Show Governor Urges Voters To Vote For Proposals MURRAY. Gov. Calvin Rampton, in a talk here Monday, urged passage of all five proposed matters. These amendments are not partisan issues," Gov. Rampton stressed in his talk. "They were approved to go on the by a legislature which was roughly 80 Republican, so it's obvious politics played no part in their passage. In his analysis, the speaker broke down Propositions 1 and 2 as bearing on the powers, functions and reimbursement of the legislature. No. 1, he explained, calls for a biennial budget session of the legislature. Budget matters are properly a function of the legisafter lature, he argued, pointing out to his audience the difficulties of budgeting state expenditures well over a year in advance. In this recitation, he stressed that both his own adminstration and that of Gov. Ceorge D.

These men are the directors of a multi-millidollar corporation, said the governor, and we can't expect to get the very best men unless they're paid a decent amount for serving. As the late Wendell Grover put it, 'Only the retired, the subsidized and the affluent can afford to be a member of the legislature'. A man on a salary can't afford to give up his salary in order to serve in the legis lature as it now stands, he We need to change said. that situation." In discussing Proposition No. 3, the governor compared its potential good in the bus iness community with the state's economic gains as a result of the "Freeport" amendment. The proposal would remove the inventory tax. The State Tax Commission feels it would cost the state a considerable amount of revenue in the beginning, but proponents believe this but which would come back later through the stimulation it would provide business firms.

Dear Sir: response to a previous letter exalting Professional Educators to Murray Board of Education, I would like to ask the following questions: 1. Can an Educator do a better job as an advisor on construction than an Engineer or an Architect? 2. Can an Educator be more effective as a Board Member on a legal matter than an Attorney? 3. Can an Educator be more effective on Industrial Relations than a Business or Labor Leader? 4. Is it wise for the Educator to direct his own actions from administration as well as basic policy on taxation, negotiations and other functions of the School Board? These and other questions I ask with deep concern about only Educators being qualified to serve on the Murray Board of Education.

Well, wouldn't that be nice, with teachers on the school board, all they'd have to do is get a little pressure from their union, and presto, the voting would go that way. The school board has to be objective in order to be the balance wheel it should be. It must consider the community, the taxpayers, the students and the teachers. And any teacher would consider the teacher first, second and finally, and to heck with what the community or students The fact that they need. close the schools by striking only proves my point.
