TEACHERS TO ASK
LEGISLATURE FOR
iYI ! E! "FUJI
Pedaeorues Framing Bill That
- Will Give Them Higher Sali
aries to Be Offered Legislature
-.Tb school teachers of Oregon are
going- to be heard from at the com
it.g special session of the legislature
through a bill, now being framed In
the office of the state superintend
ent of. public instruction at Salem,
providing for a continuing; annual
miliar a appropriation, fixed by stat
ute for the use of the common
schools of the state. This Is In ac
cordance with the recommendations
made at the rodent convention of the
State . Teachers' association, which
' went , pn record as approving the
proposal to ask for a statutory mill
age tax law of 2 mills on the as-
I ' sessed valuation of the state.
,A. measure to be tentatively framed
by Superintendent ChurchtU and his as
sistant Professor Carleton, Is to be In
troduced when the legislature convenes
as the basis for definite action by the
assembly.
1 When the state teachers convention
met In Portland recently two proposals
- were submitted to It for consideration.
One was the millage tax Idea, which
could be enacted Into law by the legis
lature should it so desire, and without
submission to the people. The other was
i the proposal either to repeal the per
! eent tax limitation clause of the state
I constitution in Its entirety, or to so
.-amend it as to exempt the public school
system of the state from its operation.
BEMOOEL CONSTITCTIOJT
' The first proposal was championed by
the upstate teachers. The second was
, put forward by representatives of the
teachers ef Portland, who contended that
the constitutional provisions of Califor
nia exempted Its educational institutions
from the tax limitation in effect In that
- state and argued that the Oregon con
stitution should be remodeled after the
- plan in fore in California,
r - After more or less contention the con
v ventlon stood behind the millage tax
!" plan, though there Is still some talk that
I the attempt to persuade the legislature
to submit a repealing, or at least a
modifying amendment to the six per
" Cent limitation clause has not been en-j
Urely abandoned by those who have been
Standing sponsor for It.
' Be that a it may the state teachers'
organisation looks upon the millage tax
' bill .as the official request of that body
, and will urge its enactment into law. A
I min levy.on the present basis of ap
- proximately '190,000,000 as the assessed
- valuation of the state's property, would
give an annual millage appropriation of
approximately f 1,980.000 for the use of
the schools of the state.
, The' details of the distribution of this
- sum Within the various counties and
, school districts of the state, is the big
problem confronting State Superintend
ent Chsrehlll and those who are asso
v elated with him in framing the proposed
bllL' Jt has not yet been finally de
termined whether It would be more
equitable to baa tR' dlstrlbutlen
on county and district population in
general; on the relative ratio of scnool
population, or on the ratio of property
valuations as shownby the assessment
, - rtfllf oJthe different counties and school
dtatriet forming -their subdivisions.
JTKEDtaOBE FAT
Educators of the state feel that she
schools "of the state must have addl-
- tienai, and definite financial assistance,
particularly In the matter of salaries for
,,. the teachers. They feel also that they
-. are. in .position to go before the people
. of the State, should the millage tax bill
be submitted to the electorate for Its
approval as they desire, and demon
'strate not only the justice but the wls-
. dora Of their appeal. They contend that
such a millage tax would equalise the
tax bufden Imposed by the support and
maintenance of the schools, throwing It
more, equitably upon all property and all
taxpayers of the state, and, by that, re-doclng-the
present necessity of special
levies for school purposes now prevail
, ingjn, practically every county and dla-
, : trtet throughout the state.
Fr6frfwrial can be now learned the
proposal to tamper with the 6 per cent
tax limitation amendment does not meet
With the indorsement of the conserva
; . tire educational leaders, of the state.
They feel that they have a fair and con
, erete proposal to make to the voters In
ths.mflJafe tax bill, but fear iht h.
TWfl hot meet a friendly audience
inoura mey asK ror any change In the
- constitutional limitation.
1 It Is anticipated that the millage tax
measure will be one of the "big meas
ures" of the coming session.

GARDEN SEED
COST TO FALL
TTEGETABLE seed will be
cheaper this year, according
to the market editor, and there
is rejoicing among the home
gardeners.
Grass and pasture seed sup
plies of the United States are
so scarce at this time that sharp
advances are being forced In the
price. Bed clover is np 1 cent
for the day, while alsike has
advanced 5c a pound within the
last week.
This higher price and scarcity
of offerings Is due to the great
demand for all grass seeds from
France and other portions of
Europe. '
As a rale France sells much
clover seed to this country bat
the trade is now reversed.

Appeal Planned in
Fight to Deport
Japanese. "Sailor"
San Francisco, Jan. 7. (I. N. S.) A
decision by Federal Judge Frank H.
Rudkin. deciding that Hltoshi Watanbe,
a Japanese sailor, was not subject to de
portation under the federal immigration
laws, provided he could support himself
and would nof become a public charge,
was deemed so important today that an
appeal is to be made by the United
States attorney.
The Japanese deserted his ship, com
ing directly from Japan, on March 10,
1916. Since that time he has resided in
this country continuously. He was ar
rested a short time ago and ordered de
ported on the ground that he entered
the United States unlawfully. The gov
ernment's contention was that Watanbe
never Intended to follow the life of a
seaman, but used this means as a sub
terfuge to obtain entry into this coun
try. Marriage Licenses

