Kiwanls Hear County Head at Noon Meet r- State Funds Only Hope in Sav ing System, Declaration The public school of Oregon must have state aid. And before the coun ties obtain that aid they must get their own house in order, that they may spend the money In an intelli gent manner, Is the message brought to the Kiwanls club today by C. R. Bow man, superintendent of Jackson coun ty schools, at the luncheon at the Hotel Medford. Describing the school situation In Oregon, he showed that the public school is nearer collapse than most of It patrons realize, and that the state remains the only medium through which salvation can come. Under the prevailing laws in this state, only two pisr cent of the public school money comes from the state. The county pays 33 per cent and the school district 65 per cent. Prdperty Only Source. The district and county can raise the amount of money only by levying property taxes. Property la ovr- taxed now. Superintendent Bowman explained, so the .only possible in crease must come through the state, which has other means of raising finances. Under these other means. Superintendent Bowman listed the Income tax, utilities tax, sales tax and liquor tax. He stated that he was not advocating the passage of any one partlcu.br tax, but would not object if school money were derived from liquor traffic. If a dollar Is ta be dirtied up through liquor traffla, he explained, there remains no better way of cleaning It up again than converting It into educational chan nels. "Ninety-eight per cent of the mony spent in running the schools," Mr. Bowman repeated, "already conws from the property tax, and that's why we should have state aid." Would Cut Boards. Explaining bis statement that the counties must first get their houses In order, Mr. Bowman advocated adoption of the county school law, which would eliminate all but three boards In Jackson county, placing all schools outside of Medford and Ash land in one covnty district with competent board and superintendent at its head. To p rove the worth of the pla n he referred to Crook, Klamath and Lincoln counties, the three which have adopted the county plan. The mlllage in each has been reduced and their warrant indebtedness is also extremely low i when compared with other counties of the state. In Crook county, which now has a levy of 4.3 mills, the smallest number of pro tested warrants in the state is found, i In Klamath county, where the levy la 3.4 mills, there were no protested warrants outstanding within the dis tricts falling under the county plan, I last year. In Lincoln county, with a1 7.3 mills levy, which Is small com-; pared with the levy previously made, the warrant Indebtedness was re duced from 1032 to 1933. This county being the only one in the state with such a record. Unit Program Helps. The audit made In Jackson county In June, Mr. Bowman explained, showed that had in Is county been under the unit program there would have been no outstanding warrants outside of Medford and Ashland. And In addition there would have been money in the bank. As It Is, there were warrants totaling 140,000 out- "When I'm very, but when I'm bad, I'm better . . ."

In closing his address, Mr. Bowman urged the Klwanlans to stand by edu cation during the trying period and to lend support to the county school law, and to state aid of education. The need of state aid for education was also emphasized today by X. H. Hedrlck, superintendent of Medford schools, following his return from Sa lem, where he reported the legisla ture not yet down to business. Collapse Near. "The school problem." he stated. "Is to find something to keep the school system from complete collapse, which Is nearer than most people realize. "In several hundred districts con tracts have been signed providing for school only until mid-year. This number Includes the Medford dis trict. Interest in the legislature at this time centers In one thing, relief for schools. A number of things have been proposed, including Increase in the income tax and a little process ing tax on timber, but non? offer anything adequate. Figures show that the cost of operating schools In this state is $16,000,000 a year. Last June outstanding warrants totaled t6.000, 000. Therefore, anything offering less than four or five million dollars would not be adequate at all." The music for today's luncheon of the Kiwanls club was furnished by the high school girls' glee club, with Miss Harriet Baldwin, director. O. C. Lemmon, who returned from spending the week-end in Palo Alto, gave a short description of the California- Stanford game. ,, BIRTHS Born, to Mr. and Mrs. J. E.
