erty in the county, therefore, contrib
utes in taxes to ALL the schools in
the county, the tax e from the
rich districts going as much to the
poor districts as to themselves. All
the districts, rich and poor, get what
they need for their school work in
terms above the minimum as such
needs are set out in the official bud
gets.
In addition there is a per capita dis
tribution to the schools from the cur
rent state school funds, including the
proceeds OF the state half mill tax.
Under the county unit law the aver
age term of school in New Mexico now
approaches nine months. What pro
gress has been possible, under the pro-
visions of this act, in providing great
er educational advantages for the lit
tie chaps in the poor districts may be
Judged by comparison of the present
average school term with the average
ii the school year 1901, which was
IS months. This Is concrete evi-
dence of the advancement made pos
sible by Republican legislation.
An important feature to be remem-
bered in connection with the county
unit law is the fact that it has re-
duced the total amount of county tax
es levied for school purposes. 1t is ap-
parent from this illustration:
In 1914. the year before the adoption
of the county unit tax Nav, the total
proceeds of the special district and
county levies for school purposes
were s1,197,SS5.04.
In 1915, when the first county unit
tax was levied, the amount necessary
Cor school purposes and for which the
unit tax was levied, was SLIT, 770.04.
Thus. although the school terms
were longer in nearly every district, a
saving in school taxes of SS0,115 was
possible under the unit law.
And under the unit law every class
