Lovejoy PTA Accepts Resignation
Of President as Hansen Asks Peace

Inc LOVeJOy school F1A iasI
night settled a row between
Its president and the schools
principal only hours after the
school superintendent called on
PTA officials and school prin-
cipals to end their disputes.
The Lovejoy group voted to
accept the resignation Of its
president, Mrs. Margaret p.
Courtney, who quit her post
after accusing principal Edith A.
Matthews of trying to domi-
nate the Parent Teacher As
ISOLATION.
At an earlier press confer
ence, Supt. Carl F. Hansen said.
"Fears and anxieties Of both
parties in this situation are
more imaginary than real"
Mrs. c. Rhodes Cox, president
Of the city-wide PTAs, said,
however. that the disputes exist
and stem perhaps from per
sonality differences"
Another school group en-
broiled in a principal-PTA
dispute, the Raymond School,
meets early in November to
decide whether to keep or fire
its president.
22-tO-35 Vote
Last night, despite a previous
agreement that the PTA presi-
dent would resign and a large
poster warning that, "The
principal is educational leader
of the school and community
20 members voted to retain
Mrs. Courtney; IS voted
against.
Mrs. Courtney said she re-
signed her PTA presidency to
devote more time to her job.
She is an employe of the Dis
trict Recreation Department,
assigned to the Lovejoy play
ground.
Another school official, Miss
Edith A. Lyons, assistant su-
perintendent in charge of ele-
mentary schools, said last night
she would meet with Mrs. Cox
next week to iron out other
misunderstanding between
principals and PTAs.
The Lovejoy PTA gave its
president a vote of thanks
for the service rendered during
her term" and appointed her
to the nominating committee
on the coming elections.
No Raymond Action
Meanwhile, Mrs. Henry
Thomas, president of the Ray
mond School PTA, whose re-
moval was called for recently
by DR.. Hansen, said her Or
ganization still has received
no list of charges against her
from him. DR.. Hansen also has
not replied to an invitation to
address the Raymond PTA.
Mrs. Thomas said she still
has no idea why DR.. Hansen
urged her removal. She re-
ported the association has
postponed tonight's scheduled
meeting until 8 pm, November
2, at Simpson Methodist
Church, Thirteenth and Mon
roe streets NV.
Mrs. Thomas said the post
ponement has nothing to do
with the controversy. 1t was
because the PTA did not have
time to prepare its program,
she said.
In his press conference, DR..
Hansen said that in running
schools, there is a need to be
"a little bit dictatorial" and
leave the final decision up to
school officials.
The teacher, he said, "has a
responsibility for education be-
yond the interests and views of
the individual parent" The
public schools, he added, ARE
a civic function established for
the education of the COM
munity's children"
1.-THE more we keep this cycle
moving presumably the dis
puteS, DR.. Hansen said, 1.-The
less we accomplish toward the
education of our children"

Stute Tax Curb
Voted in Senate
BY the Associated Press

The Senate Finance Com
mitittee yesterday approved
legislation to prevent States
from levying an income tax on
a company which solicits busi-
ness in the State but has no
stock Of goods there.
The bill is an outgrowth of
recent Supreme Court deci-
sions which some companies
have said opened the posi-
bility they might be liable to
an income tax in all States
where their goods were sold
even If they had no warehouses
there.
Senator Byrd, Democrat of
Virginia, the committee chair
man. said he regarded the bill
as stopgap legislation while
Congress studies the problem.
