HARVEY, JR. SALEM, Ore., Jan. 13. IJFf The 44th Oregon legislature o-ened its 1947 session today on a note of harmony after one of the quickest organizing sessions In history. It took each House only a few minutes to choose presiding offi cers and officials, headed by Sen ate President Marshall E. Cor- nett or Klamath Falls and Speak er John H. Hall of Portland. All of the officers were elected unanimously. An example of the narmony is ine iaci mat sen. Earl T. Newbry, Ashland, nom inated Cornett for the Senate leadership, and Sen. William Walsh, Coos Bay, seconded the nomination and moved mat a unanimous ballot be cast for Cor nett. Newbrv and Walsh had been candidates themselves for senate president.

' The (Republican dominated) congress, whose constitutional Job is to FIND THE MONET TO BE SPENT, howls like a wounded wolf when It hears the figure. Its leaders assert (for publication) that the President's sights are set MUCH too high. THERE Is another point of dif ference. The President says (for publi cation) that he thinks taxes should be cut very little. If at all. Go on taxing till it hurts, he ad vises (for publication), and use the money to pay off debt. Several Republican leaders In congress have announced (for publication) that they think In come taxes should be cut as much as 20. Others, somewhat more realistic, have suggested at least 10. THERE Is a slight weakness In the pay-off-debt program out lined by the President. His esti mate of income for fiscal 1948 ex ceeds his estimated outgo by only 202 million dollars. That seems a mere trifle In the, way of pay-off (Continued on page 2) GOP Support of Marshall's Foreign Policy Assured in Sen. Vandenberg s Address WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. tW Gen. George C.
