THE REGISTER-GD A RD, EUGENE, OREGON July si SPEAKER; TELLS OF LIFE IN AUSTRALIA IDEAL SUMMER CEREAL! Comment! on Australia, Hi people and custom!, and other phafes of life thra featured th program for the Eucene Kiwanis club meeting Monday noon. John F. Cramer, euperintendent of school at The Dalles, being the sneaker. Re spent some time in Aus tralia. Mr. Cramer kept the dub member! entertained for some time in hi! "play" on words as pronounced by Americans and by Australians. He spent some time, too, in discussing the food the seven meals a day, and tea that stands the teit for goodness on whether the spoon float! or bendi. Despite the surface differences, the Americans and Australisns hart much in common and are alike and kindred in many respects, Mr. Cramer com mented. The people there are friendly and they are very much interested in America in fact they are not always aold on the "buy British" program, be commented. Mr. Cramer tried to have his list eners grasp the picture of this islsnd. as large as the United States minus Alasks, with lefts population than the city of New York, trying to main tain a white man'a country with one billion colored people in the nearby countries surrounding it. That main tenance of a white man'a country is a big thing to Australians, the spesk ers stated. Emigration Discussed The speaker discussed for some time tbe emigration system there. They get the same results as Amer ica, without hurting the prestige or feelings of other races," he ssid. Aus tralia informs the world every one is eligible so long aa he will not be a charge of tbe country and so long ss he is not illiterate, he pointed out, going on then to explain the entrance examination system by which the Australians can be very selective. If tbey wsnt some people, and not others, they hare many ways of "fix ing'' that examination, he aald in humorous way. Aa illustration, a Rus sian communist said ha could apeak 18 European languages; but the ex amination brought forth old Gaelic which he couldn't read. Another illus tration concerned an European who said ha knew six or seven of the Eu ropesn languagea but bin examina tion came in Turkish, so he wsa "il literate" since lie could not do It In that language. Austrsliana resent being called so cialist. They point out they have atate socialism, which la different. The speaker then discussed the post fflce, telephone, and telegraph sys tem nsed there. School Set-Up Explained The school aystem waa explained la some detail by Mr. Cramer. They have the state nnlt entirely In Aui- tralla and the teachera are all In civil service. The nearest thing in Amer let compared to this system Is West Point. Mr. Crsmer said. The teach era srs selected and appointed on the basis of how many teachera the state will need four years hence; aent to teachers college with their expenses ana allowance money paid, tben take ' the examination for appointment to practically lifetime Jobs. "It Is an economical and efficient system. While I am not earing it n the best thing; we shsll have to admit Australia his solved a problem wa are facing In education," be cos . -nted. pointing out there la no rjnemolov ment for teachera there, because there la no surplus of teachers; while cost bsa been brought way down and the efficiency greatly Increased. Gueits at the luncheon included Jay H. Upton of Bend; H. G. Nelion, E. W. Dsy, both of Aitorla; J. C. Vandervert, Bend; and Major O. B. Tudor, who came recently from Manila, P. I. Major and Mra. Tudor and family are visiting Colonel and Mra. J. H. Tierney and will go north from Eugene. e- ' I'M K 1 I SALEM. Ore.. July 6. U Pi Claims .totaling 11.120.75 held by the atate .against the several countiea for care of non-violent insane were wiped off ! tbe state's books today by the board of control. The elaima were based i upon an arbitrary charge of $20 a ' month for the care of auch persons under a lt31 act of the legislature. Counties contended that the charge was excessive in thst it was more thsn ' the actual cost of tbe pstients to the atate. The board conceded the point and adjusted its charge on tbe basis of 115 month, as tbe actual per capita cost. The claims date back to March 4. 1934, when the ao-called "ward" fee bill waa amended to exempt counties from payment. Relatives and guard ians of non-violent inssne patienta are still required to pay for the care of their chargea when financially able to do so, an act of 1935 fixing tbe amount at 120 s month. An offer of Marion county to pay 6,156.13 of the claim held by the atate was approved with tbe under atanding that a balance of $6,135.50 be "held in abeyance." Marion county officials claimed that many of the pat- , ients committed to the state hospital from that county are actually reai denta of other counties. Claima wiped out ranged from $44.- ! 572.9S against Multnomah county toj '. aa low as $40 in the case of Josephine Shrsddsd Wheat, s delicious cereal preparation shown above, will ; county.
