Dropping such legislative proposals as the 30-hour week, the Wagner Labor Board bill to put or ganised labor in the saddle, and othei sucii measures which keep business upset would be a stimulant to recov- There is one answer, as a Washing ton sees it, to Huey Long and Father Coughlin—and that is a return of prosperity with the re-employment of many of the idle. Until that comes either this pair or others of their type who promise the people in glowing terms things that cannot be accom plished will continue to have their following. This is largely the reason why there is less stean) behind the Administra tion's drive for reforms at this ses sion of Congress and more emphasi: on recovery, why sound Democratic thinkers at the Capitol are warnin* against "leftist” legislation, why the "Brain Trust” has been more or less isolated. Their schemes were al» right so loog as the United 8tates was drifting in the land of fantasy. Now, despite Coughlin and Long and the others, there are definite indications that the people are tired of playing with trick legislative panaceas and want sound doctrines which have led to recovery in the past. Social re«- forms can wait. STATE HOUSE GOSSIP (By Ernest L. Gray) While Governor Martin took a much deserved four-day vacation af ter he had killed more than five per cent of the bills passed by the legisla ture with his mighty veto pen, specu lation was again rife ag_ UK «hat change he would make upon His re turn to the capitol the first of this week. But our guess is little will be done at the moment. Even should the governor begin at once to place men of his own choice in administrative seats. It was pre dicted the major changes he would make could be counted on the fingers of both hands Other than board of control changes, there are few others remaining which would be altered by the governor alone. • And speaking of vetoes, Immedi ately after his disapproving the so- called Orange Power bill, which eventually would put many of the private utilities out of business, .the state tax commission issued at state ment showing that utilities and rail roads in Oregon pay nearly seven million dollars taxes a year to main tain governments This is 17 per cent of all taxes paid, or one-sixth. As the federal congress passed the largest single appropriation measure in the history of the world—the 84,- 800,000,000 relief bill—Oregon’s own relief investigation got under way and will continue for the next month. E. A. McComack, of Eugene, is chair man and offices are being maintained in the Oregon Building in Portland where all complaints will be received and considered. ----- - While complaints are numerous, observers at the state capitol declare nothing irregular in the administra tion of the more than 810.000.000 re lief funds the past year would be found The adminstration in Oregon has been declared among the best in the United States. Complaints will always be heard. What the investi gation will accomplish, however, would probably be recommendations for a more thorough check on funds so that the government could check more readily. The Oregon legislature should be complimented upon what it did not do. For emphasis let’s rater to the Washington legislature where the en tire 66 day session appears as a egm edy of errors, delays and wholesale xpenditure of public funds. And the mess may not be straightened out for some time. The Oregon assembly itself killed Hitright 400 of the 941 bills intro duced. while 67 others died in com mittees. This is better than half of |ha total, showing many petty and radical proposals thrown into the dis- atd. And of the laws enact«!, only :63 were additional statutes, 219 amended to correct present laws,' 19 cpealcd old statutes, while 43 con stituted the more than 813,000,000 ap- iropriation items. Not so bad at all. D. O Hood. who accepted the job is budget director during the legis lature, left last week for New York xi personal business. He stated be fore he left his full time job was completed, but he would continue on □art time basis until he had complet ed the budgetary control set-up for he governor, the property control system requested by the legislatnre and the standardization of state sal aries.

Carl Cover was named by Hood as chief clerk, Hit the attorney general ruled the governor was the only one with pow er to make such an appointment. Whether or not the choice stands was not known. Some members of the news staff at the state capitol have made many guesses as to new appointments—but to date they have only been guesses. Unless there are definite trends, your writer will not venture pure rumor. To date air predictions in these col umns have been’borne out accurate ly and there is no desire to deviate now. The governor already has gone quite a distance in perfecting his ad ministration. Appointments made by him included Frank McColloch as utility commisisoner; two new mem bers to the liquor control board; five, or an entire new.game commission; four new members to the state relief committee, giving him control; and he is now considering a new highway ■ommissioner to replace Carl Wash- burne, of Eugene, who desires to re sign.

It shows tonight and Saturday at the Liberty, with George O’Brien in the starring role. ■ . ’ - Universal Appeal is what both book and picture possess. The stereotyped version of the West as peopled by desert rats lurking through the sage brush of the dry lands is abandoned; in place is a vibrant story of modern youth involved in a vital romance. The setting is an Arizona ranch, to which comes a mysterious Easterner, short of money, obviously the gentle man, but silent on his past. He is be friended by a hardened Westerner, changes from playboy to a rugged “man’s man,” and finds himself in the dilemma of his lifetime when he re alizes that his best friend and him self art -X”»1- for the hand of the same girl. Before turning to writing, Harold Bell Wright knew the typical Amer ican man and woman as few others knew him.

These stars, who made such a screen furore of "Paddy” and “Dad dy Loqg Legs,” appear in a poignant and tender romance of today, adapted from the acclaimed best-seller from the pen. of Robert Nathan.
