Provision of school support by
the state has developed into quite
game of ping-pong.
In 1942 the people voted to di
vert all the surplus of income tax
receipts to school districts. The
1943 legislature, bounced the ball
back by limiting the district take
to a possible $5,000,000.
In 1944 the people defeated a
proposed constitutional
amend-
ment to establish a substantial
state fund for school support.
. The 1945 legislature is setting
money wiui f v t
tached, the same to be submitted
: to the people. THus the legislature j
is bouficing back to the 'people
again.
. Maybe that's the play, batting
the ball back and forth between
voters and legislature.

mal agreement on what to say to
Argentina, it was learned on high
authority.
The statement, which is expect
ed on Thursday, the last day of

phrased, however.
The main peints will be:
1.. Expression of regret at Ar

American conference.
2. Hope that Argentina will be
able to put herself in a position
to sign; the Mexico City resolutions
ana rejoin the American system.
3. Hope that Argentina will be
able to put herself in a position
to joi4 the united nations, which
means a. declaration of war.
4. Provision for consultation
among uie zu otner republics to
deader whether Argentine . acts
actually constitute a sincere change
in position. "
Meanwhile, delegates were sche

j By Wendell Webb
: Two of the. most controversial
measures of the 43rd legislature
were j killed Tuesday the plan
(HB 232) for the so-called three-
way method of ; workmen's com
pensation insurance, and the pro
posal (SB 271) to split up eastern
and ' Southern Oregon senatorial
districts. i !
On the affirmative side; the sen
ate completed legislative action on
the plan to borrow $1,500,000 from
the irreducible school fund for a
state office building, by' passing
house! bill 312 with a vote of 22
o 8.
Both the senate, which defeated
the reapportionment measure 18
to 12 and the house, which ap
proved a senate resolution SJR 8)
adding the secretary of state and
the state treasurer to the presi
dent of the senate and speaker of
the house in the line of succes
sion to the governor, completed
full calendars.' j
Terms Are Specified
The house also approved the
senate Joint resolution (SJR 17)
providing that terms of legislators
shall run . until ; the biennial ses
sion fefter the general election-
not just until such election.
The house also disposed of the
bill (HB 401) extending from six
months to one year the time in
which, workmen may file actions
to recover overtime pay under the
wage-hour statute, passing the
measure 51 to 7.
The move (HB 232) to provide
a three-way method (state, priv
ate or employer) of carrying work
men's compensation insurance was
defeated after a two-hour debate
n the house.

ReD. Manlev -Wilson echoed a
similar belief and said that open -
