Milford News; One thing this special election is doing, if nothing else, is creating interest in our schools among the parents and taxpayers. I am very pleased with this result I think the parents In Milford have been too prone to lethargy, A.a are the sole thinking that the P.-agencies for school Interest by parents, and then not taking an active interest in the P.-A.a. The creation of new interest in the schools is bound to result in better schools. Lack of interest by Milford parents Is bound to result in better schools in other areas and better schools in our own home community. have another idea I'd like to present to the school board through your newspaper. It follows from the above. School board members, as I view it. are ervants of the taxpayers and parent They operate the biggest business in Beaver County and the tax- payers and parents are stockholders. As such' they are entitled to share in the operation of the buslnesa. I have noticed in the past that ofttimes suggestions made by parents to the school board or to Individual members are brushed off or ignored, and aomctimes persons making auggestiona are treated as rang interlopers. This is not right. There are suggestions ometlmes offered for the betterment of the schools that have merit and ahould be Adopted. There are other auggestiona that have merit but for practical or financial reasons cannot be adopted. Reason! for could be explained. There are other auggestiona or gripes without merit. But taxpayers and parent have no means of presenting their views and suggestions excepting when the board Is in session, and then the board is impatient, perhaps because they have much other business to transact and lack the time to be patient, but this irks the person who has traveled a long distance to present his views. There is an answer. This is it: n Why not a meeting monthly or each two months, alternating between Beaver, Minersville and Milford The school board should attend, and the superintendent of schools, and all P.-A. officers, but the meeting would be open to all. Problems and suggestions could be presented, discussed and aired. 1 am confident that many misunderstandings could be eliminated if there was an open forum and frank discussion. Much good could result for I do not subscribe to the theory that the school board members are perfect Of course, the rules of the meeting would be that problems concerning individual school children, their progress, etc.. would not be1 a proper subject for discussion, since these problems should be properly taktn up with teachers and principals not the school board or at such a I see no possible objections to forum a ' stockholders' meeting" in connection with the board of directors (school board members) of the school system The school board should welcome closer cooperation. now r quest the school board to accept or reject the idea on a trial I want the present misunderbasis standings and street-corne- r gripings to he eliminated. I think the possible benefit is worth the effort. No possible harm can result.

UTAH Q Q Q on April 22nd and 23rd. I hope the school board will issue a public invitation for parents of school children and others to accompany them and be a part of the inspection trip. I HOPE THE SCHOOL BOARD WILL UNBEND AND MAKE SOME EFFORT TO WORK WITH TAXPAYERS AND PARENTS, AND NOT REMAIN ALOOF ON A HIGH. AND MIGHTY PEDESTAL. GIVING THE ATTITUDE THAT ALL CITIZENS ARE INTRUDERS. Incidentally, at meetings such as proposed, open discussion could be had respecting teacher - parent relations, r relations, school board-genera- l public relations, qualification of teachers, proposals ior adding to or changing the curriculum, additions to and improvements to various school plants, the cost thereof, etc. Parents and taxpayers are interested in these matters or should be. And such proposals ought not be kept a secret until after they have been put into effect. Speaking of improvements, I seem to remember that the lighting on the Milford football field was installed at a cost to the school board of about $600 with the balance being raised in Milford. Isn't there a proposal now that the school board spend something more than $3500 for similar lights on the Beaver field, with Beaver citizens to stand about $1000? Possibly the boarf will justify this expenditure by pointing to proposed improvements to Milford grounds, but the Beaver grounds have had improvements in the past and so equitable considerations fall flat if such justification is made. But those things are in the future and If I am wrong about the above, such open meetings as I propose would eliminate the misunderstanding. I don't know yet whether your current edition will have anything from the school board on what it proposes to do with the additional tax money if voted. I hope it does. If not. I want to say that more voters than you think are asking the question, "What will be done with the extra money?' If the school board will commit itself to the fact that the extra money will go into raises for teachers and principals (where called for) and Into specified improvements. WITHOUT DISTURBING PAST ALLOCATIONS FOR -THOSE PURPOSES. I think.. the people will vote the increase. ''All the talk and propaganda about the necessity for increased taxes has been based on the raising of teachers' salaries but I have not seen public assurance that the additional money will be used for that good purpose, and for "needed" improvements Another thing. Does the school board plan to raise the salaries of the school clerk and county superintendent. If so, I am not for it. The clerk now draws a MUCH higher salary than is paid to any official In the county court house, and the superintendent salary is more than double that of most of our county officers. Let's have some assurances. I am not going to buy a "pig in a poke" or COMMIT MYSELF to additional taxes for many years to come 'without SOME school-newspape- ' UTAH STATE SOIL CONSERVATION COMMITTEE NEW LICENSES IN FIELD Leoil Noice of Election of Thre Superrisors for the Beginning Friday.
