Leaf1et Draws Criticism
Mr.. williams charged the
school board is using the
school children to circulate a
leaf1et which is an emotional
appeal to parents"
THE claim in this leahet
that the bond issue funds are to
provide classrooms simply is
not the whole truth" he as
serted. noting that mot more
than half of the actual funds
will be spent on classrooms."
Mr.. Williams said the "rea-
sonable alternative" is a small
er bond issue. He recalled that
Arlington voters in February,
1856. defeated q SO million
school bond issue but in June
Of that year approved a 81
million school bond issue.
A rough breakdown of the
$26 million bond proposal pro-
vides:
Four senior high schools, four
intermediate schools, Is ele-
mentary schools, SO additional
claSsrooms in existing schools,
a 6,000-Seat stadium, a 5000
auditorium gymnasium and
about $750,000 in alterations
and additions to old schools

QUESTION for this building pro-
gram and for future schools
SIP million.
Assistant School Superin-
tendent Robert B. Walker said
the bond issue would cost the
owner of a $4,000 house a total
of $203 on his 1861 tax bill.
If all circumstances remain
the same, this cost would rise
to 1913 the next year, jump to
1851 in 1863 and reach a peak
of $3.50 in 1866, Mr.. Walker
said.
Mr.. Walker warned that if
the bond issue failed it would
mean double shifts in at least
three, possibly four" hig h
schools by 1862.
He guessed that the schools
would be Mclean, Groveton,
Fairfax and either Falls Church
or J. E. B. Stuart.
Support for the bond issue
has come from nearly all
county officials. Aside from
members of the Board of
County Supervisors. indorse-
ment has been given by State
Senator John A. K. Donovan,
Delegates John c. Webb and
Dorothy McDiarmid, Common

The Fairfax Citizens for

for the bond issue with all the
enthusiasm normally found in
a hot fight for political Office.

bond proposal, characterizes it
self as a David fighting the

administration, school board,
board of supervisors and q
variety of citizens groups.
PerIik Sees Victory
William R. Perlik. chairman
of the Fairfax Citizens for
Scnool Bonds, said his organ
ization is using posters, sound
trucks, telephone canvassing
and promises Of baby sitters
and rides to the polls in its
campaign.
"On the whole" Mr.. Perlik
said, we're hopeful of the
outcome"
Mr.. Perlik said he had not
iced "a general picking up of
public interest in the past
week" on the bond issue.
He said the Census Bureaus
new figures showing the
county's population has risen
above $4,000 "substantiate
what the school administration
has been saying on growth over
the next five years"
The school administration
has based its bond proposal on
estimates of 20,6O0 more young
sters in the school system by
1964-65. This would bring
total school population to
10000.
"David and Goliath" Contest
Mr.. Perlik said that in the
light of the latest census he
feels the 20,6O0 estimate of
growth "iS not enough"

EDUCATION FOR LEISURE


ing raised these days concerning education
is this: To what extent should our schools
provide training in the use of leisure time?
A well considered answer becomes more and
more important as society moves briskly in
to the age of automation.
The old concept that work is mans most
creative outlet has been subjected to increas-
ing revision in our time. 1t is becoming clear
that, in society where many jobs will in
volve merely the supervision of automatic
machinery, the creative impulse will have to
find expression during leasure hours.
DR.. Kermit Eby, a professor of social
science at the University of Chicago, recently
said this about the idea of work as mans
chief creative outlet: "This philosophy must
be re-examined completely, since the modern
world is an automated world. Education
must be geared to the use of leisure time"
That is an extreme expression of the con-
cept that education should prepare young
people for the creative use of time not spent
at work Extreme or not, it is a viewpoint
worth pondering. The society of the future
will need many antidotes for unproductive
idleness.

TEST RUN IN CANADA

The idea of helping the farmer with gov
ernment deficiency payments-that is, fill
ing the gap between the average market
price-has cropped up many times in recent
years. The plan is associated especially with
former Secretary of Agriculture Brannan,
who advocated deficiency payments during
his service in the Truman administration.
Although arguments for and against
such payments have been made at length,
lack of experience with plan of this kind
has been an inhibiting factor. Now it has
come about that this country will have a
chance to see the practical effects of def
cheney payments system in operation. The
opportunity is provided by Canada, which
will undertake limited plan beginning this
month.
Those who most hotly champion some
variant of the Brannan plan may argue that
there is no need to waste time peering across
the border, and that we ought to get def
cheney payments going right away. Extreme
opponents of the concept may seek to dis
parage the Canadian experiment without CIV
ing it a reasonable chance.
1t is fair guess, however, that most AM
orleans do not have strong views one way or
another about incentive payments to farmers.
For all with an open mind, the success or
failure of the new plan in Canada will do
much to solidify opinion as to whether the
United States should try some such system.
