OREGON IS BACKWARD IN STATESCH09LS Washington Pays $30 a Year For Education of Each Child; Oregon $11.85. "It Is the question of the undermost aa against the uppermost, property values ever human values," said M. H. Marvin, a member of the Washing ton State Industrial Welfare Commis sion, who made a plea at the Portland hotel recently before the Portland Ministerial association for the state two-mill elementary school measure, which is to be voted upon May 21 at the primary. He continued: "The church has made mistakes, brit this is one place where the church must not err. You must get behind this measure so that the child of the poor man can have his or her deserved opportunity in life. Oregon Is face'to face with a crisis in its educational system, that. If not met, will put It back toward the dark ages instead of In the light of the twentieth century which It should hold.

"As a result of this examination the company It found to be sound, aggressive and responsible. Its attitude toward policy holders has been liberal and conscientious. Its officers are men of standing and ability. Its schools equal throughout the state. "Waahlngton today pays per year t.10 for the education of each child within Its boundaries.

Rev. W. T. McElveea of the First Congregational church of Portland, i also made a strong plea for the meaa- 1 ure and declared that It was not only a problem for Oregon to solve, but "a national oae, to handle this situa tion which Oregon now fares, namely the education of the Illiterate, of which there are today In the United Stales. !tt millions," said Dr. Mc Elveen. , "Labor counts on the church In this crisis," said the speaker. "Oms n is behind the times in her educational eystem and every 'tightwad' cltiten In Oregon is to blame for this situation which we now must face at the polls en May 21.

Isn't It about time you and I went to the polls and voted for something new' In this state? I I think so." Mrs. Alexander Thompson and Mrs. S. M.

It is an old story In many communities for a new super lntendent and his assistant to find Jobs for their friends at the expense of local teachers, or to belittle then so that they must resign In self respect. , Does the community know shout It or do anything about It? Do the patrons of each school know the ma teria:! of the teaching force? if they have an up-to-date, accomplished, gift ed teacher, will they encourage her with salary lnoreases and back her against unfair discrimination? How many good teachers have left the community, and why? That will tell the story. How many young peo ple who would make tine teachers are doing something else instead? Keep the home fires burning until all the' cumbering dross and all the unfairness which is driving tome teaching talent away from home is burned up, and then see how rapidly the teacher shortage becomes a thing of the past.
