the case would be retried, pos
sibly within two weeks.
For the last 13 of the 18 houra

Tom Kay Hurls Charges
Of Deliberate Attempt
To Cripple State
Revenge For Defeat Of In
come Tax Declared To
Be Motive
STATE HOUSE, SALEM, Ore.,
Jan. 22. W) State Treasurer T. B. ,
Kay, at a meeting of the ways and
means cotnmittco of the legislature
last night, assailed the state budget
and state tax commissions who pre
pared the state's budget and tax
levy now in the hands of the legisla
ture.
Tho majority members of these
commissions, Governor Fiorco and
Former Stat' -Treasurer Jefferson
Myers, were the objects of Kay's at
tack. ',-...
Kay asserted that these two offi
cials, in his opinion, had deliberately
cut tho state tax levy to about 1.0
mills, while all conditions having to
do with slate finauccs inado neces
sary a levy of nhout 3 mills. ' Ho cx-
pressed tho opinion that this had
been done deliberately to cripplo tho
Hlalo an a sort of revenge for the
defeat of tho state ineome tax. . , , ,
Kay asserted that JFL'.IWl .012.S3
which the stuto budget mentions as
in ' excess of estimated revenues is
misleading and can bo greatly ro
duced. . .
There Is still a marked scarcity of
labor In Kugene ond Lane county, ro-,
ports F. I.. ArinitaRo of tbe United
States employment office. AltJioiuh
nearly nil the mills in the county are.
operating Ihey arc full handed, and,
men nro slicking to their jobs.
Men who have been nt employment
centers nre beginning lo travel hi
search of work, it is slated. Theo
men usually find the logging' camps,
and mills nre operating with full
crews when they go out to the camps
without being sent. Applications for
work from mill and logging camp
hands nre being received duily in tho
local employment office, but with few
jobs being offered. There continues
to be a surplus of both skilled and
unskilled licfp. , - ,
Hcports from nil districts indicnto
that but few calls for men msy be ex
