' BuriVet Estimates. A teuiulive estimate of th school budget for the coming year, aB presented by Superimenden Hug, showed that an Increase el,c8o over the amount of last year will be necessary to carry c-u oa-.ein puonc schools. The rai in Salem high school alone has Often ?ol72.au, he reported, add tiom.l expenses including the sal arise of three new teachers.

FEEDER CATTLE Washington, Oct. 14 (AP) rroHpciM for a continuing strong market In feeder cattle were re ported today by the department of agriculture. Tho statement was made based on tho heavy market lngs of western cattle, the general ly Improved feeding In western rattle reglotiR, and the Improved feed situation In recent weeks In he soutbwcAt. Tho department reported some' what reduced shipments of stack er and feeder cattle Into the corn belt during July, August and Sep tember n compared with the cor responding months last year, al though receipts of cattle at leading markets during tho same period. hewed an increano. Shipments of stocker and feed er cnttlo from the 13 leading mar kets Into all stated totalled only HI) ft, 000 for the three months per iod this year, against 986,000 for the same period In 1924, The rea son for this decrease, the depart ment explained. "Is probably found In the general shortage In pasture that has existed all summer In most of the Important cattle feed ing states." With old nnd new dried logan berries pretfy well cleaned, al though It Is reported there are a few dnbs left, Robert C. Paulus re ports that within the past few days he has received three live Inquiries for some of the dried berries. One of those Inquiries stated that a cor respondent of the Inquiring com pany In the Orient Is looking for high quality dried lognns. Another was from tho middle west and an other was just a general Inquiry not Indicating where the berries were wanted. There wre bift few logans dried this year and the carryover has been selling well. 'The Inquiries Indicate this,' said Paulus, "that there Is still a live market for dried loganberries. While I wouldn't venture to say there Is as much money in drying them as can be had for the fresh berries In a (-cent market, never theless It shows that there Is an out let tor a certain amount of. dried logsnherrles and will continue to bo if the market Is kept alive." ly criticized for not acting prompt ly enough," said Director Slmeral, who acted as chairman In the ab sence of Dr. H. II. Ollnger. "Dur ing that epidemic one small girl died, and some said that It was due to our neglect In not acting prompt ly. We were determined In this case that we would act at once." A determined delegation of Sa lem citizens who objected to the action of scliol authorities last Monday appeared before tho board last night, and made an urgent plea to have the children who were went home Monday because they dc cllned to be vaccinated, sent back to school. The delegation was pre sided over by J. C. Tlbbets nnd In cluded Mayor Glcsy, who epoke "not in my official capacity." Object to Yncclnntloii Tho principal basis of the dele gation's contention was that child ren exposed to the smallpox last week. If kent out of school, would run at largo about the city, endang children out of school, erlng more" persons than would be endangered by their return to school. None of the parents prea ent offered to keep his children at home, but freely predicted that they would run at large. They further contended that the action as taken by school authorl' ties was too hasty, and was more stringent than the facts warranted, The board contended that in the absence of expert medical know ledge among their own member ship they depended on the advice of the school physician. No direct medical testimony was Introduced by the delegation, the nearest ap proach being the statement by Percy Cupper that a local physl clan had told him "that there Is no use In vaccinating after the patient has been exposed it Is then too late and if he Is going to take It h will take It anyway. School Board Firm P. M. GregoYy apparently voiced the opinion of the board when h said, "If an epidemic did spread we would be at the mercy of the public to the extent of a sever tongue lashing, at least.'' Slmeral declared that two other physicians had been consulted in addition to Dr. D. R. Ross, the school doctor, and that both had recommended the steps taken. At th!s point Tibbets rose to his feet. "For your information," he said, "1 want to tell you that there is at present one case of small pox not under quarantine in any way, The patient Is allowed to roam the city ot will." Then it is your duty, as a citi zen of Salem, to report the case to the proper authorities," said Sim- eral. Tibbets changed the subject to the diphtheria epidemic at In glewood school. Joko Says Mayor 'At that time," he declared, "the children were all over the city. contend that It would have been better to corral them In the school building, where they would not have endangered anyone but one another." Tibbets further Intlmat ed that the vaccinations were per formed without official sanction by the school board, as required by law. "I know of at least one mem ber of this board," he said, "who knew nothing about the vaccina tions until I told him Monday of ternoon what was going on." Mayor Giesy spoke briefly in sup port of the arguments made by the delegation. "I want you to know that in my officiol capacity I will back up whatever action the board may take," he said, "but at the same time my private opinion is that the whole thing Is a Joke." Three women spoke, one of them stating that at the time of Mon day's vaccinations many of the high school boys had deceived the authorities Into thinking they had been recently vaccinated by paint ing spots on their arms with iodine or some other substance. Chiropractors Talk One man rose to his feet and In troduced himself as the president of the Oregon State Chiropractors association. Ho declared that ho new many who had "criticized the board very severely" for what had ta'ken place. He then launch ed out Into nn attack on physicians in general, declaring that "man kind Is running around a prey to hs medical practitioner. But peo ple are getting wise," he continu ed. "They aren't fooled so easily as they used to be." He finally ask ed the board If they knew -wny smallpox breaks out in the fall In stead of In the spring." "No, we don't," said Slmeral. "Well, you can get all the litera ture you watn on that subject by writing to out " In the fact of all arguments pre sented the board remained firm. They had held a special session In the room adjoining me reguiai place of meeting, adjourning to the regular meeting at 8 o'clock. the regular meeting time. J. C. Tibbets, leader of the dele gation, intimated that legal steps might be taken against the board's action. Such action had been tak In a similar situation with hlch he was connected In "Port land, he said, the court finally Is suing an injunction restraining the school authorities from keeping ine Standard Banjo Tenor Banjo Manolin Guitar Ukulele Beginners Les sons Interest ing and Progres siveAdvanced Students' Pre pared for Profes sional Orchestra Playing TELEPHONE Weidt's Chord System SIMPLIFIED HARMONY Adapted to the Instrument You Piny G.
