Gordon superintend- ent of schools in Vancouver, be- fore the municipal committee of the Legislature Wednesday. He took the stand that the experi- ment had been tried forty years ago and failed. "The present system of keep- ing the school board separate is a success," he declared, "and 8 referendum would disturb the popular mind by indicating that the system had failed." Since the time of Confedera- tion British Columbia's school system has been held up as sn example for the Dominion, as- serted E. D. Bush, member of the executive of the B. C. Trus- tees'ssociation, in warning 8- gainst any interference. George Jay, chairman of the Victona School Trustees said that one reason why trustees enjoyed the confidence of the public was that they gave their services gratu- itously. The Union of B. C. Municipal- ities has proposed a plan, to be endorsed by referendum, where- by one elected municipal body would carry out the function of municipal government in regard to schools as well ss other de- partments.
