THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1935 a r THE CAPITAL JOURNAL'. SALEM. OREGON 13 PROVISIONS OF CORN-HOG PACT PARTLY KNOWN A preliminary outline of what the new corn-hog adjustment contracts are likely to contain has been re ceived from Washington by the O. S. 0. extension service. Latest news tells of the result of a conference of producers and state agricultural specialists held in Washington this month where provisions were dis cussed. Recommendations from that con ference Include approval of a two year voluntary contract instead of another for a single year, and one which will permit increase in h03 production this next year up to the full amount of the producer's base. That would mean a permitted 30 per cent increase, though such an amount Is not expected by those familiar with the situation, who say that the drouth-enforced Uquida- . tion of breeding? stock makes it im possible for any major hog produc ing state to attain this maximum next year. Recommended corn adjustment Is bout the same as at present, the proposal being to allow benefits on an optional adjustment of from 10 to 30 per cent, with each signer compelled to plant at least 25 per g cent of his base. The plan includes j keeping the ajustment payments at 35c a bushel for the estimated yield on the acres retired. The plan for making hog pay. ments will be entirely changed If the new recommendations are adopted. A flat adjustment pay ment of $2.50 for each hog produc ed up to half of the signer's bax la the proposal. While no benefit. payments would be made on any thing above 50 per cent, the grower could produce and sell any amount up to his 100 per cent. the appraisal method of establish- ving corn-nog Dases, so war, eqmtaoie bases may be assigned to producers regardles of past participation in a contract. Community committee men would be given more pow?r under this plan to make assign ments within the limits of the coiuv ty quota. The proposed plan Is designed to hold corn production in bounds and increase hog production as rapidly as possible- without letting it go tc former ruinous extremes deemed detrimental to both producers and consumers. NOVICE OPERATOR ; STARTLED BY YOICE ..! Portland, Ore, Nov. 21 (P) The telephone Jangled and the novice operator answered! "Olty hall, city hall." . She could "hear" a presence, but for a few seconds there was no response. Then an eerie voice which nearly unnerved her wafted over the wire.. It was the song of an unidentified old man, veteran operators laugh ingly explained. For 10 years an old man has call ed the city hall several times a week. He refuses to answer questions, but If allowed will talk steadily for 16 or 20 minutes. Sometimes he re cites statistics or rainfall, or ad vises when to plant shrubs and crops. Sometimes he will call but not talk. But the sonorous, deep-throated bark of a dog reveals the caller. Frequently the old man intersperses singing with his monologues. If the operators are busy they tell him to call back later. But he never "hears" them, for if disconnected he calls tight back on another phone and has his say.

Much Expected of New Law Cutting Total of State's Unpaid Taxes Cash registers in sheriff's offices are expected to be busy three months from now ringing down Oregon's tax delinquen cy from $46,172,566.80 to a point several million dollars low er. For on Saturday, Feb. 8, 1038, one of the most Important laws pass ed by the recent special session of the legislature and signed by the governor becomes effective. It Is a bill waiving Interest and penalties on delinquent taxes on real and personal property appearing on the tax rolls during 1934 and prior years. The state tax commission inter prets this to mean taxes for 1033 collectible in 1034 and not as many legislators believed taxes for 1034 payable In 1935. Neither, of course, does the law appty to taxes for 1935 payable in 1036 and future year. And counties will still be able to collect delinquent taxes on transi 101 ERA MEN DO GOOD WORK A total of 101 men enrolled by the Emergency Relief Administration is'. Oregon and Washington now are doing valuable work on Pacific Northwest forest experiment station projects, according 'to Thornton T. Munger, director. In addition to 32 employed at Portland headquarters in map copy ing, computing and other clerical duties, relief workers are concentra ted at 4 key points of experiment station activity outside Portland. A: the 7,500-acre Pringle Falls experi mental forest 35 miles south of Bend, Oregon, 3 carpenters are bus; on much needed buildings while 0 other workers are constructing fire breaks, fencing, experimental' plots in ponderosa pine stands and "fire proofing" a strip on each side of the roads to safeguard the results of this Important three-year-old firest re search center. Sixteen ERA men are building trails and making 'experi mental stand improvement cutting in the 10,000-acre Wind River ex- permlental forest in Douglas fir near Carson, Washington. Twenty-one ERA workers are on roads and trail projects In the 9,000-acre spruce hemlock Cascade Head experimental forest on the Oregon seacoast near Neskowin, while on the recently es tablished Blue Mountain experimen tal forest, sixty miles west of Baker. Oregon, 20 ERA men are building