Expansion of State
Education Colleges
By PAUL W. HARVEY JR.
Associated Press Writer -
- Legislation expanding Oregon's colleges of education into full
liberal arts colleges and to extend training of teacners was ap
proved Saturday by the Senate and sent to Gov. Paul L. Patterson.
The Senate voted 19 to 11 for the bill to add high school
teacher training and liberal arts courses at the three colleges of
education at Monmouth, Ashland and La Grande. This measure

I spent Thursday and Friday in
Seattle, attending on the first night
the annual meeting of the regional
branch of the American Associa
tion for United Nations, and on the
second night the Washington Press
Institute.
The AAUN in Seattle is exceed
lngly active, doing a remarkable
work on a very restricted budget,
of keeping the public informed on
the program of United Nations,
conducting numerous public and
student educational programs, and
combatting some of the hostile
propaganda against United Nations.
We should have a chapter of the or
ganization in Oregon; and I hope
we may have before long.
I found at the Press Institute
only a bare half-dozen who at
tended during the period 1915-25
when I was a Washington publish
er. Many former friends have pass
ed on: some have retired. But a
bright new group of editor-publish
ers have taken over; and I have no
doubt they are putting out better
papers than we did in the alleged
good Wd days..
I did have a special privilege in
getting to visit with a man who
has just returned from a trip
around the world. It wasn't la
sight-seeing trip, but a business
trip, by one who has made the
ckeuHkfmated-boj9cniM of
the nature of 1m business kp in
touch with foreign condition.
He reported that Japan present
ly is being sustained pretty much
by the spending of the U. S. gov
ernment and its military personnel
in Japan. This offsets the loss of
Japan's trade with9 China. They
hope, if peace comes in Korea, to
resume trading with the continent,
obtaining from Manchuria raw
materials and . selling the Chinese
manufac- '. '

Supporters of the uua argued

vide low-cost state-controlled edu
cation in communities that don't
have it now.
Disadvantages Cited
But the opponents denied the
bills would result in more teach
ers. They said the program would
force several of Oregon's 10 pri
vate colleges to close their doors
because the state can't support
10 private and six state colleges.
Both- houses put on a big rush
Saturday to clean up its work,
hoping to adjourn the session by
Tuesday.
The House approved the eight
million dollar program of new
institution and college buildings,

will vote on it Monday.

as to whether the press and radio

names of persons or firms who
have their income taxes written
off by the State Tax Commission
as uncollectible were passed by
the Senate by 17-13 margins.
These bills, as originally passed
by the House, would have made
public all income tax compro
mises of more than S500.

ference committee Saturday. The
House refused to accept the Sen

the salary question will be made

Taxes to
Increase
Twenty-one more Jeachers,
salary boosts for all employes
and first payments on $3V mil
lion in bonds will boost Salem
School ' District's tax levy to a
record 48.1 nulls this year. The
11 -mill tax increase on a $3,839,
808 budget was announced Sat
urday by Superintendent Walter
E. Snyder. .
With final action of the bud
get committee ' due Tuesday
night the budget will go before
voters of the district on Friday,
May 15, for approval of the
S819.769 tax outside the 6 per
cent increase limitation. The to
tal levy would be $2,192,340, a
boost of $517,000 from the cur
rent year's. .
Receipts are estimated at $1,
263,475, up only $87,775 from
this year's. These will .include
more state basic school support
funds, due to higher enrollment
- Snyder' said the climb in costs
is due to the following items:
Teaching Staff An estimate
of at least 498 more pupils next
fail than last means a "conserva
tive" requirement of at least 21
additional teachers. This is the
greatest boost in any single year
in history in number of teachers,
making the total 390.
All but two of the teachers
win be in the elementary grades.
Next year's enrollment - is ex
pected to include 1,168 first
graders, compared to the 670
present sixth graders who will
be leaving the elementary class
rooms. Salary Teachers will' get
$240 per year more, and all
other employes will get com
parable raises of one step on the
pay scale. Costing a total of $81,
2X9, this will place the minimum
pay for teachers at $3,090 per
year, or $3,450 for a beginning
teacher with a bachelor's degree.
Snyder said this. puts Salem on
an average level for salaries over
Oregon.
This , jrear . the newly hired
teachers also . wiU get an in

ing difficulty of securing trained

mills.' The boost is entirely due
to the high school issue, of which
million have been sold and
another $2 million win be sold
in the fall. None of this was in
cluded in the 1852-53 budget so
it wiU hit the tax rolls aU at
once. Otherwise the district is
