WHITE ' AP Foreign Affairs Analyst Indonesia is a bright spot today on an otherwise gloomy world pic ture, for three reasons. Until recently this budding re public was racked with rebellion against the returning Dutch. More than 70 million people lived under the threat of prolonged chaos and poverty. Today the Indonesians are for mally on their way toward inde pendence within an agreed frame work of the Dutch commonwealth. The American State Department recognizes this. There is no fight ing of consequence.

Sources of School Revenue Shown for Eugene District (See Tare 1 Story) " Questions and answers below show sources of income for the Eugene schools in addition to rev enue from district taxes. Q How much money did the Eugene school district receive this year from the state? A It received a total of $243.- 000. made ud of $202,000 from the state school support fund and $41 000 from the elementary school fund. Q How much of this represent' ed a tax offset? A The $202,000 was a tax offset and represented about 10 mills which the district otherwise would have had to levy. Q How much state aid is an- Equ Excellent Washing ipment for Your Use!

(No Appointment Necessary) COX'S SELF SERVICE LAUNDRY 2nd & Polk and Indonesians Somehow, Indo nesian leaders have got their mili tary chieftains to stop , sniping long enough for reasoned talk to prevail. The Dutch, despite strong conservative and military opposi tion, have recognized with realism that they cannot restore colonial- ! ism on the old basis and that half ! a loaf in those rich islands is bet ; ter than none. The second reason is that the : world-wide and extra-national i impulse to trade cannot be kept j away from a rich trading area like : the Indies. In this pressure an I American Liberty ship, the Martin Behrman, played an important part. It provided a test case which dramatized the situation and en abled the Dutch and Indonesians to reach agreements with Amer. ican and British prompting which will reopen the Indies to trade. No Red Talk The third reason is that the question of Communistic influence behind the Indonesian nationalist movement never has been serious ly raised. It never has confused the issue in Indonesia, as it cer tainly, has done in French Indo china, where Viet-Nam-French affairs still are little more than a bloody deadlock, 'This absence of the Communist bugaboo is without doubt one of the basic explanations for the American State Department's readiness to lend its mediative services at times and to recognize the new Indonesian republic once agreement has been reached with the Dutch. Both Dutch and Indonesian lead ers realize they have iust beeun to solve their many problems in detail, so they expect some trou ble. However, each knows that neither can get along without the other, for a while at least . It's downright encouraging,, and the Dutch and Indonesians may take justifiable pride in leading the way out of the dark past and chaotic present of colonialism to ward something better. Q How much of this, if any, re presents a tax offset? A None. Q How does It happen that the Hospital Attendant Job Open with Roseburg VA Examination for permanent pro bational appointment to the posi tion of hospital attendant in the Veterans Administration at Rose burg was announced Monday by the Federal Civil Service Com mission; . .

Eugene Lie. 5-TJ3, Jke CHURCHES OF CHRIST JLu uou THE BIBLE RECORDS THREE DISTINCT DISPENSATIONS. OR AGES IN THE WORLD! The first is known as the Patriarchal (Age of the Fathers) when God spoke "in divers manners" unto the Fathers (Heb. 1:1) and this age continued including all nations of men until the giv ing of the Law of Moses in 1491 B.C. or for 2500 years. Then the second period is known as the Jewish Dispensation during which time the Israelites lived under the law given at Sinai the law of Moses. This age lasted nearly 1500 years. The third dispensation is the Christian Age and the religious law that should govern all peoples is the gospel of Christ, or the teachings of the New Testament. The reason that we do not keep the Sabbath Is that it was a Jewish law and that law wag done away in Christ (Col. 2:14). We do not burn incense nor use instrumental music In worship, for those things were used only in the Jewish worship, which came to an end at the Cross (Eph. 2:14). All that we teach or practice today either in worship, or In Christian living must be learned from the New Testament. Any other source would not be the correct authority. The following Churches of Christ In this community welcome yen to attend all of their service 494 10th Are.

Work In manuscript form in cludes that by Walter Piston, Ste vens, Dahl, Helm, Donald Fuller and Elston. Gun-Jumpers Told Women Shun Beards For the benefit of those eager- beaver whisker growers who have been jumping the gun on the pageant this year, the following are a few statistics handed in by William Singer, the pride of Flor ence's bearded gentry. "The part of the face you shave Is 48 inches square, with 25,000 whiskers which grow lrlOOth of an inch every 24 hours. Only one man in seven shaves daily. A man who does not shave daily is greatly handicapped in winning the affectionate regard of the op posite sex. Or so claim our Horses and Women experts. 'They say a smoothly-shaven face is a distinct advantage to a man making love to a bachelorette or bestowing affectionate oscula tion on his matrimonial mate. . "History tells that before Mark Antony called on Cleopatra he shaved ten times over. Evidently the highway poet is also in agree ment with our H and W depart ment as to a smooth shave. This is i -dicated by the followig im mortal ilnes: 'Grandpa's beard was stiff and coarse, That's what caused his fifth divorce." " Family Joins Doctor Now in San Francisco Mrs. H. G. Schluter and her two children, Hans and Karyn, joined her husband, Dr. H. B. Schluter, in San Francisco last week where the doctor set up his practice April 1 at Mary's Help Hospital. The fam ily is residing temporarily in South San Francisco. They had been living at the home of Mrs. Schluter's parents, Dr. and Mrs. V. L.

Adv. district will receive about $146,000 more in state aid and will have no tax offset? A The basic school support fnnri from which almost all the money will come is hot a tax offset. The state school support .limu, from which the district received $202,000 this year, was a tax offset, but this fund if to be superseded by the new basic school support fund. - Q Why Is It that, although there will be an increase in state aid, the property tax rale must go up also? A The district will receive a net increase of about $146,000 in state aid but added costs and necessary expansion will require even more money than that. Ex penses have increased for supplies, salaries have gone up and addi tional rooms and teachers must be provided for an estimated 300 to 400 additional children who will enter school next year. About $25,- 000 has been placed m the budget, as required by law, for prior serv ice of employes under the Public Employes Retirement Act, which applies to all school districts. Q Will the district have any income in addition to district taxes and state aid? A Yes. There will be about $73,000 from the county school tax, about $32,000 from elementary and high school tuition, about $12,000 from the University of Oregon as its share of teaching costs at Uni versity High School, and about $12,000 from rentals. Total income, aside from district taxes, will be $579,278. Q What is the total budget? A The total is $1,462,128. Total to be raised by district tax is $1, 012,849. This figure includes $320, 400 within the 6 per cent limit, $454,827 which the taxpayers are asked, to vote outside the 6 per cent, $137,621 already voted for construction bonds and interest, and $100,000 already voted 'for high school construction.
