The first alien land measure to
be introduced into the sixteenth
Legislature is fostered by Senator
Thompson of Minidoka. While it
fails 10 mention the name OF any
nation it provides that land cannot
be held by foreigners, who come
from a.country that will not permit
United States citizens to hold land.
The measure also makes this pro-
vision for the inheritance of land
in the United States. Section No.
of the bill reads:
"Any person whether citizen or
alien may take, hold and dispose
of property, real or personal, pro-
viding however that citizen Of
any foreign nation, the laws Of
which do not permit an American
citizen to own land therein, cannot
own or lease lands in the state Of
Idaho"

Boise, Jan. 8.-The present
Idaho legislature may adopt tie
county unit consolidated school
district system if the legislative
committee of the Idaho State
Teachers association and members
of the sixteenth session can reach
an agreement, it was announced
Friday by E. A. Bryan, state COM
missioner of education.
The proposed system, a bill
advocating which was introduced
at the 1919 session by w. Scott
Hall of Oneida county, would make
each county school district,
instead of having many districtsin in
one county as is now the system.
The bill introduced at the fifteenth
session passed the house and lost
in the senate only by a small
margin. Opponents of the bill
fought it because it contained SO
many points and specifications not
applicable to the Idaho system as
already in force.
The measure has gained sup
porters, however, but on the con-
dition that certain changes be
made. They don't want to make
the bill compulsory upon each and
every county in the state but will
suggest instead that those counties
that want it hold an election and
either install or reject the system
on that basis.
Agreement on county unit bill
was practically reached Saturday
between the subcommittee on leg
islation of the State Teachers
association and Chairman Hall of
the legislative committee on edu-
cation.
