From Boise, Senator notes Senate Bill 1275 of the 40th Idaho Legislature becomes law. The $99.4 million General Fund appropriation will finance about 55 percent of the foundation education program, with 8,300 teachers and students as primary beneficiaries. He calls for fair distribution and a revised funding formula before the next biennium.
A Montpelier Idaho letter to Rep Orval Hansen argues against compulsory charity in the federal school lunch program. The writer objects to mandatory funding, urges phaseout of federal and state participation, and favors private bids and voluntary aid to needy students. The note references costs, taxes, and constitutional concerns.
A prisoner of war camp on the River Kwai saw selfishness give way to selflessness after one man cared for a dying inmate. His act inspired others, ending with a guard miscount and the rescue of a missing shovel through love rather than theft. The piece underscores love's power and cites a Five Star Publishers promotion.
The 40th Idaho Legislature may close soon if bills move as expected. The main obstacle is House Bill 303 and related appropriations totaling 48.8 million from the General Fund for higher education. Negotiations proceed after Senate amendments were rejected, with college presidents warning program cuts if budgets fall short.
