1939 Busy Year for Politicians;
Legislative Session Is Longest
In History; McNary for President
By PAUL W. HARVET, JR.
(Associated Press Writer)
Starting out with the longest legislative session in his
tory and winding up with Senator McNary running for the
presidency, Oregon had a busy year of politics in 1939 al
though it was expected it would be an "off-year."
The year also saw republicans in control of the state for
the first time since pre-depression days, with Charles A.
Sprague. Salem newspaper pub-O-
lisher. becoming governor when
the year had barely begun
The governor, who consented to
seek the republican nomination
the previous year to "prevent the
office from going to the demo
crats by default," gave most em
phasis daring his first year in of
fice to the importance of bring
ing new industries to Oregon and
of creating markets for Oregon
products.
To bring this about, he appoint
ed a 20-member economic coun
cil, which also will conduct re
search into industrial fields. This
was his theme in his inaugural
address almost a year ago. It still
is his theme.
The legislature, with republi
cans having overwhelming ma
jorities In both houses, was long
and drawn-out. Democrats
claimed it was leng because the
republicans lacked leadership. Re
publicans said it was long because
the previous democratic adminis
tration handed tnem a "phoney"
budget. Anyway, the joint ways
and means committee slaved for
60 days to make ends meet.
Finally, the legislature, after
being in session 66 days, save the
state a balanced budget. The state
also cut its debt to $38,718,085,
which means it will be out of debt
in I960 unless it issues new bonds.
Chief accomplishments of the
legislature were lsws granting
people's utility districts the right
to issue revenue bonds and re
quiring that they be taxed the
same as private utilities, boosting
the income tax by about 25 per
cent affective in 19 40, letting the
state parole board tlx minimum
sentences, and permitting school
districts to reorganize.
All in aU, the governor was suc
cessful, the legislature approving
14 of his recommendations and re
jecting seven. After the session.
he told the legislators that they
"rendered good service," praising
them because ne wild laws were
enacted, no burdensome taxes im
peed." The governor also launched the
candidacy ot Senator Charles L.
McNary in a speech to Oregon
Touug Republicans at The Dalles
October 7. Three weeks later Mc
Nary accepted, announcing he
would seek the nomination but as
sert lag he was doing so Just to
make sure that the farmers won't
be forgotten when the republicans
draw up their platform next year.
The way was paved during the
last few months of the year for a.
nationwide test of the Roosevelt
Garner struggle in the Oregon pri
mary election next May. The Com
monwealth federation started cir
culating petitions for President
Rooseveit. while former Gov.
Charles H. Martin, who said he
was retiring to private life when
Governor Sprague succeeded him.
is back in polities again carrying
the ball I in Oregon for Vice Pres
ident John N. Garner.
Another important political de
velopment occurred this week
when President ef the Senate Rob
ert M. Duncan of Burns, a repub
lican, was appointed circuit Judge
for Grant. Harney and Malheur
coutlea. This disappointed many
republican leaders who Jiad re
garded Duncan as their hope of
beating Rep. Walter M. Pierce.
The Duncan appointment ad
vanced Speaker ef the House Er
nest R. Fatland of Condon to
first in tine of succession to the
governor.
Many legislators believing busi
ness would take a nosedive In
lll and thus csuse greater un
employment, openly predicted a
special session would be needed
oeiore tne year ended to meet a
relief crisis.
Bat business snowed a remark
able spurt, the industrial payroll
for the five months ended Decem
ber 1 reaching a 10-year peak of
about tT2.aee.000. At the same
time, tne unemployment eompen-
saaon commission s Jobless bene
fit checks reach new low figures.
The. governor made a number
of important appointments during
the year. He appointed Edgar W.
Smith of Portland to the state
hoard of higher education; Huron
W. Cleugh ef Canyonvllle to the
highway coram las ion; Claude H.
Murphy of Albany as the state's
first real estate commissioner; a
new parole board; a new 11a nor
ecm mission which immediately
set about enforcing the liquor
laws to the letter; Or mood R.
