' NEWS EDUGATION IS —t DISCUSSED AT DOUGLAS MEET Former Territorial Com- missioner W. K. Keller Talks at P.-T. A. Former Territorial = Commis- sioner of Education W. K. Keller was the principal speaker at the March meeting of the Douglas | Parent-Teacher Association last night. He discussed Alaska’s acute problem concerning the schools, namely, finances. He said the Territory is “in a peculiar position, in that it has no legal right to assume bonded . indebtedness and when our' money is gone we must close shep.”- He. pointed out thaf the Legislature is today faced with the problem of making an $800,000 cut in expenses in order to bal- ance the budget. “Approximately 56 per cent of the territorial revenue is appro- priated for use in our educational system,” declared Mr. Keller. Two years ago nearly $1,000,000 was set aside for school purposes, while this. time there has been a de- crease of about $127,000.” Saving Established | This saving, Mr. Keller explained, is made by cancelling non-essential expenses. The Legislature is con- sidering several possibilities as a means of cutting: (1) Abandoning small schools with an enrollment with less than 10; (2) decreasing teachers' salaries, and (3) reduc- ing refunds from the Territory to incorporated cities. Mr. Keller questioned the valid- ity of these steps. He called at- tention to the fact that when a teacher’s salary is distributed over twelve months time that is proves to. be low enough. He also ex- plains that cutting the Territorial refund is not entirely satisfactory because the Territorial treasury is the only agency by which the money made can be collected and placed where it is most needed Revenue Limited Mr. Keller explained that Alas- ka's revenue is limited, the rate of taxation being held to 20 mills, whereas, in certain cities in the;‘ HUPMOBILE SERIES 222 THE NEW Hupmobile 8 IN TRUTH A CAR FOR A NEW AGE!
