I "WAe cm fJb tie's const

Sheriff Anderson and City Po
lice Chief Harry Diamond and
aides' left Sacramento yesterday
with the Wilsons. The men were
manacled and riding in separate
cars. They stayed last night in
Klamath Falls and late this morn
ing started north again.
Waiting outside the building to
night in one of the parked cars
were Mrs. Eunice Wilson, the mo
ther of the accused men; her son,
Grant; and Portland Attorney Ir
vin Goodman.
Goodman has represented Tur
man Wilson in previous trials. The
attorney is undecided whether to
take the defense in this case and
said I tonight he merely wants to
talk to them.
The Wilsons were arrested in
Sacramento last Thursday in the
street abduction and murder of
the 18-year-old girl March 19. Her
body was found March 26 in the
Wind river, nude and battered.
ana tne propriety oi me uormau
statement forecasting a stale oi
Oregon deficit of at least $32,
000,000 for the next biennium.
Dorman predicted state revenues
would be over $50,000,000 short
in that bienmum if voters should
approve a veterans' bonus and
basic school tax increase.
Estimates Defended
The budget director defended
his statistics after reading Pear
son s criticism. (Dorman state
ment on page. 6.)
Treasurer Pearson maintained
it is the budget director's func
tion to tabulate proposed expen
ditures of state departments and
anticipated revenues but not to
include expenditures which have
not been voted.
"If the veterans bonus bill and
basic school support fund increase
are voted it will be a function
of the legislature to provide the
required funds," Pearson averred,
: Pearson branded the budget di
rector s statement as false pro
paganda to fool the people into
voting republican."
Tax Officials Assist
The budget director said he
was assisted in his reference to
income tax revenues by a subor
dinate of the tax commission,"
Pearson- continued. "I am sure
the statement did not receive ap
proval of Commissioner Ray
Smith, in charge of the state in
come tax : department, and was
not authorized by the state tax
commission.
One reason for changing the
personnel of the tax commission
was that the old commission was
always inaccurate in its state
ments of anticipated revenue. It
appears to me that the new com
mission should have a house
cleaning of some of its subordi
nates who are responsible for
some of the recent inaccurate
statements. If the commission
does not get rid of these subordi
nates it' will find itself back in
the same position as the old com
mission."
Pearson Claims Wealth
Pearson said his predecessor M
office, Leslie M. Scott, declared
not long ago that the vaults of
the Oregon treasury were bulg-l
ng with wealth. "That statement
was true when he made it and
even more true today," Pearson!
said. .
The state . of Oregon is not !
broke, nor is there much : chance
of its going , broke. Statements
such as those of the state budget
director impair and Injure the,
credit of the state and such
statements two years ago by oth
er republicans were the cause of
the state having to hold up the
sale of state bonds for a period
of time."
Pearson said it was appropriate
to point out to the people of Ore-;
gon that "we have just issued
$400,000 in bonds for reforestation
and obtained the money at a rate:
of 1.57 per cent interest, which
is tne cneapest rate of interest
the state of Oregon has ever had."
It is true thai the legislature
may have to change some of our
tax laws," Pearson averred, "but
we need no new taxes to meet the!
current obligations of the state."!

The jury is charged with decid

The jury of four women and

The case went to the jury more

however, had taken time out for

The statement followed Mon

Engineer R. H. Baldcjck that the
state's program for new road con
struction be curtailed! in order to
provide funds for repairs.
County road crews will continue
on their present five - day week

as resealing of road surfaces, must
wait until then because of lack of

Judge Murphy recalled that not

The justices, Shigeru Kuriyama

spent most of Monday and Tues

Both have expressed amazement
in their American tour at the high
standing enjoyed by American
lawyers. Kuriyama said Japanese
lawyers do not hold the same stat

change under the new court sys

whether or not laws were legal,
he said.

FIX A Authorized
Mousing Monies
WASHINGTON. April 4-(JP)-A $2,250,000,000 authorization for the
federal housing administration to
programs was agreed to late today
mittee.
The amount was a compromise
between the S 1,750,000,000 voted
by the senate, and the $2,750,000,-
000 approved by the house.
The agreement was announced
by Senator Maybank (D-SC) fol
lowing a lengthy closed door meet
ing which found the conferees still
at odds over, several other provi
sions of the omnibus housing bills
passed by the two chambers.
Maybank said another meeting
will be held tomorrow : ( 10 a.m.,
EST), if agreement can be reached
then on a report, he said, the
house conferees plan to bring it
up in the house on Thursday.
Maybank told a news conference
the conferees also agreed on these
provisions:
1. "$259,000,000 for FHA mort
gage Insurance for low cost houses
for sale in so-called distant subur
ban areas. The mortgage ceiling
for such houses is $5,600,000 cover
ing 95 per cent of the cost. "
The program was extended for
five years. The senate wanted to
extend it for only two years, while
the house wanted to make it per
manent.
X. $500,000,000 for FHA Insur
ance Of loans for apartments dwell
ings. The senate had authorized
$400,000,000 and the house $600,
000,0. The money will be used to cov
er applications received up to last
March 1. The senate had placed
the cut-off date at February 1. The
coverage Is up to 90 per cent of
the project, s provided in the
house bill. Projects covered are
those on file after former authori
zations were used up but before
the program ended.
S. $150,000,000 for direct leans
to GI's as provided by the senate
bill.
Also provided, but subject to a
major reservation, was an author
ization of $250,000,000 for the fed
era! national mortgage association
(Fannie Mae), to be used only
for purchase of existing mortgages
and not for new commitments. The
purpose Is to provide a market for
the securities so lenders have more
money to put out.
Maybank said approval Is con
tingent upon whether $25,000,000
of the amount can be earmarked
for construction loans for prefab
