TEACHER DELEGATES
Lily Darby, Wilbur Robinette,
Arnold Gralapp and Wyatt Pad
gett returned Sunday from Port
land where they attended a
meeting of the representative
council of the Oregon State
Teachers' association.
The delegates reported that
educational problems confront
ing Oregon were discussed dur
ing the two-day session. Teach
er shortage and the resulting
lowering of educational stand
ards throughout the state was
the topic of primary importance
' and held the attention of the
representatives for most of the
session.
It was felt that the only solu
tion at present is a substantial
salary increase throughout the
state and the adoption of some
form of social security for teach
ers. . Wyatt Padgett presented a
suggestion made by Frank Jen
kins of the Herald-News for con
sideration by the council, that
the entire tax structure of Ore
gon needed overhauling and that
the teachers through their or
ganization should assist in that
overhauling.
' Mrs. Una B. Inch of Jackson
county was elected vice presi
dent and Frank Thomas of
Grants Pass was elected trustee.

mittee it will boost to an esti

Over half the new bill's total,
$288,626,582 was ear-marked
for the nsvy, whose high-ranking
officers disclosed during
closed door hearings that secret
tests are underway on new sky
giants that may dwarf in size
the big B-29 Superfortresses now
filling Tokyo with terror.
Jn addition to tne new money
for the navy, the committee rec
ommended that the service be
allowed to use' $52,500,000 of
surplus funds now available.
Most of the navy's funds were
set aside for the bureau of yards
and docks.
Also approved were a number
of items, aeerceatine S17.559.-
000, for the collection of statis
tics to be available to govern
ment and business for program

lieved contacts should be made
with the states concerning their
plans before an initial appropria

the committee voted the veter

THE PASSENGER MILE
The universal unit of traveler transporta
tion is the passenger mile. Last year Great
Northern trains rolled up the astronomical
total of 1 billion 108 million passenger
miles equivalent to transporting one
person that distance.
And, patronage in 1944 likely will eclipse
last year's record I
Many things make possible Great North
ern's history-making volume of passenger
miles: maintenance of roadbed, bridges
and signals . . . hundreds of locomotives
and cars . . . thousands of men in hundreds
of jobs along the line, in yards, shops and
terminals.
All are co-ordinated to make Great North
ern passenger service dependable and
passenger miles comfortable and safe.
