E
OF SCHOOL BOOKS OF
PORTLAND
EXPLAINED
-State Law Requires That the
Textbooks Shall Be Adopt
ed Every Six Years.
SMALLEST LIST IN YEARS
nprlBtadnt Alderman Says Xntarast
of Bayers Was Taken Into Con
sideration in Choice.
M'hy nrr nchool children required to
buy nrw txt book this year?
What 1 the bu8lH of exchange of old
for new?
. What becomes of the old booka?
Tfincj and dozeiiH of other questions
are belni ak?d by. parents of the city.
miiny of whom, it Is believed, do not
understand the textbook requirements
of tile ; state of Oregon. It is also
pointed out that some of them do not
stop to! realize that Ideas In teaching
change, and that hooks become old anj
antlquatrO, and freshness is as deslr
able n text books as in anything else.
l-'irst of all. under the Oregon state
law a state hoard of text book commis
sioners intuit adopt hooks for the state
every six years. This law was modi
fled aft he 1913 session of the legisla
ture, however, so that cities over 20,
000 population may select their own
text books independent of the state
board, providing that their selections
shall bo In force for periods of four
years.
X.it Smallest in Tears.
Portland Is the only city in Oregon
With over 20,000 population, and so
I'ortland has this year for tho first
time chosen its own books. The state
l)Onrd chose the text books for the
state at large last year, but Portland,
waiting for the new law to go into ef
fect, did not adopt hor new books un
til 1314. "This means it has been
seven years instead of six since the
texts were changed for th city of
Portland, and means a corresponding
saving for tho parents of the city.
Having the interests of the purchas
ers at heart, the selection this year
was made with a view to economy.
"Wo have the smallest book list In
year: ." said I,. It. Alderman, superin
tendent of schools, yesterday.
The greater proportion of the books
this year are entirely new, but there
are many, however, the use of which
was ordered continued by the board.
Old books, the uae of which has
been tlisconti nurd, are exchangeable as
part payment on new books, however.
The exchange price is fixed by a con
tract between the publishers and the
school district and Air. Alderman says
that parents should see that booksell
ers grant the price as listed.
Frtce Is All rixsd.
The price of new books is also fixed
by contract, which protects the city
of Portland, as It assures that the
text will always be sold at the lowest
market price.
Kvery possible step has been taken
to facilitate the process of getting new
books. When your little boy entered
the A class, of the second grade early
this weekvt'or instance, he was given
a printed slip with the names of the
books require!.
The slip told the parent that the
son must have a copy of Sloan's sec
ond book which would cost 30 cents,
ortf water colors costing 20 cents,
colored wax crayons 6 cents, and a
writing hook for 15 c.nts. Then he
must have Book Two of the. Story
Jlour Reader. New this book would
cost ."10 cents, but if the pupil attend
ed the I'ortland schools last year fn
the preceding grade, he used Wheeler's
Second Header, now discontinued. The
exchange price for Wheeler's is fixed
at 21 cents. And so for the old Wheel
er's and 1 cents the pupil is able to
get a brand new .Story Hour Reader.
This - exchange "system applies to all
the grades and the high school.
Under the state law publishers are
required to maintain one book depos
itory In each county, such depositories
to keep stocks . of their books. J. K.
Gill & Co. are the general book de
pository for Portland.
63 Stores Selected.
Manifestly it would be Inconvenient
and Inexpedient for each of the 25,
000 Portland school children to go to
Gill's for their new books and so the
depository has arranged that 53 stores
located near schools in every part of
the city shall handdle the new books
and accept old books in exchange.
These dealers are instructed that
"second hand books taken in exchange
should be complete books, that they
could be used again if necessary."
This is the rul affecting old books
for exchange, and presupposes a rea
sonable amount of wear and tear and
all the pages intact. A book with a
number of pages missing or torn and
frayed and falling apart is not con
sidered exchangeable.
Many children wonder what be
come of their old books, thd old books
they have studied from and marked in.
Those that can be sold in some other
states are shipped away; those that
are not saleable are burned. Kor i p . i
example, an ariuimeuc discarded by
the state of Oregon might still be
in use by the state of Missouri. Then
all the old arithmetics exchanged by
Oregon pupils would bd sent back to
thj publishers, and they would try to
dispose of them in Missouri.
To Change in Belays.
Sometimes it does not even pay tq
send them back. Last year a carload
was sent from Portland east, the re
ceipts from which were not sufficient
to pay the freight on the car. Where
this is the case this year such books
will be kept in Portland and burned.
J. K. Gill & Co. heated its building
ail last winter by burning old books.
Now that Portland can choose her
own books and has a four year instead
of a six year period it is planned to
change old books In relays so as tt
distribute the expense. One year, foi
eaxmple, all the arithmetic and his
tory textbooks would be changed to
be usefor four years from the tiir
the change was made. The next year
spellers and grammars would be
changed and so on through four years
so that the expense would be kept
evenly divided.
Changes made between the second
term and the first term of the last
school year are estimated to have
saved the parents of Portland school
children .J18.116 and for this present
terra over the second term of last year
the saving is estimated to be $18.
924.91, provided In both cases tho
books were purchased new.
Although the list of books for the
high schools seems long It is explained
by school officials that it includes a
number of options.

