The Kid's Learned
to "Take Charge"
I was down at B*..\ Benson’s
store the other day whsn a fellow
came in with a six-year-old boy —
obviously his son.
While the fellow was looking
over some stuff on the count?r,
Buck handed a free peppermint
stick to the boy, who promptly
tore off the wrapper and went to
work on it.
The father seemod quite put
out about his son’s lack of man
ners and held up his hand to stop
him. “ What do we say when Mr.
Benson gives us something?” he
demanded. “ Charge it,” replied
the kid without hesitation
From where I sit, children aren’t
the only ones who “repeat things”
without knowing what they’re
talking about. For instance, I’m
convinced that many of those who
speak out against the old Amer
ican custom of enjoying a glass of
beer after work are just parroting
what they’ve heard others say. It’s
better to get the facts—then make
up our own minda —and permit
our neighbors to do the lame.

TENURE
One thing we should get rid of In
Oregon Is tenure, both In state
government and in the schools.
There is surely some way to make
an employe immune to the whims
of a partisan Ixiss without giv
ing him life time right to a Job
whether he does his work well or
not.
Criticism of public employees
protected by tenure must not l»e
considered as criticism of all pub
lic employees. Those who do their
work well and conscientiously—
anil they are probably a majority
—should lie the last to condone
the laziness of those who do not.
It Is almost Impossible to fire a
public employee after he or she
has served long enough to acquire
tenure. Any attempt to do so
raises the question of favoritism.
A hearing must lie held and no
political dvjxirtment head wants
to go through that very often.
The lietter employees go on to
better Jobs In private Industry
and the better teachers go on to
lietter Jobs In California and the
state anti school district gets to
keep the inefficient ones who
need the protection of tenure.
We believe that a worker who
needs to be protected from lei ng
fired by anything but his good
conduct ar>l good work needs fir-
ng. Human nature being what It
is there is much less efficiency
displayed when there is no danger
that the Job will tie lost.
The state of Oregon would be
better governed If it was possible
to get rid of a fifth of the em
ployees and raise the pay of those
that remained so they would
stay on the Job. They roukl do
the work. One of the good effects
that will come from a taxpayer
revolt- -which L surely «ot0ig—

TH E Y CALL THIS THE ATOM IC AGE . . . the
era of the “ thinking” machine. But above all, this is
the age of human thought. For today our country
needs more and more skilled minds to harness our
atoms, advance our culture and guide our government.
Standard, too, needs fresh concepts to maintain its
position in a highly competitive business. That’s why
this year Standard’s educational program makes avail
