PUBLIC SCHOOLS'
T TOLD BY
UPT.
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-

I'm very,
but when I'm

standing in the districts outside of
Medford and Ashland.
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.
