Bond Issue and Tax Levy to
Be Voted on June 17.
2 CANDIDATES FOR BOARD
District Faces Huge Deficit and
Portland Educational System
Needs Adequate Relief.
' At the school election to be held
June 17 the board of directors will
submit to the voters of the district a
plea, for $4, 000,000 for the mainte
nance of the schools at the high
standard set. Of this amount $3,000,
000 is at stake in the proposed bond
issue, the additional $1,000,000 con
stituting a tax levy for the support,
maintenance and operation of the
schools. One director also will be
elected, to succeed Chairman Newill.
whose term expires.
When the time for nominations ex
pired yesterday only two candidates
had been placed in the race Mr.
Newill and F. S. Pickering. Director
Newill declined to' seek re-election,
his name being placed on the ballot
through petitions filed by his friends.
Mr. Pickering is a member of the
grocery firm of Wallis & Co.
In their pesentatlon of the needs
of the district, which are said to make
imperative the sanctioning of the
financial plan, the directors cite
various statistical proof. Cramped
quarters in the present school build
ings, together with a constant growth
of attendance, long have comprised
one of the district's most serious
problems, and it is for the remedy of
this condition that the board makes
its appeal.
Inadequate Housing Shown
There are at present 38,379 children'
In attendance at the regular day ses
sion. Of these 6195 are in portables,
3542 are in combustible buildings
more than 30 years old, 480 are in
basements and 519 are- housed in
rented quarters. The total of those
inadequately housed is 10,736, but in
addition to these more than 18,000
children are enrolled in other two or
three-story wooden buildings. Since
1914 the population of Portland has
Increased 13 per cent, and the average
dally school attendance has Increased
28 per cent.
In voicing a plea for mor facilities
the directors declare that at present
the expenses of the district are
greater than its income. Concisely
stated the situation with respect to
this is as follows, according to a bul
letin issued by the board:
"In order to carry on the work of
the schools for 1922, the school board
budgeted its entire borrowing powe
of $100,000; absorbed its entire insur
ance fund of $142,000, and eliminated
special activities for the four school
months of 'the fall term to save
$66,000; totaling $308,000.
Deficit This Year Large.
-"In other words, the schools are
now operating at a cost of $308,000 a
year more than the revenue from
usual sources. Expressed colloquially
they are 'going in the hole' $308,000
this year. This arrangement will tide
over until next January; then what?
The school board has no more bor
rowing power; it has no more insur
ance or other reserve funds to trans
fer; and it iias no more special activi
ties to discontinue. It will have 2500
more children to provide for."
The bonded debt of Portland' dis
trict, it is related, is $368,500, or with
the exception of three cities the least
of any school system in a list of 30
cities. In only one year since 1914,
despite the constant influx of at
tendance, has any fund been provided
for new school buildings. "Though
the income ceased,'.' degf&res the bul
letin, "the school population increased
at the rate of 2500 a year. That num
ber of pupils require 70 additional
teachers and 70 new school rooms."
N Building Programme Behind.
Continuing the argument for . the
bond issue it is shown that, for the
last eight years, the district should
have expended a total of $7,450,000
for new buildings, thus demonstrat
ing that the building programme is
at least that far behind.
Limitation of the taxing powers of
the school board, to 6.5 mills on the
assessed valuation, has produced what
la cnaractenzea as an untortunate
situation," wherein reduction of as
sessed valuation has proportionately
reduced the district income, despite
the fact that during the last year
more than 400 pupils were in attend
ance than during the year preceding.
The actual assessment and taxation
figures for the district, for three
years, are shown as follows:

Houning Facilities Needed.
Additional housing facilities actual
ly needed at present, are: New high
school, 33 rooms; Benson addition, 14
rooms; additions to 11 schools total
ing 64 rooms, and the replacement of
five frame buildings, namely, Chap
man, Linnton, Ockley Green, Sunny
aide and Sellwood. The building plan
aeks for new buildings of the cottage
type to replace portables at Beau
mont, Duniway, Gregory Heights,
Scott and Holladay; a building of the
cottage type on a proposed new site
at Oberlln; additions to George, Glen
haven, Kennedy, Mt. Tabor and the
new Woodstock school; replacement
of the worst of the old frame struc
tures, including Chapman, Linnton,
Ockley Green, Sunnyside and Se
wood, and new sites for Chapman,
Linnton, Oberlin and Sunnyside.
The cost of high school construc
tion is estimated at $1,055,000; of
graded schools at $1,539,000; and of
new equipment for both high and
grade, $406,000; totaling the $3,000,000
of the proposed bond issue.

ADJUSTMENT IS GENERAL.
Further Advices" of Increases for
Workers In Northwest Expected
From Other Districts.
Norman R Coleman, president of
the Loyal Legion of Loggers and
Lumbermen, returned : to Portland
headquarters yesterday from the
Puget sound district, where he has
been acting in an advisory capacity
in connection with, 'wage readjust
ments. Mr. Coleman confirms the re
ports already received of an increase
of 5 cents an hour agreed upon by
the Four L employers and employes,
in conference in ISellingham, Seattle
and Tacoma. Official notice has, in
addition, reached Mr. Coleman of an
Increase of 25 cints a day in the
mills of the Grays Harbor district.
"Further advices of wage advances I
are expected from other- districts,"
said Mr. Coleman. "These adjust
ments are being made in accordance
with a suggestion and implied recom
mendation by the Four L board of
directors at its semi-annual meeting
in Portland three weeks ago. At
that time the question of the Four L
minimum scale came up in connec
tion with the general improvement
ot the lumber, market. The board
thought best to leave the general
minimum unchanged for the present,
as this scale , applies to the whole
territory of the organization equally
and it was held' that- improvement of
the market was not yet- sufficiently
stable and uniform. It was, however,
freely stated in the discussion by em
ployer mei ers of the board that
wage changes, in accordance with
lccal conditions, probably would be
made and that the Four L machinery
enabled each district to adjust its go
ing wages through the district boards
sitting as wage boards."

