nothing from the state equaliza-
ton program for schools. It sup
ports its own from direct taxa
ton.
The program is designed to help
counties such as the Flathead with
high enrollments and comparative
ely small tax bases.
He said there is a danger that
sections of Montana that get lit
tie or nothing from the equaliza-
ton fund ($9,400,OO0 appropriate
ed) would gang up to defeat the
program. A number of these Sec
tons are supporting their schools
to a major extent without state
funds.
School financing is a difficult
topic. 1t is one which school Off
Gals themselves in some cases do
not fully understand it seems.
1t was interesting to talk to
Senator Jellison and Mr.. Moss,
and now to watch the campaign of
the school administrators.
Let's keep in mind that fore
runners of House bill 81 have
favored the Flathead. Furthermore
that lib 81 is just the mechanism
OF dividing the money. The ap-
preparations bill for education
provides the funds. The issue ap-
parently is Z per cent boost
The flood of newspaper articles
and radio speeches will be some
thing to see. In the meantime our
school people should make it a
point to have ten minute chat
with Senator Moss. He re-wrote
the original bill, forerunner of the
present concern. We hope the
school men know what they are
doing. Do we favor this formula
of school support that favors such
counties as the Flathead? Yes sir.
How about House bill 80? Yes, I'M
less the z per cent increase threat
ems the whole pattern of equali-
cation that benefits our county,
and does little for others. We hope
this school campaign doesn't be-
come situation of eff you don't
believe as I do. you're nuts"
Fortunately there is reason to
believe that the Senate in Helena
has some wise heads even as there
are wise heads among the school
administrators. Mr.

Chairman Paul Working of the
Senate Education committee told
the Flathead's Senator Charles
JelIison Thursday afternoon. that
House bill 81 would come out Of
the Senate committee with "do
pass" recommendation. Senator
Working and Senator JelIlson felt
that the bill would pass the Senate
with little or no change.
This telephone information to
the Hungry Horse News came
Thursday at S pm.
House bill 80 that will increase
the estate support" foundation
program by 7 per cent is now in
the Senate education committee,
The bill was passed by the House
81 to 0.
The appropriation to provide the
money for this program is in
separate bill that has been passed
by the House. Total is about So
100000 for two years. House bill
80 provides the mechanism for
dividing this state support.
Meanwhile school administra-

House bill 80 should be sent to the

Chairman is Senator Paul Work

Senator Jellison commented tina
he had not studied House bill 81
sufficiently to express an opinion
at this time. He added that litiga-

was chairman of the Senate edu.

years. He wrote the formula O
dividing state funds for schools
and was the authority in the Sen

Former Senator Moss comment
ed that the Flathead gets about 1
per cent of the total state funds
The formula is worked out so tina
counties with high enrolment
and comparatively lower assesse
valuations get the most state sup

Yellowstone and Cascade coun

everything is always subject to
change.
The top statesman and his
wife have set their sights at
the moment for a vacation
during the first two weeks in
September. They will go to
their island in Canada, Duck
