wares school code met in the Senate
Chamber today with thirteen persons
present. No members Of the Leg.sl8-
ture, hold-overs or new members
were present.
Chairman Robert G. Houston in call
ling the meeting TO order admitted his
/ disappointment at the small atten-
, dance and expressed belief that the
committee was too large in itself to
prepare a draft of a school law, be-
lieying that a smaller committee
should be appointed for such pur-
pose He expressed the view that
something must be done to safeguard
the welfare OF the child, hence some
change may be necessary in the pres
ent school laws.
After Mr. Houston's remarks the

were made as TO how to so about
apparent needed changes in the law,
among wh5ch were the dividing up of
the committee TO consider several
phases. including taxation and trans

to whether all of the machinery as
provided for in the code, Including the
State Board OF Education, truant Off
GERS, attendance officers. supervisors
and county superintendents was nee
essary. the opinion being that many
OF these things wire too burdensome.
Dr. h. w Cooper explained the taxa
ton question and other phases Of the
school Law
Frequent expressions were made at
meeting that something must be done
IN the way Of changing the present
school code.
David S. Clark, of Kenton, expressed
the idea that unless something was
done eventually the entire code might
be wiped out.
Afr considerable discussion as to
the best method Of getting down to
something definite on the suggestion
OF George l.. Townsend, ii was decided
that the chairman appoint a committee
