FENNELL’S JEWELRY STORE COUNTY BOARD EXPLAINS ABOUT SCHOOL ELECTIONS The Newberry County Board of Education announced Wednesday that an election has been order ed in each of the seven new school districts of Newberry j County on August 14 to provide necessary funds for operating the county schools during the coming school year. Chairman J. S. Rit chie, of Whitmire, stated that T. C. Callison, Attorney General had advised the board that its recent order abolishing the 39 old school districts in the county, likewise abolished all existing levies for ordinary school purposes. In or der to provide revenue for the coining school year it will be nec essary for the people of the re spective school districts to vote in favor of a levy for school pur- I oses. The law requires school of ficials to hold an election setting a tax levy for ordinary school purposes before any levy can be effective. At this election all Qualified electors resident in the district who have paid their 1950 taxes are entitled to vote. Elec tors must have registration certi- ticates. Not more than 15 mills can be levied as the result of one elec tion. In Pomaria School District No. 5 the School Board has esti mated that a levy of 8 mills will raise sufficient funds for opera tion of that district’s schools and in School District No. 5 the peo ple will vote on whether to levy 8 mills for school purposes. In all other school districts Boards of Trustees have certified to the County Board that a fifteen-mill levy will be necessary to meet the ordinary expenses of their schools. Hence in School Districts Nos, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7 the peo ple will vote on the question of a fifteen-mill levy. In Newberry and Whitmire, this levy will not produce nearly as much school revenue as the schools have re ceived in th past and may not be sufficient to meet the needs of the schools. In 1950 citizens of Newberry School District No. 1 were paying school taxes based on a 32-mill levy for ordinary purposes. In Whitmire, Prosperity and Bush River the tax levy for ordinary purposes in 1950 was twenty mills. In Silverstreet and Little Mountain the tax was, 16 mills for ordinary purposes. In some of these districts there was an ad ditional levy for repayment of bonds and notes which levy will. of course, he continued automat ically. The order consolidating the county schools into seven dist ricts means that citizens of those districts will be given the oppor tunity of voting for a levy which will be uniform throughout the district. There has been much talk concerning the affect of con solidation and many reports have circulated that the small districts would he forced to pay taxes bas ed on the levy of the old dist rict. This is not the case, Mr. itchie said. Mr. Ritchie further pointed out that it is imperative that the levy be approved in the election of August 14. If it should not be approved in any one school dist rict, the schools of that district will be without funds on which to operate its schools. Many people have thought that the enactment of the recent sales tax law would mean that the schools would be operated from the proceeds of that tax. This is not the case, since the sales tax receipts are not allocated to the school dist ricts for ordinary purposes but are instead to be used for trans portation and school building, and increases in teachers’ salaries. REALTY NOW RECORDED IN SEVEN NEW DISTRICTS Beginning July 1, deed trans fers w'ere recorded in the seven school districts, as created by an order of the County Board of Ed ucation, instead of the old 54 dist ricts.
