Salted circular sparks school dispute in Wilkinson County
In Dublin Georgia on August 15 J H Duggan of Stephenaville says a salty circular against his brother County School Commissioner Paul Muggan does not reflect Wilkinson County teachers. He notes few signed, not over five. He mentions no major grievances beyond strict exam enforcement. A city delegation will inspect new school buildings in Savannah Valdosta and perhaps other towns. A September 9 bond election will decide funding for a new school building with expectations of passage.
