A petition for the right to install such a pole was received by the city planning and toning commission, and read at Monday night's meeting. J. The petition was referred to the council, . the commission deciding that it did not have jurisdiction in the matter. V STATE OFFICE BUILDING fv. MAY. MEET APPROVAL (Continued from pmg 1.) under measures approved by the voters of the state at the last gen eral election. i . . It was said that a few telegrams have been received by the gov ernor from Eugene requesting him to sign ' a bill carrying an appro priation of $ 3 7 5,0 0 0 for the erec tion: of a new library building at Pie nniversity of Oregon. : Friends of the governor 'indicated that this appropriation bill Vould he vetoed along with other bills carrying appropriations for new buildings. A number of state officials called upon Governor Patterson yesterday morning and urged that he affix his signature to the bill carrying an appropriation for the erection of a new office building in Salem. It was argued that this appropriation would not affeet the taxpayers in that the money would be borrowed from the state indus trial accident fund and repaid out of rentals assessed against the de partments occupying space in the building. The governor refused .to indicate what action he would take in connection with the bill. Governor Patterson left here before noon yesterday for Port land where he addressed a worn an's organization of that city. He will spend a few hours in Corval lis today. As a result of these ap pointments it was not believed here that he would consider any of the more Important bills now on his desk before Wednesday. Before leaving for Portland today the governor signed 11 bills carrying appropriations for the various state departments, board and commissions. The most im portant of these bills was one ap propriating approximately $210. 000 for the support of the Oregon national guard. Other bills signed by Governor Patterson today fol low: HB 534, by joint ways and means committee Appropriating funds for maintenance -of execu tive, state and treasury depart ments. HB 535, by joint ways and means committee Appropriation for transportation of insane. HB 536, by joint ways and means committee iApproprlation for state library and supreme court library.

At the present time, a beginning teacher must be a grad uate of a four-year high school and must have attended a stand ard normal school for a period of thirty-six weeks before she is eligible to enter the teachers ex amination. House Bill No. 368 provides that after January 1, 1929, a minimum of forty-eight weeks are required, after January 1, 1931, sixty weeks are required, and after January 1, 1933, seventy-two weeks are required. This law also provides that the board of regents of normal schools is au thorized to establish a course of study which will meet the require ments of standard teachers' col leges, upon the completion of which course the graduate shall receive a certificate entitling him to teach in any school in the state. It also provides that the graduates of standard colleges and universi ties who have completed twenty four semester hours in education, including courses in elementary school methods of teaching and practice teaching in the elemen tary schools, shall receive a certi ficate valid to- teach in the ele mentary and high schools of the state. In order to provide additional facilities for teachers' training in the state, the legislature passed House Bill No. 589, which appro priates $175,000 for a normal school building at La Grande and $40,000 for the maintenance of that institution for the biennium. House Bill No. 574 makes an appropriation of $175,000 for a new classroom building and for remodeling and enlarging the li brary of the Oregon Normal school at Monmouth, and also $121,000 for the maintenance of this insti tution for the biennium. $150,000 was appropriated for the Southern Oregon Normal school at Ashland, for the purpose of constructing and famishing a dormitory, and $33,210 for the maintenance of the institution. House Bill No. 14 provides that in June, 1927, and every four years thereafter, the state board of education shall appoint a state board of textbook commissioners, consisting of five citizens of recog nized scholarship and profession al training, who shall have been actively and continuously engaged in teaching, or in the? supervision of schools in this state, for the five years preceding the date of appoinment, provided that com missioners shall be selected from only such school districts as are, at the time of appointment, re quired by law to use the text books selected by the state board of textbook commissioners, or from the education faculties of normal schools or higher institu tions of learning. House Bill No. 27 changes the date of the annual school election in the City of Portland from the third Saturday in June to the first Tuesday in June of each year. House Bills Nos. 50 and 51 make slight amendments in the law requiring school clerks to publish notices of school meetings. House Bill No. 64 eliminates ,from the law requiring the coun ty superintendent to apportion the county school fund, the apportion ment of five dollars to each teach er who has attended a teachers' institute during the year. The bill also provides for the apportion ment of the county school fund to subdistrfcts ln counties having the county unit system of school administration. House Bill No-,207 provides for a method for the paying of the person who audits the school clerk's books and accounts. House Bill No. 210 repeals sec tions 5640 and 5645, Oregon Laws, which required school boards to give the state land board the preferential right to purchase school bonds. House Bill No. 212 repeals sec tions 5039 and 5061, Oregon Laws, and substitutes the proce dure for the issuance of school bonds. ' House Bill No. 251 provides for the formation of union high school districts in counties having the county form of school admin istration. House Bill No. 280 amends the 'reading circle law by providing i BOX CANDY Try a Box of Our High Grade Pure Flavor Candy ; The Best Quality .. J. F.

