This compares with the 230 mil lion dollars in surplus which Pres ident Eisenhower estimated back in January.. . The congressional economists said that reports through mid April indicate "that the federal budget will show an administra tive surplus of about Jwo billion dollars and a cash surplus of per haps four billion dollars for this spawned in the depression years." It is obvious, he wrote, that the whole scheme of the law is one for private, rather than pub lic, gain. A scheme fathered by highly organized groups of distri butors and retailers, interested not in the public weal, but only in their selfish ends. Fair. Trade laws, he said, com pel the public to pay higher prices in order to guarantee the retailer "a higher fixed and often unrea sonable profit." (Add. details Page 4, See. 1.)

The commissioners have no real say on salaries, but they face some decisions on how to prescribe examinations for new grades of police and fire officers as proposed in the new city pay plan. New Classlflcali.a Police Chief Clyde A. Warren explained the move to create i lieutenant classification new to the police force. Officer strength is stretched thin now, as policemen work a five-day week and no addi tional officers are available to supervise police shifts on present days-off, he said. In the fire department, reported Chief E. L. Smith, six additional officers in a new lieutenant grade would result if voters approve two ballot measures aimod at raising a fire alarm system, additional personnel and other items needed to win a better fire Insurance rating for Salem and thereby reduce insurance rates to the citizens. The civil service commissioners will have to decide whether to create a new examination in either case or whether to lump the lieu tenants with other classifications in single examinations. The three commissioners indicated reluc tance to establish too many types of examination, but they made no final decision. Atty. General RulesNorblad Piling Legal Congressman Walter Norblad is a legal candidate for Republican renomination to the U.S. House of Representatives, Atty. Gen, Rob ert Y. Thornton ruled Wednesday. State Rep. Richard E. Groener, Milwaukie Democrat, had chal lenged Norblad' s filing, contend-1 ing that Norblad had transferred his filing fee for governor to the congress race. . Groener contended that such a transfer of fees was illegal. He said that Norblad had been re funded his original fee, which he also contended was illegal. Norblad originally had filed for governor, but later withdrew and filed for reelection as representa tive. Thornton based his ruling on a receipt in the secretary of state's office. It showed that Norblad paid the filing fee for congress after getting a refund for the fee he had paid for governor. The fees were $100 in each case. bers in Mexico, Alaska, South Africa and several states, it was learned Wednesday. Orders al ready are on hand for more. The 63-watt sets, matching s receiving set 'which went into production in the Salem plant six months ago, are designed for mounting in cars.

The plant now produces 10 major products.

' The charges made by the Ore gonian call for a thorough official investigation," Thornton said in a statement to The Oregon States man. "In view of the fact that the charges have been directed in part against the Multnomah County District Attorney's office, it would appear inappropriate for the dis trict attorney to participate in this investigation.
