'Round the State Property Seizure Charged in Suit PORTLAND WPD Gary A. Boedlgheimer, an Aumsvllle farm er, filed suit in Circuit Court here this week charging seizure of property while he was in military service. He asked $24,300 damages from Santlam Farmers Cooper ative and First National Bank of Oregon, claiming wrongful seizure of an irrigation system he had purchased on contract Boedigheimer aaid he had paid almost half the $4,500 contract before he was called into serv- Act Valid, Court Rules SALEM Wl The Oregon Su preme Court said Wednesday that a habitual criminal act providing for life sentences was not unconstitutional. The court ruled against John Tuel, an Inmate at the state penitentiary, who was sentenced to life imprisonment under a habitual criminal act In effect in 1020. In doing so, the court re versed a decision by Marion County Circuit Judge George A, Jones that the act under which Tuel was sentenced was uncon' stitutional. Tuel was sentenced to life Inv prisonmcnt for burglary after it had been shown he had three prior felony convictions. The constitutional provision In question was Article I, Sec tion IS, of the Oregon Bill of Rights, requiring that Oregon's sentencing laws have as their fcbject reformation and not re taliation. "But they do not require that reformation be sought at sub stantial risk to the people of the state," the high court said. The court said Tuel had been thought to bo reformed twice previously and released from confinement and "it was found that such a conclusion was erroneous." Tuel brought his appeal under the post-conviction act. ice in 1061' and claimed the seizure violated the Universal Military Training Act. Professor to Visit CORVALLIS Wl Ayaakira Okazaki, professor of forest management at University of Kyoto, Japan, will arrive at Oregon State University March 22 to be visiting lecturer in the School of Forestry during spring term. He will deliver a series of public lectures, conduct semi nars, and confer with forestry faculty members and students on forestry research and teach ing programs. Okazaki is being brought to the campus under the auspices of the Louis W. and Maud Hill Family Foundation of St. Paul, Minn. He is the seventh Inter nationally known visiting pro- lessor under the program. SALEM 01PD The Senate voted 18-11 Wednesday to ask the federal government to keep out of legislative apportion ment. Sen. Donald Husband, R-Eu-gene, said that contrary to re cent U. S. Supreme Court rul ings legislative apportionment in a matter for the states them selves to decide. The memorial went to the House.' where a cooler recep tion was likely. Husband noted Oregon jeaos the nation in apportioning its legislature on the "one person. one vote" principle. He con ceded that some states nave un fair apportionment, but said many others had re-apportioned in recent years. Equal Protection Opponents said the measure was aimed at weakening the equal protection provisions of the 14th Amendment and deny ing any remedy 'to the voter in unfairly apportioned states. Sen. Don Willner, D-Portland, aaid the memorial was an at tempt to "overrule 144 years of constitutional history" in which the Supreme Court has been considered the final interpreter of the nation's laws. Husband replied it was an ef fort to reestablish 144 years of policies against federal inter ference in states' business. Sen. Vernon Cook, D-Gresham, opposed the memorial and said such a change would leave states free to discriminate against certain voters. He said the memorial s intent also was against Oregon tradition. Those voting against the measure were Sens. Cook, Will ner, Chapman, Walfred Corbett, Alice Corbett, Fadeley, Hallockr, Huston. Monaghan, Naterlin, and Stadler. Technical Change A first step in revamping the handling of basic school money was taken Wednesday by the House. The change actually is a ohanoA In terminology, aimed at making" it easier for the Leg islature and the public to see just how much money the state is hinninl in fnr Dublic schools. The change has to do only with the way the money is ap propriated, not with the dis tribution formula that de termines how much goes to each school district. Under the old method, the Legislature for the current school year appropriated "$120 per census child between the ages of 4 and 20." Under the change, the same total sum would be described as "$153 per census child between the ages of 5 and 17." The clarification is considered important since the largest part of the state's revenue goes for education. More Realistic Rep. John Mosser, R-Beaver-ton, said it is much more real istic to talk about children ages 5-17. "We are trying to get a pub lic understanding of the real level of support we are provid ing at the state level," he said. Rep. Joe Rogers, R-Independ- ence, objected that the change would "erode the fund" and be inconsistent with other parts of the basic school formula. Rogers also noted that the figure cited in the appropriation never V OPEN SAT.

The change was accepted 53 6. The bill now goes to the House Tax Committee for a de cision on whether tax offset fea tures should be removed. . Later, it must go to Ways and Means, the committee that will decide how much money per child the state can afford. Senate President Ben Musa said Wednesday he would order Saturday morning sessions as soon as It became necessary to keep the calendar from becom ing jammed. They could start this Saturday. Afternoon sessions of the up per house will be called later in the session. Musa said, he did not want to call afternoon ses sions now because this would interfere with committee meet ings and slow the flow of bills. i: i ... complete Tok advantage of Zal ip clal price and nly lh not aatating fri-cook-irv war yon con own.
