Sales Tax Bill Cuts Marion County Levies For District Schools The sales tax bill for school relief passed at the special session of the legislature on December 10 will reduce county tax levies approximately one mill and will cut $3,000,000 a year irom we scnooj district taxes w of the state according to an analy sis of the bill by State Superinten dent C A. Howard based on the state tax commission's estimates of the revenues it will produce. Receipts from similar . revenue measures in operation in other states Indicate that the Oregon bill will produce $4,000,000 annually. Seventy-five per cent of this sum, or $3,000,000, will be apportioned to the school districts In proportion to the number of classroom units, or the number of teachers required. This would amount to $400 per teacher-classroom unit, Blnce there are approximately 7500 such units in the state. On this basis a one- teacher school would received $400; two-teacher school would receive $800; and a five-teacher school would receive $2,000. The bill re quires the county assessor to cut from the district property tax levy the amount estimated to be re ceived from this fund. The remaining 26 per cent, or 11,- 000,000 will go to the county school funds of the counties on the basis of the assessed valuations as equalized by the state tax commission and the MARION COUNTY AVIATION CODE TO HAMPER WARFARE Washington, Dec. 21 (IP) The American aviation Industry could deliver only 30 combat planes in the first 30 days after a declaration of war, and its capacity would be even lurther impaired by imposition of a "new labor system," Col. E. V. Rtck enbackcr, World war ace, said today at an NBA hearing on an aviation code. It would require seven months for the Industry to step up production to 1000 planes a month, he said, urging the NBA not to frighten cap ital from further Investments in air craft manufacturing by changing "work hours and methods which ex perience has proved practical." Rickenbackcr, officially credited with bringing down 25 enemy planes during the last war, said the next one would begin with an aerial bat tle and that ultimate victory would depend on Its outcome. "No enemy will let us wait seven months to pro duce the planes required," he said. Sweden's Fruit Sent ' To Continent Cities Stockholm (LP) Sweden this year had a fruit crop of unprecedented size.

The late William O. Shepherd, veteran war correspondent of Col lier's Weekly, tells in a magazine article the effect which the new road will have In widening the horizon of American motorists. "Don't try it yet," the article says. "Wait until next year, but don't miss it then. It's still dan gerous now, for ordinary everyday drivers. But beginning next fall, .every American who tours in his motor car will want to take this astonishing trip. It opens up a new country, as foreign as any place on earth. Once south of the Rio Grande, the American motor ist will feel like Alice in Wonderland. "This road is Mexico's surprise gift to North America. It's even more than that. It's her gift to all South America as well, for the highway that tne Mexicans have been hewing through the moun tains and across the great central plateau is, with its extension south from Mexico City, the first' 1,000 mile link In the great Pan-Ameri- acn parkway which will one day reach across the soil of 12 nations, from Canada down to the lower tip of South America. "The trip to Mexico City wM be an easy one. You cross into Mex ico at Laredo. No passport is necessary, only a - tourist's card of , Civil War Vet Owns Old State License Humboldt, Iowa (LP) T. E.

SERVING UNIT FOR UNEMPLOYED GIRLS Portland, Dec. 21 (&) This scity's first CWA service project for un employed women a sewing unit, was opened here today with more than 132 women earning the first money they have enjoyed in years. Old army sweaters are rapidly be ing turned into nice new sweaters for children; materials soon will go into 100 or more comforters for the Red Cross; new underclothing will be made, and as quickly as dress goods and materials can be found. dresses for children and women will be fashioned. An instructor has been arranged for each table of ten women,, and orders have been given that there is to be no attempt at rivalry and no hurried work, but that all labor Is to be well done. CLEANERS AND DYERS TO PUT CODE TO WORK Washington, Dec. 21 (P) NRA of ficials today watched for reactions to the -new price schedule ordered in eitect tomorrow for dyers and cleaners all over the country, hope ful that objections of virtually all opposing groups had been met. Instead of drafting a differential in favor of cosh and carry stores, the NRA ordered a horizontal cut in all of the schedules promulgated a month ago amounting to rough ly 20 per cent, with the provision that cleaners giving high quality service should remain at the old price levels, displaying a special blue eagle insignia to identify them as producers of grade A work.' This was the first time NRA had stepped into the field of quality differentiation and reactions to this experiment were particularly sought. Instead of Issuing a complete new schedule of prices for each trade area in the country, NRA made public a table of reductions In minimums which showed a 20 cent cut in all prices above 95 cents, with a gradually decreasing reduc tion from that point. The net effect will be that where the price of cleaning a man's cult under the former schedule was 95 cents, the minimum for low quality units will be 75 cents. In place of 85 cents, the low price will be 70. The 65 and 75 cent prices will be replaced by minimums of 50 and 60. Early action was expected to cre ate a special board which will have the duties of constantly studying the effect of the new plan and of reporting on results to the code authority and to the administrator. Hugh S. Johnson intends 'to have this board made up of members of the industry. RARE HAND HELD j Denver, Col.
