HOOD LOOP DESERVES ATTENTION—
This newspaper has frequently called
attention to the fact that the Hood Loop
highway is one of the most used thorough­
fares in Oregon and that the section be­
tween Portland and Government Camp is a
particularly congested stretch of road much
of the time. Not only does this route carry
one of the s tate’s largest traffic loads of
recereation seekers, but it also carries a
tremendous load of business traffic from
central, eastern and southern Oregon.
Opening a couple of years ago of the new
Wapinitia cutoff has vastly increased both
the business and tourist traffic coming over
the pass at Government Camp and down
into the valley via Sandy and Gresham.
Completion of a new strip of highway be­
tween Madras and Prineville and renum­
bering highway 50 and several other roads
as highway 26, a new transcontinental
route, is bound to increase traffic on this
road by new leaps and bounds.
It is time that the Oregon highway com­
mission swings into action to bring this
heavily traveled arterial into up-to-date
condition. It is at present but a 2-lane high­
way with several too narrow bridges and
far too many sharp curves. These curves
frequently bottleneck traffic on week ends
and constantly present an unnecessary haz­
ard to life and limb.
The curves are particularly bad, yet easy
to remedy, in the Cherryville neighborhood.
Preliminary surveys have been made in that
area and they indicate that about 3 miles of
comparatively easy new construction is all
that would be needed to correct the situa­
tion in that area. Yet, it is reported there
are no plans to proceed with this work.
If members of the highway commission
or its engineers resided in this area and
could hear night after night, as do local
residents the wail of ambulance sirens as
they dash up the hill and back with maimed
victims of accidents on the loop highway,
we believe they would take action in a hur­
ry. And the accidents are not confined to
the nights. During heavy traffic periods of
week ends they are almost as numerous in
the daylight hours. Nor are all of them
caused by drunken or reckless drivers.
The time for action is now. This road is
of sufficient importance to all the state that
it merits top priority for a major overhaul­
ing from the proceeds of the bond issues
now in progress for improvement of Ore­
gon highways.

Lawrence A. Kimpton, chancellor of the
University of Chicago, hit right at the mid­
dle of one of the important current contro­
versies concerning education when, in a
talk to the City Club of Portland last Friday,
he declared that the Chicago school is grad­
uating many teachers but that it does not
teach them “how to teach” subjects. In­
stead, Dr. Kimpton declared, we teach them
what to teach.
We would like to have a dollar for every
time in recent months we have heard edu­
cators, including administrators, classroom
teachers, board of education members and
former teachers, say that they wish the “big
shots” of education would return to the
fundamental practice of preparing prospec­
tive teachers for their jobs by giving them
a thorough grounding in the subjects they
plan to teach rather than to waste most of
the prospect’s college years filling their
craniums with a lot of bunk on “teaching
methods.” We’ll venture that 99 out of 100
recent graduates of normal schools will join
in the chorus of the many we have heard
exclaim, “Why we didn’t learn how to teach
until after a year or two on the job—and we
still are learning the source material we
should have received as part of our teacher
training.”
Most teachers, the successful ones at
least, also will stand 100 percent behind the
idea that there is no substitute for discipline
and work in the education of children.
There is startling agreement among suc­
cessful teachers that this so-called “mod­
ern” concept of letting the child find his
own way around and learn what, if and
when he pleases is just so much bunk. Like­
wise, these is also an amazing degree of
agreement that the greatest success in edu­
cating our children can be attained only
when the instructor is fully prepared with
knowledge of the subjects to be taught and
has the ability and wisdom to guide the
child into a real interest in those subjects.
It is no easy assignment and next to

ception left with the same feeling. The Ohio
senator proved to be a man of real warmth,
affable and charming by nature. It was no
effort for him to appear friendly and close
to the people. It was obvious that such is
his nature.
Quite naturally, a new clamor for Taft to
enter the Oregon primary contest and to
make a real campaign in Oregon has re­
sulted from his short visit to the state.
Many of those who have been his staunch
supporters all of the time but have acqui­
esced to other judgment on the primary
election matter now are all out in their de­
sire for him to become an active candidate.
Many others who have been skeptical of
Taft’s ability to win in the fall now are con­
vinced that he does have that ability and
that he can and should demonstrate it by
taking on any and all comers in an Oregon
primary campaign which would be an im­
portant stepping stone both to his party’s
nomination and to victory in November.
