An array of color in sight and sound
The sounds were as brilliant as the
colors this past weekend when students at Rodney B. Wilson High School
staged Lerner and Loewe's lilting
musical, "Brigadoon." And those who
could force themselves from humming at play's end had nothing but
praise for the production which was
presented three consecutive evenings
to near SRO crowds. Lead roles were
played by Chris Cornell, Bob Friesen,
Tom Fowler, Sheryl Pulliam and
T e r e s , a Smith, but the collective
talents of the entire cast, musicians
and production crew shone brilliantly
and brought steady responses from
the audience which ended with long
applause. The production was under
the direction of Eric VanCamp of the
high school's music department.

supervisors lumbered through a
regular s e s s i o n Monday,considering resolutions from nearby
county s u p e r v i s o r s , mental
h e a l t h , tornado identification,
zoning, county employee insurance programs and a few spur
of the moment suggestions from
their numbers.
Highlight of the morning session was a presentation by Walt
Nickel outlining the needs for a
mental health services program
in Clinton County.
The statement, prepared for
presentation to the supervisors
as well as the Act 54 board which
was f o r m e d to coordinate a
mental health program in the
county, pin-pointed the critical
areas in the county and suggested
the merit of a satellite program
Marie Feldpausch fund
started for kidney machine
The Marie Feldpausch fund
inched its way toward the $5,000
goal this week after employees
of Federal-Mogul Corporation in
St. Johns contributed a total of
$560. The fund, established by
a group of Fowler residents for
the purpose of purchasing a kidney machine for Mrs Feldpausch,
was started this month and contributions have begun coming in
steadily.
To date, a total of $3,900 has
been received. The cost of the
machine is now $2,900 and the
balance of the fund will be needed
for accessories, filters and medications.
Mrs Feldpausch has been on a

to increase the effectiveness of
mental health treatment.
The establishment of a satellite program in the county, to
operate on a budget of $15,000
"looks favorable" Nickel told the
supervisors. This budget, he explained, will be supplemented
with in-kind contributions such
as donation of office space and
consultation rooms, possibly at
the Clinton Memorial Hospital.
C u r r e n t l y , mental health
clients, students and adults, are
being referred to facilities at
Lansing and it is hoped that a
mental health satellite program
in the county will alleviate the
frequent trips between points
in Clinton County and Lansing.
Nickel pointed out that the
principal office will be in the'
Clinton Memorial Hospital but
interview and contact points will
be established at various locations throughout the county.

Individual letters of thanks sent to Federal-Mogul employees
Employees 'afrd management of
Federal - Mogul Corp. have received letters from the Feldpausch children thanking them
for their contribution of over
$560 toward the fund to provide
their mother with a kidney machine.
The letter contained the names
of all seven of the Feldpausch
youngsters, including Tom', 18;
Judy, '17; Debbie, ,16; Beth, 15;
Jerry, 13;- Elren, 11 and Jeff,4 months.

The letter explained the youngsters' desire to thank everyone in
person and briefed each of the
recipients on their mother's current status. A note of thanks also
was extended the women who
took time to organize the collection^ the completion of which
Was' accomplished entirely on
their own time.
'
The four who conducted the
drive were Doris Prowant, Alvina Bast, Julia Gavenda and
Doris Thompson. The latter pair
made a special change of shifts
to insure that all, employees at
Federal - Mogul were contacted
and given an opportunity to share
•in the' contributions.
According to Mrs prowant, the
amount collected averaged out to
approximately $100 per hour and
each of the d o n o r s were encouraged to sign a roster. Nevertheless, many anonymous gifts
were received from donors wish-
ing to have their names omitted

The letter from the Feldpausch
children was mailed to individual
employees and management at
Federal - Mogul and read as
follows:
• "Dear Federal Mogul Employees and Management:

