SCHOOL BOARD SEEKS "
UGHT ON RIGHT TO
CUT BOOK CONTRACT
Politics; for Big Business Is
Pointed Out in4 McCamant's
Attacks on Muzzey
WAR TIME SIGNALS GLARE
ETupsrfcutendant Alderman sheds Some
Ugnt on Controversy With 8n
preme Conrt JTustloe.
Ribbed up by the aspersions cast by
Justice Wallace McCamant upon DaviJ
Bavllle Muzzeys American History,
the school board has. now asked Dis
trict Attorney Evans to tell it whether
can follow the suggestion of the
supreme court justice, break the eon
tract It has made with the publishers
of the history and drop the use of the
book as a text book in the Portland
high schools for the remaining year of
the contract period. In the meantime
the plot thickens. '
Justice McCamant attacks the
barbed wire entanglements with flam
ing vocal sword. ,
Where." he demands In substance.
"is the hatchet of George Washington
burled?" and in substance he gives an
swer to himself, "not in Muszey'S his
tory."
Distress signals Appear
Where." he thunders, "is General
HerkhimerT. I can't find him." Mr
Muzzey cites him to the page where
his deeds are noted.
The school board, pending the opin
ion of the district attorney as to
whether it will be lawful to break a
written contract, even on the ougges
tion of Justice McCamant, has "dug
itself in" and is sending up star bombs
and distress signals to Mr. Mussey and
bis publishers, calling them to send up
tne reserves and turn bSck Justice
McCamant'a latest offensive. '
I R- Alderman, city superintendent of
sohools, who has studied American his
tory a little bit at least, and who has
taught it to some extent, hurls a hand
grenade or two over the McCamant
parapets. ,
It seems to me." Superintendent
Alderman says, "that Justice McCae
mant Is trying to make a show of
great patriotism Just at this psycho
logical moment; that he Is playing
politics.
Charge of Politics Made
The Muszey controversy first came
up about a year ago, when Justice Mc
Camant recommended to the board
that it employ Professor M. L. Pratt
as a teacher of history and patriotism
in the public schools. Professor Pratt
is in bis dotage, an old, old man. and
some say that he never was very keen
in history. We think that we have
some very good courses in American
history, that Professor Pratt would
have difficulty In teaching. We gave
him a position in the night schools
and his work was not very satisfac
tory.
When the board did not follow the
recommendations of Justice McCa
mant, as to Professor Pratt, he start
ed, bis attack on the Muzzey history
He seemed to think that it was a book
ror the grade schools, and objected to
it because it did not teach the hero
tales of American history. It is not a
graae text, but is for high school etvr-
aents. -wno nave long ago learned
about the story of George Washinr
ton's hatchet, and now want to know
something about the causes and
fects of the growth, and davelopment
of the United States. It is a high
school book, teaching the economics
or History.
Big Interests Peatnre Seem
"The fact of the matter,'- continued
Mr. Alderman, "is that Justice Mc
Camant takes the "big business' side
of the subject and Muzzey does not.
Justice McCamant is a standpatter.
and Mr. Muzzey docs not seem to be
lieve tnat everytninr in the country
should have been, or should be, turned
over 10 me Dig interests. It seems
to me, from his crlticsms, that thi
is the underlying and fundamental
oa&is or bis objection to the Muzzev
history, not the absence of the hero
taies.
"Anvwav." Mr. AMnrman mo
"dos it not seem a little strange that
a justice or the supreme court should
tell the school board that if it did not
break a dead, open-and-shut written
contract with the publishers of the
text book he would 'expose' it to the
u. A. R.7"
High School Boys Patrlotlo
Dr. Drake, with whom Justice Mc-
i Camant has had most of his corre-
Biruuaeuce rcgaj-fuag ue AlUZZey nls
tory, says that ha does not agree with
the Jurist about the lack of patriotism
in the high schools.
"I have seen no manifestation' of
lack of patriotism in the high schools,'
he said this morning. "More than two
nunarea nign scnooi Doys are some
where in the service now as volun
teers. The "pacifism' which Justice
McCamant seems to find In the book
evidently did not reach them."
