WARRANT BASIS
Forma! Admission Made of
Inability to pay Cash;
Amount to $450,000
l5ou!d be Redeemed Soon If
Banks, Highway Board
Willing to Wait :
The Stato of Oregon took the
plunge yesterday and went on the
warrant basis thus formally ad
mitting Its Inability to meet all
obligations as due for the first
time in more than a decade.
At mid-afternoon Wednesday
Deputy Treasurer Fred Paulas
beean to mark warrants "not paid
for want of funds" and interest
tearing at fire per cent annually.
Warrants will te stamped as of
the day presented, .not the date
the warrant was Initially drawn.
Panlus estimated that $450,000
general fond warrants were now
outstanding- and would be stamp
ed. Special books and stamps hare
been provided to handle the re
cording of data about the unpaid
warrants.
Farly Redemption
Mav be Possible
Tne state could speedily re
deem these warrants. It was indi
cated yc I'.erday at the capital, if
two things could be done.
The flTst would be the indefin
ite extension of the $1,024,000
loan made by Portland banks to
the state October 1, 1932.
The second would be the indef
inite extension of the 1700,000
advanced the general fund by the
state highway department.
If these lenders would consider
their obligations of the state se
cure and would not ask that first
moneys coming to the general
fund go to them, warrants could
hortly be entirely taken up.
The reason lies in the fact that
early In April from $800,000 to
$750,000 in Insurance companies
fbv.s are to be paid into the gen
eral fund. Income, excise and in
tangibles taxes are also coming In
large amounts to the general
fund.
Counties to Send
In Taxes In May
In May, the state is due to re
ceive from the counties of the
state about $1,400,000 as the first
half payment of the 1932 tax lev
ied for state purposes. While
some counties may balk on this
payment, state officials find no
precedent in law to allow them to
refuse payment.
These three large sources of
revenue would take up the $450,
000 in warrants outstanding and
meet current demands on the
general fund.
However, if the Portland banks
and the state highway depart
ment insist their advances be paid
out of these moneys and employes
and sellers of goods to the state
accept unpaid warrants, the lat
ter will accumulate.
Ranks here and in Portland
were not taking state warrants
yesterday except for collection or
as collateral for loans, the latter
ranging from 65 to 80 per cent of
the race value of the warrant.

PORTLAND, Ore., March 29
(AP) The future of the lumber
Industry depends largely on the
construction of dwellings to re
place those built several decades
ago. Dr. J. E. Lode wick of the
Pacific northwest forest expert
ment station told members of the
North Pacific branch, society of
American foresters, at their
monthly meeting here tonight.
Dr. Lodewick said that surveys
conducted by the experiment sta
tlon have shown that the housing
of families in apartments requires
only one-third as much lumber as
would construction of private
homes for the same number of
families.
Proper use of grazing, agricul
tural and forest lands, L. A. Breit

Contrary to tax commission ex

Yesterday morning the commis

Contending U. S. Ought
To Cancel Debts
Willamette university's debate
team, upholding the affirmative
side of the question against de
baters from Stanford university
at Waller hall last night, received
the decision in its favor given by
Professor Earl Wells of Oregon
State college, critic Judge. In ex-
nlaininr his choice Wella stated
that he used as basis of his de-
clsion the strength of arguments
presented, other factors being
equal.
The question was: Resolved,
That the United States should
agree to cancellation of inter-al
lied war debts.
The strongest argument of the
winning team, Ross Knotts and
Ralph McCuIlough, In favor of the
resolution was that due to lowered
prices it cost the United States
11,000,000,000 to ship farm prod
ucts to England, while it collected
only 95,000,000 from Great Bri
tain.
Bromley Smith and Leonard
Bloom, taking the negative side
for Stanford, used as the basis
for their arguments the fact that
enforced payment of debts by Eu
ropean countries would serve as
a valuable lesson to them, and
would be instrumental in keeping
them out of war in the future.
Ray Lafky of Willamette acted

NEWCHWANG, M a n e h u rla,
March 2i (AP) In one of the
most daring raids In recent his
tory. Chinese buccaneers kidnaped
four British officers today from
the British merchantman Nanch-
ang while the vessel was waiting
for the high tide at tne New
chwang bar.
J. R. Robinson, skipper of the
Nanehang, Immediately turned the
vessel about to pursue the pirates,
at the same time sending out an
alarm by wireless, but the pirate
junks escaped In the shallow wa
ters. British gunboats at once start
ed search for the pirates and
the victims, W. E. Hargraves, A.
D. Blue, F. L. Pears and Charles
Johnson.
Other Abductions
By Bandits Recalled
The kidnaping recalled tne re
cent abductions by Chinese ban
dits of Mrs. Kenneth Pawley and
Charles Cochran, also British sub
jects, who were captured by Chin
ese last fall and who arrived at
Newchwang October 20 after hav
ing been In the kidnapers' cus
tody 44 days.
Fourteen pirates on two small
junks boarded the Nanehang and,
firing their rifles and pistols
wildly, ordered the. Chinese crew
to show them the officers cabins.
From the cabins the buccaneers
drove their four victims at the
point of their guns.
Then the officers were bound
and thrown over the side Into the
waiting junks, which are large
vessels having lug-sails.
Meanwhile, the pirates looted
all the cabins on the Nanehang
and wounded two of the Chinese
crew in so doing.
Before Captain Robinson and
the chief engineer were able to re
store order and get their vessel
under way, the pirates had a head
start which enabled them to reach
the shallows where the Nanehang
could not follow.

tain William C. McNaught and
Captain Clyde Raabe, both of

Sweet ot Astoria, has "ceased to
function, and for that reason I
will within 24 hours name a com
mission which will function."
The pilot commission, the exec
utive observed, should fix rates

tractive to shipping and which
would encourage ship owners and
agents to patronize the ports of
Portland and Astoria.
ASTORIA, Ore., March 29.
(AP) Frank Sweet of Astoria,