In other words, if the applicant has performed some other exhaustive study, it shall be taken in lien of the reading cir cle Wjprk. The former law ex empted teachers in school districts of the first class. House Bill No. 349 provides that the minimum school term in Oregon shall be one hundred six ty days, exclusive of holidays. This will extend the minimum school term to approximately eight and one-half motnhs. House Bill No. 443 provides that in counties working under the county unit of administration, upon the mutual consent of the county school board and the union high school board, or the local school committee in a dis trict other than a union high school district, the management and control of the high school may be taken over by the county school board. This bill is so worded that it applies only to the schools of Lincoln ccunty. Senate Bill No. '38 amends sec tion 5052, Oregon Laws, which provides that school directors shall not have any pecuniary in terest in the erection of school houses, or the warming, ventilat ing, furnishing, or repairing of same. This bill provides that the provisions of this section shall not apply to a school board member in any third class district in re spect to labor in connection with repairs or maintenance, nor to the furnishing of fuel or supplies used in instruction. Senate Bill No- 152 amends the law relative to the dissolution of union high school districts. This bill provides that in addition to a majority or tne votes cast in a majority of all districts voting for the dissolution of a union high school district, that there must be a majority of all votes cast In said union high school district on this subject. In other words, this bill would require the same procedure for the dissolution of a union high school district as is now required for the, formation of a union high school district. Senate Bill No. 173 makes it the duty of the county school su perintendent, when apportioning money to a consolidated district that provides transportation to the pupils of the district, that he shall apportion to the consolidated dis trict the state elementary school fund which the annexed district was entitled to receive at the time of consolidation. Senate Bill No. 58 provides for the exemption of any district, or part of a district, of a county operating under the law known as the county high school fund law from the operation of this law should said district become a part of a union high school district which extends into another coun ty. This bill was passed in order to allow a number of districts in Lane county to become a part of the union high school district at Harrisburg in Linn bounty. ' Senate Bill No. 279! amends sec tion 5325, Oregon Laws, which re lates to the county high school tuition fund. The law enumerates the items that are tq be used by the clerks of high school districts in reporting the tcftal cost of maintaining and operating the high school. The 925 legisla ture added the following items: Transportation, interest on cur rent warrants, and jthe interest upon the fair valuation of the in vestment of high schqjol buildings, after depreciation naif been taken into consideration. This bill amends the foregoing item to read as follows: "Interest upon the fair value of the Investment in high school buildings, including shops, gymnasiums, garage, and the like, after depreciation has been taken into consideration." The following Item is added to the list: Interest on the fair value of the investment In high school furniture, equipment and apparatus, after depreciation has been taken into consideration.

"It was their own offensive, not ours, that "consummated the ruin of the Germans," he continues. "They were worn down, not by Joffre, Nivelle and Haig, but by Ludendorff. If our whole strat egy and tactics had been directed to compel the enemy to attack, would not the final victory have been sooner won?" Churchill , scores the neglect of the "eastern theaters" of war, and says the "plan of British and al lied war which would best have served our interests in the year 1916, would have been a surprise attack upon the Dardanelles." The Germans, likewise, he says. missed, an opportunity in the east to decisively dispose of Russia and to take over Rumania's grain and oil when Verdun was chosen as the objective.. .The order in which the events of 1917 broke the deadlock of mu tual "butchering" is important, eays the author. "If the allies had been left to face the collapse of Russia with out being sustained by the inter vention of the United States,, It seems certain- that France could not have survived the year, and the war would have ended in a peace by negotiation, or, in other words, a German victory." "The total defeat of Germany," he says, "was due to three card inal mistakes; the decision to march through Belgium regardless of bringing Britain into the war; the decision to begin the unre stricted U-boat war regardless of bringing the United States Into the war; and thirdly, the decision to use the German forces liberated from Russia in 1918 for a final onslaught in France. "There is no need to exaggerate the material assistance given by the United States to the allies. All that could be sent was given as fast and -as freely as possible. But the War ended long before the material power of the United States , could be brought to bear as a decisive or even as a princi pal factor. But if the physical power of the United States waa not in fact applied in any serious degree to the beating down of Ger many; the moral consequence of the United .States joining the al lies was "indeed the deciding cause in the conflict."
