because of the existence of two
major plant centers approximately
20 miles apart, one in downtown
New York and the other in the ;
uptown section. The uptown stu- I
dent body has a situation more j
nearly approaching conditions at i
Oregon.
Students Have Say
The budgets for student activi- I
ties at this section are submitted |
to a faculty officer who super- j
vises all financial arrangements!
and provides for the bookkeeping.
Aside from this financial super
vision, the students are given a
measure of freedom in the con
duct of their affairs.
Funds for non-athletic purposes
and derived from student fees are
divided into two parts. One por
tion is set aside by the students
for all-university activities such
as the glee club, the band, the
student daily newspaper and
others. The other portion is de
voted to activities which have a
more limited interest. The ap
portionment of this latter part is
made by the students.
Students in Senate
Budgets for all-university acti
vities are recommended to the
faculty advisers by a student
senate, a body of representatives
from each of the three major di
visions of the university. The
senate also agrees as to what ex
tent each of the contributing divi
sions will support the budgets
agreed upon.
Social rooms are provided for
the use of the 10,000 students at
the downtown center. The uni
versity also provides a staff of
clerks, stenographers and host
esses to facilitate arrangements
for all university affairs held on
university property, such as
dances and card parties. This
service is given without charge
except for a small checkroom fee.
As at Oregon and practically all
other institutions, the university
collects the student assessments
and delivers them to the faculty
officer of each of the three divi
sions. The funds are expended by
the students in accordance with
the budgets submitted to their
faculty representatives. Actual
paying out of the funds is reserved
to the faculty representative.

fice was required than will be
needed under the new plan. Cor
vallis was selected as the location
of the office because 55 per cent
of the work originates there and
a large amount of this must be
done at the college. Telephone and
form expenses will also be reduced
greatly.”
Robert Hall, associated students’
president, and Hugh Rosson, grad
uate manager, said last night that
the finance committee would meet
and consider similar reductions in
salary for the associated students’
payroll.
Dr. Hoyt will be supervisor of
the plan until an appointment is
made for the post of controller, a
new office. In asking that the of
fice of executive secretary be abol
ished, the board members pointed
out that the move was not direct
ed at Dr. E. E. Lindsay, present
secretary, but at the office alone.
The board issued statements re
futing the claim of P. J. Schissler,
Oregon State college coach, re
signed, that he had not been no
tified of salary cuts. Chancellor
William J. Kerr reported that
Coach Schissler had been told of
the cuts at three conferences.

“The Real Bernard Shaw” is the title of a biography of the great
Irish playwright written by Maurice Colbourne, but the portrait above
Is not that of the real Bernard Shaw. It is Maurice Colbourne him

its. Some of the flour was sold
from the store, some made into
oread by a baker who was paid in
scrip, and the bread sold from the
store. Farmer, printer and baker
Lraded the scrip at the store.
The exchange has paid off debt
oy accepting goods of the debtor,
and turning scrip over to the cred
itor.
Inflation is guarded against by
maintenance of a reserve of goods
for all scrip that is issued. In
other words, instead of a gold
standard, the exchange maintains
a goods reserve to redeem its
scrip.
An interesting development has
oeen that the scrip is generally ac
cepted in places of business in the
community without discount.
Although the exchange does the
bulk of its business in scrip, it
makes cash sales to pay bills, post
age, freight and other expenses.
TECHNOCRACY OFFERS
NO PLAN OF REFORM
(Continued from Page One)
;inct plans, mutually incompatible.
In filling in these gaps, it must be
understood that an economist is
merely trying to interpret spokes
men for technocracy, and not to
pose as such a spokesman.
One plan which seems to be in
dicated by some statements of
spokesmen is not fundamentally
different from the present system.
Under this plan, division of labor,
and production for exchange, or
sale, rather than for use, would
continue. This is significant be
cause most of the political, social,
ind economic problems and abuses
of our modern society are tied in
some way to exchange. Price,
money, profits, interest, rent, cred
it, are all related to it. Retention
of exchange as a basis for the sys
tem is therefore significant.
Management of economic activ
ity would still be one of the spe
cialized functions, though it would
be performed by technicians and
engineers, instead of business men
is at present. This is reform by
substitution, a plan used in the
oast by those who desire to change
certain aspects of the present or
der, without a complete construc
tion of it. Thus management of
economic activity, now in the
bands of business men, seeking
orofits, would under state socialism
oeundcr some collective group,
such for example as the state; un
der guild socialism it would be un
der a guild of workers; under
technocracy it would be under a
dictatorship of technicians.
Value is doubtless one of the
most serious problems in the mod
ern economic system. Many pro
posals to reform it have been pro
posed. Karl Marx believed it
should be measured by socially
necessary labor used in produc
tion; classical economists of the
John Stuart Mill type, thought it
measured by the cost of produc
tion; the marginal utility school
believes it measured by the want
satisfying ability of the marginal
unit; technocracy believes it de
pendent upon energy generated in
the productive process. What you
call the unit of value, or how you
determine it, does not change the
fundamental nature of the process.
While change in the form of
money has been proposed under
various reform systems, the func
tion of money, as a medium of ex
change, is retained through all of
them. For example, Marxian so
cialists once proposed some type
of labor certificates; technocracy
abolishes “money”, but ends by
substituting energy certificates;
'the present price-system proposes
to continue the use of “money.”
Examined from the standpoint
of basic economic relations, it ap
pears that in the main the plan
adopted under technocracy would
retain the framework of the pres
ent economic system. There would
be a specialization of tasks, pro
duction for exchange, a system of
price and value determination, and
a monetary unit to facilitate ex
change. It is difficult to see why
technocracy would not be sub
jected to the same abuses which
are criticized in the present sys
tem.
As a matter ot tact there is
great danger of more serious abus
es, if concentration of economic
! control places authority in irre
i sponsible hands. The word tech
nocracy suggests such control in
the hands of technicians. It has
already been pointed out by writ
ers that greater social control |
might, in the present system, elim
inate or reduce many abuses now j
so evident. Already the initiative
for centralized control is being
taken by business men through
various proposals for “planning.” I
In general, after the economist ■
has filled in all the gaps, after the
manner of the geologist, the out
line before him is not that of the
eohippus at all, but the familiar
figure of his old hobby horse,
painted pink instead blue, to hu- :
mor the tastes of a new master.

