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.

this matter. Our sons have been

even though Vr. Carleton has as
sured some -of the boys .they would

pleted bv - the i group of 19 boys,
who with their mothers, volun
tarily sent a representative to Mr.

suppress an information concern

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.
