Pickle Urges Changes To
Benefit Rural Water Systems
Congressman J. J. "Jake"
Pickle urged thai the Tex a*
Water Quality Board reaffirm
the changes* in its priority
rating system which would
benwfit rural water systems. In
a statement released today,
Pickle claimed thai the W(JH
has rm! been respmisive enough
to the needs o! the smaller
communities.
"Despite our hope- that
smaller communities wupld
receive a better shot at funds
for "heir anti pollution projects
because of changes in the Texas
Water Quality Board's priority
rating system, the rural areas
have yet to see any positive
action," Rep. Pickle said
Monday.
"1 am very disturbed that the
TWQB has not taken effective
steps in this critical area,"
Pickle noted.
"1 have received numerous
letters from officials of the
small cities, which have been
standing at the back of the
grant lines for a couple of years.
Now, even though I he WQB has
said that the little towns will be
treated tairlv. 1 have been told
by rural mayors and other
officials that they have fallen
back even farther in that long
line,' the 11 year Congressional
veteran added.
Through the President's
release of funds and the
Supreme Court's freeing money
previously impounded, Texas
has recently received $175
million to use in creating a
cleaner environment. "1 have

THE STATE LEGISLATURE
BY REP JOHN WILSON
l a>fro|) Saddle Fl\ Your Flag
Correcllyl
Several weeks ago. I
discussed this critical proMem
of school finance which is faring
the Texas Legislature. Numer
ous plans have been proposed,
and this past ween Governor
Briscoe introduced his plau to
overhaul public education. I
would like to explain the
program briefly and mention
how ii would affect District 30.
Probably the most controver
sial proposal in the Governor's
plan is the "weighted pupil"
money allocation approach.
Presently, the state provides
funds from the Available School
Fund in equal per capita
amounts to students in all
grades. Under the Governor's
proposal, state funds would be
based on three principles. First,
students differ greatly in their
educational needs, based on
their unique learning rates,
abilities, motivations, etc. Sec-
ond, the costs associated with
meeting these needs vary
widely. For example, it is
more expensive to provide
vocational classes than it is to
offer a traditional academic
program. Special education
students require more dollars
than normal student training.
Third, the students population
which need special education or
desire vocational training differ
from school district to school
district. Thus, to provide the
necessary funds for the various
programs, school districts Will
receive funds according to their
student population categories.
Second, the Governor's pro-
gram includes base teacher
salary increases from $660 per
month presently to $743 in
1975 76. a 12.6°<o increase, and
$784 in 197677, a 5.5%
increase. The average Founda-
tion Program teacher's salary
will be $953 per month in
1975-76 and $1,005 per month in
1976 77. Additional funds to
accomplish both the weighted
pupil approach and the increas-
ed teachers' salaries for the
next two years will amount to a
$589.9 million increase over the
present biennium. In addition,
$330 million has already been
scheduled for existing pro-
grams during the next two year
period. Thus, the total required
expenditure will be an increase
of $919.9 million over the
present biennium figures.
If this new plan which will
cost additional $919.9 million
is adopted, approximately
one-half of the state's school
districts will receive much
more money in the next two
year period while the other half
w ill receive no increase in funds
for the next two year period.
Those school districts in

United Pentecostal Church
The young people held a
successful service at the
Methodist Nursing Home in
Lockhart under the direction of
I heir leader, Mrs. Rene Hanna.
Friday night the young
people are planning to attend a
District Young Peoples Service
to be held in San Antonio at
Rev. L. E King's church.
Sunday night. Rev. Gowin
look his text front Titus 2:11 13
that says, "For the grace of God
thai bringeth salvation hath
appeared to all men. Teaching
us that denying ungodliness
and worthy lusts, we should
live soberly, righteously, and
godly, in this present world:
looking for that blessed hope
and the glorious appearing of
the great God and our Savior
Jesus Christ."
When we rest in the love of
the Lord, after obeying the
scriptures for salvation, we can
find peace and joy in our heart
even in this present day.
During this day, following
the signs of the coming of our
Lord we realize more and more
the truth of the scripture in
Luke 3:6 which savs, And all
flesh shall see the salvation of
God How wonderful to know
we shall see the great day.
The scriptures promise us
thai if we repent, and be
baptized everyone of us in the
name of Jesus Christ for the
remission of sirs, we shall
receive the gift of the Holy
Ghost. For the promise is unto
you. and to your children and to
all that are far off, even as
many as the Lord our God shall
call."
With the definite scriptural
plan of salvation in mind, also
with the coming of our Lord so
near, I would like to ask, Are
you ready"'

