The Education Authority Criticizes County Superintendent System Salem - IUPII - An educator from the University of Ore gon today strongly criticized the present old system of county school superintendents and said it should be replaced with "intermediate" units that cross county lines. i Dr. Carl L. Huffaker, pro fessor emeritus of education at the university, testified be fore the Legislative Interim Committee on Education. The committee is considering recommending an overhaul of some kind in county school unifs to the 1963 legislature. "County lines are absolute' ly meaningless" as far as local school district boundaries are concerned, Dr. Huffaker said GRADUATION CARDS When youcreewwiih to lend (he wry bett Cwam' 217 Maln 01TOII1 9 Medford He is a national authority in lies in Marion county but many phases of education.

Encouraging Wall Street reports came too late to effect the London market. over the idea of changing their authority or functions, and Huffaker took note of this. He said many of the cur rent activities of county school superintendents "seem to be groping for something to jus tify existence." Huffaker said intermediate units could cross county lines at will and by doing so could provide services to local schools in a variety of coun tiesserving them on the basis of geographical needs, and unhindered by county bound aries. He said each intermediate unit should have its own board, and that board's mem bers should be chosen by the boards of all local school dis tricts within the unit, and made up of various local school board members. The interim committee seems convinced that "some thing" must be retained as a service unit between the local school and state level; if not a county school superintendent, then something like it.

J 30 M Stock Market Tickers Trailing New York -HOT- With open ings in many key issues de laved, brokers reported that huy orders were overtaking their facilities, and high speed tickers were falling far be hind the trading floor. Prices were sharply higher on the New York Stock Ex change today in a massive continuation of Tue.sdav's ral ly. Near the close of the first hour a few pivotal issues were off from their starting highs by as much as a point or two but still showing sizable gains on the day in most instances. Standard & Poor's reported that its Index at 10:45 a.m. showed a gain of 0.90, indi cating a rise of $4.7 billion in paper values since Friday's close.

U.S. Steel K-. and l.ukens 4'4. the New Jfork Stock Ex change in the first hour today more i'an wiped out the re maining losses from Monday's disastrous decline, worst since the crash of 1929. Whether the trend would continue remained to be seen as trading progressed at the same hectic pace which marked Tuesday's dealings when 14,750,000 shares ex changed hands in the greatest volume since Oct. 29, 1929. An estimated $13.5 billion of Monday's paper value loss of $20.8 billion was recovered Tuesday in a wave of buying orders that continued today after the Memorial Day holi day. Stock indexes after the first hour today showed values of $7.65 billion above Tuesday's close. Trading in the first hour was 1.760,000 shares, only 20,000 behind the same period ' Tuesday, and the high speed ticker tapes were running at least 35 minutes late. Prices generally were well ! above Tuesday's close, al-, though as the morning pro-1 grossed some fell below to-, day's opening. For example, American Telephone and , Telegraph, the nation's most ' widely held stock, started the 1 day at $115. up $6.50, but I later fell off to $112.50. Shortly before 8 a.m. (PST) E. I. du Pont de Nemours & I Co., which has been under court order to divest itself of stock holdings in General Mo tors, announced it would start doing so by distributing a half share of General Motors for each share held of Du Pont. A 1 little more than a third of the total GM holdings would be involved in the first action which Du Pont said would be j the only one this year. ! Street Catching Up Wall Street busied itself behind the scenes during Wednesday's Memorial Day 1 holiday catching up on the ! bookkeeping hangover from the two most frenzied days of trading since the crash of '29. Students of the market would not commit themselves to declarations that the bot tom had been reached and that the selloff was over. But there was optimism nonethe less. Europe Shares Recover Spurring that along was the recovery on European ex changes, where shares tum bled Tuesday in the aftermath of the close-to-the-record sell off of 9.3 million shares on the New York Stock Exchange Monday. European exchanges, open Wednesday, followed Tuesday's late rebound in New York and shot upward. London, Frankfurt, Zurich and Amsterdam all posted climbing prices. The Dow-Jonrs industrial average for 30 industrial stocks stood at 603.96 as trad ing began today, up a spec tacular 27.03 points from the Monday close. The amount Involved, cording to Brduks, was difference between what could have been made by sell ing molybdenum and the $1, 200,000 the government re ceived for cancelling the con tract. The government hopes to show later that a government consultant who also worked for Climax had a hand in de- ac- ed the then defense mobilizer, . .he 'Gordon Gray, and perhaps: members 01 me tiseimuwc. cabinet, before he permitted cancellation of the contract. Thirty eight million pounds of molybdenum still were due for delivery to the government when the contract was can celled. Brooks said he drafted a memorandum at the time which indicated hat Climax cisions which benefited the ! stood to reap additional prof company. . 1 its of $4.56 million because Brooks testified that the key j the market price for molyb decision in the cancellation denum had risen since the negotiations was made Oct. j government contracted for it. 1 11, 1957, by Franlin G.
