But the opportunity for better education was snuffed out for the lack of $15.000. We have received a communication from Mr. Leland J. Yost. a responsible citizen. a California farmer. His statement. which is quoted in the committee report. gives us an example of the financial burden that migrant children place on local school districts. Mr. Yost said: In spite of all we have done. I do not feel that we have been successful in educating even a significant portion of the migrant children who attend our schools for a portion of each year. Our efforts must be redoubled. Yet school taxes on farmland have reached a point where they cannot be increased.
