Finally, we asked about state
financial aid to small towns. We

"All these governmental agen-

for larger shares of tax revenues
from state collections don't want
to forget that one of the greatest
benefits to small centers comes
in the form of individual pay

state is carrying large load there,

not handle it if we gave that prob