ALLEGED I. W. W. IS
HALTED BY DEFENSE
Testimony of Portland Man for
Two Defendants Ruled Out
By Court.
Vancouver. "Wash., Jan- 7. The trial
of Leo Brookshler and Robert MeAdarrm.
alleged violators of the criminal syndi
calism law, was brought to a temporary
halt Tuesday afternoon when two im
portant witnesses for the defense failed
to appear.
Evidence for the state came to a close
earlier in the day and the defense began
with a man named Anderson of Port
land oft the stand. He professed to be a
student of economy, labor, and social
conditions in the United States. He
stated that he was not a member of the
I. W. W. organization and did not know
the defendants, but had talked to a num
ber of the members of the organisaUon
recently.
He testified that it Is his belief the
organisation of the I. W. W. does not ad
vocate radicalism, etc. His testimony
was objected to and the objection was
sustained.
Brookshler was put on the stand aad
said he was born in Missouri. His father
resides In Nam pa, Idaho, on a farm.
Brookshler Is a sheep herder. He joined
the I. W. W. in Pendleton July 1. 191S.
he said, came to Portland, then to Van
couver, where he was arrested. An at
tempt was made to show that he did not
know the character of the organization
when he joined, but this was objected to
and the objection sustained.
McAdams testified his parents reside
In Twin Falls, Idaho. He Is 21 years of
age and June 26, 1917, joined the United
States army. He served in France five
months. Since returning, he said, he
joined the L W. W. in Seattle. His edu
cation, he said, is limited to the eighth
grade, from which he graduated when 17
years of age.

port of everybody but Senators Hitch
cock, Underwood and Reed, But. It was
declared; the true situation Is that no
body today can say exactly how many
Democrats would vote for the Kendrick-
McKellar plan.
BBTAN MAT SPILL BEANS
Another difficulty, it was declared, is
that William J. Bryan Is understood to
have aided In preparing and is sponsor
ing the reservation. Bryan has few
friends among senate Democrats, and
hia share In authorship of the reserva
tions would not help them either in the
senate or at the White House, senators
said. .
It was further argued that even if 44
Democrats should support these reserva
tions and 12 Republican mild reserva
tionists voted for them that would give
a total of 66 votes, whereas 64 are
needed.
SENATORS MAT STAND PAT
The other eight would have to come
from supporters of Lodge reservations.

Mild reeervatlonists. after showing the
Democratic reservations to Lodge, de
cided to hold a conference to decide what
alterations are necessary. After the re
vision is completed, the reservations will
be returned to the Democrats with In
structions to find out beyond doubt how
many votes they can command. When
this has been learned, the reservation
lsts will report to Lodge and await his
verdict.
UNDERWOOD PLAN IN
BACKGROUND
If President Wilson does not com
pletely alter the situation and If negotia
tions should then fail, the Underwood
resolution for a conciliation committee
will be called up Friday or Saturday
and will be supported by many Demo
crats and Republicans as a last resort.
Senator King, Democrat, author of an
other set of reservations, today tried to
get Senator Lodge to support his pro
gram. King has so far failed to enlist
either Democrat or Republican reserva
tionists In his behalf.

Mabel Through With Men
Vancouver. Wash., Jan. 7. When
Mabel Lewandawskl, whose trip to Van
couver shortly before Christmas In
search of a husband attracted consider
able attention, returned to her home In
Detroit, Mich., she found awaiting ner
two letters from John Sullivan, one of
her mail order suitors. Inclosed la One
of the letters was a lock of hair shorn
from the head of the faithful John and
a touching appeal for her to return to
Vancouver.
Sullivan's letter was evidently written
after the disillusionment took place.
The two letters and one from Mabel
reached Chief of Police Garford with a
request that Sullivan's letters be given
publicity.
"I will never answer the best man's
letters again," Mabel writes.
"It was more than a disgrace," she
adds. "It said (speaking of accounts of
the affair in Detroit papers) I was ar
rested and 1 had four men out In Van
couver. I am the sorriest girl living. I
wouldn't look at the best man living.
"I went through enough. Men like
those I met, Sulivan and Deckert, were
only foolish, as they ought to know that
they would never win me, as I am
maybe pretty or good looking Just like
God brought me Into this world, but
those men will never have forgiven from
God what disgrace they brought such an
innocent girl like me."
"I am a true girl," she closes.
In a postscript she adds, "Sullivan
wanted a lock, of my hair for Chrlstmaa
Ha, Ha! He wouldn't get a chance to
see my hair. I do not send no hair for
Christmas."
"Thalr are 7 girls to one man here,
and lots of them are out of work now
as the pig fruit cannerys is closed for
the winter and lots of them have no
money," Sullivan wrote In part In one
letter. "I fell sorry for them.' Now

Mrs. Colwell maintains that the board

"When Premier Lloyd-George, A.

Slgnor Sclalola. the Italian foreign min
ister, go to Paris Thursday they will
start a conference during which It Is
planned to clear every, question that Is
outstanding," Sir William said.

"Flume probably will be international

CONFERENCE IS RESUMED
The conference between the British
and Italian officials in this city was
resumed in Downing street today.
"The meeting here is simply for pour

decisions will be taken at Paria
"By the application of self-determination,
Fiume belongs to Italy. We wish
most ardently to facilitate peace, but in
return we expect support along this line
on this all-important matter."
The following- prediction as to the re
sults Of the Paris meeUng was made by
the Dally News:
SETTLEMENT IS PREDICTED
"Flume will probably be settled an
Independent- city, with the hinterland
and labia annexed to Italy. In addi
tion Italy probably will get several is
lands of the Dalmatian group. Zars
may be made an Independent city, but
S pal a to will probably be a Jugo-Slav
port.
"A compromise between the French
and British Is likely so ss to allow the
Sultan to retain the caliphate at Con
stantinople. The caliphate would be
similar to the Vatican at Rome. It will
be probable that the seat of Turkish
power would be transferrer! to Broussa,
In Asia Minor. This solution was sug
gested by the British. The Bosphorus,
the Dardanelles and Constantinople are
expected to be internationalised under
a League of Nations mandate, and will
probably be administered by France,
Italy and Oreat Britain Jointly.
