Come to Session
By CliAYTON V. BERNHARD
(Associated Press Staff Writer)
Legislative neophytes, like
freshmen in any other situation
have some ideas which to the in-!
itiated sound amusing, but they
will come out and many of them
will be argued on the floor of tne,
assembly and -others will be incor-j
porated in various measures. t
A new member of the 1937 leg-f
islature from Multnoman came;
here tlo look for a place to live foil
the duration of the session. He was;
surprised to learn he could not
tin a fnrniahPd TinnnA Tor ma iam-t
Uy for the two months. j"
"Why..I should think saiem
would supply ns with places to
live, or the state should make arf
rangements if it wants us to come
down here." he remarked to A
veteran legislator and others.
It was explained to him that
places to live were scarce, partic.
ularly for such a snort! time as a
legislative assembly, 'j f
"Much put out by the informa
tion, the new member retortea:
f "Well. In that case I will stay
home and there will be no repre
sentation as' far as J, am coni
cerned " i I
The older member smiled, and
replied: -
"That wouldn't make anyone
mad. Do you think for a minute
the people of the state care if we
stay home? They would prefer It.?
i
But the" conversation did em
phasize one situation, noticeable
in the past but. a major problem

Liitefisk Dinners Will Be Served
After All by Women at Silverton
SILVERTON, Dec. 1 Silver ton
will not, after all, be 'short of
luteflsh. A new supply has reach
ed Silverton merchants, and fol
lowing the appearance of the
newspaper story. Sunday; describ
ing Silverton's predicament, Clif
ford Rue, president . of ,the local
chamber of commerce.'! received
a telegram from a Portland firm,
offering assistance to Silverton.
: Mrs; Oscar Lee announced Mon
day that plans were all under way
or the Calvary luteflsh dinner to
be .held Friday, "December 4. In
fact, Mrs. Lee reports there will
this year. Legislators and follow
ers of the session will find it diffi
cult to find places to stay during
this session. Hotels are refusing
any more reservations and apart
ments are filled; All suitable places
have been taken. Salem's housing
facilities for a state capital are
apparently insufficient. j
Not only is the housing situa
tion becoming serious, but office
Space for the fast-growing depart
ments of the -state nere presents
an ever-increasing problem. It is
doubtful that the 1937 legisla
ture will appropriate money for a
new office building, and the new
capitol structure will provide very
little additional space to take care
of the overflow. : ,
One solution presented Tuesday
by a Salem resident, now an offi
cial of the state, sounds plausible.
It was, "Let private business erect
an office building undejr state su
pervision and charge Ten tar on a
small interest basis. It would not
only relieve the housing, but would
prove a good Investment for the
builders-and the state could take
an option to . purchase at any
time." j
The state now Is paying about
$25,000 in rent. Within a short
time, with more space needed and
with present rate Increases threat
ened, the state will pay f 30,000 a
year rental in Salem alone.
The official figured this was 5
per cent on a $600,000 investment.
Such an office building would be
Insufficient. He then .conjectured
the state could, by legislative ap
propriation, take over the build
ing at any time.' This, at least, ia
another proposal which will be
presented the legislature. ' z
