IT WOULD APPEAR
H'fSEST TO KEEP THE
HfGH SCHOOL BOARD INTACT

On Friday, electorate Of the high
school district will decide whether Neil
Horne and J. D. Donahue, present men,
bers Of the high school district board
whose terms expire. will succeed them
selves or whether F. y D. Hatch or Dr.
A. A. Ariaudo will become board mem
bers
Mr. Hatch and Dr. Ariaudo who have
announced themselves as candidates for
the board are fine and respected citizens
of this community as are Mr. Horne and
Mr. Donahue But the election is not a
matter Of competition between personal
tiles. There IS one strict issue involved.
Recently, the high school and Junior
college board united with the FL Centre
elementary school board in plan where
by Superintendent Guy Weakley will
share his time between the elementary
school system and the high school and
Junior College. This is departure from
precedent Never before has one educator
assumed the active executive position in
the operation of the two distinct systems.
It is neither here nor there what ones
personal opinion may be relative the new
step.
The important factor is that the pre-
Vous board made the decision, and there
fore, it would appear advisable that it re-
main intact and be responsible for the
success or the failure of the plan.
The two incumbents whose terms ex-
pire, were members Of the board which
made the decision The public interest
would seem to dictate that they remain
in a position to help make it a success,
or if it proves to have been an unWise
move. share the responsibility.
The success of the plan depends upon
cooperation between Mr.. Weakley and
both boards Dissension could disrupt
the plan and vent itself upon the pupils
in the schools. Cooperation, on the other
hand, might reveal the excellent opportu-
mites possible under such setup, thus
benefitting children and community alike
This does not mean that Mr.. Hatch
or Dr. Ariaudo would create any dissen-
sion We know of no public pronounce
ment from them stating whether they
favor or do not favor the new arrange
ment. 1t does mean that Mr.. Horne and
Mr. Donahue can be expected to exert
themselves more fervently toward the
success Of thesplan.

One cannot help wondering what the
League of Nations can do about it now.
Italy has conquered Ethiopia, with only
slight moral resistance from other world
powers. Anything the League can do now
will be nothing but an empty gesture
unless it can force Italy to relinquish
Ethiopia to Halle Selassie The most
optimistic observers of world affairs can
not see any remote possibility that such
a thing will happen. What else Is there
to do?
The League of Nations has, in every
day Americanism, taken a beating. It has
lost its case from beginning to end. Italy
has taken what i, wants, has made sure Of
it, and has nothing to lose. MussoIini
can be forced by national pride to leave
the League true, but such action did not
seem to harm Japan in world diplomatic
circles. 1t probably would not hurt Mus
solinis feelings very greatly to see Italy
leave the League
All in all, there is only one moral in
this European political squabbling. Amer
lea is well out Of it.
