Bill to Name
Inmate Types
1 The State Board of Control
Tuesday announced it would pre
sent a bill to the current legisla
ture providing for , the type of
prisoners -who may be received
at the new intermediate correc
tional institution. .
The bill was drafted by Assist
ant Attorney General Wolf D.
Von Otterstedt along lines recom
mended by the intermediate in
stitution advisory committee.
Judges, in determining sen
tences to'' the correctional institu
tion, must consider age, prior
criminal record, - reformability,
education and family background
of the defendant Pre-sentence
investigations are permitted when
deemed necessary.
A correctional .classification
board, to supervise and control
transfer of inmates between the
Oregon state penitentiary, the
MacLaren School for Boys and
the new institution, is provided
in the bill.
j This board would be composed
of the chairman of the State
Board of Parole and Probation,

fication board either jto, the Mac
Laren School or the correctional
institution. . It also) authorizes
transfer of any inmates of 'the
correctional institution either to
the penitentiary or the MacLaren
School for Boys.

Secretary of State Earl T. New-

on persons sent to the correction
al institution.
Officials of the Oregon Prison
1 Association said they supported

marily for the rehabilitation of
youthful offenders.

Oregon, Wed., March 2, 1955
Brown asserted at a general
meeting of the committee that
heads of subcommittees were
operating in the same old way,
making piecemeal reductions in
departmental budgets without lop
ping off services entirely.!
The senator's blast came after
progress reports from subcom
mittee heads revealed they had
succeeded in making only 2 and
per cent cuts in the budgets
they had considered. j i
Another Four Weeks . i
Reports from subcommittee
chairmen indicated it would be
another four weeks before they
have finished the job of pruning,
through the budgets. j j
Several other legislative com
mittees took stock of their prog
ress Tuesday, pigeon-holed bills,
formed, subcommittees and, in a
few cases, passed out minor bills.
The House agricultural commit
tee, headed by Rep. Herman
Chindgren (R), Molalla, recom
mended that the House pass a bill
to allow the State Agriculture De
partment to determine and regu
late grades and standards for wal
nuts and filberts. !
Gasoline Refund Tabled I
The House highways committee
Tuesday tabled a bill by Rep.
Lloyd . Haynes, Grants Pass,
that would require the state to
refund gasoline taxes to school
districts that own and operate
their school buses. I
The vote was 8 to 1, with Hay
nes dissenting. l
The committee recommended
for passage, legislation that: would
j e m o v e ambulances from the
emergency vehicle classification.
Ambulances still' could be
equipped with flashing red lights
and siren, but would have to ob
serve all traffic regulations, in
cluding stop signals.
Chairman Robert L. Elfstrom
(R), Salem, said he would name
a sub-committee to study and re
port on four bills designed to con
trol, regulate or license bill
boards. The committee held a
public hearing on the four bills
last week.
Surprise Move
The perennial bill to validate
certain marriages was tabled in
a surprise move by the House
judiciary committee Tuesday.
Each legislative session a simi
lar bill is. usually passed to make
legal those marriages of persons
who didn't wait the required six
months after a divorce to re-mar
ry. - ;
Some legislators think the wait
ing period should be reduced, and
Judiciary Chairman George Lay
man (R), Newberg, said he Just
didn't think the usual validating
bill is the proper approach to the
problem. ( . .
To Be Put Under Oath ;
In another new committee pro
cedure, Sen. John P. HounselL
chairman of the Senate alcohol
committee, said it had been decid
ed to put all persons under oath
when appearing before that com
mittee. I
Thel 1953 Legislature authorized
committee chairmen to subpoena
witnesses and put them f under
oath, but the first time this was
done was in last week's alcohol
hearing' at which charges were
made that attorneys charged exor
bitant fees to handle liquor li
cense 'cases, r

About Inf roductioiis-Again
You will probably recall (sure, you will!) that on July 26,
1954, we introduced our new member-agency in Springfield.
Today wc would like to introduce the newest member of the
Huggins organization, the W. R. McDonald Agency in Portland.
The Portland office will continue for the present time tinder
the name of the W. R. McDonald Agency and will be man
aged by co-owner Robert Thompson. Bob, as he is affection
ately known to hit friends (he is also known as "Bob" to
those whp are not his friends) has had a number of years' ex
perience wjth the General Insurance Company and is well
qualified to handle all types 'of insurance, both business and
personal, i - j
Multiple locations makes available to onr clients three offices
between Portland and Springfield in the Valley, and four
offices between Coci Bay and the California border. Another
advantage to our clients in these various locations is that it
makes available company representation that we otherwise
might not have . ;
So if any of our Salem friends should move to an area in
which we are represented, they will find the same prompt and
friendly service to which they are accustomed here at home.
(We find it difficult to be BOTH "prompt" and "friendly' but
one of us is a sprinter and the other a handshaker, which
makes it easy!) So . . . there you are . . .
