House Kills Bill
Aimed At Omaha
Education Board
. I (From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, Neb., April 4. (Special
Telegram.) House Roll No. 30, by
Goodall, to reorganize the Omaha
Board of Education and providing for
a return to election of school board
members by wards and districts, was
virtually defeated this morning in the
house. The matter came up on a mo
tion of Petersen of Lancaster to the
minority conference report for the
majority report By a standing vole
of fifty-three, the Petersen motion
prevailed. Richmond led the fight for
the Petersen amendment and Bulla
also spoke in favor of it.
Goodall asserted that five wards of
Omaha now have no representation
on the school board, while one ward,
the Eighth, has four or five mem
bers. He charged the board with ex
travagance in its expenditures and
condemned it for other things. Mr.
Hopkins spoke along the same line.
Mr. Cronin resented outside inter
ference with Douglas county matters
and said the house should do what a
majority of the Douglas delegation
wanted.
Replying to Goodall and Hopkins,
Mr. Richmond said the bill had been
inspired by a chronic trouble-maker
in school affairs at Omaha, and that
it was intended to get rid of a board
elected by a non-partisan citizens'
movement, Mr. Hopkins countered
by saying that the "citizens' move
ment" was only a bunch of women in
the "poodle dog" section of Omaha,
most of whom have no children at
tending school.