DISABLED MEN SPEND THEIR. SPARE! MOMENTS IN .LEARNING THE VOCATION OF BASKET-MAKING.
' With the idea of bringing one of the proposed government hospitals for disabled veterans of the war to Port
land, the Chamber of Commerce, through a special committee, is making a determined fight. The committee is
headed by Dr. A. E. Rockey, who has compiled a report, forwarded to " the United States veterans' bureau for
consideration. -
The Veterans' hospital. No. 77, has been developed by the government in the old Hahnemann hospital t East
Second and Multnomah streets. A five-year lease was obtained on this building, and the government has expended
approximately $140,000 to, put it in first-class condition for veterans. The Chamber of Commerce points out that
with very little difficulty .the hospital can be enlarged to accommodate 504 patients. The hospital now can, house
150 patients. ' - ";
The government has determined to establish a number of big hospitals over the country to accommodate the
increasing numbers of ex-service men who from time to time require medical and surgical attention.
"Oregon has done much to warrant the placing of a big hospital here," said Dr. Rockey. "In the war she gave
her sons as volunteers more promptly than did any other state in the nation. Later,- when drives were made for
the liberty loans, tiie Red Cross and other war activities, Oregon was always in .the front. Other states were
receiving the benefits of big army camps and thousands of soldiers were quartered within their borders. Oregon
gave, but received nothing. Now we are asking that the government recognize the faithful and loyal service the
citizens of this state performed and reward Portland ana the state with the establishment of a big hospital here."'
In the argument sent to the veterans' bureau the Chimber of .Commerce has pointed out the advantages of the
Oregon climate for hospitalization of disabled men, and has named the prominent physicians and surgeons of the
city who during the war held commissions and now stand ready to aid the government through their knowledge
and advice on. matters pertaining to the health of the disabled and sick men of the war.

THEATER TAX NOT LIFTED
QNIiY ADMISSIONS OF 10 CENTS
, OR LESS EXEMPT.
Affidavits Must Be Filed In Ad
' vance of Educational, Religious
or Charitable .Affairs.
Misunderstandings exist as to the
eovernment tax on amusements, de
clared Giyde G. Huntley, collector of
internal revenue, yesterday. He said
the tax has not been lifted entirely,
as seems to be the popular impression,
but that it is still in effect save as to
admissions of 10 cents or less.
Exemptions from the tax may be
granted, Mr. Huntley explained, when
the proceeds of the entertainment are
for educational, religious or charita
ble purposes or allied causes where it
is of public benefit forthe proceeds to
be given some community fund Gather
than to individuals. However, the ex
emption cannot be granted except in
cases where affidavits are filed, in
advance and a request made for tax-
exempt tickets. -
Agricultural fairs come properly
under the exemption feature, accord
ing to Mr. Huntley's instructions, and
also a community 'center or co-opera
tive motion picture show where net
earnings do not go to private, indi
viduals... Wherever exemption is ob
atined the tickets " must bear the
words, "Tax free" or "No tax."
The ordinary fraternal order, ac
cording to Mr. Huntley, cannot qual
ify for tax-exempt tickets in enter
tainments except when its principal
objects are religious, charitable or
educational.
Collector Huntley pointed out the
need for all persons in charge of en-
ivtertainments who hope for tax ex
emption on admission charges to ap
ply either to his office here or to dis
trict offices at Eugene, Pendleton, Sa
lem or Medford prior to the entertain
ment and not to wait until afterward,
as is too often the case.

NATURE LOVER IS DEAD
GEORGE M. 1VEISTER KNOWN
FOR OREGON PICTURES.
Official Photographer for Two
Railroads Said to Have Filmed
, . Many Movie Scenes.
Through, the death Wednesday of
George M. Weister, 60, was removed
one of Oregon's foremost photogra
phers and nature lovers. Photo
graphs and colored
slides of Oregon's
beauty, spots he had
made have traveled
to practically every
civilized country.
He served as offi
cial photographer
for two railroad
companies.
His love of the
outdoors led Mr,
Weister to become
a charter member
of the Mazamas.-He
was a member of
the Masama party
which climbed and illumined Mount
Hood on the night of July 4. 1905.
He came to Portland more than 30
years ago and was a member of the
Lang Syne society. He also belonged
to the Masonic order.
At one time Mr. Weister filmed the
important industries of this region
for the "movies." He was an expert
slide colorist and in this capacity
turned out many remarkable views
which have been flashed upon the
picture screens of the country. It
was said of him that perhaps no citi
zen' has done more to perpetuate and
make known to the world at large the
glories of Oregon.
Mr. Weister was born in Pennsyl
vania March 16, 1862. He 1 often re
lated tliat as a boy he determined to
go to Oregon and to become a pho
tographer. He came here as a young
man and made Portland his home
thereafter. He was married nearly
30 years ago, the widow, Alice
Weister, surviving him. The funeral
services were held Friday afternoon
at the Portland crematorium.
Permanent Organization Planned.
Reports of committees) on perma
