The Mason Cmmty Commission,
at its budget hearing Monday af-
ternoon, came up with a 1965 Cur-
rent Expense budget balanced at
$388,606.42.
The budget was balanced
through a revision of estimated re-
venue upward and reduction in ex-
penditure requests from various
departments.
The preliminary budget listed
estimated receipts of $377,664.14
and expenditm'e requests of $396,-
198.47.
The increase ill estimated re-
ceipts came through more money
from tax levy with conlpletion of
the assessment rolls by the asses-
sor's office and the addition of
$2,000 in matching money from
the state for the Juvenile Proba-
tion office.
The biggest increase was noted
in the Sheriff's office budget
which is up $9,903 from this year.
The additional money is taken up
in funds for an additional deputy
and increases ill salary for em-
ployees of the department.
BUDGETS FOR other depart-
ments were at about the same
figure as in the preliminary bud-
get, reflecting slight increases in
most over the 1964 budgets.
The budget provides salary in-
crcases of from $10 to $15 a month
for most of the employees in the
court house.
A county road department bud-
get of $684,440 was approved, the
budget provides $54,750 for over-
head and administration, $376,440
for maintenance and $253,250 for
construction.
It was pointed out at. the bud-
get hearing that the county con-
tribution to the Civil Defense bud-
get $10,800 would be $5,000, with
the rest coming in state and fed-
eral matching funds.
It was also pointed out that the
county contributes $4,000 to the
County F,air budget of $14,510,
with the rest coming from state
funds and receipts frdm the fair.
The budget hearing was attend-
ed by various county elected of-
ficials, intm'ested in the budget for'
their departments.
The local Anlerican Field Stow-
ices Chapter Tuesday night took
preliminary steps toward possibly

dental ~.xpenses~' of having Marit
herc and ,as a start on tile prog-
ram for next year.
Honlc Selection Chairman An-
drew Beclik maid that local famili-
lies who" might be interested in
having a foreign student in their
Ilonle during the coming year

now, and, if they had ally qUCSo
tions could contact him.

rallies" will come out later.

Having discussed the voter reg-
istration work of tiffs past sunl-
mer in Mississippi, I would now
like to describe the other two as-
)ects of tile project: the freedom
schools and the community cen-
ters. It was in these two areas that
lr was most involved during the
montl I spent in Holly Springs,
Miss.
Original plans called for the
freedom schools to'accomodate on-
ly high school age youngsters and
adults. With response from all age
groups, and vohmteer "teachers"
available, the prgram was expand-
ded to inchlde all ages. In Holly
Springs, where two houses had
been leased for the project's office
Visitors, visitors, visitors, some
11,100 of then] inspected the new
Washington Corrections Center
here during the open house last
week,
The crowds began looking over
the faciIities right after the dedi-
cation ceremony Sept. 29 and con-
tinued through the rest of the
week during the "open house"
which concluded Smlday.
Sunday was the biggest day,
with 6,037 persons signing the
guest registers according to Supt.
Ernest Timpani.
A STEADY stream of cars pour-
ed into the new institution Sunday
afternoon, overflowing the park-
ing lots at the administration buil-
ding end of the compound and
sending some down to the other
end to park in parking areas near
the power plant and warehouse.
' Timpani said the crowds con-
ducted themselves well and that
despite the large numbers, there
was no breakage and little diffi-
culty.
He said he received a lot of com-
ments on the new facility, all of
then] favorable,
Timpani said the first inmates
who will be transfem'ed here from
Monroe and Walla Walla are being
selected now and will be probably
the end of this month or the first
of next month.
There is still some staff tn~in-
iffg to be done, he said and it will
take some time to get the facili-
ties cleaned up and chccked out
after the ()pen hotlse.

After the freedom school il~ Hol-

~Yor about two weeks some individ-
uals in nearby Benton Cmmty ex-
pressed a desire to have such a,

to hold the classes. Sixty-seven

regular attendance of 90 was
quickly reached. About half of this
number were adn]ts and we were

HOSPITAL PLAN--Shown above is an Architects' sketch of a p,roposcd hospital
for the Shelton-Mason county area. This sketch is based upon the studies done
s,o far by the architectural firm of Maloney, Herrington, Freesz and Luna,

A,I.A,, of Seattle. The Maloney firm was retained in t c

funds for a new hospital would be ;put to the ,~oters at a later date.

about 100 gathered by 8 a.m. each
morning to begin a day of classes.
For prc-school aged children the
program consisted mainly of stoW
telling and games.
Those of elementary scllool age
were given lessons in spelling,
arithmetic and reading. High
school youngsters availed then]-
selves of a program desigmed to
give them all understanding of Ne-
gro history. It was most interest-
ing for them to learn about some
of the Negroes who have become
famous, especially since such sub-
jccts are never discussed in their
schools. Daring the afternoons a
wide wlriety of classes were of-
fered including automobile mech-
anics, French, guitar lessons, art
and creative writing. The group
invoh,ed in the latter cla~s took
on the task of constructing and
presenting a play based on the
death of Negro civil rights leader,
Medgar Evers. They presented this
on several occasions and, notably~
before thc high school mock state
political conventiml, which was at-
tended by high school youngsters

man who was eager to lean~ th(:
