Rep. Lyle D. Thomas, Pallas, committee chairman, said the com mittee would work to get the bill passed as early in the session as possible. The bill provides $50 per year of state support for each school census child.' The bill will provide for the following distribution: $500,000 for school administra tion. $7,000 000 on a teacher pupil basis, with $450 for each teacher, and the rest of the $7,000,000 on the average daily attendance basis. $1,000,000 for transportation on the basis of one cent per mile for each pupil. $6,000,000 on the basis of need, this formula to be worked out lat er. The equalization aid or feature will provide money to those school districts which are determined to need the money most desperately. Need of Room For Vocational Training Cited Necessity for additional voca tional training facilities in Ore gon and a more practical setup in the animal husbandry department of the Oregon State college was discussed by the house military and veterans affairs committee at a meeting Wednesday afternoon. Special reference was made to . the Klamath Falls marine bar ' racks for which the state board I of education is now negotiating j with the war assets administra i tion. Several members indicated I that they favcred acquisition of the Klamath Falls plant. Rep. C. L. Lieuallen of Pendle ton advised the committee that ' under existing conditions instruc ' tion in the animal husbandry de j partment of Oregon State college j was restricted largely to books I and was not a spractical as de sired by rvny of the students and instructors. He urged that a joint ! committee of the senate and house 1 be appointed to conduct an in- vestigation of the animal hus ' bandrv division. A bill of far reaching legal sig nificance, which would provide supervision of all lower courts by the Oregon state supreme court, is expected to appear in the state senate within a few days. Sen. Allan Carson, Salem, one of the bill's sponsors, said Wed nesday the bill, if passed, would remove many court procedure rules from state law and give the highest state court the power to prescribe such procedural mat ters. Modelled on the federal court practice, which has been in effect since congress empowered the U. S. supreme court to supervise pro cedure of lower federal courts, the . proposed Oregon court changes would serve to streamline the state's court system, Carson stated. It would not. he emphasized, af fect the makeup of courts, their jurisdiction or jury trial rights. Under such a system the su preme court of the state would be in a position to direct, for instance that all justice of the peace courts operate in a regular courtroom and otherwise revise their operation in line with recent widespread de mands for improvement of jus tice courts. Justice courts figured directly in another bill which was being pre pared yesterday for early submis sion to the state legislature. It was understood this bill is virtually the same as a bill which passed 1 the house but was lost in the sen ' ate in the last session, providing for regular salaries for all jus tices of the peace and constables, i and other changes. Higher Grade Of Ice Cream Soon Possible i ' Ice cream will be better even if possibly a bit fattening after. June 30. 1 Officials of the state depart- j ment of agriculture said Attorney , General George Neuner, in re- i sponse to a query, had declared that under the language of the state's emergency legislation the prewar ice cream sttndards could ' be restored six months after ces sation of hostilities which were i declared ended last December 31 by presidential proclamation. The wartime standard for plain ice cream was 8 per cent butter fat. After June 30 the state's standard of 12 per cent will be i restored. The agricultuial department said, however, that Oregon man ufacturers had been working back toward prewar standards for some time and seme products al- 1 ready were higher (n butterfat content.

Harvey Wells, Portland, whose record of tiine regular and four special sessions makes him dean of the legislature. said ! Wednesday the current session is "the best one I have served in." He said there is no reason to take stock in pessimistic reports that the session would be unduly long. "If they get the bills in." he said. '"there will be no trouble about getting out within a rea sonable time. Experience will show up.''

Work Needed For Prisons, Senator Says "Oregon penal institutions would be better off it prisoners were kept busier," it was declared Wed nesday by Sen. Frank H. Hilton. Portland, chairman of Gov. Earl Snell's interim committee which studied state and county institu tions and arranged for a federal survey of the prisons. Hilton said he was introducing to both the houe and the senate a joint resolution pointing out the need for employment in useful occupation of prisoners in state and county prisons. He said there would be recom mended a number of jobs to which prisoners could be assigned, both to keep them busy and to save the state money. The work contem plated would not encroach " upon union labor, he added. Hilton said that committeemen visited pepal instiution in neigh boring states as well as in Ore gon, and came to the conclusion that useful work could be per formed by the prisoners in Ore gon. He cited the practice in other states of having prisoners manu facture highway signs, auto li cense plates and materials used in state institutions. Hilton's committee report is ex pected to reach the legislature next week. Tho S tatman. Sal am. Oroqoa. Thursday.
