIGN This is one of several des.gns for a super,
sonic transport under consideration by Douglas Aircraft. The basic requirements of
his transport would be a cruising speed of 2,000 miles an hour and a transcontinental
ranqe with 130 passengers. President Kennedy announced this week the U.S. will try
to build a supersonic airliner capable of flying from New York to Paris in less than
three hours.

Miller Plans
To Quit Post
NEW YORK (UPH Rep.
William Miller, R-N.Y., disclosed
Thursday night that he will step
down from his post as Republican
national chairman when his cur
rent term expires after the GOP
national convention next summer
Miller also said that he would
not seek reelection to Congress
from New York's 40th Congres
sional District when the present
term his seventh in Congress
ends next all.
He was giving up the political

as Concorde.
Concorde is aimed at producing
an airliner with a speed of about
1.450 miles per hour, the proto
type to be flying by 1966 and in
actual service across the Atlantic
by l8.
One U.S. airline. Pan American
World Airways, disclosed Tuesday
it had ordered six Concordes a
move which undoubtedly pushed
Kennedy toward his decision - that
was not supposed' to be made
until mid-Juno.
Details Unknown
Still unanswered were some key
questions about the American en
tryits speed, passenger capac
ity, range, power plants and con
struction details. The President
said merely that it would be su
perior to any foreign airliner, in
dicating that it would be faster
than the Concorde.
Kennedy added that U.S. air
frame and engine manufacturers
would engage in an early design
competition, with tlie federal gov
ernment and the airlines deciding
which produced the safest, most
efficient and practical supersonic
transport. Development costs esti
mated at about jl billion will be
shared by private risk capital
and federal fluids.
Will Take Longer
Reliable sources said Johnson's
group actually recommended an
airliner capable of flying 2.000
miles per hour at 60.000 feet.
Such a plane, however, would re
quire new metals and engines.
The necessary development work
could never match the 1966 dead
line for a Concorde prototype.
which will be built of convention
al aluminum with already avail
able engines.
The President emphasized that
if the design competition reveals
the impracticably of a supersonic
airliner, the project will be post
wned or scrapped.
