The problem of finances in Utah's schools is both Ber-ious Ber-ious and urgent. '"he present controversy over education is vastly more than a mere personal squabble between the governor and certain educators. ' Untess an adequate solution is found and found quickly, the currest stubborn impasse may prove to be a tragic backward turning point in the history of educa tion in our state. t Our school crisis did not develop overnight The problem has been growing for several years and we have known that it was heading for the crisis level. In an effort ef-fort to understand it and to ind solutions to it, a 60-man 60-man school survey commission was appointed to make a thorogh study of all phases of our educational oppor tunity and responsibility. We believe that a first simple step toward the solution of the school problem can and should be taken. After a careful study of its report, w are convinced that the School Survey Commission did a good job. The findings of this group of public-spirited citizens should get a full hearing not only by the Legislative Council, but by the entire Legislature. ' To assure this consideration, the governor should call a special session of the legislature for the express purpose of hearing the Legislative Council report and . to allow the members of the Legislature to decide for themselves what actions should be taken. Our own study , of the school situation convinces us that a majority of the legislators believe that a special session should be 'called. cms X ' Your funeral director perform many personal service when requested. .