Dr. Alan Welch Smith, another mem
ber of ' the board, reserves his com
ment on the controversy until the
board takes official action.
T do not want to comment on the
subject until It comes before the board
officially," he said. "I do not know
that the schools are overrun with pa
triotism.- ne said, "but the high school
boys have responded well.- Theyf are
not more unpatriotic than the big class
outside of the schools who have never
come Into contact with the Muzzey' his
tory ' ;
N. O. Pike, another member of the
board, says that he knows nothing of
the details of the controversy, but that
he does not see how the board' can
break a written contract made . with
the publishers. ':.y. r - ,

SAYS FARMER EDITOR
E. E. Faviile Savs Portland
Must Lodk to Interior for
Its Future Upbuilding.
The four northwest states will pro
duce a billion-dollar erop this year,
predicted B. E. Faviile. editor of the
Western Farmer, in an address Tues
day afternoon before the Rotary club.
Portland, he added, mffit look for
its strength and upbuilding to the
great interior east of the Cascades
which this year will produce millions
of bushels of wheat. The friendliness
of the relations established, the qual
ity of service given, will in large
measure determine the future of Port
land, he declared.
Mr. Faviile particularly praised the
foresight and acumen of Portland in
voting the $3,000,000 freight and grain
terminal at the last election. It will
do much to direct the business of .the
Columbia basin in this direction, he
believes, and will give this city an ad
vantage ln.lt competition with Puget
souna.

awarding pavement contracts, would
require of tho successful bidder not
only a guarantee for-workmanship and
material, but also a It year mainten
ance guarantee. '
It was on this understanding that
strong support was given the measure.
It has been noted, however, that
when specifications were prepared for
the 10 mile paving contract in Uma
tilla county they called for only a
five year maintenance and guarantee
of workmanship and material. An
bids were based on that condition.
Tiro Tsar Cost fTOOO
To com within the letter of the 10
year maintenance understanding
the j
commission entered Into
separate j
contract with the successful bidder to
maintain the road for an additional
five year .period at a cost of 1 cents
per square yard per year,
In the contract are 70.000 sauare I
yards of pavement. Accordingly, the
state - will, beginning the sixth year.
pay the contractor .11400 a year -to
maintain 10 mile of pavement At
the end of the five year term the main-
tenance cost will be 17000
This Is regarded as more than a
nominal maintenance charge, as It ap
proaches the actual cost.
Th action of the state highway
commission la criticised on the ground
that If a 10 year guarantee Is to bs
demanded, it should have been so Stat
ed In the advertisement for proposals.
and not made an afterthought when
all bids were In.
Btultaoaaah ngurea Cheaper
Thi would have placed all bidders
on an equal footing. While the con
dltions ar not altogether parallel it
Is Interesting to compare the Umi
tilla- maintenance contract with the
one recently made by Multnomah
county in the paving of the St. Hel
ens road. In both cases the contrac
tor and the pavement are the same.
In the Multnomah contract the charge
for" maintenance for a term of 10
years Is .00031 per square yard per
year. The yardage Is 101,684 square
yards, making the yearly maintenance
cost the nominal sum of 8IZ.11 a
year, or $121.10 for the 10 year period.
In comparing ths two contracts It
is only fair to take Into consideration
that climatic conditions differ, there
being greater extremes of heat and
cold in Umatilla county and that ths
pavements are of different width. The
Umatilla county road being narrow
does not allow for so great a distrl
button of traffics as the Multnomah
county one, 18 feet wide.
Early Estimates Exoeeded
Under these conditions the upkeep
of the Multnomah county pavement
should be less than on the Umatilla
road.
It will be recalled that during the
campaign The Journal, while advo
cating the adoption of the bond meas
ure, took the ground that tho prom
ises made to secure a mile of paved
road for 810,000 would not be realised.
This position is Justified In the Uma
tllla contract.
The length of road to he paved Is 10
miles, and the contract on the basis
of the engineer's estimate calls for
8119,120. or approximately $12,000 a
mile.
xne contract covers 70.000 square
yards of pavement, the unit price of
which Is $1.28 a square yard. This
gives a total of 890.800. or 89080 a
mile. If the pavement comprised all
