Oklahoma Governor Faces Tax Dilemma Over Better Schools Plan
Governor Bellmon weighs how to handle Oklahoma Education Association petitions to raise teacher pay and hire 1500 more teachers at an estimated 48 million dollars yearly.

The timing, financing, and potential political risk loom large as Bellmon seeks a fair path.
