said, "the time has come when we
must take good solid look at our
educational system and the expen-
ses entailed therein"
He continued, I'VE must not, by
any means, deprive any child from
receiving an education, but we
must not exceed our abilities as
taxpayers to pay for such.
True" he went on, I'VE have
an increasing number of children
and true they must have more
classrooms, but / wonder if in
building of these schools a note of
economy should not be injected"
He then asked if it would not be
proper to study architects fees
lawyers fees and other procure
ment expenses connected with such
building program.
He also pointed to agriculture
and noted that while factory wages
have increased to an all time high
of $2.16 per hour, farmers return
for their labor and management
