OB a
SPECIAL — It’s no
seCTet...4-H is growing... And
it’s growing in many
directions including into
America’s largest cities.
A record five million
young people are
participating in some phase of
the 4-H program. They come
from all segments of society
including urban centers as
well as America’s farms.
Neither their economic and
cultural backgrounds nor
their place of residence
provide barriers to learning in
the informal 4-H youth
education program.
Three of 10 4-H members
reside on farms, 43 percent
live in rural towns and

CONCERNING LOCAL
PROPERTY TAXES:
State Law requires local boards of education to collect a certain
amount of money each year to be applied to the State Minimum Program
of Education. This money has to come from the local property tax.
The law was written so that the local amount would increase each
year. Below is an illustration of how this worked.
System 1971-72 1972-73 Increase over
previous year.
Chickamauga $34 t U12.0U $^7f309»51 $12,897.^7
Chattooga 174,159.63 272,749.63 98,589.69
Dade 116,788.46 187,227.92 70,439.46
Trion 97,630.84 113,797.79 16,166.95
Walker 576,255.35 756,949.68
Total increase over last year, District 53 $3?8,787.90
I supported a move to correct this situation. Our efforts were success
ful and the law that caused this yearly increase was amended to elimin
ate the increase feature. The change in the law made substantial reduct
ions in the proposed taxes for the 1972-73 fiscal year. This change is
shown in the table below.
Chickamauga from $47,309.51 reduced to $32,038.33 saving ^5t271*18
Chattooga 272,749.63 S’SVm
Dade 187,227.92
Trion 113,797.79 77,064.65
Walker 756,949.68 512.6U.54 244,338.14
This is in favor of the local property taxpayer. No new tax was passed
in the place of this. It was done through economy and careful use of
funds available for budget purposes.
I shall continue to practice economy and fairness in your behalf.
