LET’S NOT CLOUD THE ISSUE
Just now Denison is facing again the
matter of having an election called for the
purpose of having a more adequate finan-
cial basis for our city schools. Part of the
proposed 50 cents additional tax on the
$100 valuation is to go for better pay for
our teachers and part for construction of
buildings and improvement of present
buildings.
These are paramount musts for Deni-
son. They come first above all other things
needed. We can do without some things,
but our children’s education can not wait.
We have too long waited to do something
about this matter. Our election on that
score a few weeks back had the whole is-
sue so clouded up that the people, not be-
ing able to interpret it clearly turned down
the whole program. We must not make
that mistake again.
Now come various citizens with the
idea of saving on election costs, and also
motivated with the thought that they can’t
wait another two years to get through
certain measures which mean a change of
charter, and seek to add these issues on
the same ticket.
Meritorious as these issues may be.
they do not comport with the matter of j
11ist consideration ol our boys and girls.
1'lie recent citizens group named by the
city commissioners was appointed with the
hope of bringing a program of concerted
action by these gentlemen. They may
agree, or may not agree 100 per cent on
whether to add other measures to the pro-
posed school betterment ticket. It would
ne desirable if they could and if we as
lhe bulk of the citizenry could do the same
tiling and all vote for Denison forward.
Denison could well afford to spend
the relatively small sum required to get a
million dollar viaduct. We need a more
adequate support of our city library. But
getting all the people to see this is some-
thing we must consider in the light of how
they voted at the other election when we
presented something more than the
school’s interests.

they seem to not get the idea of their own
need to do likewise?
