By JAMES D. OLSON
, Capital Journal Political Editor
How long will the present legis-
lative session last?
This is the $64 question heard
on all sides of the state capital
these flays. Predictions range
from April 1 to May 17 or later.
The longest legislative session
' in the history o( Orcgnn was In
1951 when adjournment did not
' come until the 116th day.
Chairman Clarence Barton of
the House Tax Committee has
announced that his committee will
not hegin formulation of its tax
program until about April 1. It
will likely take from 10 days to
two weeks for this committee to
complete its program.
Will Go lo Senate
If the program is accepted by
the house, it will go lo the sen
ate where the taxation commit
tee will take a good look at the
program. Should it not satisfy the
senate committee, which in the
past has usually been the case, the

perhaps totally rewritten.
All of this will take time. And
taxation, while perhaps the most
important problem facing the leg
islature, is not the only one.
There is certain to he a big
hassle over unemployment insur
ance rates and benefits. In the
1955 session a fight over work
men's compensation bills held up
adjournment for hours while num
erous conlercnce committees at
tempted to reach agreement on
points of difference between the
house and senate.
1,000 Bills to Consider
There are approximately 1,000
bills in senate and house commit
tee as the legislature goes into its
ninth week next Monday.
Of course, many of these bills
wiil never sec the light of day, ex
piring in committee, but many of
them must be considered by mem
bers of both houses.
The house tax committee has
nvrc than 90 bills, which must be
considered, and the house judiciary
committee has over 100 bills not
yet reported out.
Yet these committees are work

Saturday Bank Closure Bill
By WILLIAM WARREN
Untied Press Staff Correspondent
A measure designed to bring
about Saturday closing of Oregon
banks drew considerable and
spirited interest at a hearing here
yesterday afternoon by the Senate
Committee on Financial Affairs.
Spokesmen for the U.S. National
Bank of Portland and independent
banks favored Saturday closing
with a gusto that brought out
breaks of applause from the listen
ers, many of them bank employes.
Spokesmen for the First Nation
al Bank of Portland, the Farm
Bureau Federation, the State
Grange and small businessmen op
posed the Saturday closing.
John McNerney of the U. S. Na
tional Bank, chairman of the com
mittee of bank employes favoring
Saturday closing, said Oregon law
alreadv tells a bank to whom it
may loan money, and at what in
terest rate, and it would be no
more discriminatory for Oregon
law to designate Saturday a holi
day as far as banks are con
cerned. E. C. Sammons, president of
U. S. National, said if Saturday
closing is effected, branches of his :
bank would remain open Friday j
until 8 p.m. to accommodate
weekend customers.
Also urging the Saturday closing
was Roger J. Bounds, president of ;
the Inland Empire Bank of Uma
tilla, representing Oregon inde
pendent bankers.' j
