State House debates appointive school superintendent bill
In Austin a state affairs hearing considered a bill to appoint the state school superintendent by the State Board of Education. Dr. L. A. Woods, in his eighth term, and J. E. McDonald, in his ninth term, were central figures. Rep. Ottis Lock argued political involvement by officials should not bar reelection. The committee postponed action on the agriculture bill and would take up both measures again next Tuesday.