Bean of Portlaad as public utilities
commissioner; Lloyd S. Smith of
Portland as state corporation
c am sa lesion er; Arthur A. Rogers
of Portland as state banking su
perintendent. He also reappoint
ed Sapertntendent ot .State Police
Charles P.. Pray.
The prosecution ef labor terror
ists was completed August 1 when
Ralph K. Moody, whom Governor
Martin had appointed as co
ordinator, resigned. : A total. of
110 persons had been arrested for
232 Crimea, out a few odds and
ends have yet to be cleaned up.
Albert Sari Keener, secretary of
Oregon ATL teamsters, entered
the state prison ip Jury to begin
serving a ! 2-year sentence for
complicity burning the West
Salem box factory on November
20, 1937. He got a Job on the
prison sawdust pile.
The state supreme court didn't
have such a busy year, principally
because ft didn't hear a single
case challenging the work of the
legislature. It did. however, up
hold Roaser's arson conviction,
outlaw theater bank nights, up
hold the 193 5 milk control law
and uphoIQ the 1939 peoples util
ity district law.
The state's prune Industry, sick
because of low prices and a large
crop, got help from Governor
Sprague when he appointed a
committee of 13 to study prune
marketing problems. He also gave
assistance to state, county and
municipal4 employes by appointing
a committee to work out a plan
to provide retirement pensions.
A parole scandal," wntch ap
parently has been forgotten.
broke last spring when the new
parole board charged that attor
neys had been accepting large
sums of money from prisoners on
promises that the attorneys would
"buy" paroles.
Oregon's national guard, recog
nized by the war department as
one of the nation's best, was in
creased by 913 "en, rising its
strength to 4,521. Oregon was
the first state to enlist its quota.
and it retained the largest num
ber of guardsmen in proportion
to population.
Construction of transmission
lines from Bonneville dam to Eu
gene and the new PUD law
spurred the fight for creation of
new utility districts. So far. the
public ownership fight has been
about a draw, public power ad
vocates losing in Lane county and
winning in Hood River county.
Msny elections will be held next
year.
The benefits of Bonneville
power will be passed on to north
ern Willamette valley consumers
next Monday when the Portland
General Electric and Northwest
ern Electric companies place lower
rates into effect. The lower rates
were approved a few days ago
by Public Utilities Commissioner
Ormond R. Bean.
The state penitentiary's new
lethal gas chamber, taking the
place of the gallows, got its first
test on January 20 when Leroy
Hershel McCarthy, 26-year-old
Portland slayer, was executed. A
committee of physicians said it
was more humane, and that being
executed by the gas is Just like
taking an anesthetic.
Work on the, M,M. 04)0 Wil
lamette valley flood control pro
ject began daring the year with
an initial $0,000,000 federal ap
propriation. Automobile owners
were heartened by the prospect
that the next congress may ap
prove a vast highway rebuilding
program as a national defense
measure. This would moan im
provement of the Pacific highway
and the Columbia River-Old Ore
gon Trail highway.
The union control law. passed
by the voters in 1838 snd which
prohibits picketing an employ
er's establishment unless there
is a dispute between the em
ployer and more than half of his
employes, was upheld by a three
Judge court In Portland. The de
cision was appealed to the state
supreme court, which is expected
to decide about next June. '

The prisoners made their es

Business Better
As 1940 Starts
(Continued from Page 1)
when orders were placed right
and left on the theory that the,
only certain effect would be high
er prices and it was a good idea
to buy, things leveled off some
what. Then business men began to
ask whether goods might not be
piling up as they did in 1937.
or in the early summer of 1933.
The precipitant slump in autumn
of 1927 was well remembered.
But orders continued to flow In,
not at the rate of the first flurry,
nevertheless at a ood pace. After
some setback, commodity prices
stiffened again In December.
So fears that business might be
just building up for another
quick slump largely vanished.
The underlying strength of cur
rent business, in the view ot
many, may be traced to the fact
that leaders in both Industry and
government were quick to apply
the teachings of past experience..
