PAGE TWELVE THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON MONDAY, APRIL 21, 1930 CHARGE STEED : DRIVES PUPILS OUT OF SCHOOL : Charges that J. Lyman Steed, sup erintendent ot the Oregon School for the Deaf, discriminates agalnxt some of bis teachers in the payment ot salaries, mat he is haughty in his attitude towards teachers, harsh in discipline, and that each year there is an exodus of pupils from the school because of Steed's meth ods, will be made before the state board of control when It gives a hearing next Friday to certain teachers and parents of pupils who are trying to have Steed ousted. Steed's side of the case probably will not be heard until later. Maurice Werner of Salem, presi dent of the State Association for the Deaf, said Monday that the as sociation has been watching Steed's work and has concluded that he should be replaced. Wcrnei said the association Is not urging the appointment of any particular person. Complaint also Is made at Steed's method of instruction. The stud ents are retarded In their studies. Werner says, by the superintend' ent's Insistence that they gain i mastery of speech and speech read ing before they proceed with in struction, although he agreed to use the combined system when he was employed several years ago. . Werner declared that Steed's con duct Inspires fear among the pupils, resulting In pupils leaving the school each year. Relative to the salaries paid teachers Werner said that Steed Influences the state board to pay high salaries to teach- en whom he likes and discrimin ates against others. The reason a number of teachers resigned last year, said Werner, was not low salaries but was Steed's attitude to wards them. "We are only asking a square deal for the pupils," Werner said. "They are losing too much because of the continuous controversy be tween Steed and the teachers. We want a fair and Impartial hearing." TWO-WAY TELEVISION DEMONSTRATED IN NEW YORK SPORE HARDIEST LIVING PARTICLE Ann Arbor, Mich. (LP) The hard iest living thing in the world Is a tiny partide of protoplfim that looks like dust and is called a spore. Although entirely cut off from air, sunlight, moisture and food, the spores of two well-known fungi have remained alive for 30 years, and were still living when last ex-amfn-d by Miss Adelta McCrea, mycologist in a Detroit Research Laboratory. She has just reported these facts to the Michigan Aca demy of Science, Arts and Letters. Describing the methods used in determining the truth of the pop ular statement that "spores will live for years," Miss McCrca said that In 1897 the spores of black bread mold and of another fungus called Aspergillus oryzae were care fully dried, hermetically sealed in a test tube and placed In a safe at the laboratories. "Twenty-two years later the tube was opened for the first time," she reported. "Some of the spore-dust was shaken out and the spores promptly began to grow. Again In 1927, when the spores had been kept 30 years, the tube was re opened and more of the spore-dust was removed and found to be alive. "These tests will be repeated every five years to determine how long a living thing can exist under the most unfavorable conditions for sustaining life." Miss McCrea also told of work with a group of common "labora tory weeds" of the mold fungi. Mfty-five cultures were planted from 1919 to 1922. The spores of 35 were still alive eight to ten years alter, while those of the re maining 30 probably are dead. .TRANSMITTING' MICROPHONE itnttatcd PrrM Vhote Two pertom im tach other by wlrt whilo they -talked over the telephone from points two end one hall mllee apart recently.

Cleveland sci entist, told an audience of prominent Philadelphia physicians that after 10 years of research he had found in vitamin D preventive, and n some cases a cursvfor the so-called degenerative diseases cancer, heart disease, in fluenza and pneumonia. In come Instances he said he had cured cases of these diseases by the introduction of the vitamin In cap sule form, or in less advanced stages by changing the patient's diet to Include quantities of spring but ter containing a high percentage of the curative element. He did not mention cancer speci fically among these cases. Dr. Price, with conclusions drawn from spectral analysis of the sun's ray, presented the theory that light is composed of those elements which sustain the spring season and are absorbed by grass-eating ani mals. Hence, he said, milk at this season of the year Is abnormally rich In vitamins, particularly vita min D. 'In our modern life," Dr. Price said, "we practice self-cannibalism. We draw Upon the calcium and vit amin content of our bodies to keep us going, and eventually we break down. By introduction of vitamin D, known as the 'sunlight vitamin,' we build up the bone, prevent tooth decay, which 1 the most universal disease, and eventually remove the infections which produce degenera tive diseases. "AlthouKh It is not generally real ized, pyorrhea, or decalcification of the teeth. Is usually accompanied by a similar breakdown in other bones of the body. Hence the rem edy is one of diet. "Our primary object Is that of prevention. It Is regrettable under the circumstances that people have not come to realize fully the ad vantage of spring dairy products. and particularly spring butter. In the winter, mothers pay high prices for 'fresh outer, whereas the pro duct that has been In cold storage from the previous spring la of much higher value.

JAZZ SYMBOL OF CAPITALISM SOVIETS BAR IT Moscow (IP) Jazz Is a contra band and dishonorable thing In this land a symbol of the benighted capitalist world, a dread tempta tion to proletarian youth. A tremendous amount of it Is "bootlegged," as it were. In pri vates homes. But It dare not raise its syncopated voice in public. Net in respectable public, that is to say. such as workers' clubs. Communist Youth affairs, popular restaurants and the like. A few haunts of the comfortably outlawed bourgeoisie, like the Grand hotel and Hotel Europa in this city. provide Jazz dancing in evenings. But no seii-respecung citizen oi the Soviets would venture within earshot of that music, which is therefore utilized only by foreigners and the few Russians who have suf ficient reason for associating with foreigners. j Two clubs until recently did oc casionally provide their customers with Jazz the Kruzhok, an art ists' rendezvous, and Dom OerU zena, a writers' gathering place. These semi-boheroian- places. i was thought, could Indulge in a lit tle of the contraband etutf. ' But Jazz in recent months has suffered in the general drive against Kulaks, Nepman and other rem nants of the capitalist past. Botli the Kruzhok and Dom GerUena no longer are permitted (o play those) American strains though one might say, in parenthesis, tins their Jazz waa usually . played so badly that' it could not be recog nised as such. i There is nothing In the law, ot course, against the playing of Jazz. The compulsion is far stronger than, a law. It is the compulsion ot re spectable Communist opinion which frovns on frivolity of any sort and especially on frivolity that seems to suggest the middle-clasa ouUide world.
