In fact, speakers at a recent meeting of the Port land school board submitted fig ures showing that Portland high school students get "nearly twice as much math as the! " national average.

Well, our world is chang ing. There was a time when sim ple arithmetic (addition, sub traction, multiplication and di vision) was mathematical equip ment enough for the average person. II one ran a store, or a little factory, simple arithmetic enabled him to know how much his customers owed him, how much he owed his creditors, what his inventory amounted to at the end of the year, how much he took in, how much it cost him to do business, and how much he made or lost over a given period of time. That was a time when we were a nation or smaii snop- keeoers and small manufactur- HAT DAY. is past. .We're now up to our ears in : big busi ness, science including re- searchand engineering are b?g factors in Tnodenrprogress. Pure science and the practical appli cation of pure science by. train ed engineers call for higher ma thematics in a big way. .". . . .. It isn't just an individual ques tion ;of making a better living. Our. national future , is at stake It takes scientists and engineers to keeD uo with the modern world. There are disturbing stor- 5 to the effect that Russia is training more of them, than; we are. . The reason that is disturbing is that if Russia trains more and better scientists and.,, engineers than we do Russia wilk eventual ly PULL OUT AHEAD OF US That is why the statement that in the Portland public schools mathematics is playing a bigger role than in the country gener ally is interesting. If it is true, Portland is to be congratulated. Low-Level Highway Appears To Be Safe ' From Flood Water Salem U.R)R. H. Baldock, state highway engineer, said to day - the water-level Columbia river highway appeared to De safe from flood waters this spring unless a possible 195S flood overshadows the record breaking high water of 1894. In reply to Gov. Elmo Smith's suggestion that all state agencies be alert to potential flood dan gers this spring, . Baldock said that conditions were such that the 1948 flood can easily be e ceeded and possibly the 1894 record equaled. But barring a catastrophe, Bal dock said it looked v like U. S. highway 30 would not be awash. In laying the grade line in 1920 along the bank of the Snake i-iver in Malheur county, Bal dock said the elevation was placed two feet above 1894 high water. : "I followed the same policy on the new water-level grade along the Columbia river, based on the assumption that where water has risen once it will eventually rise again : in the long cycles," Bal dock explained. . , ,: He said the 1948 Columbia river flood came within about three feet of the 1894 flood.

A TASTY BIT FOR THE COFFEE HOUR PURITY BMIERy Hot Cross J BUNS OW (shudder!!!) back to .pol itics. By a vote of 93 to two, the once dignified senate of "the United States passes : a patch work election-year farm bill put together by political farmers in tent on raising a big - crop of votes in the farm states. It couldn't have been meant seriously as a sincere effort (however misguided) to improve the long-term economic . status of the farmer, because if some thing slips and it becomes a law its effect will be to build up ev en more staggering surpluses at a time when our agricultural surpluses are already huge and unwieldy.' As long as these vast surpluses hang over the mar kets of the future American ag riculture will be in a precarious position. I suppose the strategy is to batup a bill that Ike will have to veto; The political farmers will then shrug their shoulders and say: "We tried to do our duty by. the farmer, ; but the President just wouldn't let us. So let' him. and Benson stew in their own juice." , . ' Americans Funny, London Paper Says London (U.R) The London Times said today that Adlai Ste venson's defeat by Sen. Estes Ke-fauver- in Minnesota "proves once more that 'The Americans are funny, people'." . Tte Times said in an editorial that Stevenson is "one of those American leaders whose stock probably stands higher on this side of the Atlantic than it does in his own country." "His liberal pronouncements, at the time of the last presi dential election, found their echo in Europe," the Times said. "More recently he impressed those whom he met on his tour of .the world with his balanced and sensible judgment. Never theless, it is possible for an American to have all those quali ties and lack appeal to his own people. "That charge has been made from time to time, antf for that, among other reasons, his heavy and unexpected defeat: in the Minnesota primaries must be taken seriously." Doctor Indorses Birth Check With Paint Brush Palmyra, Ind. (U.R) When Mr. . and Mrs. Wilson Heuser were expecting their baby, they bet Dr. J. M. Johnson double or nothing it would be a girl. In eight years of practice, Dr. Johnson has delivered 700 ba bies, two thirds of them boys. When their son arrived, the Heusers gave Dr. Johnson a 6- by-3-foot check painted on ply wood. It took two men to carry the check to the bank, and Dr. Johnson had to indorse it with a paint brush, v I CAN'T, help wondering if the political farmers haven't mis judged the caliber of the Amer ican farmer. In. that connection I'd like to quote a Minneapolis business man with whom I- was talking awhile back. I asked him how Minnesota farmers feel about Secretary Benson. He an swered: ' . "I think anyone will have to admit that as long as high sup port subsidies are provided and paid the grain farmers, in the Minneapolis area which includ es Minnesota and the Dakotas will take them and go on grow ing all the grain they can under the acreage restrictions.- - "But there is much admira tion for Benson among intelli gent farmers in our area. They think he is an honest - man ; who is doing his best to .rescue agri culture from the mess in r which it finds itself as a result of con tinuing high subsidies for the so- called basic farnv crops long af- Be safe.. .buy faster... foolproof RED STAR YEAST Big Fresh Cake AND' - ctive Dry FRESH by BORDEN ityTitt favorites Chowders W THEM BOTH! o i