Supervisors approve employee insurance,
deny, rezoning requests
Con'd from Page 1A
the county planning commission
as Chairman Bill Coffey presented d a t a and recommendations regarding requests for r e zoning designations.
The first support came on a
request for the operation of a
gravel pit on Dewitt Road between Stoll and Clark roads. The
commission recommended denial and. the supervisors disapproved the request.
l
The second disapproval was
tossed against a request for r e zoning an area on Taft Road Immediately west of US-27 for construction of a duplex housing
unit. The request had been entered by Robert Smith. The final
denial was extended to Herman
Jack Smif, president of Northwest Salvage Incorporated of Williamston
and several employees have been busy this past week with the tearing
down of a house at 105 Spring Street. Smtr, estimates the age of the
structure at 60 years and says it was unusual in that most of the wood
used in Its construction was oak and maple, (the majority of homes built
at that time were pine).

Agri-Business Involves
Farmers and Consumers
Agriculture and related agribusiness is big business in Michigan. Michigan proHuces agricultural commodities with a retail
value of nearly 2.5 billion dollars
annually.
Latest figures indicate the trend
toward fewer, and larger, farms is
continuing in Michigan, as more
of die rural population seeks life
in suburbia.
At the same rime, value of farms
Is increasing. At the end of 1967,
farm land and buildings in the state
were valued at more than 3.5 billion dollars.
Many residents of Michigan are
surprised to learn that the Department of Agriculture devotes ap-

to the Masonic Lodge for use
to operate a used car lot.
Following these actions the
board approved the appointment
of .'Stan Loznak of Elsie to the
education division of the planning commission.
And finally, after some parliamentary antics, the board approved the installation of an
insurance program June 1, 1969
for all full-time employees and
elected officials in the county.
Included in the benefits are death
payments of $7,500 and $5,000,
based on the amount earned by the
proximately 75 percent of its time
to consumer protection services. ,
Through its programs of meat,
dairy and food inspection, insuring
the purity and wholesomeness of
food supplies, it serves primarily as an agency of protection
for Michigan housewives and their
families. It also checks op plant
pests and diseases which can destroy lawn shrubs, plants and trees.
The department laboratory conducts the necessary tests to support these programs.
WELCOME VISITORS TO NURSING HOMES
Mrs Kitty Becher and Mrs Betty Mabie of the
Rivard Nursing Home in St. Johns extend an i n vitation to all to visit area nursing homes during
the week of May 11 through the 17th. Mrs Becher
lives at 207 S. Swegles Street, and hopes.to go
home soon. She has six children, 17 grandchildren and 22 great grandchildren. She was employed at the E. F. Boron Company for several
years before she retired.
All these activities are carried
out by the department's Bureau of
Consumer Protection, which is
responsible for the administration
of more than 200 laws and regulations involving purity and sanitation of foods, weights and measures
standards for foods and other retail
products, as well as matters affecting the ability to produce and
process foods. _
The Department's activities are
many and varied. Just a few examples of its other areas of responsibility include: the Michigan
State Fair, cooperating with county
fairs throughout the state, the
Racing Commission, various commodity groups such as the Apple,
Bean, Cherry and Potato organizations, and the State Soil Conservation committee.

C l i n t o n area residents who

Veterans Administration w i l l
soon be advised of a new address
for the agency. As of May 9, the
regional office will occupy new
quarters and their address will be
as follows: VA Regional Office,
801 W. Baltimore at Third, P.O.
Box 1117-A, Detroit, Michigan
48232.
At the present time the G. L,
BUI education and training program is the veteran benefit that
most interests returning Viet
Nam era veterans.
This was confirmed by more
than 23,000 such veterans who
e i t h e r mailed or personally
brought to the Veterans Administration a reply card inviting
them to check specific veteran
benefits on which they wanted
more detailed information.
The reply card was enclosed
with a letter which the VA sent
last December to recently discharged veterans reminding them
of the various benefits to which
they were entitled.

