the the the SATURDAY EVENING ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT FEBRUARY 17, 1923 SCHOOLS TO PETITION LEGISLATURE FOR AID Jonesboro, in Debt, With Teaching Force Reduced, Sees No Other Way. Jonesboro, Feb, citizens of Jonesboro have decided to act: to save the city schools from financial disester which has seemingly been impending for a period of years. In fact, a showdown has only been averted by the gonerosity of certain publie-spirited citizens who have, for the past two years, successfully conducted a campaign to finance the high school by private donations. A mass meeting was held at the Chamber of Commerce Tuesday night, attended by patrons of the city schools and those interested in their welfare. A financial statement of the' schools which was submitted not only indicates that the schools are sadly in debt, but are actually not functioning normally for lack of space and teachers.

Notwithstanding the increase in pupils, there are 13 fewer teachers employed at present than two years ago. There is a bonded indebtedness to be retired. There is likewise a floating indebtedness at the local banks to be paid, with a payment due on the bonded debt within a short time. Seeks Legislation. After the matter had been thoroughly gone over at the mass meetoing, the citizens adopted the following plan to secure relief: To secure the passnge by the General Assembly of a special act relating solely to the Jonesboro Special School District whereby a 100 per cent assessment of property for taxation will be made by the assessor for school purposes only In other words, if made effective, this measure would result in the equivalent of a 24-mill school tax instead of the now existing 12 providing the electors of the school district vote the usual 12-mill tax for school purposes.

Two years ago the school directors announced that in order to go through the term with the revenue derived from taxes, it would be positively necessary to discontinue the high school. The citizens of Jonesboro, however, with the assistance of the Jonesboro High School Alumni Association, raised sufficient funds to finance the high school, end this procedure was again necessary for the present term. Citizens interested in the proposed plan, however, say that the emergency measur, if put into effect, will finance the city schools and the high school also without private donations. Is Up to Voters. This bill, if passed by the legisiature, would not necessarily mean that tuxpayers would pay twice the amount of school taxes they now pay.

It would merely double the rate of tax for school purposes voted by the electors, and, for instance, should the electors by their vote reduce the school tax rate to six mills, the schools would receive no more revenue than they are now receiving under the present 50 per cent assessment at 12-mill school tax rate. It is hoped, however, and is the general impression, the electors, should they reduce the rate to any extent, will not cut it lower than eight or 10 mills, The object of the will be to afford the electors of the school district, which includes the city of Jonesboro, an opportunity to vote more money for the schools if they desire. Petitions are now being circulated to determine whether public opinion is in favor of the measure. which is admittedly the only expeditions way out. Quick action is necessary if the legislature acts before the present session adjourns.

It is understood that zens are signing the petition willingly. TWO GOOD WELLS IN AT EL DORADO FRIDAY Gulf Company and Ed Bailey Get Fair Producers- -Ganzel Well Is Tested. El Dorado, Feb. Gulf Refining Company Friday completed its as an 800-barrel well, and J. W.
