New Approach Planned To Get State Aid For Public Schools
Lincoln Nebraska State School Boards Association Executive Committee plans a new approach to obtain state aid for public schools. They favor a uniform state levy on all tangible property, with two resolutions for a $100 per pupil aid and for broadening the tax base. The poll shows support for state aid but not for earmarked sales or income taxes. Also noted: Aeronautics Commission considers selling a damaged plane with insurance covering depreciation, potential $26,000 to $30,000 payout, and possible legal action against the insurer.
