The urge for education In thin country has grown to such propor tions that educational Institutions are being taxed to their utmost to house the millions clamoring for admis sion. ThlKiyear Nw York City has en rolled for tho rirst time In Its his tory more than a million children In Its public school classes. Chicago has to its credit more than half n million. So It goes throughout the country. This is tho contribution which our public schools are making to the nation. It Is the country's Investment In its future. The broad diffusion of education EQUALITY brlngs into conspicuous view therim audiences has also prot laimed it force of the dominating idea of the nation equality of opportunity. Kdu- at ion is not confined to "white collars." Scholastic training pene trates farm, factory and work shop Hundreds of thousands are subjected to Us Influence In night classes, ex tension classes, part-time classes, cor respondence courses and at home, by radio. It makes education as is proper, in a nation founded on de mocracy democratic. This spread of learning calls for an equalization in our social status and education must establish it. Ex isting social classifications can hardly survive the present leveling Influ ence of literacy.

'WHITE CARGO' PLAYS AT CRATERIAN TONIGHT Any attraction that can run contin uously for three years in New York and still play to turn-away business must contain all that is best in theat rical endeavor, not only has the .Met ropolitan city placed Its stamp of ap proval on "White Cargo," as the dra- i iiwiun hi 'iixii! iiiii in imp mil i -1111- one of the best plays seen then in t decade Chicago critics endorsed the play also and the prosperous run of over one year at the Cort Theater in that city attests to Its popularity there. "White Cargo" was written by l.eon Cordon from the book "Hell's I'lay ground" is a vivid love play of the tropics, it is In three . acts and six scenes; in writing this play Mr. Cor don has made no conscientious effect to 'create or eliminate sensationalism but ban faithfully portrayed Africa as it really is. with its eternal sunshine and rot a rot which penetrates the minds and hearts of those white men who attempt to civilize a country that defies their encroachment. The play abounds in Intense dra all set in a scenic, environment that n th "1,u ""Jo1 afford to m ss the sensational wonder . c,,,lU,,.inn wol wlUBfleil lhlll yol, hllve m nn cvc,n ln ,. "What Price Glory' Coining. Is today the "What Price Glory" 'most celebrated play In the world. In- deod( with onc not(lbie exCeption. 'it is the most discussed play the world has ever seen. That exception is also an American play "Uncle Tom's Cabin." Both these plays roused the country for the same reason. The first re flected a burning national question. The second gives u a flaming pic ture of the world war. "What Price filory" has stirred the world because the world accepts it ns the truest picture yet presented of the war. Yet this panorama is revealed almost unconsciously by its authors. Laurence Stalllngs and Maxwell An derson never expected to make history with their play. Their modett intent was to tell the story a comedy. In truth of a battle between two hard boiled marines for the favor of a peasant girt In a nameless village In France. Hut the background of their lory is the world's tragedy, and so snltv with truth is every detail of that harkKround thai we who have heard and read and wondered recognize It instantly for truth. As If by lightning flafhoH. we see the crushing outlines of the war machine ns U rumbles blindlv one. In these vivll flashes our minds grnsp the whole scheme and iniquity of war more completely than we could ever hope to realize It through endles description of evi dence, or scientists' blueprints of how the war mnchine works. . 7 "This play." says Robert Hertch oy, "will do more than the war did.

