TO TURN STATE
VETERANS' HOME
TO GOVERNMENT
Roseburg. Ore. At a meeting
of the soldiers' home committee of
the Roseburg chamber of commerce
Friday it was decided to center work
upon securing the present state sol
diers' home as the site for the pro
posed national home in Roseburg.
A bill now before congress voting
two million dollars, is expected to be
passed soon by the senate. The com
mittee will come to Roseburg during
the summer, according to present
plans, to definitely locate the site.
It is believed the present state in
stitution offers a nucleus that can
be used to best advantage to secure
prompt use of the home.
The site purchased by tne state
forty years ago is well developed,
has an irrigation plant, a fine hos
pital that can be enlarged, and
buildings that can be put into im
mediate use. New and more com
modious structures are being built
and options will be secured on ad
Joining land to provide as much
space as the government will need.
Legislative leaders who have been
spoken to believe the legislatur will
be willing to pass a bill turning the
present Institution over to the gov
ernment as a state home will then
be necessary.

preciation for the splendid service
rendered the school and the town.
states the report of Miss Lena B&He
Tartar, director of the department
of music at the high school Miss
Tarter points out that great care
and foresight will be taken to main
tain this fcigh rating another year.

ing the home room period, new ana
undiscovered musical talent has
been revealed in boys and girls'
glee clubs and a greater efficiency
In small singing groups has been
developed, states the report, which
adds that another year will see
greater advance in both these
lines, for a select group has been
assigned to the music tcacr.ers for
the home room period. Work of the
Crescendo club, organization of
students who have seriously taken
up music as a study, has been
outstanding.

growth and achievement in the so
cial science department of the two
Junior high schools, according to
the annual report of Miss Signe
Paulson, department supervisor,
than in any other single year in
which she has held her present po
sition. Creation by the teachers of a
course of study- for the 9th grade
had very creditable rasults. A class
room library in each history room,
the lengthening of the periods by
the new junior high school schedule
which gave more time for activities
and library work in all classes, su
pervised study, all contributed to
the success of the year's work. Spe
cial commendation was made by
Miss Paulson to George Hug, city
school superintendent, of the dra
matization of the American ization

TAX BOARD NOT
WORRIED OVER
STATE BANK TAX
Oregon's state tax commission is
not alarmed at the decision by the
supreme court of the state of Wash
ington holding invalid the bank tax
in that state. The Oregon excise tax,
affecting banks and other financial
corporations, In force this year for
the first time, is protected by a con
stitutional provision enacted by the
people In 1917, John H. Carkin,
member of the tax commission, ex
plained. "The. state of Washington,- said
Carkin, "has a constitutional re
quirement that all property must be
taxed at uniform rates. It doesn't al
low the classification of property,
and no tax such as an Income tax
or Oregon's intangibles and excise
taxes can be Imposed under it.
"In Oregon the amendment of
1917 provided for ths classification
of property, so that different class
es can be taxed at different rates.
If banks were taxed In Washington
they would have to be taxed at the
same rates as all other property la
taxed, but the court3 have previous
ly held against that, so Washington
is out and injured until its consti
tution is changed.'
An amendment that would remedy
the Washington situation, Carkin
said. Is to be voted on by the people
this fall. It was defeated last year.
In Oregon the amendment was vot
ed on four times before it was
adopted.

Thursday afternoon when the char

ers which had refused to budge and
piled upon them.
Several of the animals were bad
ly hurt and one had to be shot. The
driver of the running team was
