FIRST READING or Bills
Senate Bill No. 81, relating to corporations.
Passed on file until Monday
Senate Bill No 10 relating to the formation of
two Boards OF Trustees for Normal Schools in
stead of one, as III present The new Board TO
have control of the Normal school AT Los An
geles.
Cross said that every county in the state has
an interest III the Normal schools, and il is not
a question affecting simply Los Angeles or SAN
Jose. He believed that all Normal Schools
should be under one uniform management, and
whatever qualifications were required of teach
ers in one should be required also of the teach
ers III the other He was not opposed TO having
different Normal Schools, but he was opposed
to having the BoarSis which supplied the teach
ers cut up i'll little bits and distributed all over
the country.
DelNalle, who sthe author of the bill said that
the argument OF Mr.. Cross did not affect the ques
ton i'll the least, because his argument was
based on the portion referring to education.
There is nothing in the bill. said he that will
in the least impair the method of furnishing
teachers. As 10 that both Boards would be equal:
but there are internal Improvements that have
to be made, such Us taking care of the inStitu-
ton, fixing up the grounds, and other matters of
a physical nature, entirely separate from the
educational part. and it is that that this bill is
intended TO affect The method of education
would be the Same-the provisions Of the bill so
require, in fact He had presented the bill to
persons Interested in education and to profess
Ors of Institutions, and they regarded ii rs ju-
dicous and proper subject 20 be legiSated Upon
and they had recommended it totne committee
CrOSs-I desire to read little from the bill, in
answer to tine gentleman from Los Angeles that
the general management Of the school would be
in the hands of the san jose Board, and only
] nh "a
grounds in the hands of the Los Angeles Board
| Section / of the bill says The powers and
duties Of such Board of Trustees are rs follows
To elect Il Secretary ana provide rules Tor their
own government aud the government OF the
| school; to prescribe rules for the reports of
officers and teachers, etc. That does not look
like a scheme merely f0T fixing the grounds.
Nro0man said he was opposed 10 the bill, be
| cause he did not believe Ii was pOSSibetO create
another Board without increasing The expenses
/ the State would have to bear. He did not
| b, leve there was any more sense in having two
! Boards Of Normal school Trustees than in hay
| ing two Boards of Prison Directors. II the SEN
atOr from Los Angeles wanted to have the Trus-
! tees elected from Los Angeles. he had no ObjCC-
ton but he insisted there ought 10 hc but one
! Board 1t is simply creating more patronage
| and more expense.
| Del Ealle-I wish to answer he Senator from
! Alameda that there Is not one single cent OF
! expense to the State OF California i'll the crea-
| tiOn of the new Board. There is not Il single
! cent paid to these Trustees: on the contrary,
of my section who intrused this bill 10 me said
they desired 10 have Il voice III naming the
/ teachers who shall teach their children. 1t is
on account of the distance mainly between san
| Jose and Los Angeles that we require another
Board. We desire to obtain the most competent
professors, and the system of education would
remain lust the same.
Observation-Disclosures the Senator from Los
Angeles has not read the bill, because he says
il does not provide for any additional eXpendi-
ture. Section 10 says that the members of the
Board of Trustees ana the Principals of state
Normal Schools who attend the Joint meeting
of the two Boards, shall be entitled to receive,
from the money appropriated for the support of
these schools, reasonable travelling expenses,
etc. II that does not provide tor additional eN-
pense then | DO not understand the English
language.
Del Valle-suppose the san Jose Board should
90 TO Los Angeles, do you think that would be
mourning any less expense than if the other
Board should come up to san Jose and perform
the same duty?
The bill was then refused first reading, and
Senator Del Vale gave notice OF reconsidera-
ton.
