The house of representatives refused Tuesday to reconsider an indefinitely postponed bill to provide a 12-hour day, (50-hour week for employes of state institutions and later defeated a bill to raise the minimum pay, for attendants and nurses to $115 a month. The vote on reconsidering the hours bill was 30 to 27, but a two thirds majority is required to take up a measure indefinitely post poned. Rep. Henry Semon (D-Klam-ath) said the budget deficit would be increased from $500,000 to $1, 000,000 if the salary minimum bill passed. Semon, whose ways and means subcommittee reported both bills out unfavorably, said that sal aries of 396 employes now total ling $600,340 would be increased to $1,104,000. Salaries now aver age $60 a month. v The house defeated the pay rise 31 to 28 and then indefinitely postponed the measure 34 to 25. The house passed and sent to the governor a bill to appropriate $10,000 for use of the Oregon de partment, Disabled American Veterans of the World War to se cure the national convention in Eugene in 1942. Rep. Alex Rennie (R-Benton) said the convention, if secured, would bring two or three thous and veterans to Oregon. If the convention is not held in Eugene the money will be returned to the state. The house passed a measure which would remove Benton county from the second - judicial district (Benton, Coos, Curry, Douglas, Lane and Lincoln coun ties) and place it in a new dis trict with Linn county. Linn was removed from a joint district with Marion in a previous bill. The measure now goes to the senate. The house voted an additional appropriation of $120,000 for pay ment of legislative expenses to add to a previous $50,000 appro priation. "I think this is the worst bill to come out of the ways and means committee, but so long as we have to run this legislature I guess you'd better pass it," said Angus Gibson, (R-Lane), chair man of the ways and means com mittee. The house indefinitely post poned 34 to 22 a bill to make lumber and slabwood warehouse receipts subject to labor liens. Garbage Dumping Reward Planned A suggestion that Marion coun ty pay $10 for information lead ing to the arrest of individuals throwing garbage or other rub bish on private property along county roads, or along road rights of way, was referred Monday to the district attorney for his opin ion of its legality by the Marion county court. The court was informed by County Judge Hewlett, that George Grabenhorst, local realtor, had made the original suggestion because of increased prevalence of indiscriminate garbage dump ing along country roads. Members of the court expressed themselves as favorable to the action. The county has previously found . it necessary to send road crews to clean up unsightly ac cumulations of trash and garbage at extra expense to the county road fund. weeds grow in every beer ... and our right to make it. We want them cleaned up because they endanger the 13,238 jobs and -$11,541,550 payroll created by beer in Oregon since re-legalisation. Beer contributed $017,020.86 last year in taxes in this state. These benefits are worth preserving; You can help us, if you will, by (1) pat ronizing only the reputable, legal places that sell beer and by (2) reporting any law violations to the duly constituted law enforcement authorities.
