POSTAGE IC NEW POSTAGE STAMP This is the design of a new four cent postage stamp which the Post Office department will issue to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the first treaty to promote mutual understanding and good will be tween Japan and the United States. The stamp, which fea tures a view of the Washington monument with sprays of Japanese cherry blossoms around Its base, was designed by Miss Gyo Fujikawa, an American artist of Japanese parent age now living in New York. The stamps will be printed In black and pink and will be placed on "first day" sale In Washington Sept. 26, the date of the expected arrival of Crown Prince Akihlto and his consort on a good will tour of America. (UPI Telephoto) Interim Group Is Studying School Finance Problem (Editor's nott: This it ihe first of several articles deal ing with the studies now under way by the Oregon legislative interim commit tee on education, of which the author it a member. Mn. Nye ii state representa tive from Jackson county, a former member of the Med ford school board, and a former official in the stale school boards association.) By MRS. EVELYN NYE How is our educatioi.al dol lar being spent? What portion of the cost of education in Oregon should be assumed by the State? How should state funds for the support of edu cation be distributed to local school districts? What is the quality of education in Ore gon and how effective Is the administration of our school program? These are some of the ques tions that have caused grave concern to many people in Oregon. The legislature is keenly aware of this concern and in response to it has authorized the Interim Com mittee on Education and di rected It o attempt to find answers to these questions. Subcommittee Study In order to carry out this directive the committee has been divided Into two sub committees. The first sub committee is working to de vise a long-range policy of financing public education In Oregon, define state and local responsibilities and suggest specific distribution programs. The second subcommittee has instituted a research study to determine the quality of education being offered In small as compared to largo districts, the effectiveness of administrative practices I n the recruitment and use of teaching personnel. In other words, this second subcom mittee is attempting to deter mine whether or not increas ed funds from the state will automatically produce better education, or whether there are improvements which could be made to ensure more effective use of these funds. In this report to the people of Jackson county, 1 shall con fine myself to discussion of the findings which the com mittee has made to date In the field of finance. The state is presently contributing, from slate Income lax funds, $52 million per year, or about one third of the total state educa tion budget of $174 million, the balance being raised at the county and district levels out of property tax levies. Increase Seen Based on the Increase In costs over the last several years and projected enroll ments for the next six years, it is reaonable to believe that the total budget lor Uie yew 1068-67 will be In the neigh borhood of $234 million. The State Department of Educa tion has furnished records which disclose that over the past 15 years, increased en rollment is only one of the factors which have made for higher total school bills. Of Ihe increase, 18.14 per cent can be charged to larger en rollments. 47.14 per cent to depreciation of the dollar, and 34.63 per cent to increases in teachers' salaries, adoption of retirement programs, reduc tions in the number of pupils taught by a teacher, changes In curriculum and added services, more adequate li brary facilities, plus extra curricular activities and the lengthened school year. Two-Fold Objective The Interim Committee's objective is two-fold: First, to assure, through adequate state support, that a good minimum program of education can be offered in every district of the state; and second, to assure that the cost of that education shall be dis tributed as equitably as pos sible with relief to those property-tax payers who are presently carrying an insup portable burden. The committee believes that both the present level of state support and the manner of its distribution fall to achieve these objectives. It is agreed that a new formula must be devised to replace the present jerry-built system which was the result of the compromise effected by the 1D57 legisla ture and which has, In many Instances, only compounded the inequities It was supposed to correct. In later articles I hope to report Ihe progress of the committee in reaching a satis factory formula to recommend to the next legislature and also the results of the research study on quality of education.

(UPI Telephoto) Small Worlds Around Us By Lynn M. Watkins The Catbird Rivals Mocking Bird for Versatility The plaintive meowing of a catbird somewhere back in the tangled thicket revives happy memories to those fortunate adults who spent some of their childhood in rural America. It's easy to see why the bird received its common name, for the call is startlingly catlike. The cat-call, however, is not the true song o( this well known bird, for this Is one of the sweetest singers in all of birddom. Many farm boys nev er suspected the sweet song coming from the unseen sing er in the thicket, was the song of the catbird; for like its close 1 relative, the brown thrasher. It has the ability to imitate other bird songs. Mocking Bird's Talent It even possesses the talent of the mocking bird in being able to make up a song as it goes along. Frequently the cat bird will perch Itself on a tree limb and experiment with various notes and trills. Occa sionally it will mix in a few cat-calls. The catbird can even dupli cate the accomplishments of an expert ventriloquist, "throwing it voice" so that the sound seems lo come from va rious directions. In its wide repertoire of songs this bird rivals the mocking bird and, like the mocker, delights in imitating sounds It hears. The catbird prefers the denser thickets, but can be found often near estates, or even near woodlots and grassy meadows. It migrates south during the colder months of the winter, traveling as far as Central America. But come the spring and the little gray bird with the rounded tail and the black throat patch, wings Its tireless way back to the summer nesting grounds. Prefers Lonely Thickets The catbird prefers the lone ly woodland thickets for its home and its place to sing. It would seem that such a sweet singer should perform its con certs where admiring listen, crs could enjoy the song, in stead of secreting Itself alone i in a tangled thicket. Wonderful providers, the catbird parents scour the woodlands for choice Insect morsels to feed the young. In asmuch as these birds feed ex clusively on insects and in sect eggs, they make desirable residents In any neighbor hood.
