The first two will attempt to take the superintendent of public instruction "out of politics'' and the third will seek to raise legislative pay. No. 1 provides a new method of choosing the superintendent (by appointment of the state board of education) assuming that No. 2 (removing the superintendent from the list of elective offices) receives a favorable majority. This wottld make the superintendent twice·removed from pubJi<: vote. Under present law, the public elects the local school board members who select the state boar(i of education who would choose the superintendent. However, sponsors of the amend· ments plan supplementary legislation to bring the superintendent closer to the public's choice. Such legislation would make the state board directly elective on a nonpartisan basis. Amendment No. 3 would raise the ceiling on state legislators' pay from its present $300 per year to $500 per year plus $5 per day expenses while the legislature is in session. The amendment itself would not raise the pay but would permit the legislature to vote itself a raise up to the limits. Under the present scale a legislator receives $600 per term, or $10 a day for the regular session. He serves extra sessions without additional pay. - - - - -- - Missionary .
