SqlemvOroTosi School Dismissals Ordered; r Parents Hold Action 'Unjust (Story also on n U I' I 1 Following are statements of the school board and group of parents in regard to the board's order dismissing It students on grounds of affiliation with Illegal chib: l sne ocneet dx Tbe Salem District School board, after a series of conferences with parents, students, and other par ties concerned, and after very careful consideration and investi gation, hare definitely determined that the ' organization of high school students formed during .the summer, falls within the type of organisation banned by the state lawr-of Oregon, which organiza tions school boards art charged with the responsibility to sup press. In the light of this decision, it becomes Impossible for the school board r to permit the continuance of any of the students involved in this organisation in the Salem Public schools for the balance of the school year. This Is test cr imination has sought to pattern Itself after a Portland club, be lieving thereby that it could evade 'the legal ban. The Salem School board feels that the law Is very clear in its charge to the school board to suppress any such organ liations. The Salem School board. over a period of years, has kept constant pressure on such organ rations and are determined that any student wishing to have the privilege of education through the Salem schools must definitely make their choice between such organizations and the school. The board is sorry to be compelled to use such drastic measures, but the insistence of such organiza tions to evade or disregard the law, and. the oft-repeated policy of the Salem schools, makes neces sary such drastic action. The board wish to be very ) dearly understood by the public that it becomes the responsibility of students and parents to see to It that they or their children do not become so involved or so in- ; i volve others. The board wish to : request either parents or students -who may at any time consider the organization of any group about which there can be any doubt of its legal status, to Immediately confer with the high school prin cipal and have the matter cleared ' before any organization is begun. The board feels that to be less drastic would encourage other groups to spring up and involve more and more students in such Illegal organizations in the future.

Pearson Tells CVA Benefits At Lions Meet The proposed Columbia valley authority will not constitute a "super-state" because it will "be creature of congress," state Treasurer i Walter Pearson said Wednesday; "CVA win benefit the larmer, business man, ! labor and state," said Pearson speaking at the noon luncheon meeting of the Holly wood Lions club in the Lion's den. Construction of 25 dams in the Columbia river valley and co ordinated development of north west natural resources are includ ed in CVA. said Pearson, f No powers would be granted CVA, stateo Pearson, which are not already claimed by army en gineers, the reclamation bureau or the Bonneville power agency, tne three groups now involved in de veloping the Columbia ! river valley. Utility firms are attempting to make the CVA question a "battle between public and j private power. Pearson said he "hates to see CVA become a I political football," although, he predicted it would play a major part in coming political campaigns. Because; the Columbia river valley extends over a number of northwest states, a federal agency ts needed to control development of the river, he said. Benefits of such an authority, he said, would include power, irrigation, sou conservation, new industries, more jobs, reduction of taxes, cheaper power and freight rates and cre ation of new wealth.
