Courthouse Finds Favor at Hearing One Dissenting Voice Is Heard; 1600 Names on Petitions Offered Plans to build a new Marion county courthouse leaped the first hurdle, the initial public hearing, yesterday morning with but one citizen expressing oppo sition. William H. Niccolson of Salem was the only one of 30 citizens present who voted against the $550,000 project. The Marion county bar, asso ciation favors the new building movement despite the fact that if the old courthouse were re tained and it burned down, the lawyers would "reap a golden harvest" from cases instituted to reestablish property boundary lines, Fred A. Williams, presi dent, told the county court. Petitions bearing more than 1600 signatures of citizens urg ing the court to proceed were presented by C. A. Sprague. The petitions were checked only until 430 names of taxpayer-citizens had been found, since only 391 were required by law. The next step wilt be the call ing of a special election Novem ber 2 at which the people will be asked to authorize construc tion of the courthouse and to adopt means for financing the project. A second public hear ing identical with yesterday's will be held October 18 to com ply the second of two laws gov erning such procedure. Club 12 to Meet Townsend club No. 12 will meet at Wesley Hall at 7:30 o'clock to night. iNURJtliTM Tomoco Co vS&fiL : in Best oi Them Golf Tourney Is In Second Round Activity Hampered Sunday Due to Statehouse Team Absence Because nearly every remain ing first round match involved at least one player who was on the statehouse team which trav eled to Kelso, there was little activity in the Salem Golf club's fall tournament on Sunday.

Tha Roosevelt administration set out today to hold next' year's acreage of major crops below the 1128-37 average. - Officials announced limitations with which farmers will have to comply to obtain federal benefit payments under the existing sojl conservation act. At the same time, they declared congress must enact new crop control legislation to insure ef fectiveness of the program. .In the absence of other legis lation," said Secretary Wallace, normal weather conditions over several seasons again will result in accumulation of burdensome surpluses." - H. R. Tolley, chief of the agri culture adjustment administra tion, added that any large group of farmers might upset the goal of the conservation program if they decided they could make more money by spurning govern ment payments and planting all the acreage they pleased. Congress already has agreed to give new farm legislation right- of-way at its next meeting, which may be a special session called by President Roosevelt this fall,' or the regular session starting next January. Granary Plan Viewed Wallace and other administra tion leaders believe the law makers could back up tlie present program with some marking quota system or tax, to establish posi tive production control. Tolley said the "goals" or acre age limit set up under the con servation program could serve also under an "ever-normal granary" system like that which Wallace urged unsuccessfully at the last session of congress. The granary plan is designed to stabilize supplies and prices of farm products by government loans on the surplus of major crops. Rigid crop control would be provided for use when stored supplies became so large they threatened to depress prices. The 1938 conservation program sets definite limits on the amount of major crops and especially of corn, cotton, tobacco, potatoes, rice and peanuts, which may be produced without disqualifying the farmer for benefit payments A national "goal" or acreage limit was established for all ma jor crops at 275,000 to 290,000 acres. This compares with an av erage of 305,000,00 acres in the 1928-37 period. Mt. Angel Hop Men Seek Boycott End Members of the Mt. Angel unit of the Oregon Hop Growers asso elation petitioned Governor Charles H.
