Salem school director last night waded Into legislative questions affecting schools and took their first official stand, went on rec ord in favor of including Salem district in Senator Woodward's bill which would permit school districts to issue warrants at 5 per cent interest to the amount of taxes payable. The board now pays C per cent Interest, the legal rate, on Its warrants and has $12,000 budget item for warrant interest this year. Shying at the transportation actTepeal, the directors attacked the high school tuition law as un fair. General sentiment was that Interest on buildings and equip ment should be included In tul tlon payments. These Items were ruled Illegal by the supreme court last fall but only because of method of their collection. The ruling reduced annual tuition per pupil In this district from ap proximately $97 to $84.50. The directors asserted the dis trict wants "a fair remuneration in tuition payment" and pointed out that many districts receive as much as $200 per pupil, while Salem has more tuition pupils than any other but receives $84.50.

Meier In a special message to the legislature yesterday urged that body to me morialize congress, urging Imme diate development of the Colum bia river for power. The governor urged the legislature to impress particularly upon that body that Oregon and its municipalities stand ready to enter into eon tracts for the purchase of power, once a feasible project Is author ised." The governor in his message outlined his own advocacy for Co lumbia river development as well as that of the late George W. Jo seph, declaring that both men owed their election to this plank He declared that the development must be a federal government procedure with three or five northwest states cooperating in buying the created power from the -river development. The executive also urged the legislature to memorialise other legislatures now In session In the northwest, calling upon them to seek federal development of the Columbia. "In the Columbia river there is enough potential eheap power to grind all the grain, spin all the wool, turn the wheels of all In dustries, tunnel all the mines, electrify all the transportation systems, reclaim hundreds of thousands of acres of land, he declared.
