City's Share
 School Budget Upped $16,0OO

$80, ,22a74 is the share set by the Independent School Board, for the City to pay in the operation of the two schools, according to a budget presented the Council Monday night by Ivor Schott, School Sup erintendent.
 This sum represents an increase of $16,000 over last year. The diff ference is brought about by the City's annexation of the Mission Road area. It was pointed out at the Council meeting, that the diff ferences will more than likely be offset by increased revenue from taxes from residents of the area.
 Budget requirements for school operations next year were set by the School Board at $445, ,979. 50. Coupled with the City's share, the balance of that amount is furnish CT through territorial and federal funds.
 Some discussion occurred on the budget, but action was deferred until further study could be made. It is expected action will be taken at the next meeting of the Council.
 The old high school building will be utilized for class room use. First to fifth grades will be taught there. Some discussion followed the budget report on the possibil- ity of building of additional facili- tes for school use. Asked as to whether there were sufficient class rooms, Schott replied that the ex- pected crowded conditions next year, will necesSitate using the old school.
 The City condemned the build ing some time ago. Additional funds cannot be allocated until the building is torn down, however, and the need actually exists. The School Board, however, is seeking funds on the grounds of the de fense situation existing here which necessitates additional classroomS and space.

comfort and aid to the work be-

travellers ;"
Mr.. Wagner said DR.. Hutchins

statement" that Communism
has failed in America" DR..
Hutchins also said, he added. that
those who take issue with the
Fund for the Republic do not
know what America is all about.
I'm my opinion. said Mr..
/ Wagner. these statements are
continuing evidence Of Mr..
Hutchins' refusal to see COM
munism as a real and present
danger to America
In the absence Of any state
ment and concrete evidence by
Mr.. Hutchins, or the Board Of
Directors of the Fund, that a
change n policy is contemplated
and in motion. believe that the
time has come for more vigorous
action on the part of those re-
sponsible for placing Mr.. Hutch
ms in his present position.
f! Preferably. Mr.. Hutchins and
his board should be deferred
from further expenditures of the
remaining principal Of the Fund.
i At the very least. there should
be an uncompromising and un-
equivocal move on the part of
all responsible persons to dis
associate themselves from the
further activities of the Fund"

for future improvement"
He said the first consideration
should be providing all qualified
personnel equal opportunity for
employment and advancement.
Positive Attitude
while this should not in any
way be interpreted as lowering
our employment standards, ii
does mean the development OF
"a positive rather Than a passive
attitude on this question. &
THE most effective, and per-
haps the only effective way OF
having the spirit gs.vell as the
letter of the Commissioners
order carried out is for each de-
,partment and division head to
Undue the members Of his organ

philosophy"
In some instances, he said,
this means overcoming a very
natural resistance to change"

action for us to move ahead
on our own rather than to face
the rigid requirements of pos
