The sub-committee of the cap-
ltol committee which was appoint
ed Monday night to find the price
of the three blocks north of the
capitol site and to confer with
city officials to see what the city
would be willing to do to cooper
ate in the purchase ot the Wil
lamette site, reported yesterday.
They reported that a number of
the 'residents in the three blocks
north of the old site were willing
to submit the matter to arbitra
tors but that there were a num
ber who did not care to sell "he
estimated price of the three
blocks was set at $525,000, which
would add 12.27 acres to the
present site.
Three propositions 1 were re
ceived from the city officials re
lative to the Willamette site, All
three of the plans would leave a
sufficient amount to build the
capitol and leave a balance for in
cidental furnishings, which could
be made under PWA regulations.
The city's share would have to be
voted by the people.
Believe Salem is
Willing to Contribute
When Representative Norton
questioned the desire and ability
of the people of Salem to make
the contribution Senator Wallace
and Representative 'Angell stated
that in their opinion Salem would
be willing to do it.
"When the people of Salem re
alise that' should we build on the
old site It will only be a tempor
ary structure," Angell said, "and
that eventually the capitol may
be moved elsewhere, I believe
they will be willing to help."
Characterizing the lack of a
definite plan for a new capitol as
a "deliberate attempt to throw
odium on the legislators," Repre
senative Height in the morning
session of the house, attacked the
planning board and governor
along with the capitol construc
tion committees for slowness in
preparing legislation and recom
mending a plan to the legislature.
"The track Is clear and I de
mand some action," be said. "I
can fix a bill and outline a pro
gram. The governor is not going
to make a monkey out of me, be
cause I won't take it."
Representative Angell in an
swering Height said that the
joint committees were making
good headway and that within 24
'JOurs the bill should be before
the senate for action.
"I think we have, done remark
ably well in ten days to mske the
progress we have," Angell said.
The house took no action on
any bills yesterday, only hearing
ten new bills read, which were re
ferred to the committee on legis
lation and rules. That committee,
meeting after adjournment, re
ported out only three bills. They
were House Bill 21 to prohibit
branch banks. Senate Bill 14, re
lating to the distribution of su
preme court reports and Senate
Bill 32 relating to the issuance
of warrants by the county auditor
of Multnomah county.
First County WPA

Thorough Investigation by Sa
lem police Tuesday into the kid
naping tale told them Monday
night bx Harvey Haskin, 23 8 Cen
ter street, failed to bring any cor
roboration or shed any light on
the affair, they reported.
Haskin said two men forced
him to drive them and a woman
they picked up at 12th and Court
streets to Oregon City where they
met another man, let Haskin go
and then followed him a few
blocks on his return trip to Sa
lem. He's Still Scared
Haskin, Informed of what po
lice had to say, told a reporter
last night he did "not care what
the police had to say about it."
"I was scared and I still am,"
Haskin said. "A friend of mine,
a business man who's worth more
than $100,000, told me today I
was lucky to be here now. Those
fellows (the dope runners he as
serted abducted him) have mil
lions behind them and it wouldn't
mean anything to bump me off.
They'd pay a man $50 to do that
and think nothin of it."
Police said, in the first place,
they did not believe Haskin could
have driven in his automobile to
Oregon City and back between
4:45 p. m. and 6:45 p. m., the
former hour the time he said he
left Salem- and the latter the
hour at which he told his story
at police headquarters here.
Incident Not Sees
"We investigated this case
thoroughly, talked with everyone
we could find who might have
seen Haskin when he said he was
stopped by two men or who might
have seen the woman he says
they picked up at 12th and Court
streets," Officer E. C. Charlton
said. "There were people around
at the time but they say they
saw no one. We also checked ev
erywhere for the car the kidnap
ers were supposed to have left
here, disabled, and couldn't find
a trace of it."
Charlton said that whereas
Haskin said his abductors did not
smoke during the trip, he found
cigarette ashes spread over tha
floor mat in the back of Haskln's
sedan, undisturbed excepting for
the apparently fresh footprints of
a man. "which couldn't have last
ed from Oregon City."
Charlton said, however, the in
vestigation would be continued.
