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.

There is no allegation that only part of the common school system is invalid, and we find no such circumstance. This decision applies to the entire sweep of the sys- tem-all its parts and parcels. This decision applies to the statutes creat- ing, implementing, and financing the system and to all regulations, etc., pertaining thereto. This decision covers the creation of local school dis- tricts, school boards, and the Kentucky Department of Education to the Minimum Foundation Program and Power Equalization Program. It covers school construction and maintenance, teacher certification-the whole gamut of the common school system in Kentucky.

Party and Primary Competition in Kentucky State Legislative Races By MALCOLM E. JEwELL* Kentucky is a border state in the political as well as the geographical sense. It has neither the strongly competitive two- party system found in some northern states nor the one-party system characteristic of the South. Since the Civil War the state has voted for a Republican presidential candidate only four times." It has had only five Republican governors, serving a total of twenty years.2 The Republican party has never had a majority in both branches of the state legislature and only twice in one branch.' In recent years the Republicans have held about one- fourth of the seats in the legislature.
