Wife of Truck Driver
Seeking Her Husband
Rockdale County
varand Jury suggests
jail mouse Kepair
Dalton, Ga. — The wife of a
missing truck driver leaves here
Friday for Columbus seeking infor
mation to the whereabouts of her
husband, A. L. Taylor.
Mrs. Taylor said she, her 14-
year old raughter and the wife of
another truck driver plan to take
the "trucker’s route.” "We’re going
to stop at every truck stop and
service station, any place where he
might have stopped to try to find
somebody who saw him,” Mrs
Taylor said.
Taylor, a veteran driver, disap
peared six days ago while en route
to Jacksonville with a $14,000 car
go of cheese.
The truck and cargo were found
on a Columbus street three days
after Taylor was due in Jackson
ville.
Most any competent worker can

Conyers, Ga. — The Rockdale
.oumy jail is a disgrace to the
w ny oi Conyers and Rockdale
County and snould be torn down,
uccoru.ag to the Rockdale County
Grand jury.
It is not a disgrace and it prob
ably won’t be torn down any time
soon because “nobedy in the coun
ty pays any attention to what the
grand jury says,” according to
Sheriff Walter McCart.
"Considering that the jail was
built back in ’97, it’s a pretty good
jail,” the sheriff said Monday. “My
wife and I have lived in it pretty
well for 20 years. Of course, it
needs painting. But the plumbing
is all right. And you can build a
fire with cord wood on a cell floor
and not have to worry about burn
ing the jail.”
As for building a new jail, the
sheriff thinks that would be nice,
but—
“This little old county — in debt
and all — can’t afford a new jail”
he said.
Negroes’ Rights
Reported Violated
In Coweta County
Newnan, Ga. — Coweta Circuit
Sol. Gen. Wright Lipford says that
the Oct. 6th kidnaping and flog
ging of two Negroes was the third
incident within three months in
which the rights of Negroes were
violated by "thugs” in Carroll
county.
But the Oct. 6 incident is the
first in which the Negro victims
were willing to press charges, Lip-
ford said.
In August, Lipford said, a group
of white men raided a negro drag
racing strip, dragged two Negro
drivers from their cars and beat
them. This incident occurred near
Bowdon. The Negroes involved re
fused to press charges.

vviek in July 1959. The accident oc-
clijrEed as Mrs. Griffin, wife of H.L.

What Everyone
Should Know About
Financing Schools
(A series of Articles from Taylor
Local Unit of G.E.A.)
The Lo:al School Budget
Each community in the. United
States annually prepares a school
budget, which defines the school
program, what it will cost, and
how the money is to be raised. A
budget, however, is far more than
a statement of costs and sources
of money. It states in financial
terms the community’s ideas as to
what it expects from its invest
ment in education. The school bud
get is the community’s financial
answers to a number of educational
questions.
Critical Educational Questions
Does the community look on its
schools merely as custodial agen
cies which keep children and
youth off the streets and which
teach them a modicum of knowl
edge and simpe skills? Or does it
expect its schools not only to
transmit informed citizens, more
trained manpower, better use of
leisure time, increased productivi
ty, higher living standards, and
greater national security? These
are the returns which nations re
ceive when they invest generous
ly and wisely in education.
Does the community expect its
schools to treat pupils as auto
matons, to be taught and tested on
a mass basis, expected to conform
to a single curriculum, with many
leaving school with a sense of
failure at the end of elementary
school or soon thereafter? Or does
the community expect its schools
to treat pupils as individuals who
vary enormously in abilities, in
terests, and goals, and to develop
fully the talents of each individual
pupil?
Research has shown that the two
most powerful factors in produc
ing quality education are what a
community expects of its schools
and what it spends to finance
them. If it expects little and spends
little, the educational returns are
likely to be small. If it expects
much and spends much, the edu
cational returns are likely to be
large.
To know whether a budget "is
sufficient to finance quality
schools, one needs to ask a num
ber of searching questions:
1. What class size will the bud
get finance? Does it contemplate
individual or mass instruction?
2. Will the budget provide mod
ern instructional materials?
3. Does it provide for specialists,
to aid teachers in improving 'in
struction in arithmetic and read
ing?
4. Is there provisions for de-
Montezuma Planning
Additional Service
Montezuma, Ga. — The Monte
zuma City Council will have a
special meeting Monday night to
continue discussion of proposed
sewerage service to ail areas of the
ritv, pumping stations and new
lines, and a new sewage treatment
plant which would cost the com
munity $506,000.
The federal government has
made a grant of $126,300 for the
project according to Mayor C. P.
Savage. The balance of $380,000
would be financed by the sale of
revenue certificate bonds to be re
paid over a 30 year period.
To finance the program the city
will need about $25,000 per year
additional revenue. It is proposed
that this amount be raised by an
increased sewerage charge to $2.00
increase in minimum water charge
to $3.50 and increased rate for
water used in excess of the mini
mum.
It was pointed out that Monte
zuma now has one of the lowest
water rates in the area.

veloping instructional programs to
meet the needs of certain special
groups, such as the physically
handicapped, the slow learners,
and the academically talented?
5. Is there provision for counsel
ing and guidance programs to aid
pupils and parents in planning
educational and vocational car
eers? ,
6. Is the salary schedule one
which will attract and hold quali
ty teachers — one which pays be
ginning and average salaries com
parable to those paid other profes
sionals in the region?
7. Is a summer school provided
to meet the special needs of those
who would otherwise be required
to repeat a grade at a full year’s
cost, of pupils qualified to make
an extra grade, and of a highly
gifted pupils?
8. Is there provision for a pro
gram using school buildings as
community centers, and for recre
ation activities using school play
grounds after school and during
the summer vacations?
Affirmative answers to such ques
tions regarding the budget as those
above willt.be decisive in determ
ining the duality of the schools of,
a community?
