VOTE YES There is one election that all Democrats and Republicans can agree upon Tuesday—the school question. Simply stated, the question is, do you favor - er oppose a new school unit, which win include Decatur, Preble, Root and Union townships, and the north two miles of Washington township? This new unit would have a five-man school board, which would be selected by the Decatur city council (2 members), the trustees of Preble, Root and Union townships (2 members) and a fifth member to be selected by the other four, first from the rural, then from the city, alternating each four years, after the first year. The trustees will each have four-year terms after the initial period, which Will provide for staggered terms, so no time could the majority of the members be changed at the same time. The new unit would have a broad tax base, and fine per-pupil assessed valuation. If this plan is not accepted, the state will be able to propose its own plan, which may, or may not, be more or less favorable to any group. Parents of parochial students will benefit, because the proposed new district would coincide with both Lutheran and Catholic areas, where transportation in needed. It will help the Lutherans especially, if they decide to consolidate their five church schools. It would benefit every taxpayer who has been paying to support a public school so that residents of other areas, not supporting schools, could transfer in. It would give the people of Preble and Union townships a voice in the management of their school affairs. But most of all, it would provide a base for much better education for the children. Yes, even Decatur’s school can be improved! In fact, Berne-French offers a wider curriculum choice in high school than Decatur, in certain areas. The new school district, which would be neither Monmouth nor Decatur, but North Adams Community Schools, would provide better education, a better salary schedule to attract better teachers. (In fact, Adams Central, Pleasant Mills, and the entire south part the county have already brought their teacher’s contracts up to the same level) . It could also provide aH the patrons of the area with the benefits of a North Central Assoeiation high school toward higher education. We strongly urge evOfy voter to vote “Yes.” We have carefully considered the entire problem; we have even considered voting no so that we might force a punitive school district on those Who fight progress and better schools for all our children; but reason won out, and we have decided that true Christian fairness, to all parties, is more important than retribution for anger. Please vote Tuesday, and if you do not thoroughly understand the school issue please vote yes for the taxpayers and children of northern Adams county. Editorial Writer Today Dick D. Heller, Jr.
