TEACHER LOANS
REP AID, STATES
/. PRINCIPAL BUCK
Replies to Criticisms From
Accounts Board on
Handling Funds.

Steps to halt loaning of money to
teachers from the Shortridge High
School book exchange, criticised in a
report Thursday by the State board
Of accounts, already have been
aaken, Principal George Buck said
today.
Buck said he issued orders last
fall, following similar report by the
accounts board, that no more loans
we're to be made. Since that time,
E part of the money loaned has been
repaid, he said.
The principal defended the pres
Fnt system of handling funds of
the book exchange and lunch room,
declaring no radical change is nee
essary.
Profits for The Echo
profits from these two funds"
he said, "are used largely to de-
fray deficits in the Shortridge Echo
fund, which annually amount to
$500 or $4,000.
'If profits were turned over to
the school board, we should have to
ask the board to return most of it
for the Echo deficit"
He added that if any loans had
been made to teachers since the
report last fall it had been with
out his knowledge.
The fund is in the hands Of G.
M. Grassland, bookkeeper and man
ager Of the exchange; who is under
$4,000 bond.
$3.50 in Loans Repaid
Of the $2,852.85 outstanding
March 81 in loans to teachers, ST.
$40 was loaned to Grassland him
self, the report showed.
Buck said Grassland borrowed
the money to finance building a
home, and had been repaying it
at the rate of $50 a month.

Walsman suggested that high

to present understandable reports
on these funds each month.

Europe Leaning to Kellogg Plan

Optimism for the future 81 the kellogg proposal
20 renounce war as an instrument Of national policy
Il observable among officials studying the question,
this optimism increasing as it becomes more apparent
! daily that European countries are finding in the Kel-
logg proposals a common ground upon which they can
take concerted action in outlawing war.
The most difficult obstacle the state department
has to face Is the French proposal, which. officials
aver, would except from the SCOPE Or The proposed
treaty PIT the French alliances IN the continent Of
Europe. The state department ~ unalterably opposed
20 changing the text Of the treaty to make such an
exception. and with this in view Sir Austen Chamber
lain, in his note two weeks ago, indicated that agree
ment on these difficult points could be obtained and
Incorporated In some official form without changing
the present brief and simple language of the pact.
This suggestion was well received IN Washington, ser
rotary kellogg referring 10 the British note a. most
encouraging.
Ore OF the most encouraging factors Is the attitude
Of Poland, an ally Of France, which takes a far .ess
critical view Of the kellogg pact than the French gov
ernnent. Poland intimated that IN no event should

upon the functions Of the League of Nations.
One factor eshich has not faxed 70 impress Europe
Is the perseverance displayed BY Secretary Kellogg IN
attaining ms objective. Up ~ q few weeks ago, the
European press and many diplomats were frankly pes
simistic. and some went ~ the extent Of declaring the
proposal merely a political gesture on the part Of the
part Of the United States. Despite sebuffs in all quar-
tiers Secretary Kellogg has continued his efforts with
unabating perseverance and has finally forced Europe

ouished his efforts months ago, but Kellogg. by meet
