One concerns the proposed reduction of school districts throujrh consolidation and reorganization. Every locality distrusts (rivintr up its own controls. We have been particularly proud of the exercise of our own diftermination over our school districts. School districts originally were laid out to meet the re quirements of travel. Travel was on foot. Children wad ed throiifrh mud and snow to get to school. They walked or rode lonjr distances. Nowadays pupils are transported many miles in buses in the same time they once used to walk to school. They have hr& lunches and other conveniences available that weren't there in the old days. In somp parts of Oregon we have a county school dis , triot a district embracing the entire county. It seems to me that we are proposing here in rjouprlas County to head in that direction. I am not sayin.'jjit ifOtot a Rood idea. Rttf. if we.jro to fewer districts, then to a county district, doe not that lead eventually into a st'te district? And is that bad? Who is to say? EARtY RECOVERY HOPED FOR NEUBLRGErl Sen. Richard Neuberfter recently underwent surjrery and is still fretting X-ray treatment, for a reported malv na'nf condition. It is indeed to be" hoped that his illness proves to be of minor nature and that he will recover fully and speedily.

Whi'e I frequently disagree with him and ftis political philosphies. T feel he is a leader of a school of thought that has every riitht to be? heard. I ureatly admire his enerjry and enthusiasm. Everyon", Republican and PemocOit alike, I am sure, is anxious that NeuherRer shall completely retrain his strenKh and his health.
