A nd Apportionment
Bills Due
Highway Group in
' Both Houses to
Be Sponsors
Neuberger to File
Measure Revising
Representation
By PAUL H. . HAUSER, Jr.
i i The controversial truck bill to
Increase length limits of trucks
on Oregon highways from 50 to
- 60 feet and the weight limits
from' 54,000 to 68,000 pounds
will be Introduced today by the
nigh way committees of both
houses at the request of the state
highway commission. The bill
was- endorsed by Governor
Charles A. Sprague.
.; Another bill of major signifi
cance and sure to be bitterly con
tested, to appear today will be
a legislative reapportionment
measure' which Representative
Richard L. Neuberger (D-Mult-nomah)
will introduce. Its prin
cipal effect will be to increase
Multnomah county's house dele
gation from 13 to 19 and the
county's senate membership from
six to nine.
: The reapportionment would be
accomplished, Neuberger said,
"by consolidating districts now
over-represented, mostly in east
ern Oregon." He pointed out that
while Multnomah county has one
legislator for each 22,000 per
sons, some districts in other sec
tions of the state have a legis
lator for each 5000 persons.
Neuberger said a provision of
the state constitution that pop
ulation should determine the dis
tribution of legislators has been
violated" with respect to Mult-'
lomah county "for nearly a" gen
eration." (Turn to Page3, Col. 7)

During the 1939 session (com

so were the windows. It was as
difficult to get one open in the
house as it is supposedly difficult
to open a Pullman window. Fur
thermore, there were no axes han

and opening all the windows.

Kellogg Bandit
Foiled at Bank
Two Husky Idaho Miners
Battle With Robber;
New Yorkers Kill
KELLOGG, Idaho, Jan. 14.-
-A couple of husky miners, who
wouldn't be "scared" by a would
be bandit's pistol broke up a day
light robbery attempt at the Web
er bank of Wardner, the oldest
bank in the Coeur d'Alenes min
ing district, this afternoon.
Archie McPhail, serving his
first day as sheriff of Shoshone
county, said the bank had stayed
open late to cash- pay checks.
The man, whom the sheriff
said - gave the name of George
Kelly, 25, of New York City,
forced Charlotte Matson, teller,
and Mrs. Audrey Jenkins, assist
ant cashier, to line up against the
wall and scooped np about 11200
in the cage.
As he turned to flee, the sher
iff said, ,Mrs. Jenkins husband.
Harry and William Furze, both
Bunker Hill employes, entered
the bank lobby and disregarding
orders to line up, dived at the
robber. .
The pistol jammed after one
wild shot and the robber was
overpowered, but not until Fure
had been cut on the head by the
clubbed weapon, the sheriff
added.
NEW YORK, Jan. H.JP)
Two young payroll bandits bro
thers coldly shot to death a pro

raced onto crowded Fifth avenue,
terrorized throngs of noon - day
shoppers, killed a patrolman and
sent a bullet into the throat of a
taxi driver.
a motion filed yesterday afternoon
by Maynard's attorney asking
that the- beverages held as evi
dence be removed from the Juris

In an accompanying affidavit,
Maynard stated that the liquor
confiscated , came from compart
ments designated by the names
of private owners, and that these
names also apeared on the bot
tles themselves.
"I. as the owner ot the Webfoot
club, the affidavit continued,
swear that such alcoholic bever
ages, each as designated by indi
vidual names, are owned by such
individuals and are not my prop

ers have mad a demand on me tor
the return ot such beverages.

