Letters to the Editor Dec. 11, 1960 Sirs: After living thru the battle o Little Rock and now listening t< what is happening in New Or leans, the struggle over O’Neill’! bond issue sounds mild. Usually, the so called Progres sives consist to a large extent o] utility employees and chain store managers. Many of them will noi stay long enough to pay out the bonds. Of ccurse, quite a few arc people who will pay. Some of the Conservatives are downright stingy, but most ol ’em just want to pay as they go Our educators do run too much toward atheletics, why train 11 boys as athletes, while 764 other pupils do no heavier training than putting records on hi-fi? Parents are largely to blame, as few students do home work. The schools teach social activities but not how to make a living. Before a construction contract is let explore every means of low ering the cost. First, is the lane costing too much? Next, the type of construction. I note one Okla homa school was built at half the Federal estimate, because they used local material and local la bor. On most contracts, the high wages and profits go to outsiders. On the other school house, the board never consulted any local dealer. As a consequence, the gas hot plates in the domestic science room were unsafe and of a type discarded 25 years before.. And they paid the contractor without finding out that the gas line had never been run thru the 16 inch outside concrete wall. However, the person who wrote “There Is No Santa Claus” is correct. When you get Federal money you pay thru the nose, The letter from the seventh grader who just might have to get up at 6:30 a.m. almost broke my poor heart. Do all these kids expect to grow up as bankers and golf their lives away? Some of our neighbors kids get on a cold bus at 6:30 and ride 50 miles. “Business Man” talks about driving away farmers. While I realize Holt County farmers are the toughest and meanest lot on earth, they hardly ever bite you if you pay ’em a reasonable price for their produce and don’t over charge 'em on everything you sell.
