BALL0U SEEKS
BUSINESS MAN
Superintendent Agrees with
Thurston Plan with
Exception.
DETAILS REQUIRE TIME
Officer with Sufficient Rank
Is Crying Need, Says
New Head.
DETAILS REQUIRE TIME

Thoroughly effective administra-
ton Of the District school system
can best be, promoted by the es-
tabIishmcnt Of an office OF business
management, under the supervision
OF an official with the rank of as
sistant, DR.. Frank ". Ballou, super
rendent of schools, said yesterday.
Il agree heartily with all that the
former superintendent. Ernest L.
Thurston, has said on this qucs-
tion." DR.. Ballou said. There is no
question about the Importance of
such a move"
ofice should be directly responsible
to the superintendent, however.
II is essential, he said. that an
officer of sufficient rank, who would
be an assistant superintendent,
should be installed to handle all
business affairs of the schools, so
as to relieve the superintendent of a
great deal of detail work and to
allow him to concentrate his entire
attention upon the work of educat-
ing the school children.
Under the present arrangement,
Dr- Ballou said, everything done in
a financial way requires an investi-
cation by the superintendent and
finally his signature, detracting
much from his time that should be
given to educational features alone.
In the annual preparation of the
budget for presentation to Congress
a great amount of detail work must
be done by the superintendent which
might well be relegated to someone
else with responsibility still resting
in the superintendent. he said.
Although this matter is important
and, with administrative and super
visOry branches Of the school sys-
TEN. constitutes one of the urgent
needs OF the school system, they
are all of secondary Importance
when compared with the necessity
for providing the most important OF
all needs-sUff1Cient class rooms for
the children. DR.. BaIlou declared.
