BETWEEN SESSIONS
13 Interim Boards Probe for
' Better State Government
By JAMES D. OLSON
Thirteen legislative interim committees, authorized by the 1949
legislature, have been organized to study various state activities.
A total of $59,000 was appropriated to cover the expenses of the
committees, although the members receive no compensation.
One of the most important of the interim committees, known as
the 'little Hoover commlttee'
will investigate administration
of the state government with a
view of elimination of duplica
tion and obtaining a higher de
gree of efficiency in the conduct
of state affairs.
This committee will also study
the feasibility of revising and
rewriting the constitution of the
state, and if advisable, propose
a time when a constitutional
convention should be held for
that purpose.
""The committee is authorized
to expend not more than $10,000
for expenses. Members include
Senators Angus Gibson, Junc
tion City and Philip . Hitcn
cock, Klamath Falls and Repre
sentatives Paul E. Geddes, Rose
burg, Charles K. McCulloch,
Baker and Rudie Wilhelm, Jr.,
of Portland. Speaker Frank J.
Van Dyke and President of the
senate William E. Walsh are ex
officio members.
Inasmuch as taxation and
probable need of some new
sources of state revenue will be
a major problem in the 1951
legislature, the work of the in
terim committee on taxation is
of utmost importance.
This committee has been di
rected to make a fact-finding
study of (a) the means of re
stricting the levy of ad valorem
taxes on property for state pur
poses, and the revision of exist
ing statutes to that end, (b)
coordination of the sources and
distribution of revenues between
the state and local subdivisions,
(c) methods of assessment and
collection of taxes used by the
state and the local taxing bodies,
(d) present and future state
revenue requirements in relation
to income, business and other
taxes and licenses, and (e) prob
lems concerning the state levy
of taxes and six per cent consti
tutional limitation.
Two state groups will be
studying and reporting on tax
matters as the board of control,
upon suggestion of State Treas
urer Walter Pearson, directed
the state' tax commission to in
augurate a tax study.
State Senator Howard Bolton,
chairman of the legislative tax
study committee, stated at the-
organizational meeting that his
committee would be willing to
co-operate with the tax com
missioners but would make its
own study and report to the
1951 legislature
In addition to Senator Belton
the committee is composed of
Senator Eugene E. Marsh, Mc-
Minnville; Representatives Giles
French, Moro and John I. Sell,
The Dalles and three members,
Earl Day, Mcdford, Mrs. Louise
Humphrey, Portland and Kelley
Loe, also of Portland, appointed
by Gov. McKay.
Streamlining the conduct of
the legislature with a view of
cutting down the length of ses
sion and improving legislative
procedures is the task given to
a legislative procedure commit
tee. This committee has been di
rected to devote particular at
tention to such questions as
printing of bills, journals and
session laws, to rules governing
debate on the floors of the sen
ate and house, to the number
and composition of committees,
to the salaries of members and
the staff and all related prob
lems and subjects.
In addition to the president of
the senate and speaker of the
house, the members of this com
mittee include Senators Eugene
E. Marsh, McMinnville and
Richard L. Neuberger, Portland
ind Representatives David C.
Baum, La Grande, Warren Gill,
Lebanon and William B. Morse,
Prineville.

Seaman Gels
His Dog Back
Seattle, Aug. 11. W) Seaman
Sam Massey has his Alaskan dog
back again today.
Massey is the 28-year-old
Brooklynite who scaled a roof
and a fence to get his half-
husky, half-collie pooch out of
the city pound early yesterday-
only to land in the brig himself.
Massey said he had raised the
dog from a pup at Adak, in the
Aleutians, and wanted it with
him on his 60-day leave.
Ray H. Hinea, director of the
pound, said Massey retreived his
pet today by apologizing for his
invasion of the pens, paying its
board bill and buying a collar
and license.
Massey told Hinea there was
only one remaining hurdle to his
departure for good ol' Brooklyn:
he had an appointment with his
commanding officer to talk over
the whole escapade.
Voice of America
Is Jammed Again
New York, Aug. 11 IU.R The
Voice of America reported today
that its broadcasts to China have
been running into Russian
nuisance" jamming.
VOA officials said the jam
ming began months before the
communists crossed the Yangtze
last April. They were sure it
came from Russia, possibly
Vladivostok, since China does
not have the equipment to jam
relay points at Honolulu and
Manila.
The Soviets have been jam
ming the Russian language
broadcasts of the Voice of Amer
ica and the British Broadcasting
corporation since April.