George Putnam Files Complaint on Closing of Local Fishways To the Kditor: j 1 am enclosing some correspon dence following a complaint 1 filed with the state game warden over the fact that on a recent trip to the Hague river, I found all fishways closed .and consequently no fresh run of fish In the upper river. The subject may be of interest to Rogue river anglers if not to politicians who capitalize sportsmanship for po litical spoils and work the anglers for a bunch of boobs. Yours, OKOnfiR PUTNAM. Salem, Nov. Ill, U125. ' Mi (leo. Putnam, Editor Capitol Journal, Halem, Oregon. J)earleorge: I am enclosing a copy of'let ter just received from our Mr. Coleman regarding tho situation txt the Ttay and Savage dams. Kindly let me know if you think Ills explanation is satisfactory. Cordially yours, K. V. AVKUILU State Oame Warden. Coleman Replies. Mr. K. F. Averlll, State Game Warden, Portland, Oregon. Dear .Mr. Averill: In answer to your telegram re garding the ladders at the Itay and Savage dams, will say I had the water out of the ladders at the Gold Kay dam for some eight or ten days while we were making the necessary repairs on the ladder on the east and north side of the river; the lad (Um on the south and west side of me river during the low water period of late summer and early fall never has had enough water In same to take fish over. In fact, fish are unable . to reach this ladder during the dry season" of the year. Just ns soon as the ladders were repaired the water was niiscd in the dam by the power company sufficient to fur nish plenty of water for the north side ladder to let any and all fish over and has been so maintained ever since the repair work was fin ished. At the Savage Rapids dam onco every year after the irrigation sea son Is over and the water in 'tho river is at the lowest period these people raise the flood gates under the power house and let the entire river go under the dam; this lowers the water at the base of the dam sufficient for these people to make an Investigation of the conditions of the dam, and to make nny necessary repairs on the flam that urt, neces sary, etc. While this Is being done, there is no water in the ladder at all or at least not enough water t" take fish over. This year they had to do quite a lot of repair work and they have had the water out of the ladder for some ten days or more making these repairs, hut now nre ready to turn the water back In the ladder, while this work was going on there were no fish running up stream. Bo I do not think that nny hnrm was done. The people (sportsmen) of south ern Oregon will have to reconcllo themselves to the fact that at least once a ypar the people who are ope rating nn irrigation project of the magnitude of this one will hnve to hnve the right and privilege to take ndvantngc -of the low water period to mnke the necessary Investigation and repairs. During this time of the year there are no new runs of any kind of fish In the river and these people take advantage of this fact, an well ns of the low water to do ftilB work. Tjiey are more than willing at all times to co-operate .with the commission and to do everything in their power to get Hsh over the dam, and they should T?e commended by the public and the people of this part of tho state instead of crlt-lsed for what they have done. 1 am well nwnre of the fact that you and thgL rommrwlon understand these conditions nnd look at the same in a broadnilnded way, so pleaio ! f5 , rmJ RAAIIOni rilM IP HSH jL t I IVIMU0ULLUIV1 10 ly'fo' j Blanche. J5WELE.T The seven actresses who arc- wives. don't let this matter worry you in any way, as no harm has been or will be done if these same conditions have to occur once every year. I was aware that this work was being done and that the water was out of the ladder, and should have notified you of this fact In order that you might have been prepared to meet nny criticism that might arise regarding the same, so I beg your pardon for not having notified you of the above. Yours for success, V. p.. COLKMAX, . Hupt., Screens. Mr. Putnam closed the correspon dence with the folio wing communi cation to .Mr. Averill. Mr. K. R Averill, State Game Warden,. Portland, Ore. Dear Kd: Yours with Coleman's letter received. 1 was at Gold Itay October H and the fish ladders were both dry'and they said at the power house that both had been dry for over a week. No work was being done on either. There was no water in the Sav age Knpids fishway. It will be news to anyone that has fished in Koguc river as many years I have to learn that there are no runs of fish at this season of the year. Nearly every year there has been a large run of steelhead during the month of October and at the same time the advance guard of silverside salmon reached Gold Ray section and continued until December. There was of course no run this year, although a large run was reported ln the Gallce section, but with all fish ways closed, how could there he? What would Interest the pub lie that pays its coin for the privilege of fishing. Is why the fishways are not kept In order the yea r a round , and wh y a channel Is not blasted to insure access in times of low water? Are not game wardens and screen inspectors paid to look after the anglers' Interests in stead of the power companies ' nnd Irrigation districts? And while discussing this subject, can you inform me why the fish screens on irrigation ditches, as on Uttle lititte intake, are placed so far below the point of diver sion ns to Insure tho destruction of young fish spilled over the waste gate? As you are new oh the Job, I would suggest that you take a trip over southern Oregon by yourself and ascertain Just what good fishways and screens do. Sincerely Yours, G. PI'TNAM.
