PAGE EIGHT THE CAPITAL. JOURNAL. SALEM, OREGON The great danger of the pres ent time is that we are trying to do loo many things through our government," said Herbert Gor don, state representative from Multnomah county, la so address before the Salem chamber of commerce Monday. Mr. Gordon Is chairman of the house ways and means comm. alee, and le serv ing his fifth term as a member of the Oregon stats legislature. "For one thing, we are getting too expensive In our school plans," he stated. "I doubt wheth er the children of today are any better educated when It comes to real education than were the chil dren of 25 years ago. I believe In adequate money for education, but I think It Is a mistake to go too far. Teachers In our educa tional institutions are well mean ing and deserving, and I believe In giving them everything they need, but I think that as par-1 ents and taxpayers we ought to run the schools rather than hav ing them run us." I There are any number of move ments on foot to help all kinds of people, according to the speaker, the tendency being more and more for each small group to want something In particular for itself. Representative Lloyd T. Rey nolds of Marlon county spoke br'cf ly, endorsing some of the things Mr. Gordon had said. Mark McAl lister, on the house ways and means committee, made a short speech on the stats financial sit uation. "We ars confronted with a serious shortage of funds this year," he said, "and state Insti tutions hftve to be taken care of first." The policy of the state board is to add no more wings to the Insane asylum at Salem, be stated, the next additions, when It become possible to build them, to be made to the Institution at Pendleton. The two Institutions together can bold only about 100 more patients under present cir cumstances, he said. Anthony Euwer read one of nl own poems entitled "When Jim Gets to It." To be prejudiced is always to be weak.

The more important measure. Including thoas that mean lengthy argument and alow action ar still In com mittee with only 11 days left, If the .-rslon end on schedule. Whether the sewlon snds on schedule or not depends on what course relations between the legis lature and governor runs, accord ing to those best In position to know.

LEGION DRAFTS aut any and all mention of crana orianizauou. from any T Bent on washing politics out of all consideration of matters effect- ing the bonus commission and bonus legislation, ths American Legion, through Ita legislative com mlttee, has taken a band In the tangle that has grown out of at tempts to alter ths political com plexion of the commission with a view to securing ths removal of Major W. P. Simpson, secretary of ths board, and has drawn up and presented a bill embodying the amendments It desires to the bonus act.

It Is not satisfac tory to the legion and other vet- sngle. IF BOTHERS 81LY HEW If any children araeom plalntaf of lleaaacfca. WTeruhneM, HUmara Trouble and lrrefular Bowala and Uaa oold cully.
