Farm Bureau Fayors Federal
Plan for Reapportionment
La Grande, Nov. 17 VP) An initiative measure to change the
state legislature to the federal system of house and senate
membership was planned today by the Oregon farm bureau
federation.
State Rep. Giles French, Moro, said the ballot measure for a
"'constitutional amendment was
being prepared. This followed
a vote by the farm bureau con
vention on the proposal.
The delegates favored reap
portioning the legislative mem
bership of the state house of
representatives by population
and giving each county two
members in the state senate.
Both houses are presently ap
portioned on a population basis
although not revised for re
cent changes with membership
limited to 60 in the house and
30 in the senate.
The proposal resulted from
earlier convention declarations
to oppose any reapportionment
that would deprive farm areas
of their influence under the ex
isting legislative system.
President Lowell Steen warn
ed of a state property tax of up
to 9 miles in 1951 unless the
state found new revenue sources.
He said state spending is exces
sive. He said Oregon had gone
overboard on schools and pen
sions.
Executive Secretary Marshall
Swearingen reported member
ship was up 700, but not to the
goal. He said the federation
should strive for a 50 per cent
gain in 1950. This would put
affiliation at 6,470.
The associated women of the
federation reelected Mrs. Les
ter Van Blockland, Island City,
their president. Mrs. Osle Estoup,
Milton, was elected vice presi
dent and Mrs. E. E. Kilpatrick,
Klamath Falls, secretary-treasurer.

New York, Nov. 17 () Hea

ket. In a broad advance, leading

Festival Dated
A "Thanksgiving festival," a
program that will feature the
best talent of Salem senior high
school, will be staged Friday
night in the auditorium and the
gymnasiutn.
The admission fee will be an
extremely modest one and all
money realized will be used to
fatten the high school band's de
pleted treasury.
The first portion of the enter
tainment will be in the nature
of a "variety show," including
vocal and instrumental music,
magic by Jack Spong and a one
act play. The conclusion will be
Thanksgiving pageant In
which the band, orchestra and
members of the Snikpoh club
will participate. Costuming will
be a high light of this produc
tion. The high school choir, direct
ed by Howard Miller, will make
its first official appearance.
Adjourning to the gymnasium,
the program will be carried on
with a jitney dance and carnival
features. Mothers of the band
members have contributed
scores of cakes, which, with
number of turkeys, will be given
away during the gymnasium'
portion of the program. I

Two Injured As
Auto Overturns
Two Portland reiidents were
hospitalized here Wednesday
afternoon after their automobile
skidded to a stop in an effort to
avoid hitting another car and
overturned on the Pacific high
way near Woodburn.
Injured were Mrs. Orlena
Cook, wife of J. T. Cook, the
driver, and his daughter, Mrs
Irene Mcintosh. Both received
severe lacerations and bruises.
Neither Cook nor Mrs. Mcin
tosh's five-year-old son, Michael
were injured.
Cook apparently slammed on
his brakes when another car
was driven onto the highway
from the Molalla junction north
of Woodburn. The Cook ma
chine skidded nearly 200 feet
before rolling over and coming
to a stop upside down. The driv
er of the other vehicle did not
stop.
Sheridan School
Bids Rejected
Sheridan, Ore., Nov. 17 All
13 bids for the construction of
the new grade school were re
jected by the school board Wed
nesday because it felt all were
too high. Previously the board
had placed a limit of $100,000
on construction and probably
will revise present plans to keep
costs -within the estimate. An
other call for bids will be made
when the changes are made.
Bids ranged from a low of
$112,000 by the Foothills Con
struction company of Estacada
with a high of $148,000. The
board hopes to award the eon
tract as soon as possible to re
lieve present overcrowding at
the old building. b
