Details of New Non-High
School District Law Are
Told by Superintendent
By C. R. BOWMAX
Superintendent of Schools
On June 19th at the annual school
election held in all school districts
in the county besides the regular an
nual school business and election of
district school officers, there will bel
held an election for the purpose of
establishing a board of five members!
to administer the High School Tuition i
fund for Jackson county.
People of the county should bear
In mind that this law was passed by
the last legislature and Is now In the
process of being put Into operation.
The board to be elected does not
cause any new tax to be levied, nor
any new expense in the matter of
handling high school tuition.. It Is
merely a better and more businesslike
way of administering a tax which we
already have and hare had for sev
eral years.
Considerable misunderstanding has
developed regarding this law. The fol
lowing points should be kept clearly
In mind: r
' 1. The Non-High School district
board has nothing to do with the so
called County Unit plan of school
government.
2. This board does not levy any
new tax.
3. It will not dictate the school to
which any particular pupil must go.
4. There has been no consolidation
of school districts, but the districts
in Jackson county that do not main
tain high schools have been grouped
into five wne solely and entirely for
the purpose of electing board mem
bers. A zone has no other meaning
than that It Is a group of districts,
which group Is entitled to one mem
ber on the board.
5. The board has no authority in
school district matters and does not
In any way Interfere, with the func
tion of any district school board in
the county,
6. The board Is In no way obliga
ted and the law contains no mandate
whereby transportation for high
school pupils shall be provided. The
law leaves this to the discretion of
the board.
The duties and powers of the board
as set forth In the law axe as follows:
1. To make contracts In writing
with high schools relative to matters
of standardization tuition costs,
number of pupils to be accommodat
ed, and transportation at the discre
tion of the board.
a. To levy the High School Tuition
tax which heretofore has been levied
by the county court upon the advice
of jhe county school superintendent.
3. To draw warrants upon the
fund in the payment of tuition and
other legitimate bills.
4. To make reports, to the state
and county superintendents of
schools.
5. To provide for the election of
its members.
6. To make an annual written re
port to the taxpayers of the county.
7. To pay election and other neces
sary incidental expenses.
It should be clearly understood
that this board, while It may render
some assistance in the transportation
If high school pupils, is under no ob
ligation or mandate to do so. It is,
however, under a legal mandate to
pay the high school tuitions of pupils
attending nigh school who do not live
in regular high school districts,
The state of Oregon has for a num
ber of years through the high school
tuition law undertaken to see that
every boy and girl qualified to attend
high school in this state shall have
the right to do so and to select his
high school, and to have this privi
lege without the payment of any tui
tion if he lives In any district that
does not maintain a high school. The
administration of the law to date has
been Jn the hands of the county su
perintendent and the county court,
the county treasurer holding the
fund subject to the warrant of the
county superintendent. The new
board simply takes over these duties
and services as a regularly constitu
ted body that can study the prob
lems of the county, listen to petitions
ana requests from boards, and have
authority to take definite action,
Board members serve for periods of
five years. The first election Is coun
ty wide so far as non-high school ter
ritory la concerned. That is, all vot
ers in non-high school territory vote
on all five candidates. The district
boundary board which is the county
court and the county superintendent
will canvass the vote and declare the
winning candidates. The candidate
having the highest number of votes
will have the five year term, the next
highest the four year term, and so on.
The zone, or group of districts, whose
candidate receives the lowest number
of votes will have the one year term,
and that zone will elect a successor
to Its member next year. Members
serve without compensation and the
county superintendent la ex-offlclo
secretary of the board without vote
on the board, and without additional
compensation. This sould relieve the
mistaken idea that this board Is crea
ting extra expense for the taxpayers.
Under the law, nominal travelling ex-
penses for attendance at board meet
ings may be allowed which expense
should be very nominal.
The date for candidates filing pe
titions for nomination ended at mid

GOLD BEACH, Ore. ( UP ) Twenty
years of fruitless labor failed to shake
John Smith's faith In his gold mine.
Working alone, he drilled a tunnel
90 feet Into the side of a mountain,
following an elusive vein, that at
times bore traces of metal, while his
friends wandered from claim to cls,lm
seeking pay dirt. The other day. John
R. Smith came to town with two
pounds five ounces of fine gold he re
covered at the end of his tunnel In
less than three days.

Jacob S. Coxey, of Coxey's Army fame,
doesnt stay 6ut of the news very

Just now, a tiny wren la bringing
visitors to the Coxey home. The

Cock Robin.
Each day It demonstrates Its ability
aa a shadow boxer by attacking Its
reflection In a window of Coxey's
home.
Coxey now la Mayor of Masslllon.