I other critic of the proposed constitu
tional amendment. He pleads for the
farmers of Coos county, who he thinks,
will be affected by the measure. Up
to this time Mr. Bennett has not stated
just how he, personally, would be af
fected. Both Mr. Coovert and Mr. Ben
nett are practical men, and they .would
consider it foolish to waste very much
of their time in the public interest.
But to return to the troubles of Mr.
Coovert. If this measure can not de
prive shore owners of their right to
wharf to navigable water, why should
he worry? The fact that he does worry
might be taken as an indication that
he is afraid that the measure might
cut off the access of shore owners who
have never-availed themselves of the
license or franchise given under the
Wharfing act of 1862. He says: "If
the measure Dasses it mieht unsettle
the question." That, of course, means !
that Mr. Coovert has a subconscious
doubt about the vested rights of his
friends, the shore owners, to wharf to
navigable water as a riparian right.
Attitude Before and After.

lous measures to be voted upon at the
imcmuer eiecnon is tne Jackson-.Mulkey
Watherfront amendment.
Is Covert Interested?
Mr, Coovert undertakes to analyze
tbe amendment; states it to be an un
constitutional attempt to divest the
owners of vested rights protected
under the constitution of the United
States, and is particular to convey the
idea that his observations are those of
a disinterested person. He says: "I km

no objection to the "railroad rate bill.
Oh, no, but it must bp a constitutional
bill. If amended as suggested by them
it would stand the constitutional test
and no vested right would be dis
turbed. They, however, neglected to
state that If the bill be subjected to
their constitutional dentistry the teeth
of the bill would be drawn. Of course,
the railroads had no objection to the
harmless inoculations proposed by the
senators who subsequently were to be
come their attorneys. Of course, it
use. He says: "the proposed measure
provides that the beds of navigable
waters of the state at full bank stage
are subject to Public use." This is not
correct, Mr. Coovert neglected to ex
plain that the measure qualifies the
public use; for continuing at the point
where Mr. Coovert's quotation of the
measure ends, the measure says "for
water commerce, navigation and im
provements in aid thereof." so that the
public use is a limited one and is the
same kind of a use that is now im
pressed upon the shores of the navi
gable waters of the state by the law
as it exists today. Of course, Mr. Coo
vert knows this as he also knows that
the rights of shore owners are now
subject to public use for commerce and
navigation and that the supreme court
of the United States has held that tho
exercise of the rights of navigation by
the government without compensation
to the shore owner on navigable water
does not invade a vested right.
Again Mr. Coovert Errs.
Mr. Coovert contends that the meas
ure provides that wharves already con
stnicted may be taken by a munici
pality, by payment of the value of
such improvements, under condemna
tion proceedings. Here again, is Mr.
Coovert in error. The amendment pro
vides no such thing. It says: 'that no
city or town shall construct or main
tain municipal docks within the cor
porate limits of another city or town
without the consent of the latter, or
upon submerged lands upon which
docks have been heretofore built under
constitu-1 the terms of sections 6201, 5202 Lord's
uregon l.aws, witnout compensation
given in the manner required by law."
The measure does not undertake to
provide that the compensation given
shall be for the value of Improvements
only, nor does it lay down the rules
for the measure of .compensation. As
to shore owners, who now have docks,
they are to be compensated in the
manner required by law. If they can
only be compensated for value of im
provements it is because that is "in
the manner required by law" and does
not result from anything contained in
the proposed amendment. In my judg-
Colonel Wood Lauds
Wilson Peace Plans
President Should Bavs tne Support
of All Classes In Crisis, Assarts tk
Speaker.
"Wood row Wilson is not a Demo
cratic president, he is not a Republican
president. He is the president of the
whole American people and as such he
deserves the sincere support of every
American citisen, regardless of party
pontics or the scurvy attacks of a
partisan press, in his great work of
promoting peace on earth, good will
toward men."'
With these words Colonel C. E. S.
Wood closed an address before the
Progressive Business Men's club. In
which he defined America's opportu
nity in view of the Kuropean war.
It is America's opportunity, he de
clared, to work for peace and uninter
rupted trade relations with all na
tions. Wars, he said, are born of
wars. Armaments cause rather than
prevent wars. There should be be
tween nations no bristling guns to for
bid peace, no tariff walls to fprbld
free commerce. No tariff affecting
the price of commodities to consumers
should be Imposed, but the support of
public institutions should be secured
from that foundation of all wealth
and source of products, the land and
Its values.
"The nations of the world In this
modern time are all one commercial
family," declared .Colonel Wood, "and
there should no more be tariff walls
between nations than 1 between the
states of our own country."

manded. The arrest of K. H. Tape, Chinese
Interpreter attached to the Seatle of
fice of the United States bureau of
immigration, on a charge of accepting
bribes for allowing the entrance of
Chinese into the United States, has
brought a strong letter of commenda
tion from A. Camlnetti, commissioner
general of immigration, of K. P. Bon
ham, inspector attached to the Port
land office, for his efforts in the case.
Tape was arrested yesterday and
was released by United States Com
missioner John C. Vhitlock upon fur
nishing $10,000 bonds. His trial will
be held In the near future.
The work on the case from the time
suspicion was aroused was done large
ly by Bonham. He secured affidavits
from 15 Chinese stating that they had
paid Tape from $100 to $5000, he in
turn agreeing to pass them into the
United States. It is said. too. that a
number of records are missing from
the files 0 the Seattle office and the
government officials are trying to
trace thetn to Tape.
Camlnetti in his letter to Inspector
Bonham praises him highly for his
efforts In connection with the rase.
