Other Use for
Capital piitlay
Fund Studied
"Unless the ways and means
committee can obtain additional
revenues or use some of the funds
recommended for. capital outlays
it is apparent that many proposed
appropriations outside'; the budget
will - have i to be refused'. Rep.
Henry Semon, chairman of ; the
house ..ways and means committee,
declared Monday! f -, ; -
Regarding the suggestion that
some of the money proposed for
capital outlays be used for other
purposes, Semon; said that even
though all of the capital outlay
appropriations recommended in
the budget, are approved only a
small part of the total could be
used until the close of the war.
It was pointed ; out-ihat several
large appropriations" .for capital
outlays at the 1943 legislative ses
sion have not been used due to the
inability of the state to obtain pri
orities and because of the man
power shortage, f i ;

Galled for in Senate Measures
' I ? . - By Isabel Childs - ' I ' .
j . i- City Editor: Th futemmn : -: i i; '
The senate moved into "big money" legislation Monday With in
troduction there of bills to authorize) construction ttt limited-access
highways, airports and landing strips as adjuncts of the state highway
system and new buildings at the state hospital here from funds up to
$2,000,000 borrowed from the industrial accident commission.
- The limited access bill, brought in by the roads and highways
SAM. ' A. ' 4.1 ' A m mm m
commiuec si we request oi me
Portland chamber of commerce
and the Oregon Roadside council,
makes specific provision for farm
ers jvith properties in the areas
surrounding such highways to have
access lo, them. "- '
Bill Once Defeated " , ,
Lacktof such a provision is said
to have defeated a similar bill in
the 1941 session of the legislature.
Designed to eliminate hazards
created J where a number of ve
hicles leave and. enter streams of
traffic It roadside stands and fill
ing stations, the bill ' would per
mit : the highway . commission in
purchasing rights-of-way for new
roads to buy the right of access,
thus preventing establishment of
drive-iii businesses along the high
ways.: State' Highway Engineer R.
H. Baldock pointed out Monday
that such a law "is heeded mostly
near cities,' as in the wide open
spaces j there ; aren't many such;
developments.
Air Strips Proposed
The highway commission would
use its facilities to purchase, by
eminent domain if necessary, prop
erty for airports, aviation, fields
or landing strips in conjunction
with the state board of aeronau
tics, counties or other political
subdivisions, under a bill intro
duced by request through the, roads
and highways committee.
Highway commission funds
would hot be used, although the
commission would be empowered
to - construct and maintain such
landing? fields at cost of other
agencies." . - .
State! industrial accident com
mission' funds, not to exceed $2,
000,000,' invested in new building
or buildings for the state hospital
here, would draw three per cent
interest; under provisions of a bill
introduced by Senators Walter
Pearson , and Thomas Mahoney,
Multnomah county. The board of
control I would be authorized to
Issue bands to repay the commis
sion -at 1 a specified amount per
