College Influence

The influence of colleges and universities upon the
electorate worth studying to bear out the frequent claim
that they build up intelligent and broadminded ctzenry
The last election however to offer proof that their
influence at least upon the communities in which they
situated, is for narrowness and intolerance
Seventeen eastern and central Oregon countless which
have higher educational institutions returned substan
a majores against that of fanaticism the
pusory school bill did Jackson in southern Oregon The
Willamette valley counties in which located the colleges
and universities returned heavy maorties for the bwh
two exceptions
Multnomah, where Reed college, the medical department
of the state university and other educational
institutions located of which puts out of business
returned majority Of 5000 for the school BILL Lane
county with the university of Oregon gave majority of
over 4600 Benton county, with the Oregon Agricultural
college, small majority; Yamhi with Linvile and
Pacific college, returned majority of $780, Linn county with
Albany college, returned it 800 majority
The two exceptions in college counties Marion with
Willamette university and Mount Angel college, giving 1900
against the bill and Washington, with Pacific university,
giving 500 against the BILL In justice the colleges it should
be stated that rule their faculties voted against bill
though the students for it.
Twenty of the 36 Oregon counties voted against the
school BILL but the majortes in Nultnomah and Lane and
the lumber-jack counties too heavy to overcome
However, before another election rolls around the hysteca
craze will probably have subsidized leaving those who
voted for this ashamed of their action
to reverse it.

Someone screamed: "Mary's faint

With quickness that surprised
him Starmount was over the coun-
ter. He picked the girl up in his
arms. She was unbelievably light.
"She is only a child" he thought
as he looked down on the perspira-
tion beaded, greenish-white face.
His first impulse was to get her
out in the air. Roughly he pushed
aside the gathering crowd and start
ed up the stairs. He was met by the
floor walker who had rushed to the
landing at the first sign of commo-
ton.
"Get out of the way" command
ed Starmount roughly jamming the
man against the wall when he at
tempted to take the girl. Then he
added:
"You people should be jailed for
keeping children down in that fur
mace under such conditions. Get out

judged was about twelve years old.
In reality Mary Devlin was that

with the girl still in his arms. He
paid no attention to her insistence
that he should put her down SO she
could go back to her work. There
was a clanking of an ambulance bell.

Pershing and the victorious armies of

scented by DR.. Morris Herzstein, 1922"
DIR. Herzstein conceived the idea of
the statue after he had heard from Gen
eral Pershing himself the story of the
American expeditionary force and saw
with his own eyes the fields where that
force had won imperishable glory. The
doctor toured the battlefieldS with Rep
resentative Julius Kahn of San Fran
cisco Immediately after the armistice and
