Free Text Books The annual agitation to force the state into the school book publishing business to supply free text-books to public school pupils is underway, stimulated by the increased cost of text-books, caused by increased cost of publication, higher prices for material and labor since the old contracts with publishers, now expired, were made. For the state to supply the books free of cost would be a fine thing for the man with a large family, but it would simply shift the burden on the taxpayer and still further increase taxes. Moreover, the stale could not publish the books as cheaply as private publishers, for few tilings the Btate does are done efficiently, and state printing has usually been a source of graft and political patronage. Free text books are another manifestation of the bureau cratic paternalism which is undermining self-reliance and independence and making us wards of the state, as we drift towards the bread and circus stage of ancient Rome. One by one, we seek to escape our responsibilities by shoving our burdens onto the state. Yet, even with free text books the parents would still be paying for school books, as well as for supervising bureau-j cracy, not directly, but indirectly, in increased cost of living imposed by those upon whom the burden of taxation falls, aiififfestins a long walk out across the hills.

Now Playing at the Heilig .LILLIAN GISH Zn 'ROMOLAT NEGLIGENCE IS CHARGED BY MITCHELL (Continued from Pag Ono ins: "The point is we can't be chok ed off this way when everybody else Is going ahead." Discussing the Lasslter aircraft report, Colonel Mitchell declared that the secretary of the navy re peatedly declined to accept any suggestions which would link the army and navy air services, even declining the proposal of the sec retary of war that the appropria tions for the services be consider ed Jointly. Rivalry Is Cited He read the testimony given by Secretary vceeks before a house committee In which he said that for the navy to get more money for aviation than the army wouM be unjust The work of army bombing planes." he said, "has amounted to nothing this summer. The bomb ing group has been used to tow targets. The commander Is now in Maine shooting Moose and try ing to recover after such procedure." Regarding the aircraft tests on the battleship Washington, Col. Mitchell declared that testimony was given to the house aircraft committee that the ship's bombing aircraft was Ineffectual. This state ment, he charged, was not in keep lug with the facts, adding, that these tests showed that aircraft pro perl v used, could sink any sur face vessel afloat and that the only thing necessary for final proof of his statement was for tests to be conducted which would give air craft a fair chance. Officers Muzzled "There have yet," he said, "been no adequate tests to determine the effectiveness of aircraft In Its clash with naval vessels." j Colonel Mitchell again brought up the charge made by him last winter that Junior officers were "muzzled" to prevent them from telling the truth to congressional committees. He added that the war department had a reporter in the committee room. "Does this interfere with your testimony?" asked Representative Vinson of Georgia. "It doesn't bother me," Mitchell replied, "but It tends to retard a flow of testimony by junior offi cers.' "You realize this Is a public hearing?" asked Dwlght W. Mor row, board chairman. "Yes," answered Mitchell. "I Just Injected this on tho side." "Do you think," Inquired Judge Arthur C. Denison of Grand Rap ids Mich., "this has any effect on testimony If the army general staff has a stenographer here?" Flyers Intimidated "It has the efect," continued Mitchell, "that you might get a letter asking for all facts and data on your statements." Since General Patrick (army air chief) testified here lust week, lie has received a letter asking him to furnish a complete estimate, ol! aircraft expenditures ami a bii(!ge( on needs." thought maybe having n sten ographer here might be a desire by the general taff to save buying a record o the healing," Mr. Den isnn said. That may be but It works tho olher way," replied Mitchell. France" Is aspiring to control tho air." he said, "in tho same manner England controls tho sea. Every nation is coming forward with belter planes than ours." The air service of .England, France and Germany were all su perior to that of the United Slates he said, because "those countries realize the practical value of air craft during the world war." The greatest development, ho a hi. has been in the forces of Great Britain. DUMB DORA By Chick Young Another Coolidge Victory Tho Shipping Board Iiiih broken definitely with President CuolidKo and virtually defied his efforts to harmonize the 'differences between its members and Admiral Palmer, pres ident of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. The board backs- lip Commissioner Haiiey of Portland in his refusal to resign nt tho presidents request and sustains his position m demanding the resignation of Admiral Palmer, and tor revolt ing his powers, in an ultimatum to Mr. Coolidge. Here is another Coolidge victory, similar to those he won in congress, when all the vital measures he opposed, such as tho bonus bill, were passed over his opposition and the mens tires he chain nioned. such as the Mellon tax bill, were defeated. Here is a commission of his own appointment, defy ing him and refusing to follow his policy, just as a congress controlled by his own parly refused to follow him. , Persistent propaganda has created a super-statesman out of the disembodied "spokesman of the White House" who rannot put anything over with the cards all slacked in his lavor. How much longer the myth can be perpetuated is one of the mysteries of politics but not long, when even ap jiointeos defy him. Can You Beat It? In a letter to the Corvallis Gazette-Times in which Covcrnor Pierce defends the political propaganda of his constitution week proclamation and assails that newspaper as the mouthpiece of big business, the executive says: My lot him licon rasl with Ilio other rr.iwil, with tho tllli-r ami the toiler. My nwanl Is the warm hanil grip of my Mlow-fnrmer anil the lli;ht lli.it shines In the eyes of his raltliliil wife when they thank me for the honest efforts I ant nialdne, to ease the Heavy linrilen niaeeu on them hy our prem-in unfair system of taxation. Can you beat it? You can almost hear the soft splash of the tears as they fall from Weeping Waller over the sad late of the taxpayers whose coin he spends so freely in elucidating their woes. But the sacrifice is worthwhile for the light that shines in women's eyes is matched only by the light that lies in the governor's eyes "and lies, and lies, and lies!"
