We need help now because many of the school districts. while they have a great many people. including children. living in them. do not have enough tax capacity to raise the money needed to provide proper classrooms for the pupils. Our need was recognized by the committee because 3 years ago one of our school districts was given $145.000 to use in completing a large elementary school in the north end of Stockton. Calif. To show you how this continual influx of migrants has been going I need but remind you that following the 1950 census California was given 7 additional Congressmen. We went from 23 to 30 and it now looks as though we will have a similar increase following reapportionment after the 1960 census. Our State is liberal in its spending for school purposes.
