Support Must Be
Given Dependants
by Family, Held
The old-age pension law Im
poses a mandatory duty npon par
ents, children and brothers or sis
ters. If they are financially able
to do so, to provide for the sup
port of indigent persons, and
these persons if found to have
other possible support, are not eli
gible, for the pension. Attorney
General Van Winkle held in an
opinion handed down yesterday.
The opinion was requested by
Sherman S. Smith, district attor
ney of Josephine county.
Under the civil law one excep
tion is made to this rule. This is
in the case of married women
where the county has no legal
right to compel them to support
indigent parents "while their hus
bands are living." The criminal
code provides that persons who
are financially able to do so but
fail to support Indigent relatives
may be punished by a jail sentence
and fine.

Sales Tax, Jury Change and
County Bond Voting are
Included in List
Five measures will come before
voters of Oregonat the May 18
primaries: Two are constitutional
amendments, two legislative bills
and the third a referended meas
ure passed by the last special leg
islative session. With the excep
tion of the sales tax, all the meas
ures were ordered referred to the
voters by the legislature.
The referendum measure at
tacks the sales tax which provides
for a levy of one and one-half per
cent on gross receipts from retail
sales of tangible personal prop
erty and utility service.
Referendum of the sales tax
law was sponsored by the Oregon
State Grange, the State Federa
tion of Labor and a number of
other organizations.
One of the proposed constitu
tional amendments provides that
ten members of a Jury In a crim
inal case, other than those involv
ing capital offenses, may return a
verdict of guilty. The unanimous
vote or tne iz jurors is now re
quired to return a verdict of guil
ty in a criminal case.
The other constitutional amend
ment requires a two thirds vote
in counties to authorize county
Indebtedness exceeding $5000 for
roads, and a similar vote to is
sue bonds In an amount equal
to the aggregate of its outstand
ing warrants on December 31,
1933. In no case shall bonds be
issued in excess of 2 per cent
of the assessed valuation of the
county.
The two referred bills author
ize the location, construction and
operation of a state tuberculosis
hospital and state Insane asylum
in Multnomah county.
These bills contain the pro
vision that neither the tubercular
hospital nor the Insane hospital
shall be constructed until funds

Plntucks and Sheared Kid in brown, white, blue and

legislative session an effort was
made to obtain federal funda for
the construction ot these Institu
tions. Virtually all grain crops which
local farmer will plant this sea
son are already In the ground,
with exceptions of barley, some
oats and clover seed, says Floyd
White, seed dealer. Crops all
look very good but no indica
tions of prices will be evident
until tne season Is more ad
vanced.
White says seed men as yet
have no knowledge of how heavy
the plantings of" barley will be
locally this spring. Barley plant
ing time will be at hand soon,
and inasmuch as farmers are not
placing advance orders for seeds,
the acreage that will go Into bar
ley will not be known until plant
ing time arrives.
With the brewery trade open
ing up new fields for disposal of
malting barley, and with agricul
turists declaring local land high
ly suited for the crop, there is
some anticipation that a large
quantitr ot brewing barley will
be sown In the valley.
