TEST OF SINCERITY
The Oresron education association is on the spot, according
to J. T. Marry executive secretary or the state federation 01
labor, and we are inclined to agree with him. The spot, which
ne designated wis weeK in nis report at tuamatn raws w
the annual convention of the Oregon federation, is one wmcn
the education association prepared. The association has until
November, 1952 to remove itself therefrom.'
All this has to do with the tact that in i5U the education
'association stepped out for the second time to sponsor and
put over legislation requiring huge annual state payments to
nnhlif arhnnl rliflfriris. These cnmmitmfinta. it in tn hp rpmem.
bered, are a prime factor in the approaching insolvency of
the Oregon treasury. They were urged and obtained on the
argument that they 'were needed to assure the raising of
standards or common school education in tne state, ;
But there were other things than money needed and these
other things were detailed in the report of Dr. T. C. Holy,
eastern educator who was hired to conduct a survey and rec
ommend means of improving the education: system of the
state. For the most part Dr. Holy's recommendations were
enacted by the 1951 legislature. Most important among them
was one providing for reorganization and consolidation of
districts on the theory that small units are, Jn the main, more

This bill, too, was passed by the legislature but it has the
opposition of the' state grange which is behind a movement
to refer it to the people. With sufficient signers on the refer
endum petitions it will be at issue at the general election next
year. ' ''- ;:;;;:;:.-..' ;.

of dollars and the abstraction of school standards. Hua

SALES TAX DEVELOPMENTS ' .
. rhnnp who hflvp fliinnnprri aaIps t.nv- nrrmnnala An nnr. for.
ward in Oregon have done so because of their belief that a
sales tax . would lighten the burden of ad valorem taxes on
property. The state grange has been a consistent opponent
of these proposals but individual grange organizations here
and there throughout Oregon have seemed slowly to be com
ing around to a new stand and now, according to reports of
last week's convention of the state body, its attitude is chang
ing. Ait'-X V flv:;5-v:;::;-.,v; ,;;y ,..: .,.;.
: we say , this on the strength of the. news as given in Sat
urday's Oregonian. In this mention is made of "a rising sen
timent in some local' granges .for1 a sales- Itax." Mindful of
it.- : (ri 1 i i.1 .. I . . 1. . .

committee's field of study." It says, also, that "the Grange
cautiously opened the door a crack for possible reversal
a year hence of its traditional opposition to a general sales
tax.' V;;;v; :-;', .".
This suggestion of the possibility of an acceptance of the
sales tax in Oregon comes at a time when other states are
turning to this tax. Three new states have-been added to the

WASHINGTON COLUMN
v Pete Edaon
(NEA Weetilnaton Correwondeat)
Washlneton (NEA) One year
ahead of schedule, the marsnaii
plan for' European recovery Is
practically over. This is a little
recoenlzed fact. There should be
good propaganda value in it for
consumption twin t imuc
abroad. . But It is not being play
ed up.
What Is still more striking is
that the original goal of the Mar-
shall plan is being achieved at
nearlv 5 billion dollars less tnan
was originally estimated..
As of May 31, year and one
month before the scheduled exr
ilration date, allocations for the
7 Marshall plan countries total
$11.6 billion.
i The congress is being asked
to aDoropriate another $1.6 bil
lion for Marshall plan operations
during the coming year. But of
this sum. it is estimated that less
than 25 per cent not more than
$400 million will go directly for
civilian economic recovery pro
jects. -
This amount, plus 'the $11.6
billion already allocated, makes
the $12 billion which is properly
chargeable to the Marshall plan
as it was originally conceived.
The 5400 million aid requested
for next year will go. almost en
tirely to three countries western
Germany, Austria and Greece.
Western uermany and Austria
are of course war babies. The fact
that thev still have zones occu
pied by Russian armies has held
back their recovery. . ;
if peace treaties couia nave
been concluded with Austria and
Germany and new governments
recognized lor tnetr respectively
united territories, the recovery
story there might also be near a
conclusion. .
Greece, of course, was In the
midst of a full-scale cjyil war
when the Marshall plan began
operations. Greece was 18 months
behind the rest of Europe in get
ting on tne road to recovery.
in an honesty, it must be ad
mitted that Greece will require
even more, than another 18
months to catch up with the rest
of Europe.. The elements for a
self-sustaining economy - simply
are not there.
Great Britain officially with
drew from Marshall plan assis
tance last December. France,
Italy and the Low Countries could
withdraw-now. Denmark and
Norway are back on their feet.
aweaen and Switzerland, the neu
trals in both world wars, needed
assistance only to integrate their
economies with -the rest of Eu
rope. Portugal and Turkey could
get along. Trieste and Iceland,
the remaining two tiny areas- in
the ' Marshall plan organization,
are, of course, special problems,
not directly related to the larger
pr-ODiems 01 western Europe as a
wnoie.
Liquidation of the Marshall
nlan organization might therefore
De the Beginning now of one dis
turbing factor. That is the threat
tt soviet invasion and the. need
to assist western Europe In re
arming for its own defense.
That has changed the Marshall
plan .concept, it Is not just Ku
ropean recovery that is being
sougnt, lor turope has recovered.
miraculously. The Marshall plan's
new goal in Europe is, to quote
an economic cooperation adminis
tration statement:
"To make western Europe eco
nomically strong enough o sup
port the defense effort that is
necessary if it is to withstand
the threat of aggression."
"This is where the remaining
$1.2 billion of next year's Mar
shall Dlan request for $1-6 bil
lion is to be spent. The wheels
of western European industry
which the Marsnall plan spceaea
up for civilian production have to
be converted to production of
military equipment.
In this Deriod of its second post
war economic, readjustment, Eu
rope will require, lurtner assis
tance.: Since the Marshall plan
organization is already establish
ed as a going concern, it is only
logical that this further assistance
be administered by this agency.
. How lone this further economic
assistance will be. needed by Eu
rope, no one can yet say. But a
fair guess ,is that the program
should be concluded when the
U. S. defense mobilization is con
cluded, by the end of 1953. And
the hope is that by then both
Europe and America can again
have guns and butter too. 1 . ;
