SUBSCRIBE TO THE CHRONICLE ‘‘The Paper Everybody Reads” Ploxico Tells Lions Club of Need for Milloge Increose for Schools R. L. Plaxico, chairman of the board of trustees of Hunter School District No. 5 (the Clinton schools) spoke to the Lions club Friday eve ning at a meeting at Hotel Mary Musgrove on the need for additional five mills of property tax in the dis trict to pay for an increase in the supplement to teachers salaries paid by the district. The proposed increase in millage is scheduled to be voted on in a spe cial election Tuesday, July 3. Mr. Plaxico explained that prac tically all school districts supplement teachers salaries paid by the state with various amounts. He stated that the supplement paid Clinton teachers was below that of school of like size, and that it was the intention of the trustees to increase the payments to both white and Negro teachers. White teachers, he said, are now paid a supplement of $35 monthly and Ne gro teachers $5.

The total increase in the school budget for the increases, he said, will amount to approximate ly $10,000, which is just about the amount the proposed increase of five mill^will bring in. Mr. Plaxico said there probably will be an increase in the amount the schools will receive from the state under the new school law passed by the general assembly recently—about $3,000 or $4,000—which will be used to pay for smaller increases in other school expenses, such as insurance— they are paying $3100 annually, for insurance now compared to $1200 a year or two ago—increased janitors’ pay, rising cost of school supplies, etc. He said a good deal of repairing and painting was needed on the buildings in the district that the trustees, had not been able to have done^ because of a ladk of funds: The new funds from the state, he said, will allow that to be done.