T h e next m o s t frequently

information was desired was VA
medical or dental treatment —
58 per cent.
A close third at 52 per cent
'.was the GJ. Bill home loan program.
Employment ranked next at 39
per cent, followed by the VA
hospital program (35 per cent),
on-the-job training (33 per cent),
converted Servicemen's Group
Life Insurance (23 per cent),
and service-connected disability
compensation payments (13 per
cent).
These statistics represent the

the number of cards returned.
Except for their greater interest in on-the-job training (44
compared with 31 per cent), disadvantaged veterans who had not
completed high school before entering service expressed almost
the same degree of interest in
the various veteran benefits as
veterans with a high school education or more.
All of the nearly 75,000 veterans now b e i n g returned to

Michigan, one of only two major
Industrial states boasUng a tollfree highway system, has built
nearly 83 percent of its original allocation of the interstate freeway
network. The national average is
65 percent
Opening of the final section of
the Chrysler Freeway (1-75) in
Detroit in January boosted Michigan's interstate mileage to 893.5.
Michigan's share of the original
41,000-mile national network was
1,081 miles. Congress added 1,500
miles to the system last year and
the Federal Highway Administration allocated 96 miles to Michigan'.
Some of the toughest interstate
construction still lies ahead. This
includes 18 miles of 1-696 through
southern Oakland and Macomb
counties and the portion of 1-96 to
be known as the Jeffries Freeway,
which' will run from downtown
Detroit through some northwest
suburbs.
Other lengthy sections to be
built are the 30-mile 1-275 skirting
metropolitan Detroit on the west
and 22.5 miles of-1-198 in Allegan,
Kent and Ottawa counties.
Construction is under way or
scheduled on:
• M-59 freeway from west of
M-150 east to Utica.
• US-10 from M-115 to US-27
at Clare.
• M-78 from Flint east to Lapeer.
• US-31 from Montague north
to Pentwater.
• US-131 north from Grand
Rapids to near Howard City.
TO
REPRESENT ST. J O H N S AT BOYS' STATE
Bob Rehmann, Mark Barber, Roger Davis and Doug Nicholson have
been chosen to attend Wolverine Boys' State at MSU. The students w i l l
be there for eight days and w i l l learn how the federal government is set
up and run. TKey w i l l meet students from a l l over the state of Michigan
and get first hand experience l i v i n g on campus.
• M-14 from M-153 east to the
planned interchange with 1-96
and 1-275 near Livonia.
• US-127 from Lansing north to
near DeWitt and from US-12
to M-50 south of Jackson.
Speak U p for Michigan!
Have you said anything good about Michigan lately?
Some of us here in Michigan have an inferiority complex—
or maybe it's just a modesty complex. We don't like folks to
think we're bragging, so we go to the opposite extreme and
say nothing at all.
It's time for a change and there's no better time than the
16th annual Michigan Week, May 17-24.
Modesty has no place in Michigan during Michigan Week.
It's a no holds-barred period for unabashedly proclaiming that
this state is the best.
Think positivel Michigan has too many "firsts" for us to
do anything else. Michigan's miles of waterways make our

Golfers 4-4 in current campaign
Jeff Geller is a study in
concentration as he eyes up
a putt on the gveen.
The St. Johns Redwing golf
squad settled into a .500 p e r centage won - loss record this
past weekend after dropping a
close meet to Grand Ledge and
slipping past Waverly In a sudden death playoff. The Redwings I
now stand with a 4-4 season.
Meanwhile, the Jayvees came
through with their fifth and sixth
victories to boost their season
record to 6-0. Their margins
were 193-228 over Grand Ledge
and a sudden death 19-21 win
from Waverly. The Jayvees tie
was at 194 at the end of regular
Play.
The contests were played at
the Clinton County Country Club.
T h e varsity dropped their
match with Grand Ledge by a 166162 count but Lee Lynam paced
the losers with a sizzling 39B
Dave Gaffney was next with a
41. These efforts, however, were
more than matched by the two
low scorers for Grand Ledge,
Jim Sabin and Jeff KUngbiel who
both carded 37s.
The Waverly c o n t e s t was
devoid of any 30s shooters as
both squads tallied 169 points on
a batch of low to mid-40 rounds.
Like their Jayvee counterparts,
the R e d w i n g varsity captured
their sudden-death win-by a 1921 count.

