CAPITAL INCW5
o Pearson Treasurer?
o Murals Hung
o Teachers' Salaries
By A. L. LINDBECK
SALEM Walter E. Pearson, Port
land democrat, may be Oregon's new
state treasurer if he wants the job,
according to current state house
gossip. Pearson, former state sena
tor from the Multnomah-Clackamas
district and now a member of the
State Board of Higher Education, is
known to rate high in the esteem of
Governor Martin who, according to
this same gossip will have the re
sponsibility of filling the treasury
post when Rufus C. Holman resigns
to become a United States senator.
Holman, it is pretty well under
stood, would very much like to see
his very good friend, P. J. Stadel
man of The Dalles, take his place in
the new capitol when he goes back
to Washington. It has even been sug
gested that Hojman would be will
ing to postpone his trip back to the
national capital until after the re
publicans take over the reins of gov
ernment in Oregon again on January
9 in order to bring about Stadel
man's appointment. Governor-elect
Sprague, however, so the rumor
goes, has refused to play ball with
Holman on the Stadelman appoint
ment, being reluctant to incur the
displeasure of powerful Republican
leaders in Multnomah county who
feel that their particular section of
the state is entitled to representa
tion on the board of control and
that Holman's successor should
therefore come from the third Con
gressional district
Governor Martin although a great
admirer of Stadelman is under
stood to feel himself duty bound to
appoint a Democart in case the se
lection of Holman's successor falls
to his lot as now appears to be the
case with Holman understood to be
packing his bags in preparation for
departure for Washington imme
diately after Christmas.
Four outstanding historic events
in the discovery, exploration and
founding of Oregon are depicted in
"the murals now being hung in the
rotunda of the new capitol. One of
the huge canvasses depicts the dis
covery of the Columbia river by
Captain Robert Gray in 1792. Anoth
er shows the Lewis & Clark expe
dition at Celilo falls on the Upper
Columbia led by the Indian maiden,
Sacajewea. A third mural depicts
Dr. John McLaughlin, Hudsons Bay
company factor at Vancouver, greet
ing the first white women to arrive
in the Oregon country, among them
Mrs. Narcissa Whitman, wife of the
pioneer missionary. The fourth mu-

ral depicts the arrival of the great

new
settlers whose presence in the Ore
gon country was destined to save
the territory to the United States.
Four smaller murals placed at eith
er side of the broad staircases lead
ing to the House and Senate cham
ber depict the state's principal in
dustries lumbering, fishing, dairy
ing, fruit raising, grain, mining and
grazing. Two other large murals,
yet to be painted, will occupy pan
els at the front of the House and
Senate chambers. One of these will
portray the controversial Champoeg
incident in which the settlers vote
the Oregon country into the Uni
ted States. The other will depict the
arrival of the courier from Oregon
City at Salem with news of the ad
mission of Oregon into the union
of states. The murals are being hung
under the personal supervision of
the New York artists who painted
them Frank H. Schwarz and Barry
Faulkner. The larger murals meas
ure 10 by 26 feet in size. The small
er murals are 10 by 18 feet. Al
ready 25 months have been con
sumed in the painting of the can
vasses and six months more will be
required to complete the task.
Threat of a national boycott of
Oregon products by labor organiza
tions as a measure of reprisal against
this state for approval of the anti
picketing bill is contained in a let
ter received by Governor Martin
this week from the head of a teach
ers' union in Connecticutt. In re
questing a copy of the new law tht
secretary of the eastern union says
that "we have heard that our coop
eration may be asked in a national
boycott of Oregon apples, woolens
and other products in protest against
this law."
Salaries of Oregon school teach
ers average less than $90 a month,
computed on a 12-month basis, ac
cording to reports compiled by Rex
Putnam, state superintendent of
public instruction. Grade school
teachers receive an average of only
$930 a year with the average in 24
of the state's 36 counties falling be
low that figure and ranging from a
low of $718.93 a year in Wheeler
county to a high of $1183.90 a year
in Multnomah county.
Salaries paid to high school teach
ers average $1314.96 a year ranging
from a low of $928.16 a year in Lin
coln county to a high of $1535.85 in
Multnomah county, Putnam's fig
ures show. However, these salaries
are much higher than were being
paid in this state three years ago
when grade school teachers were
averaging only $787.65 a year and
high school teachers, $1132.87.
Slot-machines, marble boards and
pin ball games are all taboo in Ore
gon under the recentlty approved
anti-gambling laws even though
played for amusement only and with
no hope of gain, Attorney General
Van Winkle has ruled in an opinion
to James R. Bain, district attorney
for Multnomah county. The attorney
general ruled that the games ran
counter to the "for profit" provis
ion of the new laws when a coin
was inserted in the slot and that
their prohibition under the Oregon
statute did not depend upon their
being a lottery or a gambling game.
Transfer of the parole power from
the governor to an independent
board of three members appointed
by the governor is recommended
in a report on prison problems in
Oregon just completed by the Prison
Industries Reorganization adminis
tration, a federal agency. The re
port also recommends the establish
ment of a combined state adult pro
bation and parole service and the es
tablishment of work camps for the
employment of selected prisoners
and parollees at a small compensa
tion "to enable them to make a start
when released into society." The re
port, based upon a survey of the
state prison, also recommends the
development of a number of specific
prison industries for the employ
ment of prisoners. These include a

stamping plant, cannery, clothing

other smaller industries. Expansion
of the dormitory facilities at the
prison annex for the accommodation
of an additional 100 prisoners and
the. erection of an institution for
women prisoners on a farm away
from the penitentiary are other rec
ommendations contained in the re
port. Mrs. Clara C. Patterson will re
tire as superintendent of the State
Industrial School for Girls the last
of this month after 18 years in that
position. Prior to taking charge of
that institution in 1921 Mrs. Patter
son was employed for a number of
years at the state hospital here.
She will be succeeded as head of the
girls school by Mrs. M. Wilson Sav
age who has been employed at the
institution for the past 15 years,
more recently as bookkeeper and
assistant superintendent.
