FEDERAL AID FOR SCHOOLS
In the Oregon legislature, the enactment of an augmented
plan of state aid for public schools is apparently near. We
have discussed such plans before now. We would now like
to discuss a plan for federal ajd for schools which has been
placed before the national congress.
In some respects this plan is similar to the state plan, for
where the state plan would aid school districts, the federal
plan would aid states. Each would get the money from the
general fund, which means that almost any sort of tax might
eventually contribute to the expense. Neither program of as
sistance would take into consideration the amount of money
that taxpayers of a district had
or that taxpayers of the state naJ paid into tne ienerai treas
ure The state would distribute its largess on the basis of
child population; the federal
Diessmgn on stales jzi which icmLivui,y mouiin-icui. (iivvwiyii
had been made for education. There would be drought for
those states where conditions were relatively good.
Not that the drought would be apparent. It would not be
discerned at all. It would merely seem to the delighted edu
cators that more money was coming their way. No indication
that this money was costing anyone anything or at least no
indication that the money was costing the recipients any
thing. The illusion is a common one when disbursements are
made from pooled resources.
But here is the way it would actually work. There would
be $300,000,000 to distribute. Of this, Oregon would receive I
$1,891,478. Toward the $300,000,000, Oregon taxpayers would
contribute $3,24Z,uou.
YeB, Oregon would be one of the donor states. You see,
conditions are not so bad in Oregon after all. Our Pacific coast
states are three of the 17 which would pay more than they
would receive. Maybe it would be better for Oregon to run
its own affairs. By the same token, maybe it would be better
for tho districts of Oregon to run their own affairs.
The federal measures to which we have referred are
S. 181 and H.R. 1296. Like proposals have been before the
national legislature in its past
VERIFY YOUR QUOTATIONS
Every so often we find it necessary to chide our old
friend in Portland, the Oregonian, for carelessness in quoting
verse. We do so regretfully and only because we think it
unfortunate that its errors should be given currency with
out correction. We are hopeful, too, that in time the paper will
cease leaning on the weak reed of memory when it comes to
using a quotation. .
It was in the Monday paper that the lutest error was dis
covered and it is true that it is but a minor error. However,
when one quotes he is supposed to quote spelling, punctua
tion and every word as the author hud it. Ttys, our friend, in
its Monday use of that Gelett Burgess rhyme failed to do.
We shall not repeat the lines as the Oregonian had them
but offer simply what Burgess wrote, thus :
My P'eet they haul me 'round the House;
They hoist me up the Stairs;
I only have to steer them and
They ride me everywheres.

-THE
Bay City Parley
Senators' Topic
Washington. March 13 IP
Four freshman senators predicted
last night that machinery set up
by the coming United Nations
conference In San Francisco
would go a long way toward solv
ing the International problems of
the postwar worm.
Tho speakers two republicans
and two democrats told a United
Nations forum that the decisions
made In San Francisco for the
United States would be strictly
non-partisan.
Sen. J. William Fulbright, D.,
Ark., hailed the coming confer
ence but warned that "the making
of peace does not consist merely
of a beautifully drafted constitu
tion or a magic formula.
"ft is a continuing process that
must go on from day to day, year
to year so long as civilisation snau
last," he declared.
ClutrgeK iMmlo
Sen. Br(en McMahon, D., Conn.,
said isolationists and nationalists
were "playing on the old hatreds
of our allies, Russia and England"
in an effort to defeat efforts at
international cooperation.
"These termites, these irrespon
sible undermlners of the structure
of world peace . . . are danger
ous because they preach the doc
trines of division and hatred, be
cause they deny the brotherhood
of man, deadly and vicious be
cause they preach the inevitability
of another and final world con
flagration."
Predicting that "thev" would
fail "this time," McMahon urged
that the San Francisco confer
ence "clearly slate that God is the
source of all law, and that the law
of nations which is basic in all
international relations has its
roots in God's moral law."
Kallonslull Sxaks
Sen. Leveret t Saltonstall, R.,
Mass., said machinery constructed
at San Francisco would help to
solve postwar international prob
lems. He said America wants
homes, jobs and education, Rus
sia wants boundary security and
France wants to be sure Ruhr in
dustries are not used to rearm
Germany.
Sen. H. Alexander Smith, R.,
N. J., criticized the failure of the
U. S. to participate in settlement
of the Polish boundary dispute
but praised the Yalta conference
as a "movement toward combined
action of the three groat powers
not as world rulers but as trustees
of world organization."
Assistant Secretary of State
Archibald MacLeish, presiding
over the forum, said "ours Is the
first generation with the courage
and boldness to think in terms of
the world."

