More Money Spent For
Recreation Than Education,
WCC Educator Asserts
Dr. Taft Botner, head of the
education department at Western
Carolina College spoke on "Is Edu
cation Important?" at a meeting of
the Waynesville I.ions Club Thurs
day night at Spmdon's.
The speaker pointed out that
there will be 45,000,000 school chil
dren in the U. S. by 1965?an in
crease of 3$ 1/3 per cent over the
present school census. That en
rollment. he said, will require an
average of 20,000 schools with 20
classrooms, taught by 400,000
teachers.
Dr. Botner, a graduate of the
University of Kentucky, said that
Americans spend more money for
amusement and recreation than
they do for education.
"We also spend an average of
$36 per cauita for alcoholic bever
ages and only $26 per capita for
schools," he commented.
Despite the importance of edu
cation, the doctor said, the major
problem of many people in this
country is: "where to park?" or
"how to reduce?"
The educational crisis In North
Carolina will continue to grow
more acute unless the necessary
steps are taken to remedy the situ
ation. Dr. Botner said. He added
that this state once paid higher sal
aries to its teachers than surround
ing states such as Tennessee. South
Carolina, and Georgia, but the op
posite is rapidly becoming true.
He told his audience that exten
sive studies have shown that ade
quate educational facilities in a
state usually mean a higher aver
age income for the residents of
that state.
"An investment in the education
of our children pays dividends. It's
good business." Dr. Botner assert
ed.
During a business session, the
Lions Club adopted a program of
visiting the 44 other Lions organ
izations in Western North Carolina
to promote the candidacy of Law
rence B Leothcrwood of the
Waynesville club, who has been
proposed for the office of governor
of District 31-A of the Lions.
