OUR PROPOSED U NIO N HIGH SCHOOL
ERHAPS no issue has come before the vot
ers o f the Nyssa School district that af
fords a better chance to prove our progessive-
ness than that, in which we are asked to express
our approval or disapproval, o f the formation of_
a Union High School district. This district will*
Include Oregon Trail, Arcadia and the Nyssa
School district.
P
The districts involved have, in our opinion,
everything to gain. If the union district is
formed we can give to our children, a high
school second to none in Eastern Oregon.
There may, perhaps, in the minds of some, be
the question of taxes— naturally it is going to
cost money to build and operate this new union
high school— but it is our humble opinion that
the cost of this will not be substantially higher
than that which already exists. The Nyssa dis
trict school tax is 34 mills, the non-high tax is
12.5 mills. It is therefore only reasonable to ex
pect that the 12.5 mills non-high tax will have
to be raised the first year or two, it is likewise
reasonable to expect tha t with our natural
growth and the added valuation that will be on
the tax roll next year, with a much larger added
valuation in 1940, that the high school tax in
1940 will not be much, if any, in excess of that,
that we are now paying into the non-high
district.
There is one certainty— our children have to
be given an education, we all know that it costs
money, to do so, we also know that the crowded
condition o f our school buildings does not lend
toward the most efficient work on the part of
teachers. The last school year saw a total of 759
students being handled by the Nyssa Schools.
Inasmuch as the buildings that we now have
were designed for some 300 students it was
obligatory on the part o f our school board, to
rent four buildings, totally unsuited for the pur
pose of housing the students.
W e have an opportunity on the 29th of July,
to rectify a bad situation, and to offer to the
students o f our district and that o f the proposed
district a better high school, in every sense of
the word— better buildings, better facilities and
more and adequate teaching staff.
Better education means better citizens— let’s
give to our country better citizens— by voting
yes on the proposed union high school district!
B Y W A Y OF CORRECTION
HE Idaho Statesman has been dwelling at
T
considerable length on the necessity ol
oiling Idaho’s section o f the I-O-N highway
south of Caldwell. The stories would lead one
to believe that the Oregon portion of this road
is a first class highway, and that the Oregon
Highway commission was leading the way in
the completion o f this very important highway.
W e have just ended a short visit with some
California tourists, who Sunday came over the
I-O-N, and they report that the Oregon section
is in very poor condition. It may not be a bad
idea for the Stateman’s staff to travel a bit
farther south on the I-O-N and convince them
selves that there is a lot of work to be done on
the Oregon section as well. What little that
has been done, was dime through ‘pressure’ and
we in eastern Oregon may as well make up our
minds that, that is the only way in which we can
hope to have this road completed.
