SPECIAL SCHOOL
TAX IS URGED BY
NFS
CANDIDATE JO
Seeker . for Place cm Board of
Education in Favor of Adequate
Buildings for - School Needs.
Arthur W. Jones, candidate ,. for
lection as school director at the
coming; school election of Saturday,
June 19, in 'announcing; his position
as - a candidate, makes strong advo
cacy of the proposed special tax
levy of 8 mills for the, purpose of
constructing additional school build
ings. ' In a statement outlining; bis
platform. Jones says: 5 ' y
Z favor the passage of the proposed 3
- mill tax for the purpose of providing
adequate school buildings for this city.
There Is room for considerable dif
ference of opinion as to what constitutes
adequacy and upon this difference
much may depend. -
My impression is that the first requi
site - is sufficient, room capacity to not
only cover present needs, but to provide
for a conservative growth.

' "In the expenditure of public funds, it
la 'well that public officials keep' their
feet on the ground, so to speak. "While
X 'believe that our school buildings
should be on a par with the school build
lngs of other cities, it does not neces
sarily follow that we should expend un
reasonable amounts of money In appeal
ing to the esthetic at the expense of the
'practical. There must oe a.saie miaaie
around between the tight-wad' and the
visionary ; some place where the beauti
ful would not be entirely lost in the
nractlcal. or vice versa. .-,
"In the matter of character of school
buildings. I would be guided by a com
posits of the best opinion available from
recornised authorities, giving due con
sideration to the esthetic and practical
Questions Involved and having an eye to
the limits , of the public patience in the
expenditure of money, but with a strong
leaning toward the practical.
. SCHOOL MAIKSTAT
: "1 believe that the public school is one
of the enter nuiwaras ox our ciYuiuon,
and that it should be so conducted in
conformity with present laws that no
considerable number of our people should
consider any other, form of elementary
schools either necessary r desirable.
I further believe that the only requl
sites to securing a position on the edu
cational or managerial staff should be
those provided by law. plus a proper in
quiry into the temperamental quaunca
tlons of the applicant.
There follows one question which all
authorities agree is fraught with dyna
mite, which is that of industrial rela
tions. .
VA5T PEOPLE EMN-OTED
v"It should be known that . the school
board la one of the largest employers in
Portland, having on its payroll approx
imately 1600 people in the educational
division, -and 'from 200 to -C0 people la.
Its Janitorial and maintenance depart-!
ments. t " --
"I wish to quote John E. Rockefeller
Jr., who recently said that the time Is
past when successful operation and 100
per cent results can be obtained without
the cooperation of the operators, and who
suggests that in order that this .coopera
tion be secured the operators "be assured
ef proper consideration through confer
ence with representatives of their own
choosing. v- i
. "Also I quote Sir Auckland Geddea, the
new ambassador to this country from
Great Britain, who, in a recent inter
view, very graphically says : "An age is
dying." and "no longer are people willing
to engage in the struggle of life with -no
hope further than to avoid starvation"
in .which statement I agree.
PBOGBESSITE IDEAS BEST ' 1 y
i "Therefore, I believe, in line with the
progressive thinkers of this " era. that
whenever. matters ? present themselves
before the school board in which the in
terests of the teachers and other em
ployes are paramount,' they should be ac
corded the privilege or the right to 'be
heard through representatives of their
own choosing. ;
t "I would qualify the foregoing, how
ever, by the statement that in my opin
ion the promotion to or the selection of
people for i supervisory positions should
test squarely -with the board or the prop
er officers thereof."

FOR: DESTRUCTION
OF SIBERIAN CITY
Japanese (Consul Receives Word
of Massacre in .Jail ' Set on
Fire by the Russian Troops.
' Russians .were responsible for the
burning , of the Siberian 'city of .Nik
olaevsk and not Japanese, who occu
pied the city June 3, says an offi
cial dispatch received Friday by T.
Suglmura,! consul of Japan for the
Portland district. : The message also
tells' of the reported massacre of
Japanese ' by Russians at . that city.
The message follows:
. "On June the army dispatched by
the Japanese to the northeast coast of
Siberia marched into Nlkolaevsk and
then captured the fortress while the
partisans fled. All the Russian soldiers
in the city and vicinlty; vanished. Before
they left,, they set fire to the city and
all the main buildings have been reduced
to ashes. Flames were still in evidence
June 5. These Russians, are now : at
tempting by all kinds of insidious propa
ganda to shifts the responsibility upon
the Japanese, whom they falsely accuse
of netting fire to their city
' "It is an : established factthat 180
Japanese survivors who were detained
by Russian forces in connection with the
recent Nlkolaevsk case have been, thrown
into prison and subjected to every kind
of harsh treatment, and ignominious in
sult by the Russians. - On May 25 the
cruel partisans set fire to the jail, where
these 130 unoffending Japanese were lo
cated and massacred all of them. Mn
consequence there were no Japanese left
alive except 14 women who are- alleged
to be the wives of Russians and Chinese.
"The above facts are a mere outline to
illustrate the cruel and Inhumane con
duct of the Russians; The' outcry against
the Russians is dally growing stronger
and a vigorous protest is being made by
the Japanese press against the continued
barbarities and atrocities perpetrated by
the Russians." .

Chicago, June 12. (I. N, S.) A bill
was filed in the superior court today by
George R. Da Hon, seeking to have Wil
liam J. Bryan restrained. from appearing

of prohibition. . Dal ton sets up that in
1916 Bryan contracted to appear in a
picture for him but failed to do so and
as a result Dal ton claims he lost $112,000
which he had invested in the film.
