This appeal based on the social justice of consolidation seemed to have been well received and there was practically no evidence of a feeling on the part of residents of the wealthier city that they should not be taxed to provide support for the education of county children. In school systems as large as the Charlotte and Mecklenburg systems were, the argument that the units should be consolidated to provide a'd ministrative efficiency and support for expanded supplemental services is not as strong as it would be in smaller units, but the leadership of the two systems did feel that the larger unit would be able to provide some central staff services which neither system had been able to provide separately.
