84I.jDM, Ore., Feb. 21. The wajs
and meaim committee in a grim, tax
Bavins mood lias voted adverse re
ports on varioua appropriation bills.
Among those that went Into the
discard waa the Moser-Corhett bill
providing tor an appropriation of
flOO.OOO, to be matched by a federal
$125,000 appropriation, for the con
struction of a memorial building at
Champoeg. This was done after Mil
ton A. Miller of Portland, H. U.
Starkweather of Milwaukie and I. 11.
D'Arry had presented the cause to
the committee.
Another measure disallowed was
one providing for $35,000 annually for
three years for the agricultural pro-
motion campaign of the State Cham
ber of Commerce. This was bitterly
attacked hy Henator Strayer after
He mi tor Kiddle moved that It be ap
proved. "If you want io start another fool
ish, wild-cat venture," Raid Strnyer,
"Just get bny on this. It la economi
cally unsound and foolish."
Kopresontntive Collier defended the
measure and cited statistics by W. O.
Ido of Portland showing the number
of new settlers that had been brought
to the ftUte.
"You don't believe that, do you?"
Strnyer replied.
"Then you don't believe the state
eh nmber is on a sound business ba
sis?" Collier asked.
"I think the state chamber has on
hand a high-pressure program to give
somebody a job. Who it is I don't
know," was Strnyer's answer.
Measures disapproved were: Dunne
resolution for $2,100 for John H.
Teon memorial ; $8000 for poultry
disease investigations; $12,000 for ag
ricultural experiment station in Des
chutes county; $'J"00 to locate graves
of ex-soldiers; $f80 clnim of K. R.
Jamison against state lime board;
$7500 for topogrnphic map of state;
hill to increase county fair tnx levy
from one-twentieth to one-tenth of a
mill; to create a revolving fund for
the state printer; providing for a
committee to Investigate tlie matter
of taxes on federal forest lands.
