About Schools Again
The Oregon Education Association recently pub
lished a booklet called fetter. Schools."
At the risk of becoming tedious (we wrote about
schools last week, too) we'd like to discuss it a bit
for the subject itself is far from tedious.
: It has a great bearing on our future, on our kids
and (emphatically) on our pocketbooks.
1X7ITH this preliminary, let us begin by saying the
J. booklet is shocking. Basically it is a propaganda
job, to convince the reader that better schools are our
best investment in f reedom social values, security, po
litical life and high living standards. It does a good
job, and is convincing.
What is shocking about it is the price tag it puts
on our government in general and our schools in par
ticular. ' - - V ;
The booklet is intended to show why this price tag
is so high, and that, as far as the schools are con
cerned, we're getting our money's worth.
IN OREGON- the total income of all residents in
1 195a was estimated at $2,763,000,000. v Out
of this nearly three billion dollars, taxes took nearly
one-third $896,500,000.
Of this, more than half went to the federal gove
ernment. The next largest tax-take went to the state
government; the next (and considerably smaller)
amount went to the schools, with cities, counties and
special districts bringing up the rear with relatively
small tax totals.
pROM here on, the discussion of governmental rev-
enues and expenditures, gets more complicated
but is shown clearly and graphically in the OEA pub
lication. ; , . ;" ' - l-'f: .-...''!
The gist of it is that state obligations are high, and
are getting higher The sources of tax money to sup
port these obligations are limited, (and pretty well
taken up. There are some inequalities in the tax struc
ture. -;..'' - , .- i ;
Most observers are well aware of these problems,
but the booklet does a good job of laying them on
the line. : :: r s
After this the booklet moves to the job the schools
are doing, and in convincing fashion points out that
Oregon, schoolwise, has done and is doing a good
job. It compares well with
in several different criteria of excellence.
THE booklet says '-The next 10 years will be critical
fn Hmrrnn oKrftlc " anrl if 'if os five rpasrms whvi
1. New births have been at high levels since 1947. Immi
gration continues strong.
2. School plant construction was neglected during the
depression, and later during World War. II. It has not
v-caught up. -, A .
t3.' Teacher supply both in numbers and qualifications
' remains too low.
4. Local districts will be heavily bonded, on the aver
age, by I960. : . : ' '' :
i 5. Competition for public funds with highways, public
' institutions, city and county governments, is keen and get -ting
keener., , . . ,.
The booklet, realistically, points out - that "our
schools' future remains closely tied to the world situ
ation. In the long run, our whopping defense budget
is the only possible source of major tax relief-. . . We
cannot safely base our actions on any assumed trend
in world affairs." It adds "We must decide on the type
of schools we want, and plan to provide them with
the means at hand, under existing conditions . . . Less
we should not attempt. Less we cannot afford to do."
The OEA pamphlet outlines specific suggestions
as to "What we can do to get better schools."
For citizens, it suggests: ;
1. Cooperate with local school boards in finding ; con-
structive solutions, to school problems; support the .boards
in carrying out the solutions.
- 2. Encourage outstanding citizens to run. for school '
boards; work for, their election; support them in office.
3. Join and support local PTAs. . -
4. Understand how schools are financed tax structure,'
v salary scales, debt problems, special levies, state-county-
local relationships. ' l:
5. Work through civic groups when joint effort is
needed. ' . ' . ' ::.:-.V;
It also has specific suggestions for the legislature,
for school boards and fof school people. All of them
are similar to those for citizens; all seek understand
ing and support for the schools in facing the problems
of the crucial years ahead. " '-',.,'.. eni ; vr
MOWHERE in the pamphlet is a specific suggestion
1 , for solution of the financial problem suggested.
This is probably -wise, from the OEA's point of
view, for the naming of specific forms of taxation
(i.e. sales tax, corporation excise tax, income tax,
property tax, etc.) often brings on, in certain groups,
reactions like those of a fyiU when stung with a
bandillero. . n r , v ;
Besides, it is not the province of school men to
propose taxes at" the state level that's the legisla
ture's job, and a tough one it is.
ji LL in all, the booklet does a good job of suggesting
"just how difficult it is going to be to follow the
mandate of the Oregon Constitution:
"The legislative assembly shall provide by law for
the establishment of a uniform and general system
of common schools." '
Summed up the booklet simply says that schools
are vitally important to the future of our-state and our
nation, but we're going to have to pay for them. And
it's going to be expensive. E.A. i -

