A column explains the impact of higher local valuations on state aid for schools, noting Pocahontas County faces a $111 per pupil cut unless laws change. It cites 1975 revaluation, 12 percent agricultural and 10 percent rural residential increases ordered by state officials, and argues for adjustments to preserve aid per pupil despite higher costs.
