For two whole hours recently in Paris the telephone operators had a record of no wronjy number connections. 'They were on strike. Wallowa county stages a real fair every year and gets c lot of kick out of it while providing the same thing for a host of its people. They claim it is the best fair in Eastern Oregon and there are few comers to deny the fact. It is the big community event of the year in that valley and is attracting each of the big days this week at least a third of the county's population. Affairs in which such interest is taken and' such high r.lass competition is se cured cannot fail to be both entertaining and beneficial. La Grande and Union county people should pay a neigh borly visit to the Wallowa fair each year.

Other mem bers of the board voting with him yesterday to remove most of Palmer's authority showed that they are con vinced llaney is right in his fight for a new government .shipping policy. And in perfect sympathy with them is a largo, very large group of citizens who believe our shipping interests are of much greater importance than the present Palmer program would indicate. It is a source of regret lhat Mr. Hancy and President Coolidge should have had this difference. T.ut Coolidge and Palmer have apparently taken the stand that the sooner our ships are sold and got rid of and off the high seas the better off the country will be. llaney and a majority of the commissioners with him contend that it means a gradual removal of American ships from foreign trade and a tremendous loss to this country in original cost and in potential wealth. The next question since Palmer has been deprived of his power is what will the administration do about it? Oregon is vitidly interested in shipping and Oregon is watching the putcomc.'

The zoning by streets was dis continued years ago os we have no assurance of the number of pupils for tho different grades; therefore, at times one grade might be overcrowded while the others have too few. so the rule is a limit of thirty-six pupils to one teacher, and the teachers of the same gi title in other schools to be given the overflow, using the children who Mvo nearest the school selected, regardless of any other conditions.

There is much discussing of air service problems in Washington these days and about an equal measure of cussing, it seems. As a matter of fact, there is a prre:;t deal of charges and counter charges being hurled back ami forth that is failing to accomplish very much. Many peo ple over the country are in sympathy with Colonel .Mitchell in his crusade because he has nerve enough to get up on his hind legs and toll the world what he thinks ii'wronjc. But that isn't the vital factor in the present inquiry. What the country wants from this board appointed by President Coolidge is a thorough investigation of air service condi tions and, more important than that, of air service neeh Such information has been sought More without much effect. Now we want action. It is admitted that the at tention given developments of air activities hasn't been exactly what it should have ben.
