Another Hearing Slated
For Board of Education Bill
From a Staff Correspondent. J

Lincoln, Feb. 5.-(Special.) -Sena-
tor Ed Howell, whose school board
bill was under fire at an Omaha Com
mercial club hearing Saturday, wants
both friends and opponents of the
legislation to be present next Satur-
day when the bill will come up for
another hearing before the Omaha
senators at that city.
81 believe the selection of school
board members by wards and their
subsequent election then by voters
of the entire city is right in every
respect. When states are put up by
any particular faction they usually
make their selections from various
parts of the city. Why should we not
do the same way, by picking them
originally in this manner?
THE provision to bring the present
board to the end of its term in 1918
should be amended. That was an over
sight in the original draft Of the bill
which should be remedied. There is
demand that this be done. | am
satisfied, and | want to see it done,
am ready to assure the people Of
Omaha"
Mr. Howell does not intend to
withdraw the bill, but does want it to
be given the most extensive discus
sion possible while the senators are
home next Saturday. He believes that
everyone interested in the measure
should be present so that all objec-
tons may be registered at once
upon it.
