Crose Explain s Land Grant Fund System Working of Oregon's land grant system of educational support the tasks of the state land board, faults of the scheme as originally operated and the Oregon experi ment as basis for action in other states were discussed Friday in a compressed and factual address before the Salem board of Realtors by A. J. Crose, state land board property manager. - Lack of records', the system by which county school superinten dents sold and issued deeds in early sales of the federal grants of two sections per township and the variety of loopholes left for graft in the early administration of the properties have been criti cized, Crose said. Low prices collected for lands in those early deals, he said never theless, resulted in putting onto tax rolls properties which have since paid for themselves in taxes, Crose pointed out Money for the sale of the land goes into irreducible school fund, but "too much of it. is in low in come bonds and cash" today be cause loans are hard to secure, according to the speaker. Fifty per cent security is re quired by statute and money is loaned on the value of lands and not upon the value of improve ments, although three years ago a provision for leans on urban property was made by . the legi slature. Currently the state land board has four or five such loans outstanding and at the close of the war a number will probably be made, Crose explained. In addition to the land grants, the state land board administers three trust funds, one of which includes a student loan fund. The state owns beds of navigable streams and lakes, -beaches be tween mean high and mean low water, and income from these sources is considerable the speak er declared.
