CITIZENSHIP
FACES TEXAS

El Paso county Republicans viii
support the second amendment TO be
voted on November .. the one which
pertains TO rural schools. known as
the. better schools" amendment ar-
cording 10 officials OF the FL Paso
county Republican club
James q. McNary, president OF the
club, declared that the club favored
the adoption OF the amendment and
that it would help forward an reason
Texas.
Texas needs better schools and if
the amendment carries the voters in
a rural community VIII have. the right
TO vote taxes upon themselves to es-
tablish first class schools il they want
them" said Dir. AicNary. AS il is
now their hands are tied and there is
no way for them TO obtain funds 10
improve their schools.
ASIDE from state pride, aside from
any moral, religious or humanitarian
cousld erations, on purely CONNER
cisl basis II for no other, the business
men Of Texas ought to support the
educational amendment. Texas must
have good schools in the country If
agriculture rs not to suffer. Our state
is SO per cent rural and in the rural
districts schools are needed most The
state. educators tell us. is 90 per
cent illiterate and that 25 per cent o.
the children dc not advance beyond
the fourth grade. The average edu-
cationai attainment in Texas is about
the sixth grade. which means that IL
we do not improve in the future the
state IS threatened with a sixth grade
citizenship.
Every enterprise in Texas is now
Handicapped by lack OF educated and
skilled workers Farms, factories,
mines and commercial concerns. chem
zeal and physical industries need
them The school only can furnish
trained workers and educated boys
and girls VINO are equipped TO meet
the problems OF life.
Many towns in Texas are ambi-
tious and eager to provide good school
facilities for their children. but 1t is
impossi bic to do so on account OF con-
stitutioual restrictions. The passage
Of the second amendment would re-
move these restrictions. and that is
why the Republicans OF Fl Psso- coun-
.y are supporting it."
