children In the poor school can not
be made up. II Is gone.
The tax situation In ono OF chaos,
with local levies running from " mill
In one district to 30 mills In another.
The same variation exists among the
counties In their ability to maintain
schools. The variation in valuation
In counties runs from s2.ti0 per child
in average daily attendance TO s12.-
60.
No system OF local or county tax.
alton could make the tax burden for
schools in these two extremes any.

make schools OF equal quality.
Some communities have wealth In

TO maintain schools that VIII produce
the quality Of citizenship is dem.
ocratically American.
Under tho present system. much
wealth Is escaping It's just share OF
taxation for tho maintenance OF
schools, and poverty Is struggling
under load too heavy to bear. In
no state in tho Union has tho local
district tax proved satisfactory or
fair. 30 II seems necessary TO change
the system.
