(Continued from page 1)
costs totalling $6140. Taking
1933 as a typical year, the jury
reports that $2719 was expended
in that year for 35,597 miles
traveled by the sheriff and his
deputies. Had the county owned
and operated its own. cars for that
period, the Jury believes a sav
ing ot $1652 could have been ef
fected in the 12 months. Three
cents a mile is enough to operate
a light car and to pay all gasoline,
oil, upkeep and depreciation
charges, according to the report.
In computing the outlay for
mileage, the auditor used the fig
ure of ten cents a mile allowed
bv state law for civil cases and
the figure ot six cents a mile
allowed by the county court lor
criminal cases. The court reduced
ita mileaee figure to six cents
during the depression. Before
that time the court allowed ten
cents a mile to all Its officials;
its present rate of six cents Is
drawn by all county officers who
use their own autos on county
business.
The jurors' report goes Into
several cases where extended trips
were made throughout the states
and compares the costs by auto
with the costs by train. The Jury
recommends that hereafter the
sheriff's tftice ascertain whether
the train charges are cheaper and
if so. to utilize the railroads ra
ther than the highways.
Criticisms ot vouchers present
ed in the case of Pavlock against
Klamath Falls are made by the
Jury which says it is unable to
find that su-'-i a case was in court
here. Another mileage item cri
ticized is one made for "atroling
a closed game area in the terri
tory east of Salem; the Jury rolds
that the voucher does not set
forth in sufficient detail what pa
troling was d and what speci
fic territory was covered.
The sheriff's office yesterday
withheld comment on the report
other thaa to point out that the
mileage rate on civil and criminal
cases was set by law and by the
county court, respectively, and
that the sheriff made only the
customary charges.
Green Appeals
For SuDDprt oi
Labor NRA Bill
WASHINGTON. June 7.-JPr-William
Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor,
appealed to the nation tonight to
back the federation's new NRA
bill.
Employers' promises to keep
their code wages and hours, he
said in a radio speech, would
have to be broken eventually be
cause of keen sales competition
by "chiselers.

As a result, he added, the na

labor conditions "the evils ot
child labor, unfair trade prac
tices, the sweatshop and sweat
shop conditions, declining wages,
excessive hours and inhuman con
ditions of employment" together
with "strife, strikes and indus
trial conflict."
MKT null BILL
PISSED BY HOUSE
WASHINGTON, June 7-P-The
house today gave the revised
and reduced NRA overwhelming
sanction, specifically refusing at
the same time to remove the pre
sident's powers to suspend the
anti-trust laws in connection with
voluntary codes.
The action, ordered by a vote ot
264 to 121, came a few hoars af
ter Mr. Roosevelt had asserted
that the anti-trust laws would be
fully enforced and that all snch
voluntary business agreements
must be in conformity with them.
The resulting situation preci
pitated some confusion and had
the capital guessing.
The fall text of the house reso
lution follows:
"To extend until April 1, 1936,
certain provisions of title I of
the national industrial recovery
act, and for other purposes.
"Resolved by the senate and
house of representatives .of the
United States of America in con
gress assembled, that section 2
(c) of title I of the national In
dustrial recovery act Is amended
by striking out "at the expiration
of two years after the date of en
actment of this alt" and Inserting
in lieu thereof "on April 1, 1936."
"Sec. 2. All the provisions of
title I of such act delegating pow
er to the president to approve or
prescribe codes of fair competi
tion and providing for the en
forcement of such codes are here
by repealed."

FUTURE OF OREGON
IS,
Predicting future prominence
for Oregon through a developed
commerce and Industry, John J.
Rudln. graduate student at Wil
lamette, yesterday told the Salem
Credit association some ot the
facts about Oregon and her mar
kets he has gleaned through a
study of commercial club records
over the state.
Oregon is fast becoming the
center of the furniture and flour
industries in this country because
Oregon goods can be sent by boat
cheaper to the south and east than
inland factories can ship to those
points by rail, Rudln pointed out
Industrial expansion, he said, is
bound to come because of logical
trade with the Oriental countries.
including Siberia which he pre
dicts will some day be opened up
and be one of the coast's big mar
kets; likewise Manchuria. Port
land's fresh water port has ad
vantages over either Seattle or
San Francisco for connections
with the Orient, he holds.
Opening of the railroad from
Eugene to Port Orford will tap
great mineral resources.

LID BOARD Will
ENTER SID CASE
The state land board will in
tervene in the three-way fight
over the ownership of Oregon
Sands at the mouth of the Col
umbia river, in the case brought
by the United States against the
Columbia River Packing com
pany and the Barbey Packing
company, it was decided Friday.
The sands, declared valuable
seining grounds, are near Sand
island. The government claims
the sands are a part of Sand
island and belong to the United
States as a result of the gift of
the island to the government by
Oregon In 1864.
The state of Washington claims
the new deposits are a part of
Peacock spit, owned by the north
ern state.
The packing companies con
tend the new sands are separate
and He within the jurisdiction of
the state of Oregon. A lease was
sought from the land board last
week.
A proclamation urging parti
cipation in Railroad week was is
sued Friday by Mayor V. E. Kuhn,
as follows r
"The railroads of the west have
contributed more toward the de
velopment of this great state of
ours than any other element and
should he given due consideration
for their achievements.
"They have been the determ
ining factor in the progress and
improvement of many sections
of this great west that would
have otherwise been valueless
lands. Their support to the state
and cities through their large
taxes and their employment of
many people has been of Very
material value in making our
great west what it Is today.
"In consideration ot these and
many other reasons, I urge all
the citizens to join in recogniz
ing the week of June 10th to 15th
as National Railroad week."
