IT CANNOT
DISCHARGE
Mr.. POWERS
Acknowledgement TELLS THE
SALEM SCHOOL BOARD ITS
POWERS IN THIS LINE-BOARD'S
CONTRACT CANNOT BE BROKEN.

That the three-year contract entered
into with City Superintendent Powers
is perfectly legal in every way, and
that the members Of the school board
cannot ignore it and dismiss him
prior to its expiration, without good
cause, and it spread upon the minutes
of the meeting, is the substance of an
opinion rendered today by Attorney
General Crawford.
The opinion is rendered at the re-
quest of Trustee Lafk,y who, together
with Trustees Millard and Holt, it is
understood, has not only advocated
the dismissal of City Superintendent
Powers, but also Professor Schneider,
of the art department, and Professor
Fargo, Of the science department, be-
cause they are friendly to him. In his
letter to the Encouragement Lafky
says that the contract with Powers
was entered into by preceding board,
that two years of 1t has expired, and
that but two members Of the board ex-
ecuting 1t are now members. He de-
sired to know whether a school board
could bind its successors by way Of a
contract with teacher.
The encouragement says, in his
opinion, that, in the absence Of any
statute on the subject, the general
rule of law is that school board can
enter into a contract with a teacher
which will bind succeeding boards so
long as no fraud was connected with
its execution, and the contract is for
reasonable time.
Further answering the letter he
says that Oregon has no statute for
bidding this, and that, under the
laws, no teacher can be dismissed
without good cause. He also calls
attention to the fact that in the event
OF dismissal o teacher has right to
prosecute an appeal to the county
school superintendent, and from him
to the state superintendent of public
instruction; and that before a con-
tract can be terminated, and it hold
good at law, that good cause must be
shown, and it spread upon the rec
ords of the school.
So far no charges Of incompetency
have been urged against City Superin-
tendent Powers, and It would seem
therefore, that If the school board fol-
lows the opinion of Acknowledgement
Crawford, which one of its members
solicited, that it cannot, as it has ev-
identity contemplated in the past, ter
inmate the contract existing with the
city superintendent.
