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."

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.

that after 10 years of research he had found in vitamin D

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

stages by changing the patient's diet
to Include quantities of spring but

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.

said, "we practice self-cannibalism.

JAZZ SYMBOL

Moscow (IP) Jazz Is a contra

capitalist world, a dread tempta

vates homes. But It dare not raise
its syncopated voice in public. Net
in respectable public, that is to say.

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.
