AN EDUCATIONAL CRISIS OU know well that it would be a hard task these days to 4F1 support a family of 10 on an income fixed five years ago to care for the needs of a family of four. The added needs of the enlarged family plus the decerased purchasing power of money would make a problem that would keep father and mother very busy. The president of the University of Oregon asserts that just such a problem as this confronts the university officials and the officials at the Oregon Agricultural College. The atendance at those schools is more than double what it was several years ago when the present millage allowance was made. But the millage ' tax produces no more money than formerly and a dollar bus j but half what it did before the war. '. The result is that living quarters are unobtainable, faculty ; members are underpaid and overworked, recitation rooms if- tended to accommodate 50 students are taking care of as many as 150 and the schools face the necessity of getting more money , or being obliged to shut their doors against many who desire ; collegiate training and are entitled to get it. It is estimated that I 1000 applicants will have to be turned away next fall unless! relief can be obtained. Whatever else the people do on May 20 they should vote for the enlarged millage tax for the colleges and for the two mill tax for elementary education. The last named bill is intended pri marily to readjust common school taxation and is in reality not a measure for increased taxation. In the most populous and hard pressed districts it will mean actual relief rather than an increased tax burden. . If you are a true friend of education study the bills to be voted upon at the primary election and prepare to assert your self. The situation is serious and it is no overstatement to say that the school family has gotten close to the ragged edge. WRIGLEYS flavors like the pyramids of Egypt? Because they are long-lasting.

CHEW IT AFTER EVERY MEAL Sealed Ttehf- KePt Right WHAT ABOUT THAT SWITCH? Jjr HE Portland Oregonian seems to think the East Orego ilL nian may have trouble in supporting Senator Chamber lain while at the same time upholding the Wilson ad ministration. It is the privilege of the Portland paper to bor row all the trouble it wishes upon this score. It may keep it from thinking of its own plight in connection with the peace treaty. As an original supporter of the peace treaty and the league of nations, the Oregonian advised the ratification of the treaty and denounced Lodge's efforts to whittle the big stick of article 10 down to a "fragile switch." If the treaty was good last summer and fall it is still good. How can the Oregonian recon cile its present course with its attitude some months ago? If it believes in the treaty and the league why not support the president, who has all but given up its life in its behalf? Why assail him and condone the couTSje of the men who are trying to cut the heart out of the covenant? Why travel with those who paint the hero as a villian and invent excuses for the men who by thsir obstructive tactics are betraying the nation and the world? - WASHINGTON TIMBER W ALLA WALLaA.
