ORECON TUESDAY, APRIL 10, 1951 15-51 Beuhler, speaking at a Rose burg chamber of commerce forum luncheon, said the Oregon legisla ture passed a law in 1945 allow iV the formation of mosquito con trol districts. He said the law pro vided that the districts be formed in the same manner as sewer or water districts. Such a govern mental unit would be advantageous because it would give . local officials authority to carry out an clfective mosquito control pro gram, Beuhler said. At present, the U.

HARVEY JR. SALEM P The State Liq uor commission would be given increased authority to restrict beer tavern licenses under a bill passed by the House with only eight dis senting votes. It goes to the Senate. Sponsors of the measure said it also would make it easier for the liquor commission to enforce the law l.i Penalties for violation of t h e liquor regulations would be i n creased to a maximum of $1,000 fine or sjx months in (JailDThe penalty aow is $200 or three months. n It also would allow sale of liquor to Indians, who still wouKt b e barred by federal law from buying Under present law, the commis- sia may take into consideration the recommendations ot city coun cils as to whether tavern licenses shall be granted. The bill lays the commission must consider the local recom mendations. However, the liquor commission says it never grants a tavern license over the objec tions of a local government. Rep.

"Mail in response to this view has been unanimous," he told a reporter. "It's even surprised me I ex pected it least some adverse opin ion. He exhibited a batch of 20 or more letters. 8 In making his original proposal, Ellsworth said "many members of Congress (and I am we of them) are today doubting the wisdom of continuing sucn i loonsn control law" for three reasons:, 1. "It has done no food in fact it is encouraging inflation instead of hailing it." r 2. "The present administration seems incapable of setting up a workable administration of the law." 3.

Rail Workers' Cost-Of-Living Hike VA Cents Boost Fails To Satisfy Non-Operating Unions, Evokes Chaos Warning WASHINGTON UP) The army has ruled that under the wage stabilization regulations it can give 1.000,000 railroad workers only Hi cents of a scheduled six cent cost-of-living increase. The workers are members of no.i-operating unions clerks, ma chinists and others not directly connected with running triins. The president of one of their unions, Jesse Clark, said the army ruling would "have serious repercus sions." He added: ' It will cause an upheaval in t"e industry and in the country whole. There's lot of un rest rieht now, ind this isnA ev- fj-ing taJielp matters". w V Meanwhile, the New York Ten. tral railroad announced it is lay ing off several thousand employes in 11 eastern state. The company blamed a drop in business vol ume, recent wage increases and higher prices of materials for the economy move. The non-operating unions got a 12V cents an hour increase in ne gotiations concluded at the White ,aMouse March 1. Additionally, the contract called for cost-of-living boost of six cents on April 1. The irmy took technical control of the railroads during i strike last summer, and still has charge. Assistant Army Secretary Karl R. Bendetson said the largest in crease permissible under Mige stabilization 10 percent above levels of Jan. IS, 1950 would be 14 cents. Therefore, he said, the army couhl allow only 1V cents in addition to the IWt cents tils' non operating workers got March 1. President Truman has created a special transportation industry panel. He assigned as its first task considcratiun of the conflict between the non-operating unions' contract and the wage ceiling. The board is to make recommenda tions to economic stabilizer Kric Johnstotv. The army said ilOwill reconsider its decision afler John ston acts on the panel'! recom mendations.

Now it'i up to House members to decide what to do about it They earlier turned their backs on a $3,000,000,000 bill asked by the ad ministration, voting to return it to committee for further atudy. The senate measure was trimmed down to authorize only $1,500,000,000 in government - in sured mortgages for defense hous ing. The aim is to stimulate build ing of homes for defense workers and military personnel. It wis pissed by voice vote shortly after Senator Douglas (D- III) urged i senate banking com mittee investigation of net her the federal housing administration (EH A) hall given special benefits to "favored groups" in financing big housing projects.
