ed for the most part in the schools OF
our own country. They are the an
swer.
How has this army Of teachers been
compensated for its Invaluable service
to its country? In most cases by a
meager wage. Is it not time to be more
lust to them? The private OF the reg
aiar army receives his board and
clothes, medical attention, and $50
month. Surely the merest novice OF
a teacher should receive as much and
with experience should be promoted
in the ranks.
A man or woman qualified to teach
in our secondary schools or colleges
should receive not less than the pay OF
a second lieutenant and should be pro-
NOTED for faithfulness and efficiency
to the pay of first lieutenant, and so
on to that of captain. OF major, etc.

TAXING FOR TEACHERS

Public opinion throughout the stati
is rOusing to the seriousness Of thi
educational situation in Missouri. Pc
titions are in many places being cir
culated asking the Board of Equaliza
1 tiOn to raise the assessed valuation o
I property to its full value.
On the face of 1t that seems to meel
I the situation; presto, taxes come
pouring in and teachers salaries are
raised. But it is not quite so simple
as that.
II the assessed valuation of proper
ty is made equal to its full cash value,
the revenue of the state will be trip
led and a larger surplus than is
healthy would accumulate in the
treasury. Rates could not be reduced
proportionately until the next session
OF the legislature.
Furthermore, this increase would
bear most heavily on the farmer and
those whose property is land. as the
intangible wealth, stocks, bonds, cash
and SO on, of the cities is not declared
and not taxed in most cases. The re-
suit would be an enormous increase
in the incomes of counties, villages
and rural districts since all taxes are
based on the same assessment and a
necessary readjustment of every local
government in Missouri would be
made.
The leap from too little assessment
to too much would lead to waste and
extravaganza. But it is becoming
painfully clear that an increase I'm the
revenue for teachers is imperative.
The Board Of Equalization can meet
the situation by increasing the assess
ment just as much as is absolutely |
needed to give the mentors of our
youth a living wage.
We have had brought home to us
the unpleasant fact that Missouris
taxing system is hopelessly out of
late. Doubtless temporary measures
will be taken to tide US over the pres
ent crisis. But We must remember
that the relief is only temporary and
hat We cannot now return to our for
ner state of slothful Indifference.
At the next election we must insist
1pon either a new constitution or such
in the present one as
Will give us at least a modern and
taxing system. If we do not
he temporary alleviation of our ills
viii not suffice and they will return
US in a more acute form in year
n two. II

RASMUSSEN TO STUDY ESKIMO
Danish Explorers Ambition Is Said to
Be to Make Thorough Study Of
the Northern Race.


The remarkable studies carried out
by the Danish explorer, Knud Rasmus-
sen, among the Greenland Eskimos
are described by W. l., Ekblaw In the
Geographical Review. Rasmussen,
who IS part Eskimo himself, was born
and trained in languages and eth
nology at the University Of Copen-
hagen.
1t is his ambition to make a thor
ough study Of the whole Eskimo race,
from eastern Greenland to Siberia, and
he has already visited every Eskimo
settlement In Greenland. 1t is said
that he knows every Greenland Eskt
mo personally. Mr.. Ekblaw believes
1t safe to say that no one else has
ever come into such direct contact
with Il whole people as he has.
Late In 1919 he returned from a
visit to Ammassaiik,' on the east coast.
He was surprised to find uat the east
Greenland Esklmos preserve many Of
the customs Of the central Eskimos,
who stul inhablt the ancestral home
Of the race about Hudson bay. He
found that they are more closely re-
lated TO the central Eskimos than are
my Of the other tribes Of the entire
Greenland const, and That only recent
~ have they been affected by contrast
with the Greenland west coast culture.
