I Dewey made-this:strikbig point in regard to foreign policy: President Roosevelt, powerful as lie is, can not send American troops to fight on lorelgn soil to preserve the peace of the world. That will have to be done by CONGRESS. , A suspicious, unrrlrndbjb con gress will be highly unllkij' to buck up PERSONAL, commit ments made by President Roose velt, who has flouted eongreess so consistently as to have aroused Its deep resentment and suspicion. There is general expectation that even if President Roosevelt is elected lor a fourth term, the .next congress will be unfriendly to him. IE don't have to guess at what will happen In that event. We have a HISTORICAL ex ample. President Wilson made In ternational commitments without the advice or consent of a con gress that he had treated cava lierly. Congress failed to back him up. The result is history. By Charles V. Stanton THE Public School Support amendment, appearing as the 8th measure on the Nov. 7th ballot, is one of those meas ures appealing to sentiment yet involving extremely tech nical tax matters, 'which, if not properly coordinated with the entire state tax program, could prove exceedingly diffi cult to handle in future years. Had this measure been submitted as a statute, thereby being subject to legislative amendment, we could endorse it without reservation. But, as a constitutional amendment, it would become at least semi-permanent and could only be changed or amended by a vote of the people. This fact de ters us from the measure of approval we would like to give. We are in full and complete sympathy with the purposes of the School Support measure. Under existing conditions, and in view of financial conditions we anticipate will pre vail in the immediate postwar period when, we believe, in tit comes will remain high and nrosneritv will continue, we can I AT 1 0 I see little danger in this measure. But we are pleoVintr our selves, if we pass this bill, to a definite and inflexible contri bution to school maintenace, regardless of our future finan cial condition. However, there are redeeming factors even in the consti tutional amendment aspects, for the measure would, as Former Governor Charles A. Sprague says in the Oreuon Stutesman : establish, as a principle, state sharing in cost of our common schools In substantial amount. Since the principle would be meaningless unless tied to a figure, the amendment Xixes 45 cents per child per day of attendance as the measure of state aid. This figure is arbitrary to be sure; but any figure would be arbitrary and no figure would leave the amendment emntv of mcanine. The legislature would retain full authority to determine j methods of raising and distributing funds, finding newj sources of revenue, etc., the only limitation being an arbi- j trary state contribution of 45 cents per pupil per day. The schools now receive from the state $2 million from the 2-mill elementary school fund tax, $o million from in come tax money diverted to school purposes and a compara tively small amount: fi nm (ilP irnrlll,iMo uebrril fun1 TItifl der the proposed amendment, the contribution, at the rate ol do cents per pupil per day, would be about $13 million. As we are now rawing $7 million for school support, the NEW muney to be raised would amount to from $5 million to $(! million. , From this new money, $3 million would be taken to be added to the $5 million ndv applied to property tax offset, milking a total of $8 million to be used to ease the tax on real property, leaving the schools from $2 million to $3 mil lion Of NEW llloaev for iniDI-OVements. The SS million nrim. erty tax offset would continue until 1950, at which date the legislature would designate the amount to be apportioned after that time to relieve real property taxes. ' the school organization in J9I2 secured passage of a measure earmarking ALL SURPLUS income tax funds for school purposes. The legislature, however, instead of ap propriating ALL surplus income tax money, fixed a limit i of !fr, million. ' In addition the state has been navinir the!

The proclamation says: Whereas the armistice of No vember 11, 1918, marked the ces sation of the battles of the First World war; and Whereas tho peace (las again been broken, and we and our al lies, uniting to reestablish peace under liberty, have deployed our forces by land, sea, and air, and are confident of victory; and Whereas under God we are re solved that the victories of this Second World war shall produce not merely an armistice, but al so institutions capable of estab lishing a peace which shall endure. Now, therefore, I, Franklin D. Roosevelt, president of the Unit ed States of America, do hereby call upon the people of the Unit ed States to observe November 11. 1944, as armistice day by re dedicating themselves to the tasks of waging this Second World war to a victorious conclu sion and establishing an enduring peace; and I direct that the flag ol the United States be displayed on all government buildings on that day. DIALlFLOG By SUSAN We aren't going to crawl out on a limb and say that such and such program will be heard, but, as far as we know now up to the time the paper goes to press you'll hear Here Comes the Band at 8, Michael Shane at 8:30 (our own secret service reports this is a .good show murder with a light touch), and Sherlock Holm es at 10:00. Sherlock goes mod ern in a surprising manner when he collaborates with a "pistol packing mamma" to solve the "case of the Haunted Chateau". A wealthy American widow, re ferred to in Wyoming as "Two Gun Gibson;" a suave French Vi comte.and an exceptionally active ghost comnromise the hitrhlii?hts ol Holmes' mission to the dread ed Chateau Verlon on tho out skirts of Paris. Quite a few politicals on Tues day, but as far a v-? know your favorite morning spots will re main Intact. Likewise, as far. as wo know you'll hear Music You Remember at 0:30 and A Datp With Annaloris at 8:15; but Songs oi uoon i-neer win either pop up In some totally unexpected spot, or else have to be canceled for this one time, only a political casualty. Freedom of Opportunity at 8:30 offers a salute to the late Frank Knox, former secretary of the navy, as a Navy day memo rial. Navy day, of course, was last Friday, but this program is trans scribed from an earlier eastern release which accounts for the fact that sometimes their trib utes seem to be a little late. Well, that's all, except for the Count of Monte Cristo at 10. Just one more week and we'll have you back on regular progralns, because a week from today is THE DAY Pbona 842 VERN M.
