JUST A WORD
is not to be denied that taxes
e high, and tin-re is much mer
it! holding down expenditures,
n the other hand there are some
ings w hich should not have the
lining knife at this time. We
ii leave no better legacy to chil
n than higher education. To
ly there are hundreds of Ore
tu's service boys in O. A. C. a'nd
. of O. who were in the great
orld war and thus deprived of
tending schools or' these eol
ges. Their tenure of scholar
lip in these institutions is at this
me, so far as the next term is
neerned, threatened because of
ie colleges being practically in
ant of funds to keep the schools
up to standard. Instructors are
demanding and jrctlinir higln
wages everywhere; colleges in
other slates are meeting this de
mand because living is higher,
and instructors must have more
or they will go elsewhere. Un
less the colleges get more money
many service men will have t
leave school next Fall. We owe
them something. They served in
field and camp when others re
mained at home and received
good wages. Labor advanced in,
price because of the shortage
their service enforced; farmers
received better prices beause of
the wastes of a war we did not
invite, and the victory of which
our boys helped to win.

the local pool hail was attracting tarns
numoers or young men. so it bought
j the pool tables, thus closing the pool
hall. But It did not stou there. It
offered entertainment which eff.ictirn.
ly reached these young men who had
previously spent their time at the pool
hall. We can have mimes In the
church too, especially these education
al films which can easily be got from
the Government departments."
Some surveyors fouud that there was
a general lack of Interest in the church
and religious things In the rural dis
tricts which they visited. "Pasters are
becoming discouraged," one said, "and
spend part of their time working on
farms instead of putting all Uu.:r ef
fort into church work."
The results 'of those surveys will
form an Important part of the program
t the conference to be held in this
county early in April.

CORNER SECOND AND WASHINGTON STREETS
HILLSBORO, OREGON
A large portion of the funds to be
raised In the United Simultaneous
Campaign of the Protestant denomina
tions associated with the Interchurel
World Movement will be used for
American Ministerial support and re
lief. It Is greatly needed, according
to leaders of the Interchurch Move
ment, who early in April are to hold
the conference In this county.
As a result of the campaign now
being made by the Interchurch World
Movement the combined Protestant
churches of America will provide many
more hospitals, clinics and homes for
ihe aged and Infirm, An intereHting
feature of these Protestant hostiitals
will be free treatment for ministers,
as recent surveys made by the Inter
church organitation have made the
need for special dispensations very
obvious.
The following startling facts were
divulged as to the average salaries In
the various denominations. Starting
with the highest, the average for Kids-
copal ministers Is $1,242; the average
for Presbyterian (North), $1,177; fo.
the United Presbyterians, 1,U96; foi
the Reformed Church (Dutch), $1,170;
for the Methodist Episcopal (Noith),
$1,176; Congregational, $1,042, and for
the Baptists (Northern), $950.
With government experts announc
ing that $1,600 is the lowest salary
upon which a family can be decently
maintained and suggesting budgets for
none lower, ministers have a discour
aging outlook. Such things as hospi
tal bills are almost impossible to meet,
and yet every normal family has some
illness in its midst every year. Ac
cordingly the Interchurch Movement,
while on its way to obtain higher aver
agee in salaries, will assist by provid
ing free care in Its Institutions.
INTERCHURCH MOVEMENT
PLANS MEDICAL AID FOR CHINA
In no part of China Is there a med
ical force at all adequate to the needs
of the situation. In one province there
is but one doctor to five millions of
people, a;id missionaries living In lone
ly stations must travel many days to
procure medical help in case of need.
The program of the Interchurch
World Movement, baaed on a careful
survey, will inrfd the strengthening
of present institutions and the opening
of a large number of hospitals In new
areas where they are most needed.
