A Chinese man who could speak and write nu meroua European lunguiigcs found his examination iu Turkish. , The school system iu Australia was fnutber featuru discussed by the speaker. Instead of souio liJUO school district that Oregon ns only one state her has, Auatruliu, as large as this whole country, la divided into but six states, eucb with its own school district, hence only six districts for the eutiro nation. The teaching pro fession there is on a ban is similar to V.what appointments to West I'oiut are W United States, be said as a compar ison. Special studies sru made and officials find out ust how many tench ere they need four yearn hence. There fore, they admit only that number to tbeir teachers college, careful selec tion being made following strict exinu iuatlom. The few thua selected ore provided with trnining at the teachers . college, sll expenses, even spending money, provided. They then receive tbeir appointments, The, result is there is never any surplus of teach ers and no unemployment among them. 1 There points stand out In this sys tem, Mr. Cramer saM. First, Aiinlntl ians claimf they have aolved the prob lem facing America by linvi'nir fewer nd larger units, state unit. The ntnte takes charge of the system and no special tuxes are levied for school purposes. Schools are run more efficiently through coutrol of the u umber goiug into tcucbing, through unified and muss buying and building of supplies and structures, costs arc held down, and, on the average, teachers receive if'MMi more yeurly thou in the United Slates. Secondly, the Australians have developed their rurul school to the same point of efficiency and influence they bare for their city schools. Thirty, Auslrulia has develop a sys tem of correxjtondencc teaching from the first grade up through the univer sity for isolated children those out in the sheep country, or at lighthouses or in missionary fields; and the achievement from this system i re markable, the speaker pointed uut. Preceding these comments, Mr. Cramer entertained the club with "piny" on words as pronounced in Australia and as pronounced In Amer ica; as well hh with humorous com ments on their tea and coffee and other food items vs. these articles in the United States. There are only surface difference fundamentally, when yuu get under neath, Australia snd America have many likenesses in common, tbc speaker stated.

(CONTINUED FROM FAfiE I) Fie said that the Townseod movement was not a political movement and the members were not onited behind any preaidential candidate. They would support men for congress who would work for the Townsead plan. He labeled It a recovery plan not just a 'pension. 1 He estimated that there are 11,000,000 unemployed and the same number of people over 60 yeara of age who would be eligible for the pension. By retiring the aged the rest couM be employed. The plan Involved a transaction tax, which dif fered from a sales tax in that it taxed bonds and other transaetions missed by the sales tax. Mrs. Jackson said "yon can judge a party platform better aometimea by what they leave out than by what they Bay." She said Theodore Roose velt began truBt-bustlng, but that trusts did not die because they are the natural development of the ma chine age and competition. The only solution is to hare the monopoly publicly owned and controlled. She advocated higher income taxes and in heritance taxes and elimination of the causes of war. "Let the corporation be owned by the people and run for their benefit instead of for the prof its of the few," waa her challenge. Mr, Rodman dealt chiefly with what be considered the faults and failures of the present administration. He said that half of the world's unem ployed are in the U. S. A. and that there are slightly more unemployed today, according to American Federa tion of Labor figure than In 1032. Business confidence" has been lacking due to the acts of the administration, hence little capital Is being invested in new enterprises less than in 1032. He said the constitution was the work of the people and could be amended by the people if they desired. He ac cused the administration of attempt ing to disregard the constitution. He said the republican party'a method of keeping out of war la to keep out of the leaguo of nations, world court nnd other conferences. "We have never lost a war. nor won a confer ence," he Bald. "If we go to confer ence with Europe they outsmart us in craftiness. If It cornea to the give and take of a conference, we have half the world s wealth; we give and they take." . A helpful part of the program "was the music led by R. Q. Dykestra and some of the members of the I. O. O. F. band. George 0. Berreman, county director of adult education, acted as chairman. 51511 AMOUNT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) property, merely taking ortr the man agement after it waa finished, conse quently it seems Illogical to place a debt for the work on the board. 4 The board wished to cooperate fully with the council in reaching an equitable adjustment of the question. Base oa nepan The city's claim is based on the re port of the state public utilities com mission, made in 1917 at the request of the water board, the council, cham ber of commerce. Fortnightly club and the Automobile club, requesting a survey of the city water and light utilities. This report points to the warrants totaling 157,070.93 which the city Is sued 'to pay costs of the construction of the plant at Walterville, recom mending the city receive credit for this contribution. As waa brought out in discussion at the council meet ing, the city originally authorised a bond issue of $300,000 to set up a gravity water system for the city. The sum of $140,000 waa spent In acquir ing the properties of the old private utility, and with tho remainder the city set out to complete its system. In the process Of construction, It was found that a gravity system would not work, with the result it was de cided to install a pumping syatem, necessitating the construction of a power plant to get power to operate the pumps. Thus the Walterville plant originally waa conceived aa a unit of the water syatem and not as an electric utility. Money Sought In building the plant, however, the remaining $160,000 proved inadequate so additional money was sought It was then the city Issued the warrants to complete the work. The present case hinges on the council's and board's conception of this letter finsncing. The council feels the warrants were in tbc same cate' gory as the original bond issue, in otber words, it was just the ssme as though bonds' totaling $3ST,070t bad been issued, rather than the issue of $300,000. since the additional money was needed to complete the work. The bosrd takes the position this additional fund represents the city's stock in the utilities, that at the time the original action was taken the council had no intention of seek ing a refund of the money from earn ings of the board; that had they done so, the matter would hare been taken up and settled long-ngo. Sat Joist Meeting After bearing statements outlining the city's position and the board's statement, it was decided that sn other joint meeting would be held on Aug. 24 if the board can complete its investigation by that time. Members of the board contended they ehould not be rushed in msklng their investi gation as they needed time to do the work thoroughly. Pending that in vestigation, they preferred to make no commitment oa policy. The resignation of Dean Wayne Morse, of the university law school, aa a member of the city civil service commission, was accepted by the coun cil, but no action on appointing his successor waa taken, uwncumsn Ijimb, president of the council, aaid the committee had been unable to agree on the name of a man for the commission. It is understood a labor member ia being sought. Upon petition from the I. O. O. F. hand, the council granted permission to broadcast a convert over a loud apesker from the top of Skinner Butte. The permission waa given with the reservation that It complaiuts were made, it would he revoked. Other business of the council: W. O. Swsn given permission to construct an alley off University street; H. B. Tount refused permission to instsll curb service at the Del Rey cafe; pri vate aewer operating in the Patterson and Twelfth avenue area taken over; Investigation of fire basard at the used car lot at 189 West Broadway turned over to chief of police; Obak Wallace's request for return of $5 wine license application fee referred to police committee; John C. Jobnke requeat for transferral of beer license granted. Mrs. Drake Returns From Big Convention Mrs. Bertha A. Drake, delegate from Townsend club No. 15 of l i ten to the national convention at Cleveland, returned home Mon day. "The convention was the great est political gathering ever held in the united States, she declar ed.
