Nova Scofia Plans I Drastic Reassessment For Education

HALIFAX (CP) - Informed sources said Friday the Nova Scotia legislature probably will be- gin debating in late February a drastic proposal to scrap most of the province's centuries-old educa- tion finance system.

informants said Feb. 23 had been tentatively set as the date for open- ing the spring session of the House. It will be the first for Henry D. Hicks as premier and leader of the 37-scat Chamber's 21 Liberals.

The voluminous report on educ- ation finance by Hallfax county court judge Vincent J. Pottier will probably be the greatest single is- sue before the session. It was for- mally received by the government late last year without comment. EEASSESSMENT URGED

The report I mended a sweeping rea ssment of the prov- ince to bring about a fairer ap- portioning of education cost s,

higher salaries for teachers and an "austerity" drive for enough class- rooms by ditching for the time being frills like gymnaslums and household science labs.

The later - than - usual opening date was attributed to the govern- meht's desire to prepare in ad- vance legislation based on the Pot- tier commission findings. Informed quarters said, however, that none of the proposals would become reality before two years at least.

There we s speculation that Health Minister Harold Connolly would be elevated to the Senate before the House opens. Mr. Con- nolly served as acting premier be- tween the death of Angus L. Mac- donald last April and the choice of Mr. Hicks in September as new Liberal leader.
