RECORD BREAKER IX
Returning from Portland where he
attended the meeting of the commis
sion of nine named to consider af
fairs of the U. of O. and O. A. C,
Dr. C. J. Smith confirms published
reports of the action taken by the
committee.
With but one or two members of
the committee favorable to the plan
for consolidating the two schools the
ci-mmlsslon virtually stands opposed
I the scheme and is now considering
the question of how to finance the
schools on a mlllage basis and save
them from trouble In the future. It
U the impression of Dr. Smith that
the commission will adopt the sug
ccstion made Saturday by a Joint
committee from the two boards of re
gents and initiative a measure provld
ing support for the two schools, seven
tenths of a mill being asked this am
ount to be divided about the schools
on a baslst of four parts to O. A. C.
and three parts to the university. Af
ter the first year this basis may De
changed by action of the state board
consisting of the governor, secretary
of state and state treasurer.
At the commission meeting Satur-
Aav J ii.l ce R. S. Bean and J. K.
Weatherford. presidents respectively
Of the IWO DOaros OI regents n
named to draft the proposed Initiative
measure. The commission is to meet
in Portland during the Rose show and
further consider the matter.
Judge Bean, who is here today
holdlne court, stated at noon that he
had prepared a draft of the measure
had forwarded It to Weatherford.
In an interview he expressed the be
lief that there would be but little op
position to the measure because of its
manifest iustness. "It will take tne
twn schools out of politics" he stated.
and enable them to lay tneir plans
for work with some certainty of be
ing able to accomplish what they
undertake without interruption, ftow
thev can only look two years ahead
and are then confronted with the ser
ious problem of securing adequate
funds from the legislature for another
two years. The adoption of a mlllage
tax will place both institutions on
a stable basis and enable them to pur
sue their work In security."
Asked regarding the sentiment for
consolidating the two institutions.
Judge Bean declared he had found
practically no sentiment for such a
move over the state but stated that
the commission now appointed w-111
make an exhaustive investigation to
determine the advantages and disad
vantages of consolidation and until Its
report has been submitted, the people
would have no accurate or detailed
information upon which to base their
Judgment.
'Pprsonnllv " ha aM "T nm rpno-
lutely opposed to any such move for
the reason that the efficiency of both
institutions would be Impaired by con
solidation. I believe the Industrial
departments would suffer the most
and. inasmuch as they are getting
such splendid remits now. such an
effect would hn denlorahle. Aside
from the question of the expediency
of such a measure, I believe it wouia
be Impracticable. The state has in-

INDIANS ARE NOT DYING OUT.
Berkeley, Cal. There are as many
Indians in the United States as there
were In the same territory in Colum
bus' time, declared Dr. Thomas Wa
terman, instructor in anthropology
In the University of California. Dr.
Waterman has made a special study
ot the American Indian, especially
the western tribes. He lays particu
lar claim to DODUlar fame for his dis
covery if Ishi. the last of an exnlrlnir
race in northern Calofirnla.
Dr. Waterman's assertion comes as
a considerable Jolt to the current
statement, which pictures the red
man as a tragic figure, expatriated
and fast vanishing from his native
plains and woods.
"As a matter of fact there were
not nearly as many Indians in North
America when it was discovered as
Is generally believed," continued Dr.
Waterman. "Recent discoveries have
led Rclentlsta tn rnnrlniln that there
but a scarce quarter of a million east
of the Sierras and hardly 200,000 in
California.
"The annals of the Lewis and Clark
expedition are the basis for the idea
that the United States swarmed with
Indians. This expedition, however,
merely traversed the river, and as it
was on the river banks that all the
Indian settlements were located, the
explorers were misled as to the exis
tence of inland towns. In Columbus'
time there was but one Indian to
every twenty square miles.
