Attack on School Change Sparks Public Debate in Washington
At a Federation of Citizens Associations meeting in the Chamber of Commerce rooms, President Blair and Capt James F Oyster defended the current Washington public school system. They argued against transferring appointing power to the commissioners, urged preserving the board’s authority, and favored voucher and contract controls. Oyster proposed letting voters choose board members, likening the board to corporate directors and homeowners as stockholders. Plan ignores women voters.