Says consumer can find out
whatfs in his credit report
Any consumer in the Clinton
County area who has been r e fused credit can find out what is
in his credit report by visiting
the Credit Bureau of Clinton
County, a division of Credit
Bureau of Shiawassee County,
Inc., it was announced here by
P. J. Idle, president.
Consumer Interviews by local
credit bureaus are one of the
) principal operating policies included in the Policies for the
Protection of Privacy recently
a d o p t e d by Associated Credit
Bureaus, Inc,, leading trade association in the credit bureau
industry.
The Credit Bureau of Clinton
County is affiliated with ACBand
has adopted the Policies for Protection of Privacy.
T h e credit bureau'pollcies
were formulated by an Advisory
Committee on Protection of Privacy, consisting of 16 representatives of nine consumer trade
associations, and a r e official
* operating policies for the more
t h a n 2,100 independent ACB
credit bureaus.
"Although these policies represent only minor departures
from procedures already being
followed in many far-sighted
credit bureaus," said Idle, "their
adoption will serve to standardize
procedures for all bureaus."
IDLE SAID THAT strong support by credit granters who use
credit bureau services would enable the industry to implement
the guides In a uniform, selfregulatory posture. "We believe
that the relatively few credit
bureaus outside ACB will freely
adopt our code for the good of the
consumer and of free enterprise," Idle said.
The new code provides the
following consumer protections:
1) Bureaus have pledged to
provide trained personnel to explain the credit report and to
advise the consumer on his credit difficulties.
2) Credit bureaus will provide
non-credit-granting, government
a g e n c i e s with identifying information only. Any other information, with the exception of
security investigations, will be
supplied only in response to legal
process.
3) C o n t r a c t s with credit
granters will require that a bona
fide business transaction be involved for each credit report
requested.
4) Specialized information developed for a personnel report
will be kept separate from and
not incorporated into a credit
report.
5) Credit bureaus will record
public record information and
note whether the disposition or
adjudication i s shown in the
bureau file. Credit granters will
be urged by credit bureaus to
inquire further as to the details
and disposition of public record
information which might be of
significance to the c r e d i t decision.
6) CREDIT bureaus will assign
a definite file-life to each kind of
information placed in file. Bankruptcies, for example, will be
deleted 14 years from date of
discharge. With some exceptions,
other items will be kept only
seven years.
The consumer credit industry

Bankers Assn.; American Industrial Bankers Assn.; American
Petroleum Credit Assn.; American Retail Federation; International Consumer Credit Assn.;
N a t i o n a l Consumer Finance
Assn.; National Foundation for
Consumer Credit; National Retail Merchants Assn.; and Associated Credit Bureaus, Inc.
Development of the guidelines
started two years ago when ACB
began an intensive study of the
policies, procedures and operations of member credit bureaus.
"The purpose of this study was

to make certain that credit bureau
members of ACB protected the
privacy of consumers and permitted bona fide credit granters
to i n t e l l i g e n t l y evaluate a
prospective applicantfor credit,"
Idle explained.
"These guidelines are the result of intensive research and
study. They were developed by
credit granters representing all
segments of consumer credit; by
credit bureau managers; through
discussions with state and federal
legislators; and through consultation with educators and attorneys."

The 4-H weather project p r o vides young people with an opportunity to study all aspects

The p r o j e c t includes five
areas: 1) understanding weather,
2) building a weather station,
3) weather maps and forecasting, 4) severe weather and 5)
air pollution and fallout.
Aylsworth says younger youths

Who doesn't like to be remembered? It's natu nil to feel a certain glow when you receive a greeting card. It means that someone has thought of you, that someone cares.
Yet how foolish it would be forutny of us to ever believe that -we are alone or friendless. There
is always Someone who cares, who cares very deeply . , . who cared enough to sacrifice His only Son
for ns.
At times we are all lonesome. Yet we are never really atone. There are few places in the world
where -we cannot} if ive but look, find a church that will welcome us wholeheartedly. God's bouse is
not like other houses. There is always room in it for one more. And when that one more has entered,
there is room for yet another.

