IThis d is tr ic t, s er vi ng a n a re a o ne m il e s qu ar e, is:surrounded by the Lower Merion School distrIct serving the r em aind er o f the township. The t ownsh ipschools have an assessment (on same b:lsis of valuation) pe r school attendent o ve r t wo times Narberth'sasseSSment per school attendent.Narberth's present school ta x rate (19 m il ls ) i s

2 6 + ~ ~ higher than th e Lower Merion rate (15 mills).N ar el'th residents want school facilities e qu al t o t ho seof their neighboring communities.F iv e y ea rs a go our school board Issued the followingstatement: "Careful examination has revealed that additional elementary school facilities must be prOVided overand nbove the space which wil l b e y ie ld ed b y the vacationof the high s ch oo l. A ll hands agree o n t hi s point. Todelay matters would Impos e a s er io us Injus ti ce on ourelementary school children."This statement was true five years ago and n o a dd itional facilities have b ee n p ro vi de d. T o enlarge these ,facil i t ies will cost money and t o p ro vi de that money iwe must have increased taxes. INarberth Borough has practically no undeveloped territo ry le ft , no chance to t ake In new terrttory which would 'Iadd assessment. These taxes mus t the re fore be leviedagainst the existing properties. iF ive year s ' experience has proved that it is moreeconomical to pay fuition at the Township Schools thanto attempt t o c ompe te w i th t h ei r h i gh school.We ar e obliged to func t ion as a seoarate school district because w e h av e a separate political area. Weuse the same rail service, t he s am e w at er , g as , telephone and e le ct ri c s er vi ce . We rent township sewerconnections an d p ay t he township f or o ur police protecticn. notwi thstanding the f a et , however . that ou rborough tax bill will be 66 2-3% h ig he r t hi s y ea r t ha nour township neighbor.In the Dast few years m an v sma ll oolitical units

through th-e nation have been dissolved. and school districts consoldidated in th e interests of t h e t a xpaye r sancl ~ e h f ) o l chndren.Mr. Albert W. Atwood In an article, "The Cost of Government," appearing In the March 10 Issue of the SaturdayEvening Post, quotes Mr. Mark Graves. of the N ew YOr kState Tax Commission, as follows:"Too many small governmental units which make necessary too many offices a ~ officel's Is III a l ar ge measureresponsible for high local'taxes. In round figures the taxpayers o f t hi s State pay yearly $600,000.000 t o suppo rt 62counties, 60 cities, 932 towns, 507 Villages and 10,600 schooldistricts, much o f whi ch c ou ld b e saved If the small count ies were made Into larger ones, If sparsely populated poortowns were un it ed and schOol districts consolidated"When It costs more money to run government ~ neverthink of reducing the overhead or cutting the cost o f t heservice by doing that which business concerns would do,but because governments are not In business for profit andc an no t b e t hr own Into bankruptcy courts , we simply goback to the taxpayers for more taxes."What business I s doing, government could d o, If thepeople would g et I nt o that way of seeing It, and forgets om e o f t h e t r ad i ti ons bound a round the sacredness oftown. district and county lines. Why shou ld the people ofthree counties pay two and one-third as much for overheadas practically th e same number of peop le p ay I n anothercounty? If this were competitive business Instead of government, Tioga, Tompkins and Chemung would go brokebecause Chautauqua would get all th e business."We must not expect those whose business It Is to manage po li t ica l organizations to become enthusiast ic aboutthis not io n. P ol i ti ca l organizations llve and thrive onpolitical patronage. While they will agree t ha t I t Is desirable to make three blades of grass grow where one grewbefore, they will resent having o ne j ob stand where threestood before.
