To you we desire to come with a plea for the schools of higher learning in the State of Oregon, for they are in deed in great danger. In seven years, the number of their students has increased 150 per cent, but their in come has increased less than four per cent. That is, students have increased about 40 times as fast as income. Unless the State pro vides more support in the election of May 21, these schools Must Turn Away Fully 2,000 Students On May 21, a bill for the relief of these schools will be voted upon. All who be lieve in education are re spectfully urged to vote number 310 X yes. The People From the Northlands have never failed to sup port education in the past, and they WILL NOT FAIL NOW! The institutions of high er learning in Oregon, are the University, the Oregon Agricultural College, and the Oregon Normal School. If public education fails, America’s free institutions are in danger of failing. (Paid Advertisement) PORTLAND, OREGON the weather next week.
