VANCOUVER, WMh.i Dec. 37.
(AP) Howard W. Oxley, national
director of Civilian Conservation
Corpa education, aald lome 7000
men are leaving CCC camps weekly
for places in the work-a-day world.
"CCC educational advlaem hav
probably the toughest educational
jobs in the world." he told camp
educator of this district at a con
vention here.
Hp an Id the Job placement Indi
cated the young men in the camps
were "finding themselves" and fit
tins into work of their liking.
By April the CCC enrollment will
diminish from 325,000 to 300,000.
O.xley predicted.
Kenneth Holland of Washington,
D. C, representing the American
council of education, compared the
ccc movement, with youth campa
of Europe,
"The American CCC campi have
the best equipment and facilities of
any work campa and are the moat
democratic in their administration."
he said. "German camps have de
veloped into centers of propaganda
devoted to ideal of the Hitler eco
nomic concepts."
He adviiwd continuance of free
and open discussion and the many
sided education program in camps.
Some 25.000 men who probably
never would have entered school,
have learned to read and write in
the camps, Oxley said. Of 12,000 re
maining illiterate. 11.000 are en
rolled for achoollng. Advanced edu
cation and vocational education also
Is offered for those with high school
or college educational background.

his doctrines of change against tra
dition, and gropes for a stable phil
osophy of life.
"The avalanche of theories and ex
perimental movements sweeps all to
which past generation have attached
stability and Importance, into the
scrap heap. Desperately then youth
appeals, 'what has real value?'
"As we face life, we can name cer
tain things that we can count upon
as certain. I recognize that change
has brought man to his present level
of progress, but as long as human be
ings are human beings, certain char
acteristics of mind will not change.
I shall give a partial listing of these
constants.
First Is God
"First and above all, there Is God
the sophists have never reasoned
him away.
"There ts the famtly. It Is a fix
ture, and the monogamous family
has ever had the stamp of society's
approval.
"There Is patriotism, or the love of
habitat. It Is as old as time Itself,
natural and ineradicable, though Its
abuses cause trouble,
"There is the ownership of private
property, which Is founded on the
Instinct of self preservation. In spite
of all the crimes which have been
committed In Its name, the owning
of private property will remain a
fundamental human character 1st ic.
"There la education. It is instinct
ive, founded on innate curiosity and
the quest of the beautiful. The pro
gress of our race depends on Its per
manence and development.
"Sixth and last, there is the lovs
of liberty. It is instinctive In human
beings. We may drift sway to dicta
torship or some other governmental
form for a time: the Declaration of
Independence, the Bill of Rights, the
Magna Charts, may become trite and
unpopular for a time but always
human beings will return to the
quest for liberty."
PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 27. (AP)
The Oregon State Teachers' associa
tion. In session here today, urged the
legislature to enact a new form of
taxation for the support of schools
"In order to relieve real property
from sn appreciable amount of the
burden It now bears."
The teachers also urged free text
books for high school ss well as for
grade school students.
Mrs. Lucy E. Rodgers of Heppner.

president and will automatically sue

IN THE HEART
Portland schools, was re-elected trus
tee for the Portland district, and
B. D. Towler of Astoria was chosen
for the third district trusteeship.
The teachers recommended that
high school teachers be required to
have five years instead of four years
of college training; that grade school
teachers have four years of college or
normal training: advanced study
either In school or by extension
courses st least once every five years
for all future life certificates for
teacher; one year of cadet teaching
during the academic training for both
high school and elementary certifi
cates, and special courses in adminis
tration for administrative certificates
for superintendents snd principals.
Favor Tax Study
A atudy of taxation possibilities
was authorised.
Renewed effort toward consolida
tion of smsll rural school districts
was pledged, following a report that
2200 separata and almost Independ
ent school districts In the state have
overlapping and duplicating func
tions snd staffs, with small schools
maintained for few pupils.
The movement toward organization
of the entire system of public educa
education in Oregon under an ap
pointed atate, board of education,
functioning through a commissioner
or other executive, won support.
DENTAL OFFICE
City police reported today that the
office of Dr. W. C. Thompson, Med
ford dentist with offices In the Med
ford building, was entered either
Christmas ere or Christmas night,
and ransacked. Loot consisting of
$20 worth of old gold, $6 worth of
new plate, gold, and 8 worth of den
tal solder wes taken, police said. The
burglary was not discovered until
Thursday morning when the Janitor
of the building found the door of
the office standing wide open.
The bunglarly brings to three the
total of entries over the Christmas
holiday, the house of William Vaugh
an. 523 East Main street, having been
entered and between 925 and 130
and a shotgun taken, and the home
of W. H. Walker. 52 Ross eourt. hav
ing been entered, a burglar forcing
Walker to get out of bed and produce
his wallet with 20 in it.
Chief of Police Clatous McCredle
today stated that the three burglaries
looked to be the work of separate
persons, although the Durry of porch
entries appears to be the work of
one man. McCredie said. "I wish I
could talk to everyone in town. In
private. That would be the only way
to catch these burglars. Sooner or
later someone Is going to catch a
burglar in his home and kill him, and
ehtn our burglar problem will be
sot red. Until then, the best advice
I can give Is for everyone to lock
their doors at night, and not to leave
the horns unguarded."
The police record today shows that
petty thieves are also stil busy. Dr.
Harold Glllis reporting that his med
ical kit containing valuable Instru
ments had been stolen out of nls
parked car near the Diamond cafe,
Christmas night. A stamp collection
valued at 600, and a stethoscoue
were also taken.
Harry Hawk. 1115 West Tenth street,
reported that a truck wheel and tire
had been stolen from his home night
before last.
SEVEN ARE DENIED
PORTLAND. Dec. 27. -(P) -The Ore
gon liquor control commission denied
applications today for seven more
liquor store agencies in Portland and

