| am perturbed.
I have been informed that
2nd-grade students of Rocking
horse Elementary School, will
not be able to attend classes
full-time starting this Septem-
Der.
Why????
Doesn't Montgomery County
Board of Education have an
emergency fund to take care
of this situation?
If it does, but can't concern
itself about inadequate school
ing, why, then, must l pay
FULL school taxes, when my
child can only go to school
part-time?
Can I tap this Emergency
Fund for money to send my
child to a private school in the
afternoons?
Will the Montgomery Coun-
ty Board of Education pay for
private tutor for my child?
Can she be transferred to an
other school where children
are not penalized?
Why must one group of stu
dents suffer because of the
lack of planning by those re-
sponsible?
Whatever happened to the
ideals :. the foresight T. the
vision the planning of the
Montgomery County Board of
Education in respect to the
lack of classrooms in Rock

wallowing around political
sewers?
Please unriddle me thus.

Decline Shown In
Unemployment For
Holmes County

The total civilian labor force
in Holmes County, currently es-
timated at l0,760, was up only
20 persons from November, and
shows a two per cent increase
over the same period one year
ago.
Total employment is down to
$500, a decrease of 480 under
, N November. Unemployment
/ amounted to 1915 per cent of the
Total labor force, an increase of
$40 per cent from the last re-
port. Agricultural employment is
down due to the completion of
the 1860 cotton harvest.
Employment
Employment shows a down.
ward trend of 3.8 per cent under
November. This is partially nor
NAL, due to the completion of
this seasons coffin harvest. Man
ufacturing employment held
steady with last month, and
compared with one year ago, is
down approximately 80 per cent.

1t is estimated that LAO per-
sons were unemployed during

December, 1859.
Heavy unemployment has pre-
dustries. Some relief of this sit
uation is in sight, because two
of the plants that had been COM
pletely closed have reopened,
and are recalling some of their
employees.
Labor Supply And Demand
At the end of December there
we're 424 active work applica-
tons on file in the employment
office. There is a surplus of avail
able applicants in all occupa-
tons most common to this area.
With the exception of Tool and
Die Makers and Machinist who
are urgently needed to complete
the stating of a new machine
shop.
The urgent demand for work
ers in these two occupational
classifications has been partially
relieved, due to the clearance of
workers from other areas and
states. The majority of our sur
plus available applicants are fe-
male workers who have been
affected by the layoffs in the
apparel industry. There is a sur
plus of Clerical and Sales, semi
skilled and unskilled male work
ers.