Judge Hewlett Declares
Money Wasted; Wants
Legislative Action ;
The Marlon county dog control!
board, ordered abolished by the!
Marion county court at Its first
meeting last week, rose as : up
from the dead yesterday with the;
filing of an official, opinion on its
status by District Attorney Miller;
B. Hayden. i j
The board, on which the eOun-j
ty spends $150 annually in per!
diem fees, is a creation of the leg-j
Islature, the district attorriey
wrote In response to an inquiry;
by the court, and, in the absence
Of specific authority; cannot; be
abolished by action of the county!
court. - f
! "The act would have to be
amended giving the court specif
ie authority to abolish said dis4
trict," ' Hayden wrote In response
to an Inquiry by the court.
The opinion cited the enabling
act of the legislature, in which the
last statute' was enacted in 1939;
which requires the county court
of any county to declare a dog
control district in the full county!
on petition of not less than 50
sheep or goat owners, or any oth-
er livestock or poultry owners in
the county.
Such a petition was filed in
Marion county on October 1251
1935, it states, and on the follow
ing November 1 the dog- control
district of Marion county was de-
clared by the county court. 1 i
Since no provision of law spot
cifically authorizes the county
court to abolish such a dog con
trol district and its board of su
pervisors, the general rule of law
is that no municipal body such as
the county can abolish an office
created by the legislature. The
opinion was filed in the district
attorney's name' and with h 1 i
written approval by Talbot Ben
nett, deputy district attorney;
In view of the district attor
ney's opinion. County Judge 1 Le4
roy Hewlett indicated, the matter
of the board's abolition will pro
babl ibe brought to tin ' attention
of the legislature at its present
session.
He i characterized the money
spent on the control board itself,
as distincs from the district con
trol officer, as largely wasted
from the point of view of the
county's welfare as a whole, and
expressed the desire to see the ex
penditure eliminated as soon as
possible.
Abolition of the dog control
board ; was a part of the Judge's
original program on taking office
last week, and was acted upon
with the first business handled by
the reconstituted court.

RAF Successes
Shipping Losses Smallest
in Weeks; Italo Editor
Claims Sea Victory

Captures Duce General
Hiding Near Sea
(By The Associated Press)
A British air ministry state
ment that RAF night fighters are
beginning to show results
against nocturnal raiders and the
admiralty's announcement of one
of the smallest week's shipping
losses of the war bolstered hopes
of Britons tonight of overcom
ing eventually the two chief men
aces of their embattled Island.
Tuesday night's massive fire
bomb raid on the southwest port
of Plymouth, the target of 10,000
incendiaries and "many tons" of
high explosives, showed, however,
that Britain has far to go in cop
ing with the night raiders and
the air ministry admitted as
much.
Numbers of Squadrons
Steadily Increasing
The number of night fighter
squadrons "is steadily increasing.
it said, but added that progress
necessarily was slow because the
pilots have to be taught an en
tirely new technique.
A double line of British con
voys loaded with troops and sup
plies to replace losses in north
Africa and Greece has been bat
tered by a five-day axis sea and
air offensive in the Mediterran
ean, Fascist Editor Vlrginlo Gay-
da reported Tuesday.
All told, official and unofficial
Italian sources say that 15 "en
emy" vessels have been . sunk or
damaged.
The fascist high command it
self has placed the score" at . 10
British wsjrships bit. Of: which a
submarine and a cruiser were re
ported sunk. Tuesday's war bulle
tin said the "enemy" submarine
was sent to the bottom January
by Italian planes and motor
torpedo boats.
The crew of a British motor-
boat, directed by patroling air
craft, has snatched the Italian
blackshlrt General Francesco Ar
gentlno from a hiding place ' by
'the water's edge" in North Af
rica near Tobruk Libya, British
middle eastern headquarters an
nounced today.
The number of Italian generals
declared to have been seized in
the fighting in Egypt and the
British counter-offensive in Libya
thus was increased to eleven.
Argentino was identified by
the British as commander of Ital
ian forces at Sidl Barranl, Egypt.
the' first major fascist base to fall
in the desert campaign. He com
manded a blackshlrt (political
militia) division, having gone into
that service from the regular
army.
Search for a large party of
Italian generals and senior of
fleers, which already lias proved
successful, still is being carried
out by Hurricane aircraft ot the
RAF," It was announced.
