HAVE UNIT SYSTFIYI?
Fellow Voters:
This is a very important ques
tion and should be well consider-
local tax for schools it. is needed,
so why should we force
is not wanted, and where, if the
people had long terms of school
they would not send their
children?
Why should you pay out your
money to support a school in a
non-interested community and
where the people haven’t am
bition enough to vote local tax
themselves?
Why should you vote the
County Unit School System
thereby shortening the length of
your school term and robbing
your own children, in order to
lengthen the term of school for
people who are not interested
and will not send to school as it
is?
It is true, is those counties
having local tax that many
schools are running with just a
few pupils, and the teachers
“sitting” their time out and re
ceiving for pratctically nothing.
While in other communities the
people want longer terms of
school and have no power to get
it. When you vote the County
Unit System you vote away most
of the powers of the local teach
ers. At present the trustees
have the power to select, fix the
salaries and dismiss tl\e teachers
and settle all the trouble that
may arise; build houses, dig
wells and make all necessary
repairs, etc. Under the County
Unit System the County Board
has all the powers. If the
County Board makes a bad
selection of a teacher for your
school your must abide by their
choice.
If you get a good teacher and
wish to keep him more than one
term and the board sees fit to
place another teacher in the
position again you have no power
of selecting your teacher.
Now Mr. Voter don’t be mis
led in regard to this County
Uunit System. You need and
should have locai tax in your
district; but you do not need the
county unit system.
With so many districts already
having local tax and running 8
or 9 months, it would be a
horrible injustice to vote the
County Unit System and shorten
their terms perhaps to six or
seven months.
Now* fellow voter consider
this question well before you
cast your ballot in favor of same.
Respectfully,
A. F. Johnson.
