Many of our people are wondering +
-hy the DUPONT money is not going
lrther in the rural districts. When n
lie original draft of the school code D
as hurriedly amended before its Il
lssage, some persons or persons, un-
loughtfully inserted in the bill that "
e maximum money raised by local
xatiOn or bondage was not to ex- b.
,ed 5 per cent of the assessed valua- Il
on. To any casual observer, this
ay seem high enough and perhaps fe
is; but to us, who know that towns al
Lewis and Laurel, which can't raise
'er $4,000 and are having built for h
EN- ideal school houses costing from II
10000 to 100000 we realize that the s.
lxiliary Association must pay over Sc
100000 to each special district, leav- ly
g a small sum for the rural coun- hi
IS. Any one can readily see that the bC
WINS do not go "fifty-fifty'' with the
lXiliary Association. Now, after the fe
ecial districts get the money that r
ey expect, the rural counties where in
e Auxiliary Association can hold
EN- to the "fifty-ffty" proposition, ell
III not have much money to spend W
lless the tax rate goes to S1.00 or i'll
ore. If this were done, l am afraid be
e masses Of the people would be nj
ore determined to force us back to
e old inadequate school system. If, ag
wever, the legislature could be call of
into special session and then let it G..
crease the state appropriations for 70
hoOl funds from approximately tn
0,000 to $1,000,000, thereby lessen de
9 the burden of local taxation, the tn
uses of our people will approve of tn

Mt improvement will come out OF Sc
certainty and adverse criticism. mi
