THE CITY'S FINANCIAL PROBLEMS.
. As a result of the meeting of the city budget committee
Monday night, it is more than ever apparent that if the mun
icipality is to be restored to a satisfactory financial basis, it
will be through the voluntary action of the taxpayers. Work
ing on a prospective revenue basis lower than the grand to
tal that was realized during the present year, the budget
committee, in its outline, was forced to slash existing allow
ances for services than cannot conveniently be spared, and
the city council, under legal limitations, cannot avoid adop
tion of the plan. The only alternative for more revenue per
mitted under the law is that which the city taxpayers may
Vote upon their own initiative. ;
It is a matter of general satisfaction that the committee
managed to increase the allowance for the fire department,
but it is unpleasant to contemplate that just at a time when
. the city is enjoying a substantial growth it was found neces
sary through lack of funds to reduce the personnel of the po
lice force and street department. Nor is this the worst as
fleet of the situation. Four years hence there will mature
$ 35,000 worth of street improvement bonds, and one year la
ter another batch amounting to $10,000, and there isn't a
dollar laid by to liquidate them. They will have run 20 years,
the first batch drawing 5 per cent interest, the second 4J
per cent. It is obvious that the present revenues of the city
from general taxation will not permit of a sinking fund to
toeet these issues when they mature. If such a fund is pro
vided, it must come on special taxation and a tax of that sort
.must be voted voluntarily by the citizens.
The question is, do the taxpayers wish to start a sinking
und through a special levy.or do they prefer to re-issue the
bonds when they fall due and pay interest on $75,000 for an
other period of perhaps 20 years? A $12,000 bond issue on
tho city library falls due in 1934 and a $15,000 issue that
j.aid for the new fire fighting apparatus matures the same
year. In 1932 there will mature a $25,000 issue that dates
back to 1892. It had to be reissued upon the date of original
maturity in 1912 because there was no money to meet it.
puring the administration of Mayor N. Rice a sinking fund
was started to liquidate these bonds and when final settle
ment occurs seven years hence the city will have paid on that
one obligation alone a grand total in principal and interest
Jrf $75,000. ; -i
If it takes 40 years to pay off a debt of $25,000, how
long will it take the city to liquidate $102,000 more? This
is a problem for the taxpayers to consider seriously. The
longer a plan of settlement is delayed, the more the city will
pay eventually. It doesn't seem like good business to reissue
fctreet improvement bonds, because a good deal of the im
provement (pavement) will probably have to be renewed at
the end of twenty years and that, too, will require money.
Probably by the time the bonds for the fire fighting equip
ment fall due the city will need something else along that
line. In the meantime other things will crop up for which
inoncy wHl be needed. It is inevitable that tho city will not
only return to the original number of employes in the police
-ftiid street departments, but will ultimately increase the per
sonnel to meet the city's growing needs. Every cent of reve
nue raised from general taxation promises to be absorbed for
.current needs and bond interest for several years to come.
.Jfpw what's to be done with the principal on the bonds when
they fall duo? It's up to the taxpayers to supply the answer.

