through such a free debate of

ones. Ii a community leaves I'M
educated any large portion of its
citizens. because they cannot af-
ford its cost, or for any other
reason. it inevitably creates for
itself enormous problems in vel
fare, delinquency, crime and I'M
employment. 1t means numbers
OF illiterate laborers which are
difficult to absorb in the labor
force. Today business ard indus
try are demanding a higher level
OF training of its employees than
ever before.
We are aware that the
Prince F ward Foundation
has o tain e d contributions
from those who have school age
c h ! d L e n and those who do
not. No W h tie child was de-
MED admission to the Founda-
tons schools for the session
1959-60 because his parents could
not make a contribution or be-
cause they could afford only a
small gift. For this stand we are
grateful. Yet the people of
Prince Edward County must face
the question whether this method
OF voluntary support of schools
can be depended upon year
IN and year out through good
times and bad to pay the cost
OF education for all. Education
must meet standards of quality
over a period of many years and
be conducted by teachers and
administrators Of dedicated pur-
pose and training if it is to con
tlnue to be effective to meet the
needs Of our people.
Unless some new system of
education for all can take over
the whole job of the public
schools and have it's cost guar
anteed in a reasonable manner,
we fear the economic conse-
Quences to the County. This year,
for example, when the people of
the County have paid all, of the
cost OF education in the County
we have seen at least a half
million dollars not come into the
economic life of the County
which did come in earlier years.
We refer specifically here to two
items. In the past we have
received approximately $500 900
from the State for operation of
public schools. Also in the past
the large taxpaying corporations
IN the County have paid approx
mately 100000 in local taxes.
This year. this money did not
come to the County in any form.
We believe that the concerns
expressed herein are sufficient
to indicate some of the reasons
Hhy we six men were unwilling
alone to declare the Farmville
High School Property surplus.
We cannot base our decisions in
this crucial matter on a short
term view. We must ask our
selves what are the consequences
for the next five, ten or more
years, before we completely and
finally dispose Of the two million
dollars worth of school property

considerable sacrifice. We be-
