SIZE fji 1 5S ALDERmANHQM E Fame of Oregon Declared Widespread in East. PROGRESS IS RECOGNIZED (Teacher Back From Education As sociation Meeting end Speaking Tour Says State Is Regarded as Leader in Many Ways. Tk yt. Alderman, City Superintendent of Schools, has lust returned from an extended trip throughout the Eastern end Central states. He made the Eastern trip primarily for the purpose of selecting eligible for the position of manual training:! supervisor of the Portland public schools and to attend the convention of the National Education Association held In New York City early in July. Mr. Alderman asserted yesterday that he had assurances from several compe tent sources that Portland will win the 1918 convention of the association in the event that this city wants it. The selection of a meeting: place for the 1917 convention has not yet been made. Summarising the work done by the sessions of the convention, Mr. Alder man said that the present-day educator Is fighting: tradition. "There was evi dence everywhere that the - modern teaoher Is not teaching; a subject or using: a method merely because tradi tion has prescribed it," was his com ment. Orfjon System Explained. At the conclusion of the convention, at which Mr. Alderman was named one f 120 members of the educational coun cil, he went to Washing-ton. While there he made an address before the Bureau of Naturalization. In which he told of the work being: done in Port land by the school system in the Amer icanization of the foreigner. He ad vanced the theory that, in addition to the preparedness policy- that is impera tive to defena the United States, the Ataerlclinisation of Mexico might be attained througrh education. He sugr erested that 3000 teachers be employed for a period of five years in Mexico and said that 110,000,000 would do the work, and perhaps bring- the standard of living- and knowledge in Mexico to that point where the United States would have little or no further diffi culty. He received the applause of school superintendents from all over the United States for the suKerestion. When speaking- before the Bureau of Naturalisation in Washington he ap peared on the same programme with President Wilson. On his return Mr. Alderman stopped In Gary, Ind., and inspected the meth ods being used under the Gary system of education. He -said that at least 150 teachers were there examining- the system at the, time of his visit. Right Schools Interest. Interest in night school work Mr. Alderman found to be general, although he said that with perhaps one excep tion Portland led in that department of sohool work in proportion to its size. Rochester, N. T.. he said, laid claim to the distinction of having the largest number enrolled in night classes in proportion to population. He said he found that educational bureaus gen erally quoted Portland's methods and advances made in night school work. Manual training, Mr. Alderman said, was being Intensified in schools throughout the country, and that prac tical education was becoming Intensi fied. Mr. Alderman hat a list of several men to fill the position of supervisor of manual training and he will have recommendations ready for the consid eration and action of the School Board within a few weeks. Many Eastern people, he said, were Intensely interested In Oregon scenery, and he answered man Inquiries about the Columbia Highway, evidently the most-advertised of Oregon a scenic as sets. Mr. Alderman was taken 111 while In New York with la grippe and, when he got to Washington, the doctor told him he was threatened with pneumonia. However, he was able within a few days to resume his Journey and fill his engagements. REALTY CASE WITH JURY Second Trial Charging Dealers With Fraud Completed. The suit brought by Mr. and Mrs. E. P.

CITY VOTES $28,000 Fund Created to Buy Property That Is Delinquent. ASSESSMENTS TOTAL 47 Owners May Redeem Property by Paying Assessment and Interest. Arrearage on Some Par cels Is Large. The sum of $28,000 was appropriated yesterday from the general fund of the city with which to purchase property to Satisfy delinquent assessments on street improvements, sewer oonstrua tlon and street extensions. The appropriation la merely a book keeping appropriation, as the City Treasurer already holds the warrants for the delinquents. By the terms Of the ordinance passed yesterday by the Council, with an emergency clause at tached. the City Auditor is given the right to bid on the property involved and purchase it at a price equal to and not exceeding the assessment, plus In terest and other charges. Back Interest la SrtOOO. The number of different street and sewer Improvements on which there are delinquent assessments total 47, and the number of pieces of property in volved is several hundred. The Orig inal amount of the delinquent assess ments totaled approximately $22,000, but. with the interest, has risen to ap proximately !8,000. A number of the pieces of property Involved have been delinquent for several years, and the interest has climbed considerably. Property owners who are delinquent may redeem such property by paying the assessment, plus the Interest at 1 per cent "a month for the first three months. If not redeemed within that time, the Interest at 10 per Cent a year will be charged, plus a 10 per cent penalty. Stricter System Promised. According to action taken yesterday petitioners for street and other public improvements hereafter will lind their financial status inquired into before any proposed improvement is made by the city. A petition was made to the city re cently for a certain piece of street im provement on the East Side. The pe tition contained the requisite number of petitioners. Commissioner ieck made an investigation and discovered that a number of the petitioners -were delinquent on other assessments. Ln- der those conditions no request could be granted the petitioners. Commis sioner Dieck says that the same sys tem of investigation will be followed hereafter and the city will suffer less as a result.
