REQUEST DEBT
ADJUSTMENT
School Bond Contro.
versy Submitted to
Commissioners

A controversy between the Stuart
Place and Wilson Tract independent
school districts relative to the di-
vision of the bonded indebtedness OF
the old Wilson common school dis
trict No. q, which was created be-
fore the district was divided. has
been referred to the county commits
sioners court for adjustment.
The county school board en-
deavored 10 effect an adjustment OF
the bonded indebtedness Of $4,000
but failing in this, the board recent
ly passed an order submitting the
matter to the commissioners court
It is understood the matter of ad-
justment will be taken up at the next
meeting of the court.
Common school district No. 4 was
divided in 1922 and the Stuart Place
and Wilson Tract independent dis
tricts created embracing the entire
territory Of the old district. The
bonded Indebtedness of the common
school district was $4,000. and no
part OF the principal or interest has
been paid since the division was ef-
fected. The bonds were purchased
BY the state, which is now pressing
payment.
The records show that the valu-
atoms of the respective areas in 1920
was: Stuart Place Sis4,630; Wilson
Tract, S345,510, making the ratio
about SO per cent for Stuart Place
and az per zen for Wilson Tract: An
effort was made by the county school
board to adjust the indebtedness
upon this basis, but was rejected by
Stuart tract. Neither district. it was
reported, has collected taxes to meet
the interest payments or for the sink
ing fund for the old common school
district bond issue.
The adjustment sought by the
county school board was based upon
a recommendation of the attorney
general. The matter was referred
10 the commissioners court Thursday,
but owing to the absence Of Commits
sioner j. F. Baughn Of Harlingen
no action was taken.

ceipts of weather reports today.

make the start under adverse con-
ditions as the only purpose Of the
