Change in Law Would Help Recreation Building Needed
In veiw of the housing shortage, which is get
ting no better at a rapid rate, it appears reasonable
to advocate that laws or regulations that effect cer
tain projects be changed. This thought is brought
to mind by a decision handed down just recently
by the state attorney relative to the building of
teacherages. Like the Morrow county hospital
case, it was somewhat of a setback to learn that
a school district cannot be bonded to erect a
teach erage.
While Mr. Neuner's opinion was given in re
sponse to a request from Umatilla county it is
statewide and directly affects a proposed teach
erage to be built in lone by school district No. 35.
The need for such housing is too obvious to war
rant discussion. The average school is faced with
a difficult task in acquiring teachers. If housing
facilities are poor or, as in many places, practic
ally nil, it is easy enough to imagine the prob
lems school boards have to wrestle with. Their
difficulties could be greatly lessened if they
could arrange housing for their teacher corps
and not have to depend upon the uncertainty of
pacing them here and there.
There may be some good reason for not per
mitting school" districts to bond for this purpose,
but it must be remembered that we are in an
emergency with the prospects that it will take
at least five years under favorable conditions to
bring needed relief. Unless something is done,
and that soon, the teacher problem will grow
worse instead of better.
The matter of using funds accumulated by
the county through pari mutuel betting proceeds
for the purpose of building a county fair pavilion
and recreation hall has been up for discussion in
the American Legion and the Heppner chamber
of commerce. According to the law under which
the fund was established, it is permissable to
use it in the erection of a building, or buildings
for the use of the public at large.
This county has at present upwards of $21,
000 accumulated under the racing setup.. If tne
new track in Portland goes into operation and is
not halted after a few years, it will be possible
to put up a $50,000 building here and finance it
through the racing fund. It is deemed permissable
to build a. county fair building, which would be
used for that purpose about one week out of the
year, and use it as a recreation building the rest
of the time.
That is a good idea and should go farther
than the discussion stage. At present there is
scarcely a suitable place in the county for large
public gatherings, and aside from the limited so
cial use made of the school facilities there is no
place for young people, and old, for that matter,
to enjoy wholesome recreation.
The county and the city should get together
on this project and do some swapping of pro
perties that would make it possible for one or the
other to provide a proper site for the building.
Some of these vacant untaxed lots would look a
lot better with a haudsome structure on them,
even if they remain untaxed.
