Legislature Slay Bo Asked to In
crease Levy to Take Care of
Anticipated Enrollment.
D
UNO
SALEM, Or., Aug. 26. (Special.)
On the basis of the present tax levy.
as fixed by the legislature at the 1920 j
session, and the anticipated increase
of 10 per cent in the enrollment of
students for the coming-' year, state
officials are of the opinion that it will
be necessary for them to go before
the lawmakers next January and
urge an increase of the tax, aggregat
ing four-tenths of a mill for tfce
operation of the so-called soldiers',
sailors and marines educational aid
act.
This law was originally approved
by the state legislature at the 1919
session and later was referred to the
voters at the special election held on
June 3 of that year. The voters ap
proved the measure and it became a
law on June 23, 1919.
The original measure provided that
any and all honorably discharged
soldiers, sailors and marines who had
been In the service during the war
with CJermany, and who desire to
pursue a course of study in any In
stitution in the state, whether public
or private, would receive financial
aid to an amount not exceeding $25
for any one month and not exceeding
$200 for any one year, and that such
aid should be limited to a term of not
to exceed four years.
Original Law Amended.
To combat any fraud that might
be attempted the original law was
amended at the 1920 special session
of the legislature by inserting in the
act a clause to the effect that the
maximum amount of $25 for any one
month would be allowed any honor
ably discharged, soldier, sailor or
marine, who physically attended 60
or more hours of instruction in any
one month, and to those attending
less than the minimum number of
hours a proportionate part of the 25
for any one month based upon the
actual number of hours attended
would be allowed.
In cases where the proportion was
less than actual expenses, incident to
the pursuit of the course of study it
was provided that the ex-service man
should be allowed such expenses,
which in any case should not amount
to more than $25 in any one month.
In case of a student's inability to
attend school because of illness, not
exceeding two weeks, it was provided
that the monthly allowance should be
the average allowed for the preceding
two months.
The amendment to the original act
became effective on July 1, 1920, with
the exception of that part of the act
providing for a two-tenths of a mill
on all taxable property in the state
which was referred to the voters.
This part of the amendment was ap
proved by the voters and became, a ,
law on June 18, 1920. I
I.rvy Raises 198,087.00.
Following inception of the measure
there was raised by the tax levy of
twe-tenths, the sum of $198,087.09 and
$250,000 appropriated by the legis
lature at the 1920 session. All of this
has been expended, together with
JS1.000 of tha $225,000 deficiency ap
propriation authorized by the emerg
ency board at a meeting held on June
4, 1920. In other words the total dis
bursements under the law to August
25 aggregated $529,087.09.
Prior to August 25 there were
filed with the secretary of state 4495
applications, while approximately
4301- student:, received aid during the
year ended Jun-e 30.
Under the tax levy now effective
there will be raised annually approxi
mately $400,000, based on the present
assessed valuations, but with an anti
cipated increase of in rwr .vxt in v,
enrollment for the next school year

U. S. TEACHERS SUFFER
Instructors Forced to Kxist on
Scant food Supplies.
SEATTLE, Wash.. Aui. 26. rsn.
cial.) Seattle teachers in government
scnoois in tne Bering strait and Kot
zebu districts have experienced a hard
and stormy summer, attended by con
siderable suffering, as the result of
depleted food supplies.
This was the information sent
south by Fred R. Tait. world war vet
eran and husband of Marguerite
"Peggy" Tait. daughter of J. D. Cress,
Seattle photographer. The Talts are
teachers in the government Eskimo
school at Wales, the westernmost
point of the continent.
"While waiting for supplies we
were visited by a shipwrecked party
of 14 persons who were stranded on
Bering strait during a terrific storm,"
said Tait in a letter received today
by W. T. Lopp. Alaska chief of the
United States bureau of education.
"The visitors had had no food for two
days. Our supplies were nearly ex
hausted, but we all lived for two
weeks on beans and dried pea soup
It was a little food furnished by the
Eskimos.
"We also suffered from the cold be
cause we had no coal, and the weath
er was too stormy for us to gather
wood."

English Corporation Declares the
Continent Now Is Keen Com
petitor for London Market.
SALEM, Or., Ang. 26. (Special.)
That the foreign demand for Oregon
hops this season will depend to a
great extent on the manner in which
the product is harvested and pre
pared for shipment, was the state
ment made in a letter received at
the offices of Durbin & Cornoyer
here today from Wigan & Richard
son. The Wigan-Richardson corpo
ration maintains offices at London,
England, and in previous years has
handled large consignments of hops
from Marion county.
"The Pacific coast grower must
remember," said the letter, "that they
now have the continent as a com
petitor, and we must say that the
way in which the continent hops
from all countries were harvested
and managed left no fault to be
found. You can quite understand
that the continent is making every
effort to capture the London market
again, which would be at the ex
pense of the Pacific grower.
"As a result, if the Pacific coast
grower wishes to retain his .trade with
Kngland, he must pay proper atention
to picking, which is more essential at
this time than at any other period
of the industry.
The letter also said that crop pros
pects in England were unusually
bright.

good Quality.
The Klaber company has 30 acres

EX-SERVICE MN ADVISED
Holding of War Risk Insurance
T7rged TJpon Students.
OREGONIAN AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE, Corvallis, Aug. 26. (Special.)
The desirability of holding on to
their war risk insurance, and later
converting into some form of govern
ment life insurance is urged upon
former Oregon Agricultural college
ex-service men by President Kerr. In
response to a request from the bu
reau of war risk insurance Dr. Kerr
says:
Officials of the college will be glad to
do everything feasible to interest its
ex-service men in continuing their in
surance. We advised them last year,
personally, and through student body
publications, and will bring the mat
ter to their attention at once through
student publications, and others likely
to come to their attention."
Men who have allowed their war
risk insurance to lapse may re-es
tablish it on application to the bu
reau of war risk insurance, treasury

much damage has been done among
sheep, calves and pigs in the past few
months. Until about five or six years

west of the coast range of mountains,

Victim of Stomach Trouble
for Three Years, Port
land Lad Gains Fifteen
Pounds Taking Tanlac
and Is Now Strong and
Happy.
"No one knows just how grr.teful I
feel toward Tanlac, for It has restored
our little twelve - year - old boy to
health when nothing el.se seemed to
help," was the remarkable statement
made by Mrs. A. LeGrand of 1922
Berkeley street, Portland, Or.
"For the past three years- he suf
fered terribly from stomach trouble.
He had no appetite and we didn't dare
let him eat anything sweet, and he
became so starved and thin that he
was almost just a frame. He had
dreadful cramps in his stomach that
lasted for hours at u '.';ne, aad thu
pain was so severe that it jtist drew
him double. Ho would bloat up with,
gas so bad that it often looked like
he was going to smother, and ho was
so constipated we had to give him
laxatives every day. He was so
nervous the least little thing would
upset tiim.
"We could find nothing that would
help him until we started him on
Tanlac, but this proved to be the very
thing he needed. Why, threo bottles
of this medicine has helped him so
much that he has actually gained
fifteen pounds in weight, and seoms
to be. happy and feeling fine all the
time. His appetite is so good that ha
wants to be eating all the time, and
his stomach is in such splendid order
that he can eat anything and every
thing he wants without it troubling
him a bit. We owe his good health
entirely to Tanlac, and I think so
much of the medicine I just can't
praise it enough."
