School Teachers
Vote Ban On Reds
In Profession
BOSTON, July 6. (flV-The Na
tional Education Association
825,000 school teachers today
took a llrm stand that Commu
nist Party members should not
be allowed to teach in the nation's
schools. -
The 3,000 delegates adopted on
a voice vote the flat declaration:
"Members of the Communist
Party of the United States should
not be employed as teachers."
: There were only a few faint
"nos" when President Mabel
Studebaker asked who opposed.
' The convention's action settled
a parliamentary procedure tangle
wnlcn had delayed direct action
on the Communist question.
The (Jommunlst-ban vote came
after a spirited denunciation of
Communism by John K. Norton
of Columbia University's Teach
ers College. ' -Norton
told the convention:
"The country is looking at what
we do in the next half hour."
: "We know we're loyal," Nor
ton said. "But there are a lot of
people who are confused."
" He blasted Communism as "an
evil system" which would "regu
late according to a despotic ide
ology every phrase of a citizen's
life."
Norton said that Communism
"looks upon schools and education
as an essentially choice means of
obtaining its evil ends."
He said this was the real Issue:
"Should there be freedom to
destroy freedom and to use the
school as a means of doing it r
.. Mrs. Rose Russell, legislative
agent of the CIO Teachers Union
ol New York who had a verbal
clash with Norton at a separate
meeting yesterday, said that she
did not oppose iiring disloyal
teachers but she feared the
phrasing of the report.
Mrs. Russell declared that the
action against Communism "may
lead to dismissals on other politi
cal grounds and that is the great
danger.

increase of $3,342,593 over the
figure of a year ago, an indica
tion that the business and indus
trial expansion of Oregon's econ
omy is continuing at the pace set
in the past few years, Schmeer
pointed out.

States National Bank, largest fi
nancial institution in Oregon,

Britain Puts Restriction On
Further Spending Of Fading
Supply Of Precious Dollars
LONDON, July 7. UP) Brit
ain Wednesday ordered a halt
to the spending of her dwindling
dollars except where Importers
can snow sucn spending is a
matter of urgent national neces
sity. Sir Stafford Crlpps said a buy
er's market has reduced exports
to the United States and cut
earnings abroad so that Britain
has had to dig drastically into
her reserves of gold and dollars
to pay her bills. The situation
likely will slash purchases of
food and raw materials abroad.
This country now obtains vast
quantities of 'wheat, cotton, to
bacco and gasoline from the U.
S., and other countries demand
ing payments in dollars or other
"hard" currencies.
Crlpps reported the sterling
area's reserves are down to $1,
624,000,000 after dropping dras
tically in the last six months
but he said Britain has "not the
slightest intention of devaluing
the pound.
Existing contracts for dollar-
area purchases will stay In force,
Crlpps told Commons, but the
Treasury will permit further
spending only "where a clear
case of urgent national . inter
est is established."
Prices Must Be Cut
Cripps. Chancellor of the Ex
chequer and Britain's economic
chief, declared Britain must re
duce the price of her products
to encourage exports. He said
this can be done through effi
ciency of production and "we
have no desire to see wages
cut."
Th "standstill" In dollar buy
ing which Crippi ordered will
continue at least until Septem
ber. By then ERP funds for the
coming year will be distributed,
and a new scheme of payments
among European nations will be
in effect.
"We shall get out a new Im
portant program In the light of
circumstances wmcn then exist
Cripps said.
Joint Action Needed
The Chancellor said he and
John W. Snyder, U. S. Secretary
of the Treasury, will discuss "the
whole matter" this week In con
ferences here. Canada, which like
tne u. b. is a dollar country,
will be represented at the talks,
Then next Wednesday the fi
nance ministers of the British
Dominions will meet with Cripps
to give their views.
lhe sterling area consists of
an British countries except Can
ada and the Anglo-Egyptian Su
dan, and also Burma, Iceland
and Iraq. Previously, the danger-
point of sterling area s reserves
In gold and dollars has been
considered as around $2,000,000,
000. The reserves now have sunk
nearly $400,0z0,000 below that.
Cripps told the Commons:
"The problem of the relation
ship between the sterling and
dollar worlds Is not one to which
the United Kingdom alone can
find a remedy. It is a problem
in which our friends and part
ners of the United States anfi
the commonwealth are especially
involved."
