36 New Bills
Dropped In
House Hopper
By Paul W. Harvey, Jr.
Measure to enact a surtax of
two per cent on taxable Incomes
and to lower the legal interest rate
from six to five per cent were among
36 measures introduced in the house
today.
Rep. Lyle D. Thomas (R.. West
Salem), and Glenn N. Riddle (R.,
Riddle), sponsors ot the tax mea
sure, said lt would double the tax
rate in the lower brackets.
This measure Is not intended to
raise any more revenue," Thomas
said, "but H would be used to reduce
the property tax. Its object Is to
take the burden off the property tax
payer."
They also Intro iuced a measure
reducing Income tax exemptions on
married persons from 31500 to 81200
and on single persons from $800 to
$600.
Rep. Coe A. McKenna and Frank,
H. Hilton, both Portland republi
cans, sponsored the Interest bill.
D. E. Nlckerson, executive secre
tary of the state federation of la-1
bor, said In a prepared statement
today that labor would oppose the
gross Income tax, which the leglsla
tvle interim commission on state
and local revenues is expected to
recommend, because it "places the
heavy burden on those least able to
pay.
He also opposed efforts to repeal
the tax on invested wealth, and the
proposed lowering of Income tax
exemptions.
Both houses considered only minor
bills today, but were expected to be
gin consideration of major legisla
tion late this week.
Other bills Introduced in the house
today would permit the tax com
mission to assess utility districts,
give the state police the responsi
bility of enforcing gambling laws,
place fees collected for motor ve
hicle inspection In police pension
funds, establish an egg-grading
code, create a state publicity board
to advertise Oregon s tourist at
tractions, and appropriate $8000 for
physical education in public schools.
The house passed and sent to the
senate a bill providing a form for
tenure of state police officers.
The bill provides state policemen
may be discharged for inefficiency,
misfeasance or malfeasance but
only after proper hearing by a trial
board consisting of the superinten
dent of state police and two senior
officers appointed by him. Under
present law, the policemen hold
two-year appointments and may be
discharged at the superintendent's
discretion.
Rep. John R. Hall (R-Portland),
sponsor of the bill, praised the state
police as a "courteous and coura
geous group of men who risk their
lives for a salary of $125 to $150 a
month." He said the tenure proposal
takes the police organization "out
of politics."
Measures prohibiting use of fish
eggs or spawn as bait in the Mc
Kenzle or Willamette rivers and
making boat fishing illegal In the
McKenzie above Blue river and the
Willamette above Lowell bridge
were Introduced In the house today
by the Lane county delegation.
Single e?g fishing is not affected.
Rep. Vernon D. Bull (D., La
Grande), and Sen. Thomas R. Ma-
honey (D.. Portland), will introduce
a bill taxing oleomargarine 45 cents
a pound. They said creameries
were behind the measure.
Rep. Frank H. Holton (R Port
land), will sponsor to measure to in
crease the state's share of horse and
dog racing revenues from 2 to
4 per cent. Gov. Charles A. Sprague
having recommended it be increas
ed to 3 per cent.
The joint ways and means com
mittee recommended last night that
the state's share be increased to
3H per cent, the extra $78,000 to be
placed in the general fund.
Sixteen bills were introduced In
the senate today. Including a mea
sure providing for a compilation of
quasi-Judicial rulings by state boards
and commissions.
An administrative committee,
composed of the secretary of state.

Plan to Squeeze
More Revenue
From Doggies
(Continued from page 1)
Oregon dog owners are not In
clined to whisper their charges that
racing in this state is conducted
along closed corporation lines; that
rules are arbitrarily made and
changed and that practices here
are not in line with those prevailing
elsewhere In the United States. They
assert that during 1938 a total of
$69,553 was paid out In race purses.
of which approximately $50,000 went
to out-of-state kennels.
They object to the fact that bet
ting machines, required in horse
racing, are not used for dog racing
here to protect the public against
possible fraud; they frown on the
practice of permitting the racing
secretary to designate the starting
position of the dogs Instead of fix
ing them by lot, and they find fault
with the practice of permitting own
ers to run more than one dog In a
race; claim Oregon dogs are not giv
en starts proportional to their qual
ifying trials.
Some elements are advocating
legislative cures for all of these
complaints, but the majority are fa
vorable to a reorganization of the
racing commission to give breeders
of dogs and standard-bred horses
representation on the board which
has the authority to cure most of
the grievances by regulation.
Most talked of right now is a plan
to give the governor a free hand In
the selection of appointees to the
racing commission without requir
ing representation for any particu
lar interest.

College Will
Prepare For
KOAC Hearing
Corral Ms, Jan. 31 (P Oregon
State college will begin Immediate
preparation of evidence for the
rehearing of the KOAC-KOY ra
dio case, granted yesterday by the
federal communclations commission.
Evidence will cover engineering
data on interference 1' KOY were
granted right to use the KOAC
wave length and a review of the
service of KOAC and its contribu
tion to "public convenience and ne
cessity." The college station will
be represented by Ben 8. Fisher,
radio attorney in Washington, and
his Portland associate, Judge John
C. Kendall.
The KOY application, by which
an Arizona station seeks use of the
550 kilocycle frequency, has been
pending since January, 1938. An
examiner recommended that the re
quest be granted, but before final
action was taken college authorities
here, who had not previously been
directly represented, petitioned for
a rehearing. This was first denied
last December 12. but after Oregon's
congressional delegation and hun
dreds of citizens and organizations
lodged protests, the commission
agreed to receive a new petition.
College engineers contended 90
per cent of the KOAC night time au
dience would be seriously interfer
ed with should KOY use the same
wave length. KOAC was established
by Oregon State college in 1922.
and has been operated for the past
five years by the general extension
division of the state system for high
er education.
