TACOMA, Wash.. May 10. Country
schools of the nation should be in
charge of none but the most ex
perienced teachers and young educa
tors, fresh from normal schools should
be confined to the cities, according
to the unanimous expression today of
delegates to the annual convention of
the national congress of mothers and
parent-teacher associations now in
session here.
Miss Mary Frazee of Seattle voiced
the opinion during a round table dis
cussion of rural school problems, de
claring that a country school teacher
must "be one able to take command
of all community affairs, if necessary,
and fill the requirements of a leader
for both the children and adults.
"Unity is needed between country
and city," said Miss Frazee. "One
rannot get along without the other.
We need to view the country life in
a new manner, we must iook at tne
modern country school as a place to
teach real children.
Chang; Declared Needed.
"The schools of today forbid the ac
tion which all normal children re
quire. We must have a change In the
curriculum. I will hail the day when
teachers will not have to feel so much
like truant officers or officers of the
law. Children must develop by their
wn activities and we spend entirely
too much time in squelching them."
The contentions of the speaker
were indorsed unanimously.
The entire morning was taken up
in discussing the charter changes,
providing for dividing the United
States into 14 regional districts, each
with a regional director, the exten
sion of the charter being explained by
Mrs. A. H. Reeve of Philadelphia,
chairman of the committee to pre
pare the changes. A bill providing
for the retention of all the old and
the addition of new features will be
prepared for presentation to the fed
eral congress.
Mrs. C. C. Noble of California, na
tional chairman on membership, re
ported on the enrollment in each of

with 53,047 members and Missouri
fccond with 39,157.
Mrs. William R. Ramsey, state pres
ident of Colorado and national chair

SAX-em, Or., May 10. (Special.)

ments for the purposes of assessment

ture of an initiative measure sub
mitted to the secretary of state here
today for ballot title. This measure
is being sponsored by the Oregon Tax
Knuallzation association and will go
"before the voters at the general elec
tion in November.
The proposed measure provides that

on farming lands and all dwellings at
one-half their cash value, and all
other improvements, buildings and
