Commission chairman Boyd Henderson said county leaders would consider the arguments presented and issue a decision. Because the change is protested by owners of more than half the acreage, commission approval would have lo be unanimous, i rejection requiring a simple 2-1 vote. A zoning change by the commission on a i parcel of ground to the north of the Beitia petition was made last month by a 2-1 vote. If the area is zoned agricultural-transitional, existing industries would be able to i i present operations, but could not expand their business or go into another business venture on Ihe same property.

See story below. Over-ride Would Fund Kindergartens KDITOR'S NOTE: Second in a series detailing issues lo be presented Pocatello School District patrons in Tuesday's election, this article explains kindergartens as they have been funded in the district. Under a four-mill over-ride proposal, kindergartens would receive two mills, community education 1'z mills, and needs assessment projects one-half mill: BY MATT BAILEY Journal Staff Writer Under terms of a four-mill over-ride proposal slated for election in the Pocatello School District Tuesday, kindergartens would receive two mills or $98,000 for the 1974-75 school year. For parents of kindergarten youth, two mills, when compared with last year's one mill allocated for kindergartens as part of a five-mill over-ride, would mean a reduction in monthly tuition payments from $12 to S5. At a public meeting March 10, about 50 parents expressed disatisfaction with the $12 a month tuition fee as being "too high for some families." At the conclusion of this school year, nin-month half- day kindergartens for five-year-olds in the Pocalello School District will mark their third anniversary, although summer kindergartens in the district were funded prior to three years ago.

In 1971, Gov. Cecil Andrus allocated the Pocatello School District funds to set up half-day kindergarten classes for 300 students under Idaho's share of the Federal Emergency Employment Act. EGA funds continued to finance kindergartens in Pocatello for two school years. In January of 1973, President Nixon's cutbacks in federal spending killed most Emergency Employment Act programs, including public kindergartens being operated in Pocatello and in many other school districts in Idaho and throughout the United States. To continue kindergartens here, district patrons last spring approved a five-mill over-ride (one mill for kindergartens) in an election similar to the one slated Tuesday.

About 430 five-year-olds have been enrolled this year in kindergartens a't 11 district schools under 11 teachers and four teacher aides. After the withdrawal of Federal EEA funds last year, Mrs. Barbara Miller, kindergarten coordinator for the Pocatello School District, attempted to gain kindergarten funding from the Idaho Legislature. Although reported favorably from the kindergarten sub-committee of the House Committee on Education, the kindergarten bill was defeated in the House by four votes. According to Mrs.

Miller, all legislators from the Pocatello School District voted in favor of the kindergarten measure, which was approved in the Idaho Senate, except District 34 House Democrat Wayne Loveless. Loveless voted against state-supported kindergartens for what he said was an unconstitutional local option provision that "would permit local voters to appropriate state money lo themselves by a purely local vote." Loveless said this violates due process of law. Other area legislators have received praise from Mrs. Miller for their active support of the kindergarten legislation, particularly District 35's representative Ralph Wheeler, Republican chairman of the kindergarten sub-committee, and S. Albert Johnson, District 35 Democratic chairman of the House Education Committee.

When Pocatello School District patrons go to the polls Tuesday, they will decide, among other issues, the fate of kindergartens in the district for the 1974-75 school year.
