Oregon Grows, Schools Bulge, Purses Groan By BILL JENKINS DKX PUTNAM, superintendent of public instruction, who's In town for the teacher's meet here, dropped In yesterday to say hello and left me with a thought Over the future of Oregon. According to him. the number of pupils in Oregon schools will double in the next 10 years. This figure is based on a statewide survey made through the facilities of the state agencies and has proven reliable. I think the figure he quoted off hand was in the neighborhood of half a million children in schools at the end of that period. About double the number now atending. This will also take twice as much money to support, which will put the expense up In the I19O.OU0.UO0 bracket Looks like Oregon Is a pretty good place to live. At least enough people think so that thousands of them move to our state yearly. Percentage-wise Oregon is gaining taster in population than any other state in the Union. Maybe us old-timers picked Just the right spot on the universe to be brought Into the world. A LONQ this general line of what's going on in the stale it Is Interesting to note that the tourist trade in Oregon during 1949 was worth $110,000,000. Approximately 777.450 out-of-state cars crossed the borders with an average expendi ture of 1113.39 per car. That's quite a gain over 1941. the last prewar travel year when the rubberneckers spent only 51 million dollars. Out of that count for 1949. California cars accounted for more than half the total. Looks like our neighbors to the south like a change as much as we da I haven't got the Cali fornia figures, but I Imagine Ore gon ranks high on the list of visi tors to the Oolden State. INCLUDED In my files of odd facts that you probably won t re member is a little Item announcing the development of a new popcorn sack. This item, according to press releases. Is noiseless.
