Day 2021 Not Without a Fight_Final Draft_14 uneJ 2018.doc Richard E. Day Available at: https://works.bepress.com/richard_day/69/ Not Without a Fight By Richard E. Day, Ed. D. When the pragmatically liberal Governor Bert T. Combs passed his 3% retail sales tax, in 1960, the people on the Cumberland Plateau felt a surge of confidence. After decades of neglect, local school boards in eastern Kentucky were finally able to offer qualified teachers with a college degree a raise of $900 dollars per year, and perhaps, stem the tide of good teachers who were leaving the region for bigger cities, or leaving the state for greener pastures in Ohio or Tennessee. The tax helped military veterans and funded new classrooms. Teacher standards were raised, a network of vocational schools and ten community colleges opened, and work began on the ambitious Kentucky Educational Television network which would greatly expand educational programming in rural areas. As lawyer and former Kentucky state legislator Harry M. Caudill reported, in his definitive Night Comes to the Cumberlands, that the public schools in eastern Kentucky lagged far behind. A 1960 University of Kentucky study found that high school graduates in Harlan County were performing three years and five months behind high school graduates nationally and were in no position to compete for good jobs.

    Form No. 10-300a (Rev. 10-74) UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NATIONAL PARK SERVICE NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES INVENTORY - NOMINATION FORM Historic Resources of Ashland CONTINUATION SHEET ITEM NUMBER 8_____PAGE 3______________________ BATH AVENUE HISTORIC DISTRICT Statement of Significance Since the inception of the Kentucky Iron, Coal and Manufacturing Company's plan for Ashland, western Bath Avenue has been considered to be the city's most prestigious residential neighborhood. The first two houses on the street were built in 1855-56 by Hugh and John Means, prominent Ohio iron industrialists who moved to Ashland in conjunction with the Kentucky Iron, Coal and Manufacturing Company. Through the early twentieth century, property on the street was essentially reserved for local industry owners and managers who were related by family or business connections. Multiple lots continued to be held by families, and only one or two houses occupied each block in 1877, according to the Titus, Simmons Atlas map of Ashland. As a result of the slow development of the street, the neighborhood is now characterized by a diversity of architectural styles that is not seen elsewhere in Ashland. Although the neighborhood previously extended for six blocks along Bath Avenue, large-scale commercial development in the 1200 block has severed the western end of the street, and reduced the length of the coherent neighborhood to four blocks. Therefore the National Register boundary has not been extended beyond 13th Street.
