Statistics on Universities.
I
N connection with the demand for economy at uie
schools of hiirher education in Oroiron, a sonoH oi i.ui-
i;u miiiiuimri liv tiio Orptrnn Voter in its current
edition are of interest. Tho tnbulntions are hased on
figures taken from a federal report of 1922, and in con
sidering them it Hliould be homo in mind that attendance
at the University of Oregon has considerably increased
Bince that time, and that the growth of its revenues has
T.nt irnni nam with that increase. A compnriHon of reve
nues from all sources of Pacific coast universities as given
by tho Voter shows: ,
' Ter Student
University of California $572.57
University of Idaho 760.5G
University of Oregon 390.fi:)
ITnivornitv of Washincton ... - 354.38
The following tabulation shows the revenues from
taxation of tho various universities:
Per Student
University of California $281.16
University, of Idaho - ?!2-P4
University of Oregon 3(i0.39
TTniveruitv of "Wasliintrton ... - 209.08
As to how well the various universities are manned
in point of the number of faculty members employed,
there is tne ionowing:
Students
per professor
University of California .... - 1.1.49
University of Idaho - - - - - - - 11.71
University of Oregon - 18.30
Univorsity of Washington .... 20.18
Tho Voter finds that Orecon is more liberal than
any other stato of equal or greater population, out of
6i Biates on WHICH It ijiihub iu wiuuiuwwn, i mv; iuuk-
ter of providing for higher education. This state ex
pends annunlly on higher education $2.80 per capita
of population. Appreciation of tho opportunities of
fered is iighor in this state than in any other on the
Pacific coast, as is evidenced by tho fact that tho per
centage of attendance at Oregon's university to the
total of tho stato 's population is .822, as agninRt .463
for California, .391 for Idaho and .562 for "Washington.
Such a showing is a tribute alike to Oregon's liberality
in the causo of higher education, to tho excellence of
tho opportunities offered at its university, and to the,
recognition of tho valuo of those opportunities on the
part of Oregon's young peoplo and thoir parents.
Mr. Bryan En Tour.
IN one of his diatribes ngainst those who venture to
differ from him in religious belief, and arguing for
the upholding of tho funny anti-evolution law in Ten
nessee, Air. Bryan said at New York: "Wo must win if
the world is to be saved." That is precisely what Mr.
.Bryan said in 189(i, only then it was tho United States
which was to bo saved by tho victory ho was to win
for freo silver. ' Mr. Bryan and freo silver lost and tho
United Slates has gono right nlong.
Mr. Bryan at present is giving the most notable
publics exhibition of individual bigotry of recent years.
When a student nt Brown university asked him a ques
tion tho othor day that stumped him, ho insulted tho
student and stalked off tho platform. When a Congre
gational minister at New York differed from his stnto
ment that modernists cannot send missionaries abroad
"because they have no messago to send," Mr. Bryan
rudoly declared: "After this I'll exclude tho Congre
gationalists. If they have no creed nnd stand for noth
ing I'll loave them out."
In his receut spooolies Mr. Bryan has repeatedly
advanced the idea that "the Jiand that writes the pay
check is tho hand that controls the schools." Tho impli
cation is sinister. Mr. Bryan would make the test of
a school teacher's qualifications his adhcreneo to a
beaten track in religion. Apparently ho would strike
from tho school payroll the names of all teachers who
do not believe as ho believes.
Since tlio Tennesseo law was enacted and il ease to
test it brought in court, and since Mr. Bryan embarked
upon his expedition of support for the law, people have
begun to aBk about and study tho theory of evolution
who never hod given it thought before. This undoubtedly
is as true in Tennesseo as in other states. General iii
torost and speculation in the subject have been aroused,
mainly through Mr. Bryan's efforts.'
Ono of two men who are to bo hanged nt Salem
Friday is so crippled that ho will not bo ablo to stand
alono on tho trap, but will be strapped to a board and
dropped, board and all, to the rope's end. The poor
wretch is guilty of inciting murder and is of no earthly
uso to himself or anybody. But what n spectacle! What
price justice I
Petition hawkers for tho tithing bill and the bus
and truck tax bill are said to be finding the going
rather hard. That is good. If tho attempt to invoke
tho referendum on these measures fails, that fact will
go far to offset tho contention that tho initiative and
referendum nro subject to grave abuses in Oregon.
Speaking of optimists, there is Curl G. Washburue.

If Mr. Bryan would say that the

in the past few years for their uuor-

MOROCCO IS WILD COUNTRY
Vanderlng Tribesmen Constant Menace to Adventurous Auto
mobile Tourists
By CHARLES P. STEWART
(NEA Service Writer)
WASHINGTON, , May 20. Word
from France that several Ameri
canautomobilc parties are in, or at
any rate on the edge of the Moroccan
war zone, is causing acute uneasiness
here. It'a a wild country, of wandering
tribesmen, with a picturesque native
village here and there and a spice of
peril. " ,p
Adventurous tourists like it. The
emphasis, however, on the item of
peril is rather too heavy .to be pleas
ant just now. The Gallic military au
thorities are discouraging civilians
from running irtfo dnnger hut the
reckless ones nre hard to control.
Washington officials nre .not much
nfrnid Abd-el-Krim, th-e chief rebel,
will kill any Americans he may cntch,
except by accident. He kills Span
iards, whom ho particularly dislikes,
hut no far an known, he has nothing
agaiiiKt tho United States.
What is considered likelier is that
he'll hold Amerienn captives to rnn
som He does this even with Spaniard!
if their friends have money enough
to bo worth while. Occasionally, when
somebody's relatives aro slow in re
mitting, he sends in one of the pris
oner's ears, as a gentle reminder.
Officials are aware in advance that
anything of this kind pr noticed on an
American would stnrt a terrible howl,
not only from the victim, but here
at home, as well vehement demands
that "something be done."
And it might be hard to think up
anything effective to do.
The state department recalls that
President Roosevelt had such a case
to deal with once minus the detail of
the amputated ear. It was that of the
naturalized American he was born a
Greek Perdicaris, who was kidnaped
for ransom by the Moroccan bandit
Raisuli. "Perdicaris alive or Rnisull
dead!" was "Teddy's" cabled ultima
tum to the sultan. It worked that
time. The ultnn dug up the ransom
himself. But there's no en Ita in to ca
ble to now. An ultimatum might be
served on Abd-el-Krim, but the
French and Spanish impression is that
he's ultimatum proof.
Speaking of the sultain reminds the
state department of another experi
ence withthe ame ruler. A Chicago
private banker named Stensland had
skipped with depositors' money. He
turned up in Morocco.
' The state department asked for
him. "Not," said the sultan,, "while
his money lats." There was no ex-1
'tradition with Morocco then. Assist
ant District Attorney (now judge)
Harry Olson of Chicago went over to
nee about it. He cultivated the sultan
socially became his warm friend.
1 II tlTssf:t II NT
Then he asked for Stensland just
as & friend. "As a sultain," replied
the monarch, "we have our dignity to
consider. We can't surrender him, but
perhaps he'll go voluntarily,"
And he ordered Stesland locked up.
Anybody who knows the inside of s
Moroccan prisen knows why, in a
couple of days, the captive sent for
Olson and begged for the luxury of
Joliet.
