ing more bond funds when 1t
has not committed all of those
already available.
Planning commission mem
bers agreed to consider his
request at their next meeting
February 8.
County Director of Finance
Edgar Smith said today that
a forthcoming report will show
that as of the end Of Decem-
Der the amount Of unobligated
bond money had dropped to
slightly less than So million.
He cited several reasons
which he said prevent the coun-
ty from committing funds as
they become available.
Land acquisition problems
and difficulty in choosing sites
can cause lengthy delay in
awarding contracts for con-
struction projects. he said.
He said too that some con-
tracts are so complicated that
their preparation creates delay
in allotting funds.

Hansen Outlines Steps
For Adequate Schools

A wide variety of new serv-
ices and facilities are needed
to make District schools "ade-
quate to their task" Supt. Carl
F. Hansen said today.
In his annual report on
1859, just sent out to mem
berS of the District Board of
Education, the superintendent
acknowledged recent advances
in the educational programs
here.
But both school personnel
and the community must do
considerably more, he said, if
the schools are to achieve their
overall goal-to provide oppor-
tunity for the maximum intel
lectual developments OF each
pupil to prepare him to act
"as a rational being in all new
and changing situations"
School perSonel. he said. must
see that maximum use is made
of all existing educational re-
sources.
