Building Costs
Passing Peak
Although admitting that con
tractors did not agree, Keith
Powell, president of the Salem
Federal Building and Loan as
sociation, expressed the opinion
during a Salem Board of Real
tors luncheon Friday that the
peak of price in new construc
tion is approaching, if it has not
already arrived He declared
there has been a slackening off
in the amount of money older
type property will bring and
said that the action of the lum
ber division of the Oregon Pulp
and Paper company in reducing
the price of timber products was
a forerunner of what might be
expected along this line.
Powell predicted that there
would be a more rapid expedit
ing of materials, with conse
quent speeding up of the time
in construction and the lower
ing of ultimate costs by 15 or
20 percent. "We are approach
ing the time when we must be
come salesmen once more," he
said.
Present conditions reminded
the speaker of those that existed
in the early 1920's when shift
ing populations brought an in
flux of new people and new
money to the valley. With this
as basis for his thinking, Pow
ell said, he would not be surpris
ed to see a "recession" late this
year or early next.
In speaking of G.I. loans, the
speaker said they were being
processed much more rapidly
than he had anticipated and his
firm was closing them within
10 days or two weeks. The Sa
lem Federal, he added, had made
112 such loans, involving $653,
000. Total loans were placed
at 616, involving an estimated
$3,600,000. Appraisal of prop
erty is still a troublesome prob
lem. Mexicans to Work
In Sugar Beets
Ontario, Ore., April Ji U.R).
Harry Sandquist, Malheur
county agent, said today that
word had been received from
the Emergency Farm Labor as
sociation that four trainloads of
Mexican nationals would leave
El Paso, Tex., April 22-28 for
Snake River valley farm work
this summer.
Sandquist said 1000 Mexican
workers would be available for
the summer season, although
Malheur county had applied for
1450. Of the number 550 will
go to Nyssa, 200 to Ontario and
250 to Vale. Sandquist added
that since the labor problem
would be as serious as ever with
the increased sugar beet acre
age, the only solution would be
individual farmers to furnish
additional housing.
Furniture arrangement will be
demonstrated by Miss Eleanor
Trindle at a meeting of the Four

our ways of life and carry this
knowledge back when they re
turn to their native lands."
Mr. Truman, Morgenthau and
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt spoke on

tion in the art of living to
gether. . . ."
Mr. Truman said the greatest
memorial to Mr. Roosevelt was
the natural, human response of
people everywhere to something
in the character and personality
of Franklin Roosevelt. It is a
response to his understanding
and his sympathy for suffering
and understanding and a sym
pathy that were deep and sin
cere because they were born of
a tragic personal experience. . , .
r ranklin Roosevelt rests."
the president continued, "in the
spot he held dearest his home.
He died fighting for what he
loved most his country - - its
homes its institutions its peo
ple, sharing their stubborn be
lief in freedom under a just God
in whose almighty beneficience
rests the hope of the world this
day."
County Court
(Continued from Page 1)
Said County Judge Grant
Murphy, "Anything that ob
structs the view of the court
house or civic center and a con
cession such as proposed for the
rest rooms to create litter and
debris on the courthouse grounds
I will be opposed to. But, if the
city officials submit definite
plans to us I will view them
with an open mind and defin
itely express by views after
such examination.
County Commissioner Roy
Rice, who had proposed to sub
mit a motion to the court that it
disapprove the proposal, also
expressed himself when it was
decided to let such action be
postponed until plans have been
submitted by the city. However,
he stated individually, "We
asked the public to vote on the
construction of a million dollar
courthouse, they gave it to us,
and I want to go on record right
now as not approving the plan
which was scmi-officially laid
before us by the representatives
of the city."
Blot on Civic Center
County Commissioner E. L.
Rogers took the same view as
to the million dollar courthouse
and declared "I want no blot on
our courthouse lawn or the mil
lion dollar building we propose
to erect there. I am definitely
against the plan as outlined to
us-so far."
All members of the court in
timated that if it determined
they have a legal control over
the parking strip in question
some definite action will proba
bly be taken. If not, their disap
proval will stand as court mem
bers and citizens.

Labor Bills

ditional policy of "no contract,
no work," Hartley said, would
be a collusive strike.
In a case of such a strike.
Hartley said, a union might suf
fer a year's suspension of its
bargaining rights and under the
anti-trust laws damage suits
could be brought against the
union.
All 15 committee republicans
and three southern democrats
were recorded as voting for the
new bill. Four democrats were
against and three democrats did
not ballot.
The senate labor committee,
headed by Senator Taft (R
Ohio), went through about half
of another huge bill yesterday,
toning down many provisions
over Tafl's opposition. The com
mittee, sharply divided on the
issues, hopes to complete its
work Monday.
As the senate bill stands now,
union shops would be allowed
only if a majority of the em
ployes voted for such a con
tract. Under the house bill,
such a contract is permitted if
both the employer and union
wont it.
The senate committee post
poned decision on whether to
limit Industry-wide bargaining
in any way.
Senator Taft. who had en
dorsed the preliminary bill be
fore the senate committee, told
reporters he opposed virtually
all the changes made yesterday.

committee split 8 to 5 or 7 to 6.

and republicans swung the de
cision on nearly every contro
versial issue.
In some cases, Thomas said, the
five democrats on the commit
tee Thomas and Senators Hill,
(Ala.), Pepper (Fla), Murray
(Mont.), and Ellcnder (La.)
voted as a unit and were joined
