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

Fraud Completed.

E. P. Salisbury against John Bruce
Goddard and A. W. Ehrlich for dam
ages in the sum of (2160. which has
been up for hearing in Circuit Judge
Cantenbeia's court for the past three
days, was turned over to the Jury late
yesterday.
The suit Is the outgrowth of a trade
made by the parties rnvolved, Mr. and
Mrs. Salisbury giving their house and
lot In Salem for the furniture and
lease of a rooming-house at 366 Hi
Washington street. The plaintiffs

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.