Warnings against the dangers
of runaway prices were sounded
an all sides. Purchasing agents
were urged to exercise restraint
Buyers evidently were quick te
heed, for after the first flurry.
commodity markets quieted down.
Prices have stiffened again here
and there, but in an orderly man
ner. It is also notable that Eng
land and Prance, recalling the in
flationary boom in "prices In 191 S
and 1110. were quick to put their
economies under control, and or
ganise their buying in a manner
to avoid bidding up prices.
Knox Offered Job
Of Navy Secretary
WASHINGTON. Jan. l.-CPV-
The Evening Star said today that
President Roosevelt offered the
office of secretary of the navy to
CoL Frank Knox, 193 C republican
nominee for vice-president, before
filling it last week by advancing
Assistant Secretary Charles Edi
son. "The offer of a cabinet office
to a republican," wrote the Star's
political expert, G. Gould Lincoln,
"was interpreted here as meaning
that the president desired the
closest cooperation of the whole
country in the face of the war
situation abroad in fact a desire
for whst might be considered a
coalition government."
Colonel Knox is publisher of
the Chicago Daily News.

WASHINGTON. Jan. l-(ffV
President Roosevelt will put it up
to congress this week to decide
whether federal expendltareg tor
relief and similar purposes should
bo reduced, an Influential admin
istration supporter predicted to
day. The administration adherent, a
senator who declined to be quoted
by name, said he had not dis
cussed the question directly with
Mr. Roosevelt, but that -he be
lieved the ehief executive would
tell tho reassembling: legislators to
do what they liked about cutting
outlays and retaining or raising
the 145,000,000,000 debt limit.
This Informant predicted that
congress would make no great re
duction in appropriations for. re-,
lief, farm benefits and the like,;
and he said the law-makers there
fore would bear the responsibility
for continued large-scale- spend
ing. Congress will reconvene at noon
Wednesday and at 2 o'clock will
hear Mr. Roosevelt deliver per
sonally his annual message on the
state of the union. ,
Any advice which be has to
give on financial matters proba
bly will be reserved for the bud
get message which j he will send
to the legislators the following
day.
Neither senate nor house has
much business in sight this week,
but the anti-lyncblng bill by Rep.
Gavagan (D-NY) is scheduled to
come up in the house next week.
House leaders of both major par
ties agreed today that this mea-
ture was sure to be passed in their
chamber after two or three days'
discussion. Senate opponents gave
notice, however, that it would
meet staunch opposition there.
"As far as I am concerned,"
Senator Connally (D-Texas) told
reporters, "there will be no antl
lynching legislation. There may
be a bill, but that Is not legis
lation." Connally, a member of the sen
ate finance committee, predicted
there would be no general tax bill
at the forthcoming session be
cause this was an election year.
He said he thought congress
would not enact a special tax to
meet extraordinary national de
fense outlays.
If the house passed a general
tax bill, the Texan added, he
would offer an amendment to it
to limit profits In case this coun
try became engaged in war.
Many legislators have already
reached the snow-covered capital
for the opening of the session, but
because this was New Year's day
few were at their offices.
Vice President Garner and Dem
ocratic Leader Rayburn of the
house arrived this morning. Ray
burn is to see Mr. Roosevelt to
morrow, and Garner is expected to
talk with the chief executive to
morrow or the next day.
The vice president returned to
the capital six pounds lighter than
when he went away. Friends said
he lost this poundage from his
mid-section during recent hunting
trips in Texas. He laughed and
chatted with newsmen but had
ncthing to say about politics, eco
nomics or social questions.

than ever of safeguards against
the 'depressing Influence of world
prices."
Wallace forecast a need for
these peace-time governmental
aids:
Efforts to sustain farm prices
by means of additional acreage,
price-supporting; comodity loans,
and subsidies to move exports at
world prices.
To critics of the administration
crop control programs, Wallace
had this to say:
"There is no question o going
back to laissez falre. For agri
culture the problem is simply to
get the nearest approach to a
permanent equitable farm ad
justment with the least drawback
i. national disadvantage. The
only way Is to continue 'broadly
along the path we already have
marked out."
