Text Books and Legislators
\ MID much hectic speculation about power bills, a more sober
note has been sounded, during the opening days of the state
legislature at Salem, in the direction of the proposed free text
book law.
For those who have burnt up a lot of energy, in past years,
working toward the passage of a bill to provide free books in
Oregon grade and high schools, news of preliminary efforts of
Lhe lawmakers will be sweet music.
More than a third of the senators and representatives have
already made known their approval of the bill—and this, with
the session still slightly up in the air from the opening excite
ment— is considered unusual initial support.
What’s more, the bill has had a bright and early start, going
before the house Tuesday of this week.
It now remains to be seen whether so constructive a measure
as this can keep its head above water in the midst of other
bills that seem, at the moment, more exciting. IF THE ORE
GON LEGISLATORS CAN RECOGNIZE THE CONSTRUC
TIVE WORK TO BE DERIVED FROM ITS PASSAGE, AND
CAN PREVENT ITS BEING LOST IN A JUMBLE OF MORE
INSIGNIFICANT MATTERS, THEY WILL SHOW THEM
SELVES TO BE A MORE ENLIGHTENED BODY THAN CON
GRESS HAS DISPLAYED ITSELF TO BE IN THE PRESENT
SESSION.
The demand for free text-books in the state is very wide.
Hundreds of Oregon citizens men who struggle to maintain
their families at salaries of less than $100 a month, are vitally
concerned with the bill. When such families have three or four
children in school, the text-book problem is as important as the
purchase of eight-cylinder cars for the wealthy.
State organizations that represent the laboring man have
been working for free text.-books lor a number of years. The
Oregon State Teachers' association went on record, in its annual
meeting in Portland last month, in favor of the measure, just
as it stands.
OREGON HAS LAGGED BEHIND MANY OTHER STATES
IN THE ADOPTION OF A POLICY THAT EDUCATORS
HAVE SHOWN TO BE THE MOST SATISFACTORY AND
MOST ECONOMICAL METHOD OF PROVIDING GRADE
SCHOOLS AND HIGH SCHOOLS WITH TEXT-BOOKS.
The lawmakers have their chance to make amends. May
they use it for the best.
Foreign Work—Real Service
"I’lriTH announcement that the award for this year's Murray
Warner essay contest will be a trip to Japan and a sum
mer at the Oriental Summer Culture college in Tokyo, attention
is once again directed to the contribution Mrs. Gertrude B. War
ner, of Eugene, donor of Oregon's oriental art museum, has made
for a number of years in the field of international relations.
The contest this year will be of greater importance to the
University in that one of Oregon’s students will have the oppor
tunity to make a distinct contribution in the furtherance of in
telligent relationships between the Pacific coast and Japan.
The Emerald can express the gratitude of the student body
to Mrs. Warner for the opportunities she has presented. But
it is an empty pronouncement if it cannot be shown that Oregon
students do take a critical interest in the work that is being
done to better relationships between this country and countries
of the Orient.
Hollow professions of good will and generalities about “better
understanding” will solve no problems. BUT A SINGLE PIECE
OF GOOD WORK AND STUDY INTO SOME PHASE OF THE
FIELD COULD BE OF REAL SERVICE. It remains to be seen
whether the student who is chosen to go to Japan can make
the trip one of actual value. It remains to bo seen, also, whether
the campus will regard the trip as a mere demonstration of
courtesy or as an important endeavor.
In the results of the summer will lie the real appreciation
of Mrs. Warner’s work.

A CORRECTION
We wish to retract a statement
made a couple of days ago to the
effect that a certain brawny, blue
eyed member of the Journalism
faculty turned in a false fire
alarm. We just discovered that it
wasn’t him at all, but his side-kick,
Harry Tonkon. The faculty mem
ber says that he doesn't mind us
connecting him with the misdeed
if we'll only give his theatre a lit
tle publicity. The theatre happens
to be the Colonial.
We know we shouldn’t steal the
ad department's thunder, but a

Suggest:
The following as this week’s
solution to the ‘ ‘ Friday

Halibut Timlmles
Halved Potatoes
Lettuce and Thousand Island
Dressing
Buttered Carrots
Fruit Cup Coffee
HALIBUT TIMBALF.S
3 qts. boiled or steamed hali
but, finely minced.
3 qts. thick white sauce.
Juice of 2 lemons.
1 teaspoon lemon juice.
6 eggs beaten separately.
G teaspoons Worcestershire
Sauce.
Mix the halibut, white sauce
and all seasonings, adding pep
per and salt to taste. Mix in
the yolk of egg and fold in the
stiffly beaten white. Oil timbale
cups, placing a round of paper
in bottom to insure the easy
unmolding. Fill cups three
quarters full, place in baking
pan and surround with boiling
water. Cook in slow oven 20 to
2f> minutes and allow to stand
few minutes before turning out
j on platter. Half surround with
any desired sauce, such as
parsley sauce, anchovy or to
mato sauce.
This is figured to the approx
imate quantity for 3G people

Tonkon blushingly admitted that
the reason he did the alarm turn

OUR DAILY ADVICE
Dear Wetfoot;
Something’s wrong with me. In
Portland where I used to live there
used to be lots of alley cats who’d
serenade me to sleep every night
from the back yard fence. Up
! here there are no alley cats and
I it’s so quiet I can’t sleep. How am
! I going to keep in trim for swim
; ming?
Yours truly,
Charlie (Red) Foster.
Dear Charlie (Red):
Your complaint is a very com
1 mon one and, we may add, a very
simple one to remedy. We are go
ing to suggest a cure that has
worked in innumerable cases of
this sort. Simply hire the Kappa
trio to come and sing an hour each
night outside of your windows. If
this doesn’t work, why write us
again and we’ll sing ourselves.
Yours truly,
Wetfoot.

Little Alec just came bursting
in frothing at the mouth with joy.
When a,sked the cause of this sud
den outburst he exclaimed that the
winter recital and concert season
was now in swing and at last he
would have some place to go and
sleep when it got too noisy around
the house, or the prof lectured too
loud in class.
* * *
Thanks, Alec, we were just won
dering where to go ourselves now
that Condon libe has grown im
practical, due to the bridge games,
bull fests, etc., for that purpose.

IN PRAISE OF,ANYTHING
A little poem
Light or solemn,
Is nice to finish
Out our column.
Don’t look for meter
Sense or rhyme;
We'd have ’em
Rut we ain’t time.
This is the end,
Sorry to bore ya,
Hoopla, gdod-bye,
See ya in Peoria.

MURDERERS GO FREE

their minds as to what they really
want the public officials to do.
Dr. Moley pointed out the pub
licity seeking methods of prosecu
tors, blaming this on the public.
“As long as we tell public servants
that we want them to do that what
else can be expected?” he asked.

dents and faculty of the law school
at a luncheon at 12:30 yesterday
at the Anchorage.
The problem of crime can be
studied in two ways, scientific re
search and statesmanship, depend
ing upon the type of crime, he told
the group.
“The function of a lawyer is one
of leadership in the community,
and the law school should be not
only a place for vocational train
ing, but has a public obligation as
well,” he said at the luncheon.
