Where the "just mlddlin' ' fellows are campin' today!
Where there's none that's too rich, and none that's too poor
To have his own number just over the door;
That's where we'll stand!
But there's mighty pood people In Poverty Iand!

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.

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?

The beavers have destroyed thou
sands of dollars worth of fruit trees
and rendered many acres of land use
less. Efforts to obtain relief thus far
have proved unsuccessful. The state
law protects the animals and as they
do not come within the preditory ani
mal law. the federal officials have
been unable to do anything. Dr. A. K.
Fisher of Washington, D. C, chief of
the biological service rodent control
bureau of the department of agricul
ture, has been studying the situation
and it l hoped by the farmers that
some solution of the problem may be
worked out.
