STREATOR DAILY TIMES- PRESS No Divided Responsibility People of a school district are the ones who have authority to manage schools, for they are the taxpayers and parents. Because they cannot all get together to determine school policies and management affairs, they elect a board of education to act for them. The board has no authority or power to share that responsibility with teachers, Parent-Teachers Association or any other group of citizens. There is every reason why teachers should have access to the board's ear at any time, and there is no reason why their recommendations should not be carefully and sincerely considered by board members.

When the citizenry wants the teachers instead of the board of education to manage and operate schools, then the people will transfer that power to them. But until the people decide the board is not the proper agency to represent them, then the board's authority must remain intact and members will be shirking their responsibility if they attempt to divide authority with the teachers or anyone else. It must not be forgotten or overlooked that the people are the ones who pay for the education of their children, who pay salaries and costs of the physical plant and its maintenance. There can be no division of authority by the board until the people so dictate. Students Favor Home Voting Position of the Times-Press that students should vote in their home town is supported by a Gallup public opinion poll which finds that 67 per cent college students now 18 and entitled to vote prefer to vote at their homes.

Considerable agitation was aroused last winter to create backing -to have, students vote in the college community despite the fact they are there only on a temporary basis, pay little or no taxes and otherwise are not interested in community problems. The Gallup pollsters posed the question, "Do you think college students should vote in the community where they attend college or should they vote in the community where they came from?" From all sections of the country twentythree per cent said they preferred to vote at the college town, 67 per cent for voting at their home town and only 10 per cent registering no opinion. This poll should definitely settle the question, for logic is on the side students favor. Were students permitted to vote in the college community, they could in many situations exercise control on local issues. They could vote for expensive public improvements and services which could place heavy taxes upon the citizenry.

Revolution In Bolivia Bolivians have again revolted against the government, with the President ousted; he will be lucky if he isn't shot or hanged. Revolution in Bolivia is a way of life, for it requires little effort to start and the tenure of a President serves months rather than years. Landlocked and poverty stricken, it is difficult for a chief to improve conditions, so he is soon on his way out. Public officials are notoriously dishonest, all, from the President down to the village head, mulct the people at every possible opportunity. Despite the poverty of Bolivia, only a few years ago, the reputed richest man in the world came from LaPaz, where he had made his wealth in tin.

He shared nothing with his people. So Bolivia has a revolution today and in a few months another will be on schedule. That has been the nation's history. Voice Of The People TAVERN HOURS Streator- Have just heard of local taverns wanting Sunday A. M.
