Republicans
Rup Removal
OF Posters

Montgomery County Repub-
licanS have taken umbrage at
the removal of their campaign
posters from roads in the
county.
The State Central Commit
tee issued a statement yester-
day complaining that the State
Roads Commission was remov-
ing their signs from median
strips and from within 10 feet
Of intersections, but letting
Democratic signs alone.
A check at the Roads Com
mission dump in Kensington
showed the only signs that had
been collected were those pro-
noting Republican candidates,
the committee said.
The Republicans also stated
they weren't told where they
could and could not put their
signs.
However, County Attorney
Alfred H. Carter said yesterday
he wrote to both State central
committees telling them 1t was
unlawful to post signs on
county roads and calling their
attention to the policy on State
roads.
A. spokesman for the roads
commissions maintenance di-
vision said work crews have
been instructed to take down
all signs on median strips,
shoulders and within 10 feet of
intersections.
1.-THE workers have no orders
to discriminate" the Spokes-
man added.

MoriIyn Monroe
Will Probuted;
Estate ST Million

NEW YORK, oct. 81 (AP).-
The will of Marilyn Monroe,
disposing of an estimated 81
million estate, was admitted to
probate yesterday by Surrogate
S. Samuel Di Falco.
In a brief, formal order, Sur
rogate Di Falco said the will
appeared to be properly eX-,
ecuted and that when it was
signed January IA, 1861, the
late actress was in all respects
competent to make a will and
not under restraint"
The admission of the will to
probate lessons but does not
necessarily eliminate a chal-
lenge to its validity. However,
according to some legal OBJ
servers, permission would now
have to be obtained from the
Surrogate before any objections
could be filed.
Miss Monroe set up a 100000
trust fund to yield $4,000 a
year for the support of her
mother, Mrs. Gladys Baker,
who is now in a California
nursing home, and $4,000 a
year for a friend, Mrs. Michael
Chekhov.
After the death of both Mrs.
Baker and Mrs. Chekhov, the
balance remaining in the trust
is to go to DR.. Marianne Kris,
Miss MonToe's former psychia-
trist, to be used for psychiatric
work. After other bequeSts, the
actress left the balance Of her
estate to Lee Strasberg, her
former drama coach.

Housewife Walks
8 Miles a Day

Madam, it's no wonder your
feet hurt. The average home
maker walks about eight miles
a day, according to Katie c.
Thomas, Kent county Demon
stration Agent. The kind of
floor you walk on has lot to
do with fatigue though. Mrs.
Thomas advises you to use
wood flooring.
The concrete slab construc-
ton used in many budget homes
has no resiliency, it doesn't give
when you step on it. A proper
ly made floor creates a series of
shock absorbers that help to
take some of the strain out of
walking.
A wood floor should start
with wooden sills on the foun-
dation, then joists to carry the

bill, endorsed by the Smyrna
and Clayton Boards, the State
Board of Education and the
State School Boards Association
has been introduced into the
legislature. This bill, H. B. g72,
would allow the State Board to
appoint four members to con-
solidating boards for A, 8, 2, and
l year terms from the existing
boards. These members would
stand for reelection each year
as before. This would insure
continuity of membership.

School Board Makeup to Be 81 II
Consolidation Referendum Passes

This is the fourth in a series
of articles concerning the forth
coming Referendum on Consoli-
dation of the Smyrna and Clay
ton School Districts. In previ-
Gus issues, the educational, ad-
ministrative, and financial ad-
vantages of consolidation were
explored. This article answers
some questions concernin g
board selection, taxes, and fu-
ture building plans.
The Smyrna District has just
announced the construction of a
l2-room e m n tary school.
What does ii mean in terms of
the Clayton-Smyrna consolida-
ton?
At least six of these rooms
could be used next year if they
were to be available. When the
building is opened, about 10 of
the rooms will be in use. This
does mean, however, barring
any unexpected squirt in growth,
that the Smyrna District will
not need more elementary class
room space for several years.
Will taxes in Smyrna go up
as a result of this elementary
construction?
1t was hoped that this con-
struction would be underway
during the l96l-62 school year,
therefore the bonds were sold
and the taxes raised. The pres
ent tax rate in Smyrna will pro-
vide for this construction.
In the case of consolidation,
Smyrna times., 1962-03-15

what will happen to the Clay
ton school No. Il9?
The Clayton School in the
Town of Clayton now has pu-
pills in it from grades l-8. In
addition, two classes are being
taught in a church. One of the
classes in the Clayton School
is being taught on the stage.
Clayton School Officials expect
an increase in enrolment in
grade one and in the junior
high, making 5 classes taught in
unsatisfactory manner next year
lin cramped space). If consoli-
dation does not take place, Clay
ton will have to build additional
facilities causing a tax increase
in the Clayton District of about
Is cents or Sc capitation. If
consolidation does take place,
9Th grade pupils might be
brought to the John Bassett
Moore High School in Smyrna
relieving the pressure on the
Clayton School.
Won't that overcrowd the
Smyrna School?
Not seriously. Clayton will
have 40 Eighth grade pupils
next year, no more than that
the following year and a few
less the following year. Smyrna
has about 140 eighth graders
anticipated. This would make
l8O or six sections, only one
more than at present. If the
7th graders were combined,
Smyrna times., 1962-03-15

