North Carolina Adopts Stricter School Law With State Support
Raleigh May 29. The new state six months term law shifts to strict economies in school administration. It imposes a 15 cent statewide property tax, limits local levies, and places finances under the state board of equalization. About 1,230 teachers may lose jobs, salaries are cut up to 10 percent, and summer-school certificate renewals are no longer required.
