SCHOOLS AND TAXES
Committee Report ArouseS Boise
Press Comment.

po;se. Idaho.-Reports favoring
the appointment OF state high
school Inspector and statewide
,obool tax for the support OF the
rublic schools, were made public
I,st week by Charles F. Dienst,
chairman of the legislation com
u;ttee of the Southwest District
Teachers association.
The committee also recommend
sd that the teachers of the south
western district support the
nresent teachers retirement law
&C il stands for the present blen-
nium and that the teachers asso-
ciation of the district request the
next legislature to amend the law
so that at least half of the amount
necessary for its operation shall be
contributed by the state OF Idaho.
Under the present law, approved
March 7, 1921, the fund IS provld-
ed from an annual levy OF one halt
of per cent of the annual salaries
of all the active teachers of the
state:
Reporting on the statewide tax,
the committee says:
"Without a doubt, the most
pressing problem in public educa-
ton today is financial support.
The local or district basis of
revenue does not meet the needs
Of increasing cost of education and
increasing demands for education.
"The percentage of increase in
cost of instruction, operation and
equipment of 1920 over 1917 was
72.2 per cent, according to the
biennial reports of the state board
Of education for that period. The
increase in assessed valuation OF
the state for the same period was
only 1872 per cent. Under those
conditions it was inevitable that
the rate of taxation must increase
to meet increased expenditures.
"Consequently," continues the
report, "in the years IoI8I9I9, we
had 20 Independent districts ask
Ing approval of the state board OF
eduation for a levy in excess of 10
mills to run their schools. For the
year ending 1920, 81 asked this
approval, and at the close of the
past tyear, Is asked this approval
'omeet the years expenses.

would give the champ aareal taste

The fact that he is seeking as
one Of the sparring partners for the

that he has sent out a general call