Act of Heroism
Marks Crash of
Big Death Plane
CTUDENTS who rushed to
^ the Eugene airport after
seeing the crash of the huge
tri-motored United Airlines
transport plane there yesterday
afternoon were amazed to see
two men enter the blazing
plane, which was apt to go to
pieces in a, terrific explosion
any moment, and drag forth
the three luckless victims of
the accident.
The heroes were Herman
Hobi, manager of the Eugene
airport, and George Tracy,
mechanic at the airport.
The plane was already afire
when the two men arrived on
the scene immediately after the
crash. They had to remove the
cabin door in order to drag to
safety CorneliavPederson, stew
ardess; then they crawled back
through the body of the blazing
plane to the cockpit in order to
get Adarhs and Householder.
Adams was apparently killed
almost instantaneously, and
Householder died on the way to
the hospital.
Smith Talk,* to Group

I
j McDonald — “Hell's High
way,” starring Richard Dix.
I Showing for the last time to
j day.
I C O L O N I A L—“Trailing the
I Killer,” featuring “Caesar,”
canine star.
By RALPH MASON
Dix at McDonald
Few actors could play the part
taken by Richard Dix in “Hell's
Highway," which is showing at
the McDonald for the last time to
day. Produced to expose the bar
barous practices now in vogue in
some . of our southern prison
camps, this film lacks nothing in
an emotional way. Laid in a set
ting of chain gangs, blacksnake
wielding guards and “sweat boxes”
where convicts are chained up
right by an iron collar, the film
has every bit of local color neces
sary, while a fast moving plot
with high dramatic content makes
it one well worth seeing.
“Son Daughter,” featuring an
all-star cast, will open at the Mc
Donald Thursday for a three-day
run. This former Belasco stage
success offers a strong vehicle for
characterization for Helen Hayes,
who incidentally won the highest
award offered a movie actress last
year, and Ramon Novarro.
The plot of this Oriental film
has many possibilities for some
good action, as it centers around
a revolution, and you know what
that means — crooked swords,
darts, mysterious fumes and what
not. Warner Oland and Lewis
Stone help make up the support
ing cast.

Canine Star at Colonial
A thrilling drama of the great
out of doors, where dogs are dogs
and other wild animals much
worse, is showing at the Colonial
today and for the remainder of the
week. It is “Trailing the Killer,’'
and no important human role3
arc listed in the cast, “Caesar,”
canine celebrity, fills the leading
role quite capably we understand.
Although chiefly a tale of rug
ged existence, survival of the fit
test and so far, far into the night,
there is an element of comedy,
which if the fellows down at the
Colonial are to be believed, reaches
some new highs, they said it was
something about papa canine tak
ing care of the kids, didn't be
lieve a word of it but it might
be true.

O. S. C. Organizes
New Department
An announcement haa been re
ceived by M. H. Douglass, librar
ian, of the organization of a pho
tographic service department on
the Oregon State college campus
which will do certain types of pho
tographic work for the depart
ments of the Oregon state system
of higher education, as well as for
other state departments.
Of special interest to professors
is the photostat work by which
copies made directly from black
on-white originals will be white
on black. Any number of copies
can be made from one negative.
Other types of work done by this
department include commercial
photographs, copies of printed
matter and drawings, identifica
tion pictures for staff members,
lantern slides, slides in natural
colors on Agfa color plates, en
largements, contact prints, special
prints for theses or reports, and
development of films.
A price list of these services will
be found on the library bulletin
board.
Discontinued Journal
May Be Printed Again
Oregon Exchanges, publication
of which was discontinued some
time ago because of financial dif
ficulties, may publish another
issue.
Eric W. Allen, dean of the school
of journalism, stated that he was
very anxious to have another pub
lication, with information concern
ing the Oregon State press confer
ence proceedings just concluded.
Many papers containing valu
able information and showing ex
tensive research were brought be
fore the conference, and it is be
lieved that to have these printed
would bring them before a larger
audience than was possible at the
conference.
Estimates are being made as to
the feasibility of the project from
a financial standpoint, as the offi
cials are very anxious to carry it
through.
