Legislation introduced Creating
 Public School Foundation Program

JUNEAU lH Legislation ere ating a Public School Foundation program, as recommended by the State Board of Education, was introduced by the House Rules Committee Tuesday at the request of Gov. Wm. Egan.
 The comprehensive measure, Egan said, should be consider able aid to school districts, the Commissioner of Education, the Governors Budget Committee and the Legislature in computing and allocating state aid to local dis tricts.
 More important" Egan ad- vised the Legislature in letter of transrnittal, "the bill is design ed to equalize the tax support re- quired of residents in the various city independent and incorporated school districts"
 The bill provides that the basic need" for financing schools in each district shall be the sum of a teachers salary allotment, an average daily membership allot- ment and an attendance center allotment.
 The teachers salary allotment would be, essentially, the product of the number of teachers allowed each district by state law times the average of the teachers salaries in the two years prior to the year for which the Public

Dr. Milo Fritz Is Lincoln Day Speaker at Homer

Dr. and Mrs. Milo H. Fritz spent a recent weekend in Homer where Dr. Fritz, a Republican candidate for governor, was the speaker at the Lincoln Day din- ner.
 Dr. and Mrs. Fritz also attend | ed the Lincoln Day dinner in Cordova.
 Highlights of his address in- cluded the statement that there is need for change in Alaskan administration because of so-called balanced budgets that do not in- clude $4 million mistakes a $4 million deficiency alpprorriation and an $8.7 million dollar debt to the federal government.
 Speaking against the Rampant Dam. he said: 1sIt does not re- quire the flooding of one-tenti1 of our great state with waters of the mighty Yukon. It will not take ten years to get the first lxilowatt of power out of it. Like the Model F Ford of 1903, 1t is just hint of what we will be able to enjoy a decade, or even less, from now. Ladies and gentlemen, give you atomic power"
 Already spreading from New England across our mighty na- ton and even through Big Delta in Alaska we have at the last count IS atomic energy reactors, five of which produce electric current" !"

School Foundation is being com puted.
 The average daily membership allotment would be $40 times the average daily membership of school district in the Southeast Senate District, $50 in the Southcentral Senate District and $160 in the Central and North west Districts and that portion of the Southcentral District west of the 152nd Meridian.
 The attendance center allot- ment would be the product of S1,000 times the number of att tendance centers in each district.
 AS first step in determining how much state aid would be required by each district, the dis tricts would have to furnish them selves an amount equal to a tax of four mills on the full and true values of all taxable real and personal property within the district.
 The difference between this local tax effort and the ssbasic need" as computed from the three allotments would be made up by the State.
 The Governor said the proposed statute would replace the present complex system of State aid which requires the Department of Edu- cation to review closely many individual items of school district budgets and make decision ap- proving or disappearing individ- ual expenditures.
 s'The formula provides greater degree of freedom to districts in planning their budgets" Egan said. "They will be able to com pute in advance the amount of State aid they will receive, and will no longer have to justify each item Of their budgets to the Alaska Department of Education.
 "It would also serve to under write part of the basic needs of every districts educational pro- gram and still leave it free to enrich the level of education by using it's own tax resources"
 Egan noted that the bill would make additional State monies available to those districts which make an effort beyond the 1ninisns.za required, although this gshase of the bill would not be- come Affective until fiscAl 1006

Highways Fiscal Officer Tells of
 Lack of Control

ONE4fAg Aff AiC AI1ss5ASt1 SA 1 Highways knew on July 1, 1860, l it would have to seek a supple mental appropriation, probably
 this year, the agency's chief ac-
 countant testified Monday night. | l.. A. Woodman told the Senate Highways Investigating Commit tee, however, that the exact
 amount wasn't known until last
 Jan. 13, four days before Public Works Commissioner Richard A.
 Downing announced that sup plemental appropriation of $4,-
 008,333 would be sought. "We were aware something like
 this was coming on July 1, 1960,"
 Woodman said while being ques- toned by Sen. Vance Phillips.
 There was nothing in the bud-
 get for a ferry system, yet we
 had a ferry system. There was nothing for scale house operators, yet we had a scale house opera tors, too.
 There was nothing anyone could do about it. We didn't even know what actually would be needed eventually"
 Later, Woodman was asked by Sen. John Coghill why the Di- i vision didn't ask for additional funds last year, if it was known some would be required, rather than waiting until this year. Didn't Know How Much Woodrnan said the Division simply didn't know how much funds actually would be needed. He told Sen. Lester Bronson the $4 million supplemental ap- propriation was needed because state matching funds were spent for non-rei1nburseable items. Woodrnar, told Phillips he be-
 ieved Sherard had handled his
 duties in an efficient manner, but ] he said he believed personally
 that the Highways Division itself
 could operate more efficiently as a separate department.
 Coghill questioned w. l.. Rid- dIe, chief fiscal officer for Pub lie Works. and Woodman closely about the disposition of $25 500 in federal transitional funds left over after the legislature. in 1860, appropriated S3.S74,500 to high ways from a grant totaling $4 million.
 Both said they did not know where the $25, 500 went or where Coghi1l could find out where 1t went. Woodman said it was his understanding, however, that the money went to the Division of Communications for radio equip ment for the Highways Division. Series of Questians
 Coghill then started a long series or QueStlOHS ApOut l6Cd1 controls in the Division of High ways, the Public Works Depart ment and the Department of Gen. eral Administration.
 Assured that there were fiscal
 controls in all three agencies, lCoghiH then asked:
 Getting back to the supple

 the controls working? How can
 this happen if we have fiscal
 controls in all three agencies?" | Woodman replied that the ap-
 propriation was never overspent
