Another Meeting For Amish
Independence Iowa reports a squabble between the Amish and Buchanan County school officials over uncertified Amish schooling. County Attorney William O Connell says charges will wait for another negotiation set for Wednesday with Professor Sam Fahr of the University of Iowa law school coordinating talks. Last October Dr Robert Michaelsen of the SUI school of religion connected the Amish with Fahr, and Saturday Amish representatives visited Iowa City. A Seventh Day Adventists representative may fund certified teachers for two Amish schools, while County Superintendent J J Jorgensen plans outreach to the 37 Amish children and their parents.
