WANT JUNIOR
COLLEGES PUT
ON STATE LIST
Seven Schools Seek Slice of
States Fund of Is Million
Now Going to Educational
Channels
By Arthur y. Schoeni


United Press Staff Correspondent
Inclusion OF Washington's seven
junior colleges under state high
.er education or common school sys-
TENS will be pushed strongly at
the 1885 legislature, according to
reports here. At present, the
schools receive no public funds for
support.
Approximately 500 students at
tending colleges at Longview,
Vancouver, Yakima, Aberdeen, Mt.
Vernon, Port Angeles and Gem
tralia would be affected. Salar-
les and running expenses Of the i'm
stitutions heretofore have been de-
rived from student fees with bus
inessmen in the cities "underwrit-
ing" the college budgets.
A bill probably will be intro
duced at the coming session put
ting the colleges under the states
financial wing" They may be
included with the colleges and nor
mails or added to the high and
grade school system.
Cost Of operating the seven i'm
stitutions for the 1933-34 school
year totalled only $62,314, an inf
Intestinal amount compared to the
property tax bill for common
schools, payable in 1884, totalling
1888, 065. Taxes levied for high
er education were $1,755,214. Total
junior college enrolment last year
was 5O7.
Although favorable to any move
stabilizing junior college educa-
ton, school authorities are expect
ed to oppose the move because Of
the critical state of educational fl
ance today. The estimated income
for all education this year was:
6,076,981 under the year before.
If junior colleges are included
in the higher education system,
money to run them will have to
come out of the pockets Of the
state colleges and normals. School
authorities fear adding junior col
leges under this class would re-
duce their income too drastically.
Two attempts were made In
past Legislature to put over the
merger" plan. Governor Hartley
vetoed measure to authorize for
nation Of junior college districts
of one or more counties, for tax
alton purposes.
Most junior colleges hold classes
in high school buildings in the
town where located, placing them
somewhat in the common school
system. In some places, the col
lege trustees are the local school
board of directors. CALIFORNIA;
extensive junior college system Is
financed out Of common school
revenues.
Largest Of the junior colleges in
the state is at Aberdeen. The
school had 1853 enrolled last year
and cost $21, 001 to operate, ac-
cording to annual reports filed with
the state department of education.
Other schools enrollments and
operations costs were: Yakima
valley, 154 students, $24,317; Cen
tralia, Sc, 5000; Mt. Vernon, SO,
$6,788; Clark, Vancouver, 81, ST.
938; Port Angeles, 10, s257.
The Port Angeles college was
newly organized last year, while
the southwest Washington college
at Longview, opened this fall,
with about 80 students.

The launching, of course, will
have to come from the White
House. Business now is worrying
as to whether the launching will
give the new MIRA shove to the
right or to the left.
Might Move to Right
President Roosevelt admittedly
came back to Washington under
immense pressure from business
for a declaration which might be
interpreted as turn to the right.
It was forecast in many circles
that such a declaration would be
forthcoming. There is a posi-
bility still that it will be made.
But those who talked with the
President yesterday were able to
CLEAN little that could be taken
as an indication that he has any
intention of changing the funda'
mental policies of his Administers
ton now or in the near future.

NO PASSING ZONES
TO BE ESTABLISHED

In a new effort to reduce acci-
dents on sharp curves, bad hills
and other places Of unusual hazard,
the state highway department will
soon establish mo passing" zones
on trunk highways.
Such danger zones will be indi-
Gated by q double center stripe in
the middle Of the highway, as con-
stripe in general use. Signs at the
roadside will carry the mo passing
message. .~ t..-,
Engineers are now making a sur
vey Of locations on the main
routes where passing restriction
are needed. In general such loca-
tions will be approaches to the crest
Of hill where the clear view ahead
is less than 500 feet, and on all
curves with radius less than 600
feet or where the clear view ahead
is less than 500 feet.
At places Of extreme hazard
special reflector button markers
may be placed between the double
center lines to emphasize the dang
ger at night.
Many head-on collisions result
from cars attempting to pass others
while the drivers cannot see far
enough ahead to insure safety.

IT am heartily in favor Of
Senator J. v. Weber's proposal

the farmers with seed for next

themselves without means to

1 sready to hand to them will
not make any statement to any
one as to what my recommends
tons will be in regard to rates. Any
one quoting me on that subject be-
fore that time will be basing his
statements on creations Of his own
imagination"
The facts are that under the
present law the rates go back to
the old level beginning January /.
The legislature of 1888 provided
for a reduction Of the rates for pas
senger vehicles and farm trucks in
amounts varying from 20 to 30 per
cent, depending on the age Of the
vehicle. The reduction provided,
however, was effective only for two
years, 1888 and 1884. The rates for
passenger vehicles in 1885 automat-
ically return to the 1882 level Of "a
per cent Of the base price.
The great volume Of letters deal
ing with the subject coming to the
office of the secretary Of state, and
articles appearing in the public
press, indicate that the legislature
will be called upon to give serious
consideration to the question Of
rates again this year. Under exist
ing law however, the secretary Of
state has had no choice but to pre-
pare the rate book for passenger
vehicles on the basis Of the rates
in effect in 1882. Those rates will
prevail unless and until the leg
islature amends the law.
