lion Commute heard Wednesday
night a compromise proposal in
th hot argument over the "key
district" plan to redistribute ba
sic school funds.
It cam from a member of the
committee, Rep. John D. Mosser
(Rl, Portland, who suggested
that Portland be eliminated aa the
key district.
Mosser' plan ia significant, be
cause he probably will have th

Th other fight members appear
divided 4-4 on th Senate-passed
bill.
Mosser aaid that if a hypothetic
al key district is put in th bill,
th strong opposition in Portland
and Eastern Oregon might b re
duced. Th bill's Intent ia to equalize
th tax burden over th state, and
to giv each school district th
sam financial resource that
Portland' distrct has.
The committee heard from the
Sroponenta. On April 15, it will
ear from th opponents,

bill would cost them four million
dollar year, baied on th pres
ent basic achool distribution of $80

no achool district would get hurt.

reaching into Congrese itself to
cleave union members away from

Beck scarcely mentioned hii
committee appearance, but the
magazine also carried the text of
10 articles of the Constitution
Bill of Rights, including th Fifth
Amendment.
Saying Congress may be con
sidering writing new labor legis
lation stricter on unions than the
Taft-Hartley Law. Beck advised
bis union'i 1.350,000 members
"Look around you . . . You'll
find among the reactionary group
of employers a new and different
attitude . . . They're willing to
battle on every little point limply
because they think the time ia
ripe for a fight with labor."
In a union, Beck said, it'i re

mowed that Teamsters union

On th general election ballot of
