Mott con gressional representative from the first Oregon district, told the Al bany chamber of commerce yes terday that in his opinion the re vised O. tc C. land grant bill is the most vital legislation to some si the western Oregon counties that was passed by the seventy-fourth con gress. Mott stated that he was instru mental In saving the revenue for the 15 Oregon counties from the O. A C. land grant law. At one time it seemed that the beneficiary counties might be de prived entirely -of revenues from these government owned lands. The counties will receive practically all revenues from sales of timber from the grant lands after administra tive costs are deducted. "This," Congressman Mott de clared, "will, because of the sus tained yield provisions of the new bill. Insure between 1400.000 and $600,000 annually to the 16 coun ties for all tune." At the last session of congress, more than four-fifths of the tune was devoted to argument over three major administration measures, the supreme court bill, the administra tive reorganization bill and the wages and hours bill. However, the lawmakers found time meanwhile to effect a great deal of construc tive legislation. The seventy-fourth congress will be remembered most ly for what It did not do, he said. Among the legislation attained was the revision and correction of many administrative, measures in cluding the railroad retirement act, Duffy coal bill and the municipal bankruptcy act, Legislation claimed by Mott as being constructive included the CCC extension act. the limited PWA ex tension act. WPA extension act and the general relief bill of (300.000 of which 1400,000 was earmarked for roads. Mott predicted that in the special session next month that the su preme court bill. If it reappears, will again meet defeat; that the administration reorganization bill will still face opposition from both majority and minority groups, and that wages and hours bill, U pass ed, will be altered. He concluded his address with the forecast that the chief sub, Ject of debate at the special ses sion will be the pending agricultural crop control bill, due to the warn ing of the agricultural committee tnat It Is going to write Its own bill.
