Assemblyman Hits Welfare " From now through 1970 California will be build.ing one grade school a day, and one high school a week." This is the plan for school construction as outlined by Assemblyman Hale Ashcraft at 11 o'clock in G-3 last Friday. Ashcraft was on campus two and one half hours, speaking first to the Young Republicans then answering individual queries of students. To finance this expansion program Ashcraft has proposed before the California Assembly a one cent rise in the sales tax. This increase would provide 375 million dollars for education, and would permit property tax-. es to be reduced by 30 cents per one hundred dollars evaluation. He foresees that under the present tax structure both the people and industry of California might be forced to leave the state because of rising taxes.

Eighty-seven top high school students from Escondido, Fallbrook, San Dieguito, Vista and Poway participated in the sixth annual Honor's Day held Thursday, April16. Participants take a general test which includes sections in mathematics, science, vocabulary, and comprehension. Following the general testing, students proceed to individual sections, and compete with other students in a particular field.

As an example of business finding a better tax break else- . where, Ashcraft cited the Marchant Calculator Division of SCM Corporation which "abandoned " its plant in Los Angeles moved to South Carolina where it saves 600,000 dollars a year on taxes. He also quoted figures showing that at the present time California is losing more industry than it is gaining. Another education bill Ashcraft is supporting in the Assembly is a bill to provide 20 yea r loans to qualified high school students for the support of their college education.