ath district attorney, over suggested
improvements In handling the sale
of beer at Chlloquln, on the Klamath

Hts opinion declared It was obvious
"any statute which attempt to au
thorize them is In violation of the

URUGUAY SEVERS
RELATIONS WITH
SOVIEHUSSIA
Action Seen As Part of Pre
caution In Rumored
Armed Rebellion Inspired
by Communist Forces
MONTEVIDEO. Uruguay, Dec. 27.
(AP) The Republic of Uruguay
today broke relations with Soviet
Russia.
The Uruguayan foreign offtce
handed passports to Alexander Mln
kin, the Russian minister. It also
gave passports to the other members
of the Russian legation.
The action was regarded as part
of strong precautionary measures
against rumors of an armed rebel
lion inspired by communist sources.
Uruguay had been the only South
American nation to recognize the
government at Moscow. The break
was largely a ramification of the
communist- uprisings in Brazil, Uru
guay's neighbor, last month.
Brazil Blames Russians
A Brazilian government communi
cation charged that, instructions to
leaders of the abortive November re
bellion were dispatched from Monte
video. The chief instigator of the upris
ings was alleged to be Lulz Carlos
Presters. associated with the Third
Internationale.
The Brazilian government com
plained that the Soviet legation
Itself was Implicated In the sending
of revolutionary 1 Instructions to
Brazil.
Its communication followed num
erous recent accusations by South
American politicians and press that
widespread communistic agitation
was being directed from Montevideo.
Raids and troop movements ac
companied the Uruguayen govern
ment's activities in the face of re
ports of an Imminent insurrection
within its own borders, but nothing
was found Immediately to confirm
the rumors.
Danger Tnurlt Traffic
Reliable sources attributed the re
volt rumors to an sttempt to harm
the great tourist traffic which flows
at this season from Argentina to
Uruguay.
Uruguay has been not only the
sole South American nation to have
diplomatic relations with Soviet Rxis
sia, but also the only one with which
the U. S. S. R. has had direct trade
relations.
Argentina, under the late profes
sional president Josef Urlbwrtl, ex
pelled the headquarters of the- South
American division of the Amtorg
Trading corporation from Buenos
Aires on the grounds that it was in
volved In extremist agitation.
The trading corporation has main
tained its South American center
since then in Montevideo.
THREE PAY FINES ON
Erwin E. Reese and Thomas Pu
son, Jr., were each fined (1 and costs
of $4 50 In Justice court this morn
ing on their pleas of guilty to chargai
of driving an automobile without a
driver's permit. Puson told the court
that he had been In Alaska until re
cently and had not yet procured an
Oregon permit.
Walter C. Degernes, charged with
driving an automobile while under
the influence of intoxicating liquor,
entered a plea of guilty yesterday. He
was fined iioo and costs, sentenced
to 30 days In Jail, and ordered to sur
render his driver's permit for one
year, today he paid S2fi on the fine
and agreed to pay the balance at the
rate of 120 periodically until the debt
is ended. The court suspended tht
Jail sentence pending regular pay
ments on the fine.
