MANSION TALKED
Provisions for a governor's
house In Salem as a part of the
state's physical plant is being dis
cussed by state officials and cer
tain members of the Incoming
legislature, ft was reliably re
ported yesterday at the state
house. Discussion arose in connection
with oft - repeated criticism that
Oregon's highest state officials
spend only a portion of their
time in this city. It was pointed
out that almost all state capitals
lo the United States provide gov
ernor's mansion, owned and kept
up by the state.. It was also men
tioned that various superinten
dents of state Institutions are
prorided with quarters for their
families.
If a gorernor's house were pro
rided in Salem, an appropriation
would be needed from the next
legislature. Heretofore governors
have either owned or leased their
homes in Salem or else have spent
only a portion of their time.
Discussion at the statehouse
arose. In part, due to the exist
ing shortage of housing facilities
In Salem. Each of the guberna
torial candidates of the two par
ties this fall pledged themselves
to make Salem their home, if
and when they took office. At
the present time the number of
houses suitable for a governor
and available for rental are said
by realtors to be very few in
