Attorney Generals Ruling.

La Junta-When it passed law
dividing Otero county into two coun-
ties, the Legislature accomplished sew
eral things. Among these was the di-
vision of a school district into two
parts. The school house remained in
Otero county. but large part of the
district was placed in the new. The
Crowley county people were told that
they were without school house, as
the residents of Otero claimed that
the building became their exclusive
property when the bill went into eff
feet. The attorney general was APP
pealed to by the schoolless ones and in
an opinion prepared yesterday, Deputy
Attorney General Lee holds that a
school district is a body corporate and
that the division of the county does
not necessarily mean division of the
school district.
