Already the conferees on the

Specs of a month he made the cir
cuit of the U. S. A. by rail, stop

Senator McNary and on Jefferson
Meyers of the shipping board.
Meyers told Taylor that Oregon
ought to return McNary to the
senate, for his splendid service to
the fanning Interests.
About the best farming coun
try he observed was the dairying
section of New York state. There
were signs of much prosperity
there which were not apparent in
other states. As good corn grows
in Salem as anywhere else that
he saw, was Mr. Taylor's com
ment.
He brought back with him a
clipping from a Beaumont, Texas.

drying of hay. Heat from coal
fires driven by ventilating fans
through the green hay dried it
quickly regardless of the state of

ing proposal was advanced by
Arthur J. Mason, of Chicago, but
tnere was nothing in the article
to indicate that artificial drying
of hay had passed Into the prac
tical stage from the experimental.

raids Wednesday which broke up
the $1,000,000 organization.
William J. Calhoun. New Jersey

The administrator made public
the names of two of the four

zation. The Institutions, he an
nounced, were not involved in any
irregularities.

"Fireman, save my child!"
That cry hasn't been heard In
Salem for years, this city having
been fortunate enough to escape
any conflagration in which hu
man life was seriously en
dangered. Nevertheless, Salem's smoke
eaters have a warm spot in their
hearts for the kiddies, in demon
stration of which they have
launched plan this year to assist
In promoting Christmas cheer
among needy folk especially
the boys and girls who might.
without their help, find empty
stockings on Christmas morn.
The firemen have made arrange
ments, through cooperation with
the Elks, Boy Scouts and other
organizations, to collect and re
pair broken or discarded toys,
turning them over to the Elks
for distribution where they will
do the most good.
Persons who have toys which
they are willing to part with are
asked to get in touch with the
firemen but be careful I They
are asked not to call the down
town fire station, because that
would be virtually the same thing
as turning in a false fire alarm.
Collection of the toys will be
handled through the East Salem
fire station, and the telephone
number is 81. C. V. Faulkner is
In charge.
The actual collection will be
done by a group of Boy Scouts
under the direction of Rex San-
ford, scoutmaster. The city has
been zoned, and when a call
eomes in stating that boys anfiy
be obtained at a certain address;
the scout in that sone will call
at the home and receive them.
Paving Program
Will Be Carried
Through Rapidly
Good weather the last few days
has practically guaranteed the
completion of this year's paving
program in Salem, It was stated
Saturday by Walter Low, street
commissioner. The stretch of pav
ing to be done on Broadway Is the
only one in question. Paving was
proceeding there Friday and Sat
urday under difficulties, It being
necessary to use plank in order
to move the material. No paving
was done Thursday on account of
the rain Wednesday and that
morning.
The only other unit of paving
remaining to be done is on North
Front street, a stretch of seven
blocks, but this is being prepared
fof paving and will probably be
completed, as soil conditions there
are more favorable.

OVERLAPPING

Principals Adopt Resolution
At Annual Session in
City Yesterday
Investigation Also Ordered
In Matter of Money
Spent for Pins
Investigation of the overlapping
of subject matter in the various
units of the Oregon school system,
including the first two years In
the institutions of higher learning
was urged in a resolution adopted
at the closing session of the state
high school principals association
here Saturday.
- Another resolution provided for
the appointment of a committee to
study the problem of articulation
of the units of the school system
through which the pupils pro
gressively pass from elementary
grades through the Institutions of
higher learning.
A committee also was author
ized to Investigate conditions in
the high schools relative to the
purchase of class rings and pins
and the publication of so-called
annuals.
Affiliation Favored
With National Group
The association went on record
favoring affiliation with the Na- i
tional Education association. i
The small high schools of Ore
gon should be carefully scrutin
ized and be permitted to exist
only if they meet certain stan
dards of efficiency, according to
F. L. Stetson, chairman of the
committee on the reorganization
of small high schools. Mr. Stet
son's report resulted in consider
able opposition but was approved.
Special objection was voiced to
the requirement that the small
one, two and three teacher high
schools be limited as to the sub
jects they might be permitted to
offer. i
The association adopted the re-;
port of F. S. Knight in which he
recommended a uniform marking
system for the high schools of the
state. In-addition to the stan
dards for the larger high schools
established by the Northwest as
sociation of secondary and higher
schools, six additional standards
will be added for the Oregon high
schools, according to a report pre
sented by a committee of which
Norman C. Thorpe is chairman.
Mrs. Virginia Bacon, state li
brarian, discussed the activities
of the state library, followed by
discussion of new college en
trance requirements by E. B. Lem
on of the Oregon state college and
Earl M. Pallett of the University
of Oregon. Class size and effi

Thielsen is
Named Upon
Zoning Body
Fred D. Thielsen, local business
man whose residence is a short
distance outside the city on the
Jefferson road, has been appoint
ed to membership on the city
planning and zoning commission,
succeeding A. L. Headrick, who
died recently. The appointment
was made by Mayor Livesley, and
bears the date October 15, but
was not made public until Satur
day. The planning and zoning com
mission has jurisdiction under the
state law, extending six miles out
side the eity limits, and the local
ordinance provides for the ap
pointment of not more than two
members living in this area: Prior
to Mr. Thielsen's appointment, all
of the members lived within the
city.
Strangely, the commission has
greater powers outside the city
than it has inside. Its acts with
respect to improvements in the
city axe merely recommendations
to the council; but It has full pow
er to approve or disapprove plats
of new additions in the six mile
radius outside the city. .
