JDEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON. THURSDAY, JUNE 14. 1931 PAGE THREE SUBSTITUTE BILL (Continued tiua ptigv one) school equalization district board. This board, after organisation, would take over all authority and duties heretofore vested In the district boundary board of each county. The county equalization fund would be made up of all monies accruing to the elementary school districts, Including the state elementary school fund, common school fund and taxes levied by the equalization board. Rate 800 Per Classroom The money thus received by the equalization board would be distrib uted under the provisions of a state minimum equalization level on a rate of 8800 per classroom unit. Twenty seven or less elementary pupils In average daily attendance would con stitute one classroom unit; 28 to 50 pupils two classroom units; 57 to 88 pupils, three units; 89 to 120 pupils, four units; 121 to 150 pupils, five units. For schools of more than 150 elemenary pupils the basis would be one classroom unit for each 30 pupils. The provision Is also made for Joint and suspended districts. Each district participating in the equalization fund would be required to maintain a standard elementary school and employ a teacher holding a valid Oregon certificate, Would Submit Budgets Districts would be required to sub mit budgets to the county equaliza tion board, which would have the right to recommend changes to pro mote efficient handling of school finances. The board would also have the right to determine minimum sal aries to be paid any teacher. Schools having less than 16 resi dent pupils would not be permitted to participate unless the county board was unable to arrange trans portation or some other means of caring for the pupils. In which case funds could be provided up to 75 per cent of the equalization level. If It is found that consolidation of districts Is justifiable and war ranted through transportation of pu pils, the county board , shall have authority to make such" consolida tion. The act would also provide that where districts are in sound finan cial condition and have no unpaid obligations, 1 that the levy against such districts shall be proportion ately lowered. No school district participating In the equalization fund shall be per mitted to erect a new building with out the authority of the county board. Some Not Affected School districts of the first class, and counties now operating under the county unit system, would not be affected by the act. The bill was submitted to the con. ventlon of the Oregon State Grange with the committee's recommenda tion for adoption, and resulted in considerable discussion. The general opinion of the Orange members was favorable, and it was voted to submit the proposed law to the next session of the state legislature. By CLAYTON V. BERN HARD Associated Press Staff Writer. ROSEBURG, Ore., June 14. (AP) Peter Zimmerman, Yamhill county state senator, would not be adverse to offering himself as an Independent candidate for governor of Oregon If he finds he is able to assist In the regulsr progressive program. Should he enter the race, Zimmer man admitted, It would be for the one purpose of putting over the "pro gressive program." He said "the regu lar progressives do not care for Zim merman, Gill, Burke or Thomas, whomever the candidate may be they want the program." , Program Is First. "The Individuals are only a means to an end," the Yamhill senator con tinued, "and should I enter the race It would be for the sole purpose of putting over that program.". The progressive program, as Zim merman sees It, and he is a member of the Oregon grange executive com mittee which Is in session here In connection with the annual meeting of the state grange, consists of three points: Taxes paid by those best able to pay, state-ownod transmission lines for municipal power to be delivered from Bonneville dam. and a state owned bank. Zimmerman's announcement that he would enter the gubernatorial con test as an Independent candidate If requests continue to be pressed upon him, followed a declaration by Ray W. Gill, master of the state grange, that GUI positively will not be a candidate. Grange leaders said he seeks, rather, to be elected hesd of the national grange organization. ' People l'nat lifted. "The people over the state are not satisfied," Zimmerman continued, 'with the major party nominees. While I was speaking at various parts HSR JEWELRY Jll Ll CUP CANDIDATE LAUNCHED A large crowd of yachting notables braved a drenching rain to watch the new racing sloop Rainbow take her initial dip at Bristol, R. I. The yacht was christened by Mrs. Harold S. Vanderbilt and is the latest candidate for international racing honors and the famed Amer ica's cup. (Associated Press Photo) of the state In favor of the state bank, I heard many comments to this effect." "I agree with many who have talked with me," he said, "that the time Is ripe for an Independent candidate to put over a program of the regular progressives. Whether or not I am the candidate, I shall devote all my time to that program." Dog Nightmare Caused Suit CLEVELAND.

Inquiring of First Lieutenant Wal lace S. Douglas, Med-Res., district surgeon, however, brought forth de nials that the lack of the dipterous insects had been the reason for such an order, or that he intended to keep an accurate count of mosquitoes Jn the Medford district.