Outline practices for
soil erosion control
By ROBERT MOORE,
Director Clinton County
Soil Conservation District
Member State Soil Conservation
Committee
All users of land have a responsibility to control the soil
loss from their land. The farmer,
the real estate developer, the
highway builder, the school house
contractor, and many others have
all in the past allowed too much
valuable top-soil to leave their
lands and flow into our county
drains, rivers, and county tile
lines. Soil kept in place is a lot
less expensive method of sediment control, then, to have todig
up a county tile line, clean the
tile of sediment and re-lay the
line. County drains (open ditches)
are expensive to make clean-outs
eyery few years to maintain them
at their original depth and grade.
When all is considered It is less
expensive for all the .people—if
everyone practices good soil conservation practices and techniques in the management of their
lands.
Some practices that keep topsoil in place are: Cover crops
like Ryegrass, Tall Fescue, Oats,
Rye, and Buckwheat. When developing a farm for real estate
it is good conservation practice
to open only those areas that will
have houses built on them, leaving the- rest in natural cover for
sediment control. The roadside
ditches should be seeded to tall
fescue as soon as the finished
grade is completed—Dig (grade)
—Plant method of road-side ditch
seeding is very successful when
the clay does not get an opportunity to dry out before the seed
is spread on the surface.
Another successful conserva-
tion practice is to seed the play
areas of a school ground as soon
as leveling Is done, but before
construction of the building
starts. This method allows the
new seeding to be three or four
years old before the children
start to use the building— The
feet are not as hard on a three
year old sod as they are on a new
seeding made after the children
get into the building.
o
growth for
Windbreak plantings of conifers are a good conservation
practice to stop wind erosion. A
good evergreen windbreak that
shields the newly leveled soil
for a street so It does not blow
Into existing houses. The developer that p l a n t s and plans
ahead of his actual construction
of the sub-division, w i l l be
thanked by housewives in their
new homes. I believe, that District chairman Stanley Balrd in
his annual report to the Clinton
County Board of Supervisors on
April 15, 1969 expressed the
directors' thinking on sediment
control when he said, "We as
directors are interested in the
control of sediment from our
agricultural lands, roads, and developing subdivisions. We hope
to be able to work more with the
Clinton County
' county agencies in the future, to
News
establish guide lines that will
c o n t r o l sediment in proposed
subdivisions. We wonder, if all
the peoplewouldbe better served,
if applications for subdivisions
were referred to the district to
have soil's capability and limitations recorded on the area under
proposed development before any
county agency makes a tentative
F i e l d beans and soybeans
approval to the developer. Some grown on organic or dark-colored
counties in some states are doing sandy soils often need mangathis—this seems to have merit, nese, according to M a u r i c e
and we as directors, will be happy Vitosh, MichiganState University
soil scientist.
Beans need
manganese
"This is especially true if the
soil pH is higher than 5.8," he
says. "Lake bed soils or depressional areas that have grey
subsoil color and a pH above
6.5 are also likely to respond to
manganese fertilizers."
To p r e v e n t manganese deficiencies on these soils, Vitosh
recommends applying 5 to 10
pounds of manganese per acre.
He says the manganese should be
mixed with the fertilizer and applied X$ a, band, about one inch to
the side and two inches below the
seed.
April Showers bring May Flowers—
And also bring the Grass.
Flowers bloom, then fade away—
They're not supposed to last.
GRASS is quite another thing—
We think it's here to stay.
Totkeep J t looking at its best—
. C u V i t ' f h e ""SlMPLlCfTY.WAY"!'
"Foliar applications of manganese are also effective and
often preferred, especially in
the production of soybeans," he
notes.

