the levying of apartal taxes
for school purposes l%«more difficult
la the country than in’* the towns,
and when special taxes are levied the
rate of property assessment in too
low to reader, adequate returns.
Also, the scattered population makes
It necessary for more schools to ac
commodate the same number of pu
pils than in the towns, thus destroy
ing in s large measure the value of
concentration and consolidation.
Furthermore, the very independ
ence of farm life renders co-operation
harder than in the towns.
Thus, the Legislature recognixisg
the needs, have sought to provide for
them. But have they provided right
ly y The bill as passed reduces the
ordinary state levy from which the
state^id for schools has always been
taken. It is calculated that' the one- .
half to be raised by the one-mill levy ! a*
for the fflste will no more than pay
the usual appropriations for school
purposes. Thus we see that one-half
of the levy is diverted from ita prop
er place and made to pay the usual
appropriations for school aid.
Now, the other one-half raised by
one-mill levy is to be spent in the
counties from ' which it is^ raised.
That is. Colleton will retain one-half
of the amount raised by the one-mill
levy and send the balance to the
Bute Treasury. The most striking
objection to this system comes from
the fact that the bulk of the one-tniii
will come from tbe counties that
have the least need of it. As for
example. Charleston has now real
ly more funds than she needs for
school purposes, while rural schools
in Colleton are closing every day
for the lack of funds. Then. too. is
lb not dangerous to entrust the spend-
t»* of this money to the different
county Boada of Education, where
