UNIVERSITY ALUMW _ OF HOKE COUNTY TO GIVE SUPPER The Board of County Cwnmiawon- ars met in. special seasiim for the pfBipose of fixing the tax levies and to hear those who are opposed to the ooiinty taSong over the district school bonds and State loans. Those who raised objection to the county talriTig over thie bonds and loans from the Allendale and litUe River Townships’ and wer^ represait- ed by Justice K R. Varswr from Lumberton. Their contention was it is unfair for those who have not voted the l^nds to have to assume thftir proportionate part of the pay ment of them. The commissioners were asked not to give approv^ a^ not allow the debt service item in the six months’ school term. The com- i^ssioners had approved the item in the budget upon petition of the coun ty board of education Those who favored the bonds and loans being taken over by the county claimed that the'school buildings are a necessary item of expense for the operation of the six months’ constitu tional school term and they asked the commissioners to abide by the decision that had been adopted on the first Monday in August, to take over all loans and bonds. The matter had,been under consideration for a niomber of years and some of tiie jiftnnR had already been assumed by the county in the six months school term. Those who favored the proposi tion considered it fair that aH pa^ the county should share equally for the^dehtedness that had bwn lawfully incurred for the erection and equipping of the n^ssa^ school buildings. A gxeat majority ot the county is under local tax and the districts wUl he rdieved ottihe payments of the bonds and loans ^ in that -way a great majority of the, people will be reUeved of more dal tax than wiU be necessary >7 ■ ’ and idapS. Allendale Towndhip, under the county-wide plan of origination ap proved t>y a majority of the school {jmnniitteemen of the county ^ adopted by the oou^ board of edu cation four or fiv^ars ago, was paying for the bmiSag and ment fo® the consolidated district an it was contended thpt it w^d be fair and just that the Allendale , district should assume their part of Mhe paymient of the bonds and loa^- It • was further contended that the Aberdeen Chapel and Glenecito dis tricts were consolidated with ^ha Raeford district under the countywide, plan and that it looked fair l^t they should be paying their proportional part of the indeb^ess, and that districts are practically on an equal basis wihen their indebtedness is com pared to their -valnation and all would benefit on an equal basis.
