PORTLAND. ore. Nov. 17.-Artei
the heat of the most bitter campaign
in its history. oregon is trying tC
take stock and decide just what vii
be the effect OF the Compulsory Edu-
cation bill which was enacted By
the electors and which closes all ex.
cept public schools 10 pupils be-
tween the ages OF 8 and 16.
The present consideration revoive,
around whether the measure Is con-
stitutionai and what changes will be
found necessary IN case it Is held
legal. The law does not go into ef-
feet until 1925
That there IS determined opposi-
ton TO the measure. even though Il
was passed by a considerable ma
jority goes without saying The
brunt OF the flghting against the
measure has been borne by the prl-
vate and non-sectarian schools. at
least so far as a public campaign
Is concerned. Now that It Is be-
yond the stage OF propaganda # is
likely that the Catholics and the de-
nominations most concerned will be
aggressive IN the litigation
No one has made a canvass TO as
certain just how many schools Will
be put out Of existence n she law
IS upheld by the courts. but 1000
Is a fairly accurate estimate Of the
number OF pupils affected. This Is
not a large percentage OF the total
for the State. probably per cent.
but opponents OF the measure con
tend that no mater how small
minority It Is. all OF its rights should
be safeguarded just as carefully as
though the number were far
larger.
OF the 1900 pupils outside puitic
schools approximately 5000 are
Catholics. 500 Adventists, 400 Luth-
erans. a handful OF Epieoopalians
and the others are divided among
four non-sectarian private schools in
Portland. The bulk OF Adventists
are scattered among a good many
very small schools throughout the
state.
Whatever the feeling in Oregon
on the School bill, just now It is
finding little expression. Now that
the fight IS over. there is a breathing
spell. The animosities that have
been created still exist but for the
most part they are under the sur
face.
The different sections of the State
are showing various reactions TO the
bill. Although the Scottish Rite f,

cate that this issue carried little

of the taxes having been voted by

strong sentiment for tax reduction,
but It did not go far toward de-
featlng the School bill. even though
the bill means an added expense OF
