WILLAMETTE RIVER
WORK COHERED
Oreoofi -Cooperation Sought
In $3,000,000 Amount;
Lewis Plans Bill
If Oregon will cooperate to the
extent ot $3,000,000 in naviga
tion and hydro-electric power de
velopment of the Willamette riv
er between Portland and Salem,
federal assistance for the re
mainder of the some $5,000,
000. project could be expected
from the next session of the na
tional congress.
Indication that work may soon
be inaugurated near Salem de
spite the recent discouraging re
port of government engineers re
garding Willamette river develop
ment was received here by State
Representative John H. Lewis in
a communication from R. H.
Kipp, executive vice-president of
the Columbia Valley association
of Portland.
The possibility of reviving the
Willamette development resulted
from discussion with the federal
division engineer at San Fran
cisco, Lewis was Informed. "It
also seemed probable that if Ore
gon would build the New Era
dam the federal government
would do the other work on the
project to Salem." the communi
cation to Lewis read.
A house utilities committee bill
to come up for consideration of
the legislature probably next
Monday to authorize an Oregon
power commission to issue and
sell $5,000,000 - of state bonds
for power houses and transmis
sion lines, would meet the Indi
cated federal requirements, Lewis
announced.

IIIIIE MEASURE
PISSED OK nous
E
Departments to Contribute
To General Fund; Some
Opposition Voiced
Over some protest, the lower
assembly at the legislature yester
day passed a so-called "tithing
measure" providing that certain
self-sustaining commissions of the
state contribute a portion of their
gross income to the general fund
for state purposes.
The bill which carried sets out
that all funds which total more
than $75,000 a year, must pay
three per cent annually. This ap
plies to the state department of
agriculture, grain Inspections
fund, fish commission, hatchery
fund, game commission, and game
protective funM.
The companion bill providing
that ten per cent be paid out of
the annual gross receipts for more
than a score of self-sustaining
boards and commissions was held
over until today but passage Is ex
pected. Representative Wyers protested
at the diversion ot game depart
ment funds. Representative Hun
tington said members of the game
commission's staff had not been
paid for several months but Rep
resentative Gordon said the prin
ciple was fair and that there must
be no exceptions made to it.
The house stood back of the
ways and means committee and
approved a cut that may reach
more than $500,000 in the appro
priation for higher education in
the state. Eight votes were cast
in opposition to the bill. Deicb,
Dickson, Herron, Huntington,
Kelly, Walker, Weatherford and
Wyers.
The bill specified that the
amount for higher education, de
rived from a state tax levy of 2.04
mills be reduced $508,000.

of what is to come, their hopes
and opinions of what Impends with
