Thornton Won't Tab New Soardman Sill As Illegal SALEM (UPI) While Atly. Gen. Kobert Y. Thornton says "a grave question exists as to the constitutionality" of the spe cial bill to once again pull the Boardman chestnuts out of the fire, he does not declare the bill is illegal. His four-page opinion request ed by Reps. Sidney Leiken, D- Itoseburg, and Richard Eymann, D-Marcola, was submitted to lawmakers Nov Z2, shortly be fore the special session of the legislature recessed because of the assassination of President Kennedy. The bill Is scheduled for a vote Monday when the legisla ture reconvenes. The opinion deals with one of two Boardman bills before the legislature the one which would transfer the project to the Vet erans Affairs Agency, and ratify the $4.6 million, 77-year lease of the 100,000-acre site to the Boe ing Co. of Seattle, Wash. Corbett Asks Second Ruling During the recess Sen. Alfred Corbett, D-Portland, requested Thornton's opinion on a compan ion measure which would freeze property tax values at the site for the life of the lease. Thornton's first opinion noted "wo can see no constitutional bar to the use of actual 'sur plus' moneys now in the veter ans' bond sinking fund." Thornton noted the state's lease with Boeing holds the company "harmless against cer tain adverse claims by third parties. This office has ruled on several occasions that the state cannot enter into such agree ments.. .in a 1 1 probability the Oregon Supreme Court, if con- fronted with this quostion, would hold these provisions of the lease would not be binding upon the state, but would not on that ground invalidate the en tire lease." . ;j Thornton's opinion continues, "T h e principal constitutional question which he believe arises under the bill in its present form is the validity of authoriz ing and ratifying the expendi ture of public funds to subsidize industrial development, and for the benefit of a specific private corporation. "No doubt there are other firms which would be interested in receiving low-rent lands, tax exemptions, or other preferred treatment... "We are therefore confronted with a bill which singles out one corporation and grants to it a privilege which Is not available to any other." Thornton said he could find no case "in which this precise question" has been passed upon by the Oregon Supreme Court lie cited cases in 1(1 states where such actions wore ruled unconstitutional, two where they Page 2 The News-Review Sat., Nov. 30, 1963 Pilots Seek To Clear Plane Crew WASHINGTON (UPI) Air- were held constitutional, a n d the highest court of our state two others where courts hadsoeaks on it."

Was Active Hert Smith has been active in the Roseburg Ministerial Associa tion and is presently serving as vice president. Also, for the past two years, he has been an active member of the Rotary Club. "It took much deliberation on tl c part of my family and I be fore a final decision was made to accept the call tc the Den ver pastorate," Smith said. "We love Roseburg and its people and really have our roots down here. It is with regrjt that we L-avc the Roseburg church and our friends here." It is believed the pilots first will ask the CAB to reconsider that part of its verdict citing al leged faulty piloting technique. If the CAB refuses anu n tra ditionally will not reopen an ac cident investigation unless new evidence is presented the pilots arc expected to take their case to the courts. Seldom in history of accident investigation have airmen been so angered by a CAB report. ALPA officials declined com ment on the arguments they arc gathering for presentation to the CAB. But a close look at tne board's Oct. 10 report reveals a major area in which the CAB's conclusions raised eye brows not only among pilots, but airline officials and others in the aviation community. Weather Report Inadequate The CAB, in its "probable cause, conceded inai Beciuuni was the victim of inadequate; weather reporting. The last weather report he received in dicated safe visibility condi tions. Yet even as he swung into his final and fatal approach, a fog-measuring device on his assigned runway was showing virtually zero forward visibility, The CAB noted that this infor mation was never given to the Enstcrn flight. It is the pilots' contention that Bechtnld was trapped by condi tions beyond the control of any airman to overcome unless he was incredibly lucky, and re gardless of what technique he used. district-city advisory committee1 try, said one of the girls will on Stewart Park. jgo home next week.
