Makes Laws Less Ambiguous
Senate bill No. 167.-The pres
ent laws contain a mass OF ambigu-
GUS and conflicting provisions con
corning the qualifications of voters
at school elections. After the most
thoro study OF this question with the
aid of county superintendents, school
trustees and legal advice, this act is
submitted, which clears up the en-
tire matter and reduces II to abso-
lutte simplicity: the new provisions
are as follows:
G) All persons over the age OF
Fl who have resided in the district
where they offer to vote at least 80
days Immediately preceding the cleo
tion and who are
(a) Freeholders, including both
husband and wife when the freehold
is community property; or,
(b) Parents having children under
Fl years of age.
Senate bill No. 110.-This is prob
ably the most far reaching measure
in the educational field. 1t has an
exceedingly interesting history for
the bill as passed Is radically differ
ent from the original, although aim
ed to solve the same problem.
In it's first form the bill provided
two contrasting courses of study,
one for the rural population, seven
months year for ten years. the 9TH
er for eenters of population nine
months a year for eight years. II
Is also provided In all districts. both
common and independent. that the
board should fix the length of the
term, thus repeating the present min
imum of nine months for large dis
tricts.
The new bill makes no changes In
the law as to the school term. but
calls for I'd a course of fundament-
ais for minimum term schools and
t2) commission TO study the whole
problem of the curriculem and work
of schools.
