June 3, 1921
TO: Mr. A. G. Whittier, Traveling Auditor, Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Allowances to County School Superintendents.
OPINION
{*63} This office has your letter of May 31, asking for an opinion as to the meaning of Chapter 101 of the Laws of 1917, so far as it affects allowances to county school superintendents.
As we understand the law, the county school superintendent has jurisdiction only over the rural schools. His jurisdiction does not extend to the districts within incorporated municipalities.
Under Chapter 101, Laws 1917, the county school superintendent shall receive an allowance only for traveling expenses incurred in visiting rural schools upon the basis of school rooms therein as scheduled in that chapter.