Matter of Fact
PAYING FOR FRAUD
Rantroon. Burma Here in
Burma, which boasts the ablest
and most realistic government
of post : war
Asia, the. price
we are paying
for the fraud
ulence of our
Asian policy is
a l a r mingly
"evident. ?
The news
from home in
dicates a great,
sudden stir
about the Chi
nese Commu
Joseph-Alsep
nist threat to the offshore is
lands of Formosa. But why is
this? . . . -
In view of the record , of the
last two years, why on earth is
anyone ruffled by the Commu
nist seizure of Yikiangshan?
There was-a first Munich in
the form of the Korean truce.
There was a second Munich in
form of the surrender in Indor
China. There was a transnarent
fake in the form of the toothless
Manila treaty And in thetreaty;
with Chiang Kai-shek,' specific
ally excluding the offshore is
lands from American protection,'
there was the equivalent of an
engraved invitation to the Com
munists to seize those islands.
In ; the ..face of this record
of retreat and appeasement, peo
ple at home are surprised by
the -natural, the downright in
evitable results. , Thev are sur
prised because the retreat has
been masked by a loud, huckster-
ish drumfire about" "unleash
ing ' Chiang Kai-shek," "recap
tured initiatives," "massive re?
taliation," strengthened out
posts," and the like.-
The bad joke that the Bur
mese and the Indians, who des
perately desire to avoid an un
necessary war, have been just
as much deceived:' by the1 loud
talk as our own people. . The
loud ; talk in Washington has
made these Asians think Amer-i
icah policy warlike when it has
really been the. precise reverse.'
in Burma we are blamed, not
for. appeasement, which can ' be
justly charged against us. but
for aggressiveness, of which we
are conspicuously guiltless. " '
. ' : ; ;
TF appeasement was 1 needful,
f.we ought at least to have tried
to reap, its natural benefits and
reinsure it as best we could. In
particular, - we ought ; to have
told the ' Indians and Burmese,
"Well, we are going to follow
your ideas about the right con-,
duct of affairs in Asia, so let's
get together to cope with the re
sulting situation.'?' r:

WASHINGTON, the senate
foreign relatons and armed

the' resolution giving President
Eisenhower full war powers to
defend Formosa and its outposts.
The vote was 26 to 2 with
Republican Senator William
Langer of N 6 r t h Dakota and
Independent (preparing to turn
Democrat) Senator Wayne Morse
of Oregon voting AGAINST the
resolution.'
WHY DID Langer and Morse
vote as they did?
A Tm quite sure this .is the rea
son: . -4V.
They figured that by VOTING
NO they'd get into the headlines.
By voting YES they'd be lost in

caused by the loud talk in Wash
ington was one cause of this de
velopment But there have been
other causes. There has been hp
American ambassador in Delhi
for many, months. There - has
been none here in Rangoon since
last July. . -
The junior diplomats who are
holding the fort here are good,
hard working men,' who - show
all the worst effects of treat
ment given to the foreign serv
ice in the last two years. The
American representation in Ran
goon today has the approximate
dynamic effectiveness of an old
wet washrag. -
-And this is true despite a dan
ger and an opportunity that
should mtensely ;preoccupy the
American policy makers..
The danger, can be simply de
fined. With no one to speak up
for our. side, Burma has slipped"
since last year. The big power,
China, has begun to convince
the little power, Burmay that her
sweet words can really be re
lied on. Men like Premier U Nu,
and his two remarkable chief
collaborators, U Ba Swe and U
Yyaw Nein, are not really de
ceived; but they are beginning
to be immobilized.
The opportunity can be equal
ly simply defined. It' is the op
portunity to mobilize . Burma.
rThe appeasements of the last
two years have produced, a new
situation in' Asia. American pow
er is no longer sufficient to hold
the balance true. The political
and moral authority of the free
Asian, nations, and in particular
Burma . and ;india,:; are ; desper;
ately needed to prevent a gen
eral? collapse. That is another
result of our recent policy which
it is high time: to face .squarely.
THE opportunity is in Burma;
because- here in Burma the
leadership sees the position in
Asia- more clearly than in. Del
hi, : The danger to Burma of a
Communist triumph in Thailand
can never be forgotten by the
government , in Rangoon. Tliere
fore it is here, if anywhere, that
the ' needed effort can be organ
ized to hold Cambodia and Laos,
the approaches to Thailand,
which how have, for the1 long
run, at least as much importance
as the :. Formosa, approaches - or,
indeed, as Formosa itself. v , .. ;
The last two years policy; of
retreat may weU have been de
sirable. Yet the wise command
er, when -! he retreats, is . carer
ful to organize a new defense
line for the new position he has
occupied, i Our ; policy. - makers
have instead .been too busy pro
testing thathey really were noj
retreating, and the task of or
ganizing One is getting harder
by the month. ;-. ' ; ; ;

News
Screwballs like Langer - and
Morse just HAVE to get into the
headlines. Otherwise, they'll be
lost in the shuffle.
QENATOR Morse was pleased
' w i t h the headlines he got.
So he went out to get some more.
Dispatches from Washington re
port:
"It was Morse who first assert
ed that the resolution (to give
the' President full - war powers
to handle the Formosa situation)
would AUTHORIZE A PRE
VENTIVE WAR.
"That phrase has since become
the rallying cry for the opposi
tion to the President s request.''
?????? ? ?
So far as I am concerned, in
this ' grave crisis that concerns
the future of pur country and
the lives of our. people, I'd rather
trust President Eisenhower and
the serious and sincere men (in
our nation and elsewhere) who
are , standing at his side ; and
working with, him than screw
balls; and headline-hunters like
Langer and Morse. , .

Another Cease Fire

There is alio, however, the