Two years of continuous growth
-topped by a "BoaLbusting" statewide membership of 54,200 families, has been announced by the
Michigan Farm Bureau,
The membership growth report
was made during a regular
s e s s i o n of the organization's
board of directors meeting in
Lansing, April 29.
Unlike other farm groups which
base their membership count on
individuals, Farm Bureau considers a total family as a single
membership. As a result, the
54,000 figure could be doubled or
tripled for size comparison,
making the organization by far
the largest farm group in the
state.
Telegrams to Michigan Farm
Bureau President Elton Smith
from American Farm Bureau officials cited Michigan as the
second state in the midwest a*nd
fifth in the nation to reach state
and national Farm Bureau mem-""
bershlp goals.
The membership gainwasseen
as especially significant—coming
as it does in a period of declining
farm numbers and lower farm
income.
•It shows that farmers are
getting set to ,meet their problems- head-on," Smi'th said. He
noted sharp increases in the
o r g a n i z a t i o n ' s membership
throughout the nation, specifically 90,000 more family memberships reported in the American Farm Bureau Federation
compared to last year at this
time.
. Jubilant county leaders and
local. Farm Bureau membership
workers have been holding "Victory" celebrations in many parts
of the state, in some cases, the
occasions have been combined
with observance of the 50th anniversary of the founding of Farm
Bureau in Michigan. It was in
1919 that farmers met on the
campus of the "Michigan Agricultural College" (as Michigan
State University was then called)
in East Lansing, to form the
state organization.

Soil Stewardship Week
Continued
Soil Stewardship Week, a nationwide observance which places
emphasis on man's obligation to
God as stewards of the soil,
w a t e r and other related resources, w i l l be c e l e b r a t e d
locally May 11-18, according to
Stanley Balrd, chairman of the
Clinton Soil Conservation District.
This year's observance with
the theme, "Confronting The
Issues" underscores the responsibility which each citizen has in
dealing forthrightly with current
issues involving stewardship of
renewable n a t u r a l resources.
The Clinton County Conservation
District and some 3,000 companion districts throughout the
nation along with their state and
national associations are sponsoring .the event for the 15th
consecutive year.
The Clinton County Conservation District has distributed, upon
request to churches of all faiths,
b u l l e t i n inserts and booklets

year's observance.
The materials were prepared

in the attractively Illustrated
booklet, emphasis is placed upon
confronting today's issues in this
complex world.
For example, the booklet points
out:
"In a million small worlds,
as well as in the great one, our
lives become ever more complex.
Our attitudes toward natural resources, as toward so many other
values, are changing. We are increasingly worried about resource quality. We become more
particular about resource uses.
And out of these growing concerns an array of issues has
emerged requiring Judgment. We
must consider'these issues."

For tho^e who think big and want a
little extra beef between their car
and the road . . . There's a fatter
fatSO at Armstrong.
fatSOS offer all the good things
you've.heard about in wide tracks.
Lots of rubber to grip the road.
Great cornering. Smart looks. "
Beneath his rubber hide, and above
the polyester cords, are two belts
of fiber glass. They keep the tread
firm and tough. And you can expect
as much as 40,000 miles of wear
from fatSOS.
A fiber glass fatSO means a cool
tire. It's subject to less scuffing and
squirming and abrasion than the
ordinary tire. And you can virtually
forget about blowouts.

Shallow planting can get your corn off to a fast and
vigorous start. This picture shows the contrast In root
development between shallow and deeply planted seed.
According to tests conducted by DeKatb AgResearch, Inc., corn
planted at about 2 inches results In the best stands and
produces the healthiest root system. This stronger root system
has a better capacity to absorb water and nutrients and has
the ability to help the plant'bounce back faster if it should
experience a late frost. Shallow planting is a w a y to boost
profits without increasing expenses.