Whenever Jozef t-lsnor stopped
in ut Pleyel et Cle it was always
on the pretext of obtaining Freu-

One uay a familiar voice greeted
him. "Professor Eisner! how are
you?"
It was Franz Liszt.
" Ah, Maestro. Fine fine,
thank you."
They shook hands; Liszt warm
ly, Eisner bravely. -.
"The teaching, Professor? How

Jozef Eisner put on a bold

cover his embarrassment. "Well, I
I enjoyed meeting you"
Liszt held him. "You haven't ,
seen him for a long time?"
Jozef Eisner's chin' went un.
"True quite true, Maestro. But1
Monsieur Pleyel keeps me inform- j
cd.'
Franz Liszt took that statement
for what it seemed to be worth,
which was not much. "You know,
then, that Frederic is not well?"
Jozef Eisner knew nothing of
the kind but his pride would not
let him admit his ignorance. He
said, lightly: "There's no danger.
Is there?"
Franz Liszt did not answer.
" Well, you agree, don't you?"
"Yes." Liszt bowed his head. "I
agree, certainly."
"Then what could be wrong?
Nothing! Frederic Is busy, Maes
tro. So am I. We both have out
work." Jozef Eisner attempted a
smile. "Well, Monsieur-"
Franz Liszt said earnestly:
"When he plays occasionally I
mean In some salon wouldn't
you care to hear him?"
" Salon, Maestro?" Jozef Eis
ner shook his head. "No really,
salons are not in my circles"
"Nevertheless, Professor, I shall
see that you are invited "
"Thank you Just the same.
Well, good day. Monsieur Liszt."
Liszt called after him in a jocu
lar tone: "Remember, Professor
each time I shall see you have
the invitation " t
"No No, I'm afraid I
wouldn't know what to do with
it."
It was Louis Plevel who
brought the news to Nohant. A re-
- """! uprising had jus, been
suppressed,
deoi'ge read the paper in si
lence. "A thousand miles from
Paris," she said lightly. "I doubt
very much it will disturb him."
Frederic came into the room.
He was thin. I lis face was whiter
than ever, his movements more
perky.
"I'm late for our appointment,
Louis. You will forgive me."
Pleyel pretended to be gay. lie
forgave Frederic, of course. Then
he glanced at tleorgo who was un
obtrusively folding the paper to
keep It from Frederic's sight.
"How do you feel this morning,
Frederic?" Ceorge asked.
Frederic didn't answer directly.
"Truthfully, Louis, 1 am not ex
actly in a mood for business." His
mind seemed to be wandering. "If
it's nothing Important, Louis --"
"Does Louis ever have anvthing
important, darling?"
Monsieur Pleyel frowned.
-He brings the same old story.

" well, Louis, you have the

plcyel's collar could not pos
sibly be loosened more than it
was already, or Louis Pleyel
would have loosened it more.
"Naturally, Freaenc, I realize.'
His woras were honeyed. Uhey
nad never been more sweet. "et

Frederic suddenly lost patience,
He stamped the lloor as a child

He strode from the room.
George sidled to her desk. She

" Really, Louis," she said, rais

of Poland would disturb him very
much. I don't think it would dis

nounced by Chiel bpecialist Paul
Connet, recruiter in cnarge of the
Central Oregon navy recruiting
station, Henu, loiiowing word
from Lt. Omar. Jonn F. Biehler,
officer in charge ot the Portland
headquarters.
Enlistments in this recruitment
branch surpassed any other single
month's performance back to
March of last year, and was one
ot the best months since R.T. pro
curement began nearly tnree
years ago.
The snowing comes at a time
when radio tecnmcian candidates
are vitally needed in the navy's
long-range training program, and
thousands more win have to be
forthcoming if the program Is to
continue at top speed.
"You recruiters are doing ex
cellent work in this urgent task,"
Comdr. Biehler notified the local
navy representative, "but you
could not get such fine results
without the whole-hearted co-operation
you are receiving from
civilians.
"The job is too big for any one
group to accomplish it is so im
portant that it merits the efforts
of everyone, serviceman or civil
ian, on the home front. We can
definitely help to shorten the war
by getting these youths into
training classes now, and I am
confident that Oregon will uphold
its reputation as a leader in vol
unteer activities by providing the
necessary material."
