VOLUME 60 NUMBER 18
From The Superintendent's Desk . . .
Dear Patrons:
As the spring of thc year
creeps up on us we are reminded
of the upcoming elections. On
May 1 we shall be voting on Gov-
ernor McCall's tax and school fi-
nance program. I shall attempt to
list some of the major arguments
for and against the program. Gen-
erally in support the program
will reduce dependency of schools
on property taxes to meet operat-
ing costs and shift these costs to
an ability to pay principle by pro-
viding revenues out of income
taxes.
The program attempts to equal-
ize educational offerings in all
districts by providing at least
$900.00 per student per year to
each district for a basic program.
Most people will receive a sav-
ings in the total tax dollar paid
over the next several years be-
cause of $200 million "of existing
state general funds.
The ability of local districts to
plan and evaluate educational
programs will be 'strengthened
because they will not have to wor-
ry about sources of funds and
they will be provided greater fis-
cal stability. Local control of pub-
lic schools will not be affected
because the legislation declares it
to be state policy to maintain lo-
cal school board authority. State
aid is provided for kindergartens
for the first time since 1957. Tax
reform is achieved by eliminating
More than a year ago, Governor
Tom McCall called for a totally
new plan for financing public ed-
ucation in Oregon based on abil-
ity to pay rather than on proper-
ty ownership. Growing reluctance
of property taxpayers to continue
to support schools was used to
most money will receive the property taxes on business inven-

Applications for absentee bal-
lots to vote in the May 7,
Dayton School Election are now
ready and may be obtained at the
School District Office in the Ele-
mentary School at 526 Ferry St
in person or by mail not less than
five days before the election.
Persons who qualify are those
who expect to be absent from the
district on the day of election or
are unable, by reason of physical
disability, to attend the election.
Patrons will be voting on the
General Fund Tax Levy of $40,-
963.79 outside the six percent
limitation. Also on the ballot, pa-
trons will be voting for one boar~
position. Harold Lyon, the incum-
bent, is running unopposed for
Position No. 4.

support the concept. The proposal
has been refined by the Govern- Back Tax Plan
or's staff and others during the o.
At their April meeting, the Day-
ton Education Association elec~
ed their officers for next yeax,:
Mr. Tim Duerfeldt, President;
Mr. Arnold Heimbach, Vice
ident; Mrs. Bernice Payne, Secre-
tary; Mrs. Judy Stolier, 2Yeasu~
er.
This year the Association has
attempted to keep its members
informed in the areas of state
and county resources available ts
assist in the educational procem
by having state and county
sonnel address the group.
The Association voted to back
the Governor's Tax Program be-
cause the present method of
school financing is antiquated and
is endangering the education pr~
cess in the state and the new pro-
gram will lead to more efficient
utilization of the school dollar
and greater opportunity for Iocat
patrons to focus on the education,
al needs of the district rather
than the financial needs.
If transportation to the polls is
needed on May 1, teacher volun-
teers will be glad to take you t~
and from the polls. You may

McCall's Tax Plan
To Be Discussed
Govm'nor's McCall's preposed
will be discussed at an open
meeting Saturday, April 28 at
past year and by the current leg-
islature.
The tax program will affect
each taxpayer in a different man-
ner. As far as the effects on the
Dayton Schools, all calculations
now indicate that there will be no
major adverse effect on our pres-
ent program. Each voter would
be required to check his own in-
dividual tax statement for his in-
dividual benefits.
On May 7 is the annual school
election on a budget, board mem-
ber and the County Intermediate
Education District Levy. More in-
formation at a later date for this
election.
May Day festivities are on May
11 this year, High School Com-
mencement is on June 3 and the
last day of school is June 7, 1973.
We ask for your continued sup-
port during this last month of
classes when we have the weath-
er not always in the teacher's fa-
vor for student attention and at-
tendance~

ber of sponsors will receive a
Swiss Watch. An array of other
prizes is being donated by mer-
chants in McMinnville, Newberg,
Sheridan, Carlton and Yamhill.
Free food and soft drinks will
be available at the finish line for
the walkers. ,
Proceeds from the walk will go
for national research to prev~mt
birth defects and for use in Yim-
hill County for patient aid and
for scholarships for deserving lo-
cal youth who plan careers in
health related fields.

Speak At Church
Ed Edwards, who lived in the
Dayton area as a boy and attend-
ed the Baptist Sunday School,
will be speaking at the First Bap-
tist Church of Dayton this Sunday
April 29th.
Rev. Edwards is a. missionary
appointee with the Conservative
Baptist Foreign Missionary Socie-
ty. He is a graduate of OCE at
Monmouth, also of Judson Bap-
tist College and WesternBaptist
Seminary.
You are invited to hear him
speak at both the 11:00 a.m. and
7:30 p.m. services. Following the
morning service there will be a
potluck lunch in the church base-
ment, about 1 p.m. This will give

gram. Credit against state income
tax liability for rent paid. Some
recognition is given for higher
city, county and special district
taxes by allowing a 10% credit
against state income tax liability
for all remaining residential pro-
perty taxes.
Arguments often used in oppo-
sition to the ballot measure in-
clude:
The program removes local con-
trol of education in that local vot-
ers would no longer have a say
in how much money may be spent
on schools and the programs to
be funded. Educational opportun-
ity is not equalized because the
program would provide state aid
based on current expenditure lev-
els. State income taxes are not a
stable source of revenue and are
subject to much greater fluctua-
tion than local property taxes.
The tax savings are overstated in
that $130 million of existing state
resources are included in the pro-
gram and this money is available"
for property tax relief and school
support even if the program is
defeated.