Not a Government Job
"What the youth of tha nation
needs Is not more public control
through governmental action, but
more borne control through paVen
tal action." '
That is the statement of Presi
dent Coolldge. It Is his view, and
a very sound view, about the prob
lem of child delinquency.
It Is not the purpose of govern
ment to raise parents' children fur
them. That is the Job of mothers
and fathers. Governments attempt
only to protect the public against
children who go wrong; (hey do
not go far into the problem of
keeping them from going wrong.
When children violate the lav
local government takes up the case.
The violators are arrested and sent
to a Juvenile court. There they are
dealt with as best a government
can deal with them.
But If the borne la correct (hev
are not likely to be arrested. They
are not likely to be . before a Ja ve
nue court lr tne parents have mat
their obligation, government' acta
wnen parents have failed, and gov
ernmental action seldom supplies
what should have been supplied by
parents at borne.
When parents meet fully their
obligation to their children, there
will be no need for appeals to gov
ernment to become the mother and
father of our youth, a Job that no
government can successfully un
dertake. Raising children Is pri
marily the work of parent -to be
performed in the home, not the
work of governmenta to be handled
In the courts. Portland Journal.
English Examinations '
It was reported that this year,
3 per cent of the applicants for
admission to the University ( of
Oregon failed to pass the enti-Bnce
examination in English. The publi
cation of this report called' forth
some criticism of the methods at
the uinverslty and It was Intimated
by high school teachera that their
students had fared better In other
institutions.
Now we are Informed that at the
Oregon Agricultural college this
year tbe same test resulted In 45
per cent or failures.
Last year the plan of givinr a
uniform i.ngllsh examination for
admission to all colleges In Orcn I
was adopted. It was thought tint'
the results .would serve to classify
the efficiency of the teaching meth
ods in use by the various high
schools. . ,.
The test Is a simple one. coverine
only the: elements of punctuation,
grammar, spelling and correct use
of some ordinary words. It makes
no effort to discover the literary
appreciation of tho applicant.
Last year, atudenta from 64 Ore
gon high schools averaged 24 46
errora out of a possible 100. ' ThiB
years returns from all colleges have
not yet been tabulated. At' the
Oregon Agricultural colleste. stn-
dents were classified as failures
who made 40 errors or more, out tf
a possible 160. It was on this
classiflratinn that 45 per cent were
pronounced failures. There students
were assigned either to a "no
credit" class In grammar or to one,
of two classes In.fresliman English,
6n probation.
The material composing this test
Is so simple a id elementary that It
should be passed with ease by any
student of the eighth grade in the
grammar school.
How long will the people of Ore
gon be content to pay the high
school and oollege rates of tuition,
for. courses which should be com
pleted In the grammar achools?

A Home Like Your Body
The construction of a house is in
many, respects very similar to tbe
human body. Consider the founda
tion as the feet, frame work as
bones, windows as eyes, furnace as
the. heart, plumbing aa the arteries,
veins and Intestines, while the
electrical wiring compares to the
nerve Bystem.
- If the essential organs of the hu
man body could be bought, no one
would ever think of buying cheap
ones to save money. They would
buy only the best, regardless of
price.
Many misguided people, when
building, buy ' inferior material,
second grade fixtures and employ
inefficient labor for the sake of a
small temporary saving, ' to later
discover that It was the most ex
pensive. An Improperly built home,
with Inferior materials used n Its
contraction, is like a sick body.
It's sure to cause trouble and end
less expense Inter on.
This Is especially true of heating
and plumbing. The heart as the
beating plant, with arteries, veins
and Intestines as plumbing, fill an
Important function in both the hu-

man body and in the building of
home. They are more than a net
work of hidden plpea. valves and
fittings that provide beat, distri
bute water and carry away sewage.
It Is a service of universal prac
tical benefit; giving comfort and
assuring health. They should be of
the best material and workman
ship. If they are to protect health
and give lasting service with small
upkeep.
Property owners and home build
ers will profit by regarding the
need for good plumbing and buy
only the beat obtainable. There is
also need for care in the selection
of the plumber. He should be select-

the real estate business, so that In
the future he will not have the
Ume to continue his work with the
Associated .Press.
Mr. McLendon will remain In
Roseburg and continue the lines of
business In which he Is now en

John Throne and Harry Pargeter. j
The campaign chairman and '
campaign vice-chairman have not

as they are. they will be expected
to select several men or women to '
serve through the campaign as
team captains. These captains, in I
turn, will select an assistant to bei

As soon as this can be done the
campaign will begin In dead ear

a free public service. They will ask
no credit (though much be due
them) for doing their duty. Before
starting to work each one will
have subscribed as much as can
be afforded.
The community chest represents
a common-sense method. It elimi
nates ten separate and distinct
