Any decrease in the amou.t apportioned means that the district must get along with leas or it must be made up in local taxation, thus letting corporations escape a part of the school taxes, Ifyou want to know what partcor- porations cantribute to your district on account of State levy, find what Jeon the $100 assessed valuation amounts to, which is the amount your district pays into the State treasury for school purposes, Then multiply $1.20 hy the coumeration of the district which gives the amount received from the State treasury. The average district: has $30,000 assessed valuation and enumerates 60 children, It pays $21 into the State treasury for school purposes and draws State moneys to the amount of $72. Is there any better proof that the present investment of school funds is wise and that Missouri taxes eorpora- tions and other public privileges? Should the amendment be not adopted, the present State tax rate of 25¢e will continue for about five years until the certificates of indebt- edness have been fully paid. It will then be reduced to 15c. It would take just twenty years more to save the excess paid in by not reducing to 17e at once, This 8c levy, the difierence between the present 25e levy and the propos- ed 17e levy, will be colleeted from the people and invested in U. 8. bonds hearing a low rate of interest for which a premium must be paid, re- ducing the amount to be apportion- ed about 18e per child per annum; a reduction for the average district $10.80. To replace this there must be from two to six cents is- erease in the local levy. Why not save the 8c and continue the 2c and let corporations help to swpport the sehools?
