PAGE TEN Tht OREGON STATESMAN. Salem, . Oregon, Sunday Morning, August 28, 1932 PEOPLE'S ItnLITY L BtATu Unfavorable Vote in two of Units r Involved Defeat ; v ' Issue, is Ruling ! Because two of the seven mu nicipalities and parcels which participated In the recent election on the ' formation of a. peoples utility district In Tillamtok coun ty; Toted adverse to the measure, the state hydro-electric commis sion is precluded from issuing a proclamation declaring that the district was created. Attorney General Van .Winkle held In an opinion Saturday. The records show that 1060 Toters east their ballots in favor of the district with 855 opposed. Four municipalities and one par cel In the county Toted for forma tion of the district while Nehalem and Wheeler Toted against it. : The hydro-electric commiasion requested the attorney general to give an opinion as to whether the district could be formed after eliminating the two municipalities which voted against it by decisive majorties. ' Van Winkle held that not only must each of the voting units em braced in the proposed district ap prove the project by affirmative majorities, but that failure of any one voting unit to approve the proposal defeats the proposition as It concerns the entire district. The returns of the election, to gether with the opinion of the attorney general will be consider ed at a meeting of the hydro-electric commission to be held "here Tuesday. The Tillamook district was the first to be voted under the new act of the 1931 legislature. In another opinion handed down Saturday Attorney General Van Winkle held that loans made to the1 counties under the federal emergency relief bill would not create an enforceable obligation on the part of the county, and that officials of the county would not be personally liable for any " in.' w nw w v a -4 yv EVELOf MEXTS the past II week at the state capltol portent much news for the Immediate future and have markV ed the. beginning not only of -the fall campaigns but the start of activities that will carry through beyond the session of the legisla ture next January, and probably longer. For the present week a statement from Governor Meier or the Holiuan-Elnzig episode is anticipated la view of the request he made of Einzig yes terday. He addressed a letter to him asking a full explanation of the entire affair, and the an- swer no doubt will be publish ed as Meier's reply to Holman. But that is of course specula tion. There are several angles to this controversy which came out into the open during the past week, and there may be as many changes in the future picture. Whatever it might be, few peo ple around the statehouse will fall to digest all - the news that might come out on the case. Another big story " for the coming week will be the meet ing of the state highway com mission at Portland Wednes day. A lot more road work will be let, and there perhaps will be some kickbacks on the short road to the sea Issue. The ses sion may last several days. Eighteen contracts are expected to be let. back to where it started as a result of an attorney general's opinion. The Tillamook vote fail ed to formulate a district. The 19J1 hydro-electric bill so far has proved of little benefit. Changes in the law are anticipated. Sale of automobile licenses continues even though Hal E. Hoss is enjoying the "back ers" at the beach, but it was noticed that the sales have been falling off. This should bring Hal back to see to it that the business keeps up. To date 170,822 licenses have been issued, just 45,250 lees than a year ago. Petition signers should take a warning from the example of the Silver Falls rancher who return ed to his home and found a road being built through his house. Upon complaint it was learned he was one of the signers of the petition requesting this' route. Which proves that most people would sign their .lives away. The first utility district to be voted in Oregon is having its share of troubles and now Is Just such loans. The opinion was re quested by Raymond B. Wilcox of Portland, chairman of the state relief counsel. Dan E. Maloney former pub lisher of the Coos Bay Times at MarshfJekl, but now of San ta Ana, California, was a visi tor here yesterday and looked up some of his friends. He was the guest of your correspon dent who toiled many years un der the Maloneys and took his apprenticeship there.
