TRAINS WOULD STOP
WITHIN ONE MINUTE
Garretson Says TranspOrta-
ton Would Be Paralyzed
In that Time
By Carl D. Groat,

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Washington, Aug. 15.-lf strike of
the 10000 railway men of the four
brotherhoods should be called, the
transportation of the United States
would be paraiyzed within minute
after the order was issued, A. b. Gar
retson of the conductors brotherhood
declared today.
Garretson gave this idea of the eff
feet strike, when asked how long it
would take to tie up the railroads
should the negotiations now being con
ducted by President Wilson fail As
for the movement of the mails which
would be affected by a strike order,
Garretson said the railroads, not the
men. would be responsible.
at is the railroads that have the
contracts for carrying the mail" he
said. 81 do not see any reason why
we should supply men for this. The
roads would have to attend to it.
'Industrial necessity" Garretson
said, "is a plea that is the excuse for
every kind of injustice and oppression.
"It was the case in France some
wears ago when that nation suspended
its constitutional guarantees in order
to prevent general railroad strike.
This was perhaps the greatest violation
of constitutional rights in late years.
Whenever anything happens where the
money kinds do not want to give us a
fair share, they claim that it is an in
dustral necessity to continue in the
old state, but the history of civilization
has nroyen that il is not. ~

ARRANGE TO AVOID
MORE BUILDINGS
School Board Will Not Build
Two and May Get Around
Erecting the Other

TpOn the recommendation of super
intendent John w. Todd, the board OF
education at its meeting last evening
decided it would not be necessary to
erect extra buildings at the Grant and
Lincoln junior high schools. Although
plans and specifications had been
drawn by George NJ. Post and contract
ors had submitted bids, all bids were re-
iected.
Superintendent Todd, working with
Principal Miller of the Grant school ar
ranged a plan by which the principal s
office becomes class room and porch
on the north side enclosed for the prln.
cipal Is room. \ plan was also worked
out by Mr.. Todd and Principal Dur
ham, of the Lincoln school, by which
it will become unnecessary to build ON
the Lincoln school grounds.
Although Mr.. Todd also had prepared
plans whereby it will not be necessary
to build at the Washington junior high
school. no definite action was taken as
Principal Gannett is out of the city Ihe
opinion of the board and superintendent
seemed to be that following the plans
of Mr.. Todd. Mr.. Gannett could handle
the Washington school without the addi'
ton of extra rooms.
The bids submitted by contractors for
the three junior high school buildings
and which were all rejected as it was
believed they would be unnecessary un'
der Mr. Todd IS present plans were as
follows: A. J. Anderson, $500; Van
Patten & Son, s. ,069; L. C. Denison, $4,
55S; Siewert & Engstrom. S4,6l4; Dal'
rymple & Buley $4,772; j. Mollencop
$5,101.
Polk County Pupils SIS.
The piano tuning will be done the
coming year by Mr.. Roberts. He will
receive 81 for each of the IL pianos
those in the grades to be tuned twice a
year and the high school piano, three
times during the year. Superintendent
Todd, who recently bought new car
will be allowed $40 a month for gen
eral upkeep, the ear to be- used by Ny
Todd in the general supervision of the
! schools.
Pupils from Polk county will hereaft-
er pay S75 year. The county pays
$40 and the pupils will pay the balance
If the cost of education is finally fig
ured out less than the estimated SI5, the
pupils will receive the benefit
In figuring the cost of education
State Superintendent Churchill claims a
district should not figure in the cost
of the buildings, interest paid on bonds
or depreciation of buildings. In other
words, the cost of education is for
teachers, fuel and ianitors only. The
Salem board of education takes the
stand that in figuring the cost of edu-
eating pupil, the investment in
grounds and buildings, depreciation and
interest on bonds should he included.
The legal phase of this proposition has
been submitted to the board IS attorney,
George H. Bingham.
