Duplin Schools
CONTINUED FROM FRONT
come critical The Branch (B. F.
Grady Col) high school is oper
ating with seven teachers in a
neero tenant house. Exactly ou
children are crowded into space
built to accomodate an average
family. All neero auditoriums ex
cept' Magnolia and Wallace have
been divided into class rooms. Ail
of our negro schools are over
crowded beyond capacity; using
halls, stages and all available
space for class room purposes. We
do not have a science room nor li
brary room in any of our negro
schools.
Toilet facilities are adequate In
only two of our schools. These
have recently been re-modeled and
this important factor has not been
over looked.
Seating for the children of the
county is as critical as housing.
We do not have enough seats to
furnish a seat for each child. Like
wise, science and instructional
equipment and apparatus is almost
non-existant in all of our schools.
There are two accredited ele
mentary schools in Duplin County;
Warsaw and Rose Hill. These twe
schools, through the efforts of
.their community did this with
very little help from the county.
We hope to have all schools ac
1 credited but it will cost money.
The schools in our towns which
have water and sewage can get
approval from the State Board of
Health, but no others can. At
best the sewage runs through a
septic tank and thence to a ditch
or creek too near the school. This
is a health menace not only to the
children but to the entire com
munity. All tiegro schools have
outdoor privies.
We have the best fleet of bus
ses in the State for the transpor
tation of our 'children, but it is
inadeauate In number of units.
Too many busses have to make
more than one trip, and too much
mileage la required of some busses.

CONSCRVATICN.rARAilNS
By GEORGE PENNKY,
hull Conservation Service
The recent rains have shown the
needs for soil conservation prac
tices on thousands of acres of roll
ing fields in Duplin County.
Stands of tobacco have been
damaged by the washing rains and
many tons of hard-to-get fertilizer
as well as thousands of tons of
fertile top soil has gone down the
bills to further fill our already
overflowing ditches and streams.
If this erosion is allowed to con-
We urgently need eight additional
busses before school starts next
year in order to improve bus ser
vice to the children of the county.
We are trying to cover the county
with 14 negro, busses. This is im
possible. No child should have to
leave home before daylight, nor
return home after dark.
Our renalr program has not
been able to do the job because of
lack of money and mateiala, Un
til year before last, no outside
painting was done since W. P. A.
days. We have done practically no
inside painting in ten years, we
have not been able to paint the
outside of all of our buildings and
in some instances roofs have gone
bad before our budget could pay
for a new roof . -, ,
The Board of Education has
spent Its budget wisely and eco
nomically. There simply has not
been ' enough money to do the
thinea that needed to be done. We
believe that our presort request

granted in spite of an increase in
tax rate. We are convinced that
the people of Duplin County 'are
willing to pay for more adequate
school plants, furniture, transpor
tation, etc. We know that the com
missioners will levy such a tax if
thev feel that the people of the
County favor such an increase. So
far as possible we want to pay as
we go rather than add debt to the
county. We believe it wise to get
a part of the money now rather
than to have to get it when tobac
co brings .12 per pound rather
than .46 per pound. Our way of
thinking convinces us that this is
good business.
The Rnard ' of Commissioners
and the Board of Education will
hold a joint meeting on Monday,
June 3, at 2:00 P. M, to'give fur
ther consideration to a school bud
get for the 1946-47 fiscal year, and
will at that uoiM discuss the tax
rate for next year. If you wish to
advocate an increase in rata, or
to register a protest to the in
crease you are invited to attend
this meeting. . A