roads and fences and preparing a headquarters site. . . .,,,,,( At Wind River, which Is the orig inal headquarters of federal forest research In the Northwest, a partic ularly Interesting experiment upon which ERA axmen are being used is an attempt to convert very defective, decadent stands of Inferior species to productive stand of desirable spe cies by judicious chopping and girdling of worthless trees. In emer gencies the ERA men have been called upon to fight forest fires; they have aided In many other cur rent activities including the collect ion of tree seed for reforestation at home and abroad. CHRISTMAS SEALS SENT ROOSEVELT Washington, Nov. 21 MP) Presi dent Roosevelt received the first is sue of the 1035 Christmas seals yes terday in the annual finance cam paign of anti-tuberculosis associa tions. The seals were presented by MIsj Jane March of Washington, dressed in the costume made a part of this year's design of the seals. ATTEND MOORE RITES Aurora Masons from Aurora at tending funeral services at Newberg Wednesday for J. C. Moore, police man of the latter city were George A. Ehlen, Melvin Evans, George Wurster and P. O. Ottoway. ent merchandise or unsecured per sonal property or make an Immedi ate levy for timber which is being cut. Irrigation and drainage dis tricts may shut off water for un paid taxes and use other remedies now provided by law. But the act, put through by Sen. Henry L. Hess of La Grande and Rep. C. T. Hockett of Enterprise, will benefit John Q. Citizen something like this: Suppose Mr. Citizen, taxpayer, has in his desk drawer unpaid bills for 1931, 1932 and 1933 taxes, or earlier years. He can go to his county sheriff on that Saturday morning in February 90 days after the ad journment of the legislature or anytime up to and Including April 16, and say, "Here's one fourth of my taxes for the earliest year that I'm delinquent. It's sure a relief not to have to pay any interest.'' The sheriff will then remind the man across the counter that he can pay any or all of his other over due taxes without penalty. But the state is not giving John Q. Citizen something for nothing. After April 15, if he does not pay in full his current 1935 taxes due in 1936 he will not be privileged to pay any delinquent taxes without pen alty and Interest. And if he does pay his current taxes due next year then he will be required to pay at least the old est quarter of his delinquent taxes. If he does not pay the oldest de linquent quarter Installment, then penalty and Interest a;e not waived and the next year he must pay it in addition to the next overdue install ment the latter without penalty and interest. The taxpayer must keep his cur rent taxes paid up each year to be able to pay any delinquent taxes without penalty and Interest. In addition to this requirement, the law further tightens up collec tion procedure by providing that whenever two installments of taxes on real property, or one installment on personal property, are delinquent, the counties shall issue and foreclose certificates of delinquency forth with. The state tax commission does not believe the law will encourage fur ther tax delinquency for these rea sons: 1. Full payment of current tax es are required. 2. Payment of a definite amount of delinquent taxes each , year is re quired... 3. Foreclosure proceedings , are tightened up in case of non-payment. While the new act repeals the 10- year semi-annual Installment law of previous legislatures affecting 1930 and prior years, it does not change the provisions of these laws which cancelled penalty and Interest to dated of their enactment but re quired payment of two-thirds of one per cent interest from July, 1933.

MOONEY AVERS FACTS COVERED DURING TRIAL San Francisco, Nov. 21 U) Tom Mooney, on the witness stand in his own behalf, attempted to show yes terday evidence, which might have aided In acquitting him in the Pre paredness Day bombing trial, had been suppressed. Mooney testified regarding the part played In his prosecution and that of Warren Billings by enlarge ments of photographs taken of the patriotic parade with a small poc ket camera by Wade Hamilton, ama teur photographer. The former labor leader, convicted of murder In the bombings, said Hamilton had turned the negatives over to the state and at Billing's trial and enlargement was intro duced which was blurred badly. The enlargement did not show Mooney on the roof of the Eilers Building, where he claimed to be, two blocks from the explosion scene. Nor did they show a clock he said was within range of the camera. After the trial, Maxwell McNutt, Mooney counsel then, demanded the negatives and had new enlarge ments made. These, Mooney said, showed the clock with its hands pointing at 2:06 p. m., the explosion time, and the back of the head of a man the labor leader identified as himself. Hamilton stood behind him to take the pictures, he said. The testimony was Interrupted to permit Mrs. Belle Hammerberg, Mooney's sister-in-law, to corrob orate the story of the two enlarge ments. Mooney then returned to the stand to face cross-examination from William Cleary, deputy state attorney general directing the fight against the Mooney attempts to ob tain a writ of habeas corpus by proving a frameup and pre jury in his trial.
