Huge Building Plan Outlined To Committee K recommendation for a 12 year, $42,000,000 program for new buildings on campuses and at state institutions came from a sub group of the joint ways and means committee Tuesday. Of the total, $8,000,000 would be appropriated from the state's gen eral fund. Remainder would come largely from a proposed two-cent cigaret tax which would be re ferred to the voters at the general election in 1950.. Of the $8,000,000 general fund appropriation $((,000,000 would go to the state board of higher education for con struction at the higher educational centers and $2,000,000 to the state board of control for state risti tu ition construction. Sen. Dean Walker suggested that building fund expenditures be re stricted to $5,000,000 until such time as the voters approved or re jected the cigaret tax, but no defi nite action was taken. Rep. Alex Barry also said he favored a cut in emergency expenditures to $5, 000,000. The buildings would have to be approved by the state emer gency board before construction could begin. First ones on the list, would be: Science building and laboratory at the University of Oregon. Library at Oregon College of Education. Medical Dental unit at Univer sity of Oregon Medical school. Library and classroom building at Southern Oregon College of Ed ucation. Library and museum at Eastern Oregon College of Education. Animal science and dairy food Industry building at Oregon State college. The first state institutions to receive new buildings would be the prison and the state - hospi tel. . The ways and means committee approved a resolution providing lor creation of an interim legisla tive group to conduct a complete study of the public assistance pro gram. Expenses of the current legisla tive session were estimated at $683,000, of which a bill approori ting $475,000 was reported out by xne committee. A bill levying an additional tax on beer and other alcoholic bev erages was laid on the table. Senate Votes Down Move To Bar Dam The senate by a vote of 16 to 13 Tuesday thwarted a last-minute effort. to stop construction of the $12,000,000 Deschutes power dam near Madras. The measure involved would have created an interim commit tee to investigate dams on tribu taries of the lower Columbia river. It would have barred building dams on those rivers, except the Willamette river, until the com mittee reported its findings to the 1951 legislature. It was the second proposal aimed at the Deschutes dam. The house earlier in the session de feated a similar measure. Sen. Robert Holmes, Gearhart, chairman of the senate fishing in dustries committee, urged passage of the resolution, saying the dam construction would destroy salm on and steelhead spawning grounds, and that the dam would do little toward solving central Oregon's power shortage. Sen. Frederick Lamport, Salem, attacked the measure, branding it as the work of commercial fishing interests.