%, ,OOO,OOO to S8,000,OOO or
more. Clayton and Smyrna
have joint assessments of about
$l6,000,000 Smyrna $ll,45l,- :
$50; Clayton $4,049,008 in 1861.
About 5000, 900 increase can be
expected each year. The refin-
cry would mean a 300 increase
in taxable worth. Since the
amount of money needed to pay
off the debt service remains con-
slant, larger assessments mean
reduced tax rates. Such indus
try, or any industrial growth in
either the Clayton or the Smyr-
ma district, will work for the
joint benefits of all residents of
the Smyrna-Clayton area if the
schools are consolidated.
At one of the open meetings
of residents, it was stated that
failure of this referendum to
consolidate might mean double
shifts for pupils in grades 9-l2.
Why is this?
The present secondary facil-
tiles will not be adequate to
house future enrollments more
than 3-4 more years. New ele-
mentary facilities being built in
Smyrna will relieve this situa-
ton for awhile. Action on con-
struction needs must be taken
several years before any con-
struction gets underway (since
the State Legislature must pass
the bill, local residents must
vote on the issue, bonds must
be sold, and the architect must
draw the necessary plans and
bids let to constructors). Then
it takes at least a year to ac-
tually build the school.
/ At the present time Smyrna
would have to decide to builc
these facilities with their owr
resources. True, they can even
tually collect tuition, but the
basic responsibility is theirs
While the new construction
would actually be for both dis
tricts, the assessment of the
Smyrna district would be al
that would stand behind it. AL
so during the first year the
Smyrna district would have tC
pay all of the tax increase
(since tuition is paid by the
feeder district each year fol
what was actually expanded the
previous year,. It is quite pos
sible that the Smyrna resident:
would be reluctant to supper
such construction costs on theil
own. Consolidation would place
the wealth of the entire area
both Clayton and Smyrna-be
hind the construction. Thi:
should mean lower overall tax
es, lower bond interest rates
and fewer overall rooms needeC
for the two districts.
What would the School BoarC
makeup be of the new dis
tricts?
Since Clayton presently has
about u of the total assessment
and about u the population, il
seems logical that it shoulc
have a of the school board re
presentation. Members of botl
school Boards feel that this i:
fair. Under present laws, an in
terim board would be appointed
with 3 Smyrna members and
Clayton member by the State
Board of Education. At the next
election, the entire board woulc
be dissolved and all member:
would stand for reelection.

weight of the house, then the
sub-flooring and the actual floor.
If you're planning a new
home, you'll do well to make
Smyrna times., 1962-03-15

use of the natural resiliency of
wood flooring. You'll be glad
you did with every step you
take.
Smyrna times., 1962-03-15

there would be a total of l35
students.
You don't seem certain as to
exactly what would be done
with these pupils in case of
consolidation!
The final decision on matters
of this sort are the decision of
the Board of Education. They
depend on conditions and enroll
ment facts that cannot always
be predicted. The important
thing is that Smyrna and Clay
ton could plan comparatively
toward a good program for 9TH
and 9th grade pupils. Actually
it is likely that all Clayton 7th
and 9th grade pupils will even
tually go to the John Bassett
Moore High School or to a new
ly constructed junior hig h
school.
If such a junior high school
were to be built, where would
it be located?
Most likely between the
towns of Clayton and Smyrna
Again, this would be the deci-
sion of the Board of Education
What would the taxes be if
the two districts were to con-
Solidate?
The tax rates in the two dis
tricts are now different. They
would have to be- brought into
line so that only a single rate
would be paid by all residents
The estimated figure (maximum,
! is 43c per $l00 of County AS
sessment and So capitation.
| How does this compare with
present rates?
/ At the present time, the Clay
/ ton District rate is BIC and 81
capitation. This is therefore al
increase of lie. This represent:
an increase of $3.50 per year OF
a property worth about $4,000
$4,000 assessed at SIS, 900. Ever
if your home is worth $3O,OOI
your increase would be no NOR
than $3.50. If the Clayton Dis
trict remains unconsolidated, i
is estimated that l5c increas'
or $500 per person increase
would be necessary to construc
the additional classrooms need
ed to relieve overcrowding. Thi
increase would equal or exceed
the cost of consolidation with
out the overall benefits of bet
ter coordinated school program
There would be no tuition
charges paid to Smyrna if con
solidation were effected.
How would Smyrna take
change?
At the present time Smyrn;
residents are paying SO cent
per $l00 of assessed evaluatiol
and $500 capitation. 1t is esti
mated that several cents can b.
removed from the property tai
during the next school yea
whether consolidation is effect
ed or not, since Smyrna will
receive some additional tuition
money for the present building
program COLLECTED by law from
the feeder" district one yea
after it is expended and tn,
debt service charges will be re
duced. However, under consoli
dation Smyrna district RESIDENT
will have a tax reduction of II
cents on property and will pa.
an additional ST on capitation
The net result will be a tax re
duction of $500 per year to ;
man and wife living in a home
