Politics Is a devious racket
and politicians trrP'lwafable of
accepting a simple answer to
any question. Some time ago
a federal court, with both feet
wit of bounds, said Texas’ sys-
tem In financing school Is un-
const i tutional be o a rfs-e some
districts have more money than
others. After they get elections
off their minds Austin polltl-
clans will begin fumbling around
for an lnyo+vod, complicated
way of financing the schools.
Why not pay all school taxes to j
the State and let the State spread ;
the money around on the hasts
of scholastic enrollment'1

It needs working over, but you
watch 'em. Thisconsitutlon pro-
hibits deficit spending; If the
Legislature appropriates a mil-
lion It must have the money,
in hand or in sight. It may not
leave the hills for future gene-
rations. The governor of Texas
has less authority and power
than any others. We are af-
flicted with an-element that
would like to get rid of the
deficit .spending prohibition, and
make the Governor a powerful
officer. If they ever do It won’t
be long before Texas Is In the
same situation as California,
Michigan, New York, and more
than several other states.
