On the matter of the independence of the three

boards, we know that for years, some years, there has been

9

a great rivalry between these boards, and that is still

10

unresolved; and any attempt to solve it would be defeated

11

by adopting this constitutional provision, but over and

12

above that, it seems to me most unwise to attempt to freeze

13

in the Constitution a managerial system which, whether

14

good or bad, is certainly, certainly should be left open

15

to change as the future may indicate.

16

We are in a period of great change, not only

17

social change, almost amounting to revolution, but

18

great change in the scientific and other discoveries which

19

are altering the face of the earth; and to attempt to cast

20

the system of education in a fixed mold at this particular

21

period in history seems to me to be most unwise.
