the 120th General Assembly:
Hon. Harry E. Mayhem
Hon. Walter ]. Hoey
Hon. George A. Robbins
Hon. Carlton Clifton
| Gentlemen:
AS our legislative members in
the 120th General Assembly, you
are aware of the school tax burden
in the Milford Special School Dis
trict and the inequities of the pres
ent tax load with regard to this
districts burden in educating high
school children from the four ad-
| joining feeder districts who have
no high schools.
You will recall our efforts in
meeting with the boards from these
| four districts last winter and
spring, when there was agreement
that there must be relief in this
matter. A majority of those present
at our final meeting agreed upon
contents of a proposed bill, conces-
sions being made by all parties con-
cerned, and all parties understood
clearly that it would be presented
to the next session of the General
Assembly in an effort to obtain the
necessary relief.
Not only is this so, but the Board
of Education of the Milford Special
School District promised the citi-
zens of this district when the last
building referendum was voted
that this bill, which had already
been prepared by the boards at
torney, would be introduced in this
session of the General Assembly
The bill has been introduced CHS
88) and similar bills that would
give the same type of relief on a
statewide basis have been intro
duced. This school district would
be thoroughly agreeable to state
wide bill in place of House Bill No
88. 1t is understood that SB 95, in
troduced by Senators Price and
Williams, will meet these needs.
We respectfully request your
careful attention to this matter at
an early date.
Very truly yours,
Milford Board of Education
By Max R. Corder, President
In addition copy of the above
letter was sent to each member OF
the Legislature at Dover. All resi-
dents of the Milford District wish
ing favorable action on SB 95 are
requested to express themselves to

Their first trial last summer

The United States Court of
Appeals here upheld the denial,
and counsel for Mr.. Mack and
Mr.. Whiteside then petitioned
the Supreme Court, asking a

Matthews denial.
The Supreme Court denied
the Mack and Whiteside request
