No More Highway Bonds and
No new Construction
: Is Policy Voiced
CCaatlnaed from put 1)
bill for tho reason that eight
mombrs of the roads and high
ways commlttea had gone on rec
ord favoring Its approval.
Upton declared that on April 1
of this year the state highway
commission -would be confronted
with principal and Interest pay
ments of $1,500,000. "This bill,
in addition to safeguarding, the
lssnaneo of more bonds, will make
ft possible for the state to pre
serve Its credit and pay its honest
obligations,' Upton said. "That la
why the refunding clause was in
serted. Ton hare trusted highway
commissions in the past, and yon
now hare a commission which has
the courage to atari off local in
fluences, and promote a retrench
ment program. Senator Burke is
striking at a windmill. This bill
is sound and should receive the
support of every member of this
senate."
Opposition developed in connec
tion with Senator Dunne's resolu
tion recommending a moratorium
of two years on all new highway
construction. Dunne explained
that this resolution would permit
the completion ot- gaps between
primary roads now under con
struction and would not apply to
highway improvements now under
contract.
Senator Spaulding asked wheth
er . this resolution would prevent
completion of the Fourth street
extension in Slultnomah county
and the Wolf creek cutoff road
from Portland to the sea.
Dunne replied that he already
was working on a bill which
would eliminate the Wolf creek
highway from the state map.
Spaulding said it would be dif
ficult to reduce motor vehicle li
cense fees unless there was a gen
uine retrenchment in highway
construction.

state federation of labor, denounc
ed all forms of sales taxes as
burdensome to labor.
J. V. Ulrlch, president of the
State Association of Real Estate
Boards, declared the bill did not
give a fair distribution of taxa
tion. Will Ross, ot the Portland
Realty board, spoke in opposition
to "taking tax off on class of
property and putting it on an
other." H. E. Walter. Corvallls
realtor, said the trouble the state
was In was due to exemptions of
various kinds and cited removal
of $126,000,000 of personal prop
erty and high exemptions in the
Income taxes as a cause of the lack
of revenue. R. W. Hogg, Polk
county farmer, and J. Weinacht,
of Mt. Angel, objected to a new
sales tax, the former urging econ
omy and the latter recommending
a gross salary tax, collected at the
source. Max Buren, Dr. A. Slaugh
ter and W. Regen also opposed
tne sales tax.
At the conclusion of the hear
ing Representative McAlear, of
Washington county, a member of
the committee, expressed the opin
ion that no helpful contribution
had been made towards solving
the serious problem of the com-
-nltteo and the legislature. He urg
ed the company to submit con
structive suggestions instead of
objections to various plans pro
posed.
Tonight the committee will give
a hearing on a resolution to bar
all taxes on Teal and personal
property for state purposes after
1934.

No sooner kava wa coma to recognize relativity, the theory of Professes
Albert Eiasteia, as a scientific principle in no way related to political
patronage, than the world is again knocked dizzy with the riddle of the
'cosmic ray. What are they? Well, if you can answer that question,
there's a plash-lined niche waiting for you in the Hall ef Fame. Two el
the world's foremost authorities on physics couldn't agree oa the snh
icct recently and the battle ef their conflicting theories provided the
high spot at the convention ef the American Association for the Advance
meat of Science. The savants are Dr. Robert A. Miliikan, president oi
tko California Institute of Technology, and Dr. Arthur H. Coaspton, ol
the University of Chicago, who is aa erstwhile pupil ef Dr. Miliikan.
Both are Nobel orizo winners for ohvsics. Dr. MUlikaa holds that the
cosmic rays are super-vibrant light
creation of matter in the universe. These rays, says the savant, are ttt
most penetrating form of rays, more than 10,000 times more vibrant
than the X-Rays. Dr. Compton, on the other hand, contends that the
cosmic rays are not rays but speedy electrons, originating in the stars,
or hundreds of miles outside the stratospheric envelope, and entering
the earth's atmosphere in a steady stream. Dr. Compton only recently
returned from a survey that took him oO.OUg nulea to study tao rare
an the hifh mountains of five continents. As no one else in the world
knows nearly aa much about the elusive rays as the opposing scientists.

derman S. A. Hughes, in regard to
Trindie's part in the case. The lat
ter will have to be brought in to
sign papers in the ease, even if he
does not assist in preparing the
brief, Kowits pointed out.
When the brief is submitted,
Kowits will ask that date for oral
arguments bo advanced on the su
preme court docket, he said. If
the request is granted, a judg
ment may be handed down In
March.
The next action will be for the
city to answer the suit filed in
federal district court in Portland
by the water company. If a favor
able judgment should be given by
the state court, completion of the
federal case would be largely a
matter of form, accodlng to both
Kowits and Trindle.
