HISTORY GIVEN OF
COUNTY UNIT PLAN
OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Workings of Plan since First Ats"I'-
tion Is Outlined; New
system Held Hest

In order to give clear under
standing OF the proposed count,
unit plan for schools by outlining
the history OF the plan since its
first adoption, the following state.
ment today was issued by Twyla
Ferguson, county school supcrin'
tendent:
The question OF the county unit
plan for schools IL to be voted on
at the primaries May 10 in Klam'
ath county. An explanation OF the
plan as II will operate in this coun-
.ty has appeared elsewhere In print.
but II IL interesting TO note the
history OF this plan OF the county
for the unit In the administration
and taxation for schools.
In the early history OF the colo
nies there could be little communi-
cation. little exchange OF commodi-
ties and ideas. Every settlement
was almost an independent republic
and It's law-making body was the
town meeting. Under these pioneer
conditions the district school sprang
up, serving the people Of those
times as no other system could

the Indians were subducd and civil
isation spread.
1t became apparent TO those old
patriots who were fired with a zeal
for 4 democratic school system that
all children were not getting equal
educational opportunities. This be.
came even more apparent after rail
roads were built and other corpora
tons came in to develop the coun.
try. The children who happened
to live away from the railroad often
had the most meaEcr advantages,

Hence OF this community OF whithe,

could. we believe, have been avoide,
had a little more foresight beer
shown on both sides,
But We arc again at the forks o.
the trail, and one course Is inevitably
going 70 lead TO greater and more
general suffering.
Will we all profit by the lessons oi
the rash past and let experience b,
the guide TO wiser future'
There Is still time to retrieve our
losses; time still fer a prosperous
season In the numbering industry II
the men upon whom the settlement OF
this situation devolves will meet sac

ment Of this community TO insist tina;
some effort be made by both parties

to jeopardire the community's rights,
and that on the other side this docu.

CURRENT COMMENT
Drug AddIcts and Prohibition.

| 1t is unfortunate when the search,
| light .of publicity falls ON an actor
like Wallace Reid, popular by virtue
Of his picture making ability, and
tells the depressing story Of his col
lapse through the use OF drugs, follow
| ing drinking habits.
What has happened TO Reid has hap
pened to thousands of victims not in
the public eye, the difference being
that the unknown victims are either
under medical treatment or are rapidly
approaching the inevitable and awful
end which waits upon drug addiets.
The increase Of drug victims has
followed directly upon the heels of
federal prohibition. Prohibition may
not be entirely TO blame, but the shut
ting of Of the customary sources of
liquor supply, the tremendous in
crease in price and the difficulty of
getting regular supply must have
something to do with it. However, that
may be, the condition Of Reid merely
emphasizes very serious national
situation, one which>is giving physi-
clans and alienists much concern.
Perhaps, more liberal interprea-
tion OF the eighteenth amendment, to
wit, the legalizing OF beer and light
wines, would not do away with such
cases, but il Is the opinion Of some
pretty good judges that it would
help considerably. 1t might at least
stop the so-called dope parties"
which are about as near total degene-
racy as such things can be.--Rutland

The Vermont State Grange has
grappled courageously with the tax
problem by the adoption of resolutions
recommending the enactment of a
state income tax, the creation of a
state equalization board and the
termination Of the practice Of extend
ing tax exemption to private property.
The courage Of the grange. however,
is not matched by its wisdom, in the
opinion of The Reformer. We agree
with the st. Alhans Messenger that
il is doubtful whether the people of
Vermont will look with favor on an
attempt TO create new tax sources
when there is a general feeling that
taxation should take a turn downward
instead Of upward Furthermore. as
The Messenger says, the Republican
party is pledged 10 economy and IL win
look strange II It attempts to create a
new tax law in the face of such
pledge.
As 10 the proposition for state
equalization board it is doubtful
whether this viii meet with general
favor, although it cannot be denied
that something ought TO be done TO
correct the notorious practice of many
towns in making low valuations for
the express purpose of evading state
taxes Possibly the creation of a state
board TO take the place of
the various county boards, and
authorization OF the tax commissioner
to appeal from local valuations might
accomplish as much as a board Of
and with far les overhead
expense.
II exemption Of Industrial property
for short terms Is Of benefit to the
towns that adopt the practice il must
fc Of equal bopcit to the state in The
long run. and the legislatures would
do well to study he question: carefully
befs re changing the law in this regard.
