3W Au Big hum .Our local community is faced with several important issues in the approaching November election. Most important is the renewal of the 6-mifl levy for the operation of the schools. mu irlfonnation regarding the financial status of the Harbor School District and the great need of the law; will be pre sented in later issues of the Mariner and in special circu- It should be made perfvctly clear that this is not a question of increased taxation but a N newal of the. G'Zl'lill levy, under which We have been openning for the put five years. Inas- much as approximately 15 of the funds for operating expensh a are provided by this Lax. it is easilv understood that failure to renew it would be dimmus to the schools. Even with our present income from all tax sources it is diffiv cult to meet the needs of the schools. The cost of all mater- ial equipment for the schools has risen. Intreased living ex- penses have made it necessary to adjust teachers' sslarips up- ward several times in the past four years Our teachers are now receiving salaries that are below average for schools of our type throughout the stag The Board of Education was not able to grant the increment due the luchkrs at ihe begin- ning of the currem school year. lf the vole on renewal of the 6-mill levy should fail. the in- evitable result would be the loss of our best tPaChPr-s, the closing of the schools over a period of three or four months earh year. the reduction of the high school to second or third class rating in the North Cen- tral Associatinn of Secondary Schools and Colleges. and the el'minatian of vocal and instru- mental music. art: crafts, home economicsl and kindergarten from our schedule of activities, Since all of these are essential to good schools. St is certainly the concern of all progressive citizens to see that they are provided. While it is true that only a mainriry row is requi to pass a special levy. that fat should not lead to indifference on the p111 of voters. Every citizen in our community should be informed upon this issue and cast a favorable ballot in the November 2nd election.

How- ever. that vote was merely to maintain the status quo in school finance, with no provision for mtcting the mounting costs of inmcrials and increasuig the salaries mi teachers and other employees. We are operating 21! zt disadvantage in comparison with many other districts because we are not able to meet the sa'ary increments for which provision was made in a. Salary schedule worked out under State supervision midadopted less than two years ago. That the problem must he attacktd and solved in the near future is clearly indicated by the following paragraph- .The United States will need 100000 new elementarv tench- ers each year for the next ten years. Only 20,000 were pre. pared by the training schoals in 1948. Unless there is a much great- er response tothe call for teeth ers. our countrv will face a shameful crisis in the neat:- fu- ture. I say shameful because it is a situation that can be cor- rected by making the profes- sion more attractive to capable young people. Salaries must be increased and teaching condi- tions in general improved. The apathetic attitude of many cit- izens is sadly indicated by the fact that in last weekts election almost thirty per cent of the voteis cast negative ballots on the renewal of the 6-mill levy. They would rather see the schools closed than vrovide the means for keeping them open. Even though they do not have children or do not care for those they have. thev should realize that the survival of de. mccracy depends upon good schools. .As we approach the close of the football season. we feel that many commendable things may be deservedly said about the various groups and individ- uals that contributed 30 large- ly to a successful seasun. True, we did not win the pennant, but we kept the flies off the folks who did. You know what 1 mean. Only one team in the league can win first place. and that would not be worth the effort if the other six teams did not do their best. Our players and coaches put forth heroic effort and in the main were loyally supported by the community. Mistakes were made at times but. they were errors in judg- ment and not of intent.
