SCHOOL TAX LEVY ESSEHTIAL FOR BOYSAI GIRLS ' It la the plain duty of every reg istered voter to express himself on the proposed 3 mill tax at Saturday's school election.? declared William P. Woodward today- "I am a candidate fo school director, but I place the X mill tax measure as of tremendous ly .more Importance than the candt-.. dacy of any individual for member ship on the hoard. j . "The purpose of this proposed .tax levy Is to provide funds for the con ". struction of school building for which there is immediate and imperative need. The same need existed a year ago when . a bond issue was proposed for a similar pur ww The bom) issue was defeated, and ft is regrettahle to say that fewer than E per cent of the registered voters appeared at the polls. The measure to , provide safe and sanitary school rooms was defeated by public indifference. i The growth in the school enrollment "" has compelled the construction of more 'portable structures which, in -many re epects, are miserable makeshifts. In the - winter time especially these Btruo- ; tures are unfit for children to study in, ' as there sometimes exists a difference of 20 degrees in the temperature of the air at the floor level and on the level -with the children's heads. Tet funds for permanent . structures have been withheld. . ' ' , , ; " "The proposed S mill tax levy would provide less than - (1,000.000. and while the use of portables could not immedi- - ately be done away with, " due to the magnitude of the problem and the fact 'that the proceeds therefrom would not be available for some time, a comfort able start would be assured toward the time when enough permanent buildings - would be available to house all the boys and girls. Further the present condi tion invites the growth of the private , school and militates against the public school. v "Portland " has invested millions in -' business r and . . industrial ' development. Her population is growing; Her many ' advantages Invite newcomers. The ulti mate advantage of the visit of throngs of convention visitors in the city this month is the quota of permanent resi dents it eventually will bring. To these newcomers, as well as to those now dwelling here, the city must offer ade quate public school structures to house their boys and girls. And this offer - cannot be made without approval of the a mill measure at Saturday's school election." Ancient Mariner' Taken From Small Boat on High Seas Aberdeen, Wash.. June II. (X. N. S.)
