For Change In
School Supervision

In his candidacy for State Super
intendent of Schools w. J.. Hunting
advocates making our State system
of school supervision more effective
by a change in the form of organi-
zation. To bring about the needed
reform requires but one essential
change, from a personal control by
the State Supt. to a representative
control by the people of the super
visional district through an elected
board. The new system would be
just as completely organized but
changed in this one vital point as to
the essential responsibility, and would
be in accord with the principles in
operation in other States.
The one issue therefore is whether
the control shall rest with one man
and therefore be %autocratic, or with
the people, and be representative.
To argue that this would weaken
the system, make it spineless or in
efficient, is to claim that democracy
is a failure and the backing of the
people a hindrance. Political Adver-
tisement.