The pictures showed a graduation class putting on a drama

The argument that the United
States Supreme Court is actually
writing social legislation rather
than Interpreting the Constitution
has been raised once again. A
Supreme Courtdeclslonlastweek
dealing with welfare may have a
v e r y important effect In Michigan.
It is feared by many in state
government that roving tribes of
welfare "gypsies" might be the
result of a high court ruling that
o n e - y e a r residency requirements'for welfare recipients in
Michigan and 39 other states are
unconstitutional.
This decision is bound to increase the number of persons migrating from one area of the
country to another to 'take advantage of higher welfare payments.
Since Michigan has done more
than most other states to provide assistance to its poverty
stricken citizens, naturally our
state will be high on the priority
list of nomadic welfare seekers.
This influx of new welfare recipients from other states will
have two effects. It will cost the
taxpayers of Michigan m o r e
money, and will decrease service to Michigan residents receiving welfare.
What the Supreme Court Is now
requiring-is that Michigan, New
York and other states with relatively high" welfare assistance
foot the billfor overstates which
have failed to provide adequately
for, their own citizens.

There is no clear estimate of
how much this ruling will cost
Michigan, but it' is anticipated
that the additional federal expense will be $125 to $175 million. Welfare costs in this state
during the next year are estimated at over $500 million, with
about $230 million coming from
state funds. The' new Supreme
Court welfare rules will undoubtedly, boost that figure, although some state officials say
they aren't too worried. Accord-

The great political oversellt
A few years ago enthusiastic
proponents of school consolidation convinced many rural property owners that this would be
much more efficient and millage
increases would not be needed in
the future.
Two years ago supporters of a
statewide income tax convinced
many school administrators and
local property taxpayers that this
was a complete answer to school
finance problems.
Consolidated schools may be
educationally superior, they may
be more efficient. They have not
eliminated the need for more
operating millage. The income
tax has made possible increases
in state aid to public schools and
colleges. It has brought in money
'for public health, medicare and
social services. It eliminated
pay l e s s paydays and allowed
minor property tax relief through
exemptions for senior citizens
and farmers personal property.
It has not jbeen a complete answer to school finance or the
property tax problem.

think it is due to the fact that we

looking for.
The Spencer Plan imposes an
additional 1 1/2 per cent personal and 3 per cent corporate
income tax with the proceeds to
go to local districts. Distribution of aid Is based on the willingness of the local district to tax
Itself. Poor districts will have
about the sanielo spend as richer
districts if they impose equaTlocal m'lllage. Twelve1 millsopera*
ting will produce $550.00 per
student, 15 mills, $640.00 and
20 mills, $800.00. Local income
tax, up to 2 per cent, can be
imposed in. place of part of the
millage but aid drops off if less
than 12 mills are imposed.
In many of bur school districts
dropping back to 12 mills for
operating schools would not be a
large, drop In total property tax.
Some districts might like to impose more than 12 mills to take
full advantage of state aid and
run an outstanding school system.
Does this mean I am against
It? NoPI am a co-sponsor. I think
it is a solid step in the right
direction. It would assure, even
at the basic 12 mills with no
additional, more money for local
schools than many presently get
with around'20. mills. It emphasizes local control and local
responsibility. It shifts burden
for schools from local property
tax toward a statewide . tax. In
some areas It would provide substantial property tax reduction.
While the Spencer Plan is

primarily property tax reduction.
I do not want to be a party to
selling It on that basis.

"Music enriches l i f e "
theme for Music W e e k
A short while ago Astronaut
Wally Schlrra said: "In myyouth
I studied trumpet for about eight
years . , From the study of
music I appreciated all phases
of music. I think this is the
important part, I would encourage anyone to at least apply yourself to studying music rather than
just waiting for It to come to
you."
Studying music or being able
to play an instrument may not
make you an astronaut, but It
certainly will enrich your life
in all kinds of wonderful ways.
That's something to keep in mind,
especially this week.
May 4-11 is National Music
Week, an annual observance
sponsored bytheNationalFederation of Music Clubs and its
600,000 members.
The theme for this year's
celebration Is "Music Enriches
Life". And indeed it does for
America's 44 million amateur
music makers. Just ask them.
Just ask the cast of "Brigadoon". Their performances have
c e r t a i n l y heralded National
Music Week for residents of St.
Johns.
Remember, m u s i c is for
everyone. It offers challenges
as well as rewards. Why not