safety achievement here re
eently during the .'ttiih Annual
Texas Safely Conference &
Fv position.
Forty one awards were pre
settled. The awards go to
operators of commercial and
industrial truck and passenger
car fleets for outstanding safety
performance. Presentation was
at a Tuesday morning breakfast
at the Shamrock Hilton Hotel.
Free advice is a mighty good
way to borrow trouble.
District 30 which will receive
more money based on student
data in the 1972 73 school year
are Hastrop, Elgin, Smilhvllle,
Weimar, Flatonia, La Grange,
Gonzales. Nixon. Smiley, W «?l
der. Lexington, Those schools
which will receive no more
funds would be McDade, Paige.
Columbus, Rice Consolidated,
Favel teville, Cistern. Schulen-
burg, Round Top Carmine.
Giddings, Dime Hox.
To finance this tremendous
increase in educational finance,
the large surplus in the General
Revenue Fund will be utilized
this session. As the state in the
Governor's plan wili continue to
pay approximately 60 percent
of the total cots of the program,
the local school districts must
continue to finance 40 percent.
For the local school districts to
raise their share of increased
funds, the a.J valorem tax
structure must b<? revised, and
the Governor's plan makes no
mention of exactly how such
revisions are to occur.
Stamp Club
Display At
Library
The Bastrop County Stamp
Club has arranged an outstand
ing exhibit entitled "Our
American Heritage in Stamps,"
now on view at the Bastrop
Public Library. The display
consists of stamps, first day
covers, souvenir sheets, phil-
atelic tools, and appropriate
books.
With the nation's history as a
theme, the presentation fea-
tures important events, from
the Boston Tea Party to the
1969 lunar landing. Also
included arc series on Ameri-
can presidents, authors, artists,
poets, composers, and scien-
tists. One section is devoted to
the late President Lyndon B.
Johnson, and yet another on
the development of our
American flag.
The display reveals the wide
variety of materials available to
the beginning collector in this
fascinating field, and the true
artistry of superb design and
color.
Everyone is urged to lake
advantage of this educational
opportunity. The Stamp Club
has achieved a t ruly profession-
al effect, and the distinctive
display will surely attract even
more members to their
enthusiastic group. Their ex
hibit is a Fine contribution to
the Bicentennial festivities.

Convention Is
Held In Taylor
j
What will you do in God's
final war?" This question was
atjked of the 1262 in attendance
at lhe convention of Jehovah's
Witnesses at Taylor High
School. Taylor, Texas this
weekend, reports John Bahn.
Paul D. Moske, District
Supervisor for Texas and parts
of New Mexico and Oklahoma,
delivered the main discourse on
Sunday entitled, "Stand Still
and See the Salvation of
Jehovah."
Moske told his audience to
keep close in mind ihe day of
God's vengeance. "Does your
manner of life now reflect belief
thai the day of Jehovah is near?
Do we view serving God as
casual, an incidental thing, or as
a vital matter worthy of our
best efforts? Do we put it first
in life, with recreation, employ
men!, hobbies, etc., fitted ia
around it?" he asked. "We
should, for world events are
rapidly fulfilling Bible prophecy
as God's day draws near."
All in attendance were
encouraged to associate even
more with fellow Christians,
tfteb. 10:24,25) as this would
give them the needed strength
to face each day and the future.
Saturday 32 new ministers
for Jehovah's Witnesses were
baptized, adding their teaching
abilities to the more than
2,020,000 workers already
active world wide.
