It was requested that the following ques- tions be submitted to the Board of Education for answering. Questions 2. What has happened to the last increase of 5 mills? Answer: Last year the school electors voted to establish a Building and Site Sinking Fund and directed the Board of Edu- cation to levy a 5 mill tax for a period of five years. In accord- ance with this mandate from the school electors such a tax was levied and it has produced a lit- tle more than $33,000. This money and the collections next year (about the same amount) will be used to pay a part of the cost of constructing the first unit of the new high school. But, these two years collections are not enough. Therefore, it is necessary to vote on a bond issue of sufficient size to pay the balance needed to construct the first unit. 3. Haw long does this increase in taxes continue? Answer: Five years. Because of the 15 Mill Tax Limitation Amendment to the States. Consti- tution nce governmental unit out- side of certain chartered cities may increase its taxes beyond the 15 mills without a 2/3 vote of its citizen -electors and in no case beyond five years. 7. If we do not -vote for an in- crease in taxes and cannot start a new building, what will we do with the high school students? Answer. The overburdened facilities of neighboring high schools have made it necessary that Livonia Township Schools retain the ninth grade within the district this coming year, creating an extremely overcrowded con- dition in our ` schools. To house our pupils it will be necessary to put some of the lower grades on half day sessions and to com- -bine classes. This means more than 40 pupils per classroom. The only solution to this problem is to build a high school. Last year the board had every reason to believe that there would be Fed- eral and State aid available for buildings. Legislation was peel ing in Congress and the state had a surplus of $50,000,000. Neither materialized. The $50,000,000 state surplus was earmarked for G.Ls by the legislature at the special session. Because of this it will be necessary to float a bond issue to build and pay for the first unit in five years. After careful study and consultation with lead- ing authorities concerning the best method of solving Livonia's school building needs the Board of Education has accepted their recommendations. Under school laws of this state, the Board of Education has no authority to bond the district, nor to increase the tax levy without first getting school electors. All the board may do is ascertain the facts concern- ing the needs. Once these facts are available it is their duty and their responsibility to present the facts to the school electors. It is the school electors who make the final decision. Briefly, this is the problem. (1) We must retain our own ninth grade pupils next year. (2) We must house them in al- ready crowded classrooms. (3) We must build a 14 room unit of the proposed high school and have it ready for occupancy by September 1, 1947. If this is Before ... AFTER Sweetest story ever told!'

Westbrook & Fenkell Phone Redford 3100 not done, at least 10 additional groups will have to go on half day sessions in 1947. (4) The Board of Education must inform the electors of their needs and the best method for the solution of their problem. (5) The electors decide what is to be done. Therefore, at the spe- cial election to be called on June 8, the school electors will decide what is to be done about the fol- lowing issues: Shall the Board of Education provide high school facilities for ninth grade students and other high school grades? Shall we bond the district for a period of five years to build the first unit of the high school? Shall we tax ourselves an ad- ditional amount to pay for the bonds and the interest? 11. What is meant by the bond issue? Answer: In the case of the school district, it is an obligation in writing issued by the Board of Education with the authority of the qualified school electors (taxpayers) to pay a principal sum on a certain date, with in- terest. Whenever a school district finds it necessary and urgent to construct buildings, and it does not have the money to construct buildings then it must borrow. Under the General School Laws of the State of Michigan the of- ficers of the school district have no authority to borrow and issue bonds without an affirmative ma- jority vote of the tax paying electors. This permission is what the school electors are voting for on June 8. Before me, even as behind, GO IS—and ALL is WELL.— YOU'VE TRIED THE REST, NOW USE THE BEST .. .

During the afternoon; Miss Flor- ence Stroll, psychiatric social worker for the Detroit Children's Center, gave a very interesting talk on "Mental Health and Edu- cation in Adolescence." She fol- lowed her talk with a question and answer period which -every- one found very helpful and in- structive. After two years in the Navy serving aboard a destroyer in the Pacific, George Newton, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. George Newton Sr., was discharged on May 9. After a well-earned vacation which he plans to spend at the home of his parents on Arden, he expects to enroll in one of the colleges of the state and begin his studies this fall.. Many people in the Township may not know what the Livonia Health Guild sponsors a "loan closet" which contains many arti- cles useful in the home for peo- ple who are ill, available for anyone in the township. There is no charge for the use of any of these articles, but those who bor- row them are requested to return the articles to the Guild in good condition. Articles which are available now include a basin, bed pan, male urinal, sheets, draw sheets, pillow cases, bath towels, a bed tray, a mouth thermometer, a hot water bottle and ice bag combined, an ice collar, electric pad, large crutches, 1 set of bed blocks, a baby layette, and a breast pump.
