SOME POINTERS ON
NEW SCHOOL LAWS
Most important Change Re-
quires Teachers To Keep
Contracts

Besides a few matters that received
the attention of the late legislature,
several laws were passed effecting
schools, all of which will become ct
feetive May 2l, 1917.
Every school district in Oregon will
hereafter be obliged to he in session
eight months of each year. Formerly
it was six months.
Every legal citizen may vote at the
election for school directors and school
clerks Formerly there was property
qualification. Now there is none. The
voter must have resided 80 days in the
district before the election. This change
does not affect the qualifications of u
legal voter for bond elections or in vot-
ing tax. Ii was passed especially TO
give the renter of a farm who generally
had a fair sized family something to
say in the election of school directors.
Training is Optional.
Military training in the high schools
was provided for and credits given for
service. 1t was provided that each
school should pay for its instructor!
Military training is not compulsory, as
it may be taken up just as any study
While the legislators favored military
training in the high schools, it failed te
provide any funds by which a school,
could secure equipment. Hence the wo
men who are SO fearfully alarmed that
military training and military ideas
may be instilled in the minds of the
young, need not worry There are M
muskets or equipment available
! Hereafter there will be no talk OF :

PLEDGES RUSSIANS
WILL CONTINUE WAR

Washington, June 26.-In another
stirring address today at the capitol
Ambassador Bakhmetieff, head of
Russia's diplomatic mission, gave a
solemn pledge that the Russian peo-
pie and army, convinced that a
separate peace would mean the tri-
umph of German autocracy," are pre-
pared to fight ON beside America un-
til the world has been made safe for
democracy.
The ambassador spoke before the
senate and was given a reception al
most as enthusiastic as that accorded
him Saturday In the house. On no
previous occasion since the war be-
gan has senatorial reserve been cast
so completely aside. At the conclu-
sion OF the address a resolution was
adopted by unanimous consent ex-
pressing the senate's qualification ov-
or the stand of the newest democ-
racy.
Russia rejects with indignation
any idea OF separate peace" said the
envoy. Striving for lasting peace
based on democratic principles es-
tablished by democratic will, the
Russian people and army are rally
ing their forces around the banners
of freedom. Russia wants the world
to be safe for democracy. To make
it safe means TO have democracy rule
the world"
Many of the rumors of internal
dissension in Russia, Mr.. Bakhme-
tieff said, grew out OF misunder-
standing OF the great changes tax
ing place In the whole fabric of the
government to transform 1t to DEM
ocratic standards. He pleaded for
patience and confidence that these
changes, although they might take
time, would be worked out success
fully In the end.

SENATE COMMITTEE
PUTS BAN ON BEER


Washington, June 27.-Beer was
given the knockout by the senate
agriculture commission today.
After a subcommittee had left 1t
at the feet of the president for de-
cision as to its life or death, the full
committee today killed it, TO z, in
considering the food bill.
The full committee then adopted
the house "bone-dry" amendment to
the bill, adding a proviso that will
enable the president to spare pro
duction OF wines IL deemed neces.
sary for conservation of perishablt
foodstuffs. The vote was 8 to z.
The effect of this action, II ap
proved by the senate, will be to ere
ate absolute prohibition of beer ant
spirits manufacture during the wal
in this country.
The president will have the power
to commander all spirits in bond
thus eliminating that beverage en-
tirely IL he desires.
Wines alone, under the provision
agreed to by the committee, coulC
be INDUCED in by the American peo
pie to quench a thirst for stimu
lants,
However, as one committeeman
told group of persistent beer lob
byists today, there is a long legis
lative road to travel before tn,
measure becomes a law"

REGULAR ARMY FIRST TO
SEE WAR SERVICE IN FRANCE


Washington, June 26.--More than
half a million men have volunteered
in the American army and navy dur
ing the period Of less than three
months that has elapsed since war
was declared to exist.
The army, navy ana national guard
/ represented an aggregate strength of
! little more than 100000 men when
the war resolution was adopted. To-
day between 100000 and 100000
are enrolled in the various branches
of the fighting service and the great
majority of them are armed, equipp-
ed and under training. They will be
joined at the end of the summer by
nearly a million men selected for the
new national army from the millions
registered for war duty June 5.
i Big Gain i'm Army.
The regular army totalled a little
more than 100000 men three months
ago, it is nearing the 100000 mark
today and war department officials
backed by the press of the country,
are bending every effort to bring it
up to 100000 during the present
week.
The immediate need, administra-
ton officials believe, Is to bring the
regular army up to it's full strength
without delay. These are the first
line troops, the men who will be the
first Americans to face the German
hosts They will be the bone and
sinew Of General Pershing's army
and there must be no delay in get.
ting them ready to go.
Big Drive This Week
President Wilson has designated
the present week as recruiting weel
for the regulars. Secretary Bake
has sought the aid OF all newspaper
to the end that 10000 men shall b,
enrolled before June 30, No expla

. men by that time has been given blu

campaign for men as a local matte
q the filling up of the ranks on sche
Q dule time is regarded as assured.
- Advantages Pointed Out.
Brigadier General Mccain, adju
tant general of the army, pointed on
= again Sunday that under the seleC
tive army bill, every man who vo
unteers in the regulars now from an
state means one man less that stat
will be required to furnish in the nS
tional army. A careful record of til
state distribution OF recruits Is b

- General Mccain also directed q
tention to the fact that when tn

ments will have equal, il not bette
chances for securing commission
