Note news release comes from a for- mer member of the Sevier School Board, and expresses an indi- vidual opinion regarding the School Bond Election, March 25th. Polls will be open from a.m. until 8 p.m., and this newspaper urges every eligible taxpayer to cast a ballot.) The Board of Education in Sevier County in years past have been elected by the voters for the purpose of administering the educational program and facili- ties of the district. Three years ago, your Board a Superintendent that, in my opinion, is one of the most capable men in the State of Utah, He is putting forth every effort to improve the type of instrue- tion to be given in this district, He has already made many im- provements. Mr. Bennett has a plan, and knows what his ob- jectives are. To reach these objectives, he needs the help of every citizen in Sevier County. Let us do our share and give him our full cooperation. As an member, I feel that the voters have made a wise selection in electing each member of the Board of Education. You now have a body to represent you that is honest, capable, and qualified to make decismns for you I know from experience that this Board is not sectional, selfish, or predisposed to snap judgement. Decisions are made only after thorough stu y o eac pro em. For several years your Board has known that a serious prob- lem faced them in the Salina and Richfield areas. The old elementary building in Salina is probably one of the worst fire traps in the state of Utah. It must be replaced. Very few people need to be told of the ex-Boa- rd North Sevier High School in Salina had the highest attend- a nee record in the Sevier Dis- trict, according to figures re- leased for February, 1959. The Sevier school registered a high 98.75, as compared to 96.74 for South Sevier High School, and 95.84 for Richfield High. Percentage of attendance for the elementary schools and Junior High Schools in the Dis- trict were: Redmond Elemen- tary, 97.81; Salina Elementary, 96.69; Aurora Elementary, 98 68; Ashman Elementary, 97.03; Pah- vant Elementary, 87.79; Elsinore Elementary, 94.38; Monroe Ele- 96.07; Koosharem, mentary, Richfield Jr. High, 96 89; South Sevier Jr. High, 95.46. condition of the Richfield High School and the need for addi- tional space at that school brought about by the growth of this locality. Your School Board thinks in terms of the entire district, and 0f the welfare of each and every child in the district. He must raise his level of thinking to cover the entire district, in order t0 be of any value on the Board, yith the type of Board that we have at present, any building need in any part of the county wjjj get just an(j, fajr consider- ation. Your Board of Education, through necessity, has made the decision to construct a new school at Salina and one at Rich- field. To do this with the least saCrifice on the part of the tax- payer they have asked the voters of this county for their permission to sell additional bonds. The laws of the State of Utah requires that the District have the money on hand before any construction is started. The only way the Board has of getting this money is to float ad-- 7 ditional bonds. These bonds will not add a mill to the present school levy, and will be paid off, including the interest, over a period of years, using the levy now on. I would like to impress upon you that you have elected a Board of Education to work for d you, but you still have tions to meet. Give them the money they so sorely need. Give them and the fine children of this district your full cooper- ation. Above all, give your children, the Superintendent, and the Board of Education, a vote of confidence by voting Yes at the Bond Election.'

On the other hand, little or nothing has been done by livestock producers to improve their marketing power to cope with this new situation. At these meetings with Dr. Taylor, the livestock producers voted unanimously to go ward with investigations and study toward the improvement of their livestock market situ- ation. A county livestock market committee was selected, includ- ing: Vernon Johnson, Aurora, chairman; Francis Gurney, Lost Creek, vice chairman; R. D.
