News About
State Affairs
By A. L. Lindbeck
Members of Governor Martin’s
state planning board are now con­
centrating their efforts largely on
the gathering of data to support
an application for a federal grant
toward financing the new capitol.
This, it is generally admitted,
is the new move in the capitol con­
struction program.
State Treasurer Holman’s pay-
as-you-go plan for financing the
new state house was presented to
the board of control this week and
received immediate approval al­
though consideration of a bond is­
sue has not been altogether aban­
doned yet.
At a conference here Friday at­
tended by the governor and several
members of the planning board
it was virtually agreed that the
Bush pasture site is now out of
the picture. This narrows the
choice of additional ground for
state house purposes down to the
Willamette university campus and
two blocks of residential property
on Court street just north of the
state property. Willamette uni­
versity trustees are understood to
favor sale of the school property
to the state but state officials are
frankly doubtful as to the ability
to pay a price which will enable the
school to rebuild on a larger and
more suitable location.
With architects busy sketching
tentative designs, engineers mak­
ing a study of the needs of the
state as to space in the new build­
ing, financial experts busily figur­
ing out details of both the pay-as-
you-go and bond plans and Secre­
tary Ickes dangling.-$1,500.000
der the nose of state officials as a
contribution from Uncle Sam to­
ward the new building, talk of a
special session now has it that the
lawmakers will be on the job again
in the “early fall.” While some
interpret this to mean early Sep­
tember others, less optimistic, fix
the date for the session as the last
of September or early October.

To Talk Monday Leader Says
At Walla Walla
Plans Are Made
Secretary of Agriculture Henry
A. Wallace will be in Walla Walla
next Monday, July 22, to speak
before farmers of the northwest
grain belt. He will speak in the
city park at one o’clock and ar­
rangements have been made to ac­
commodate 10.000 persons. Loud
speakers will be used to give every
one a chance to hear the address.
A large attendance is expected
those in charge to send a good
sized delegation to exhibit interest
in the enactment of the AAA
amendments and the continuance
of the export subsidy plan that was
in effect last year in the northwest.
Many Reported Going
Several car loads of listeners will
go from this county to hear the
secretary and arrangements are
being made to consolidate the
group into as small a number of
cars as possible to give adequate
transportation.
D E. Stephens and Harry Proud­
foot have been appointed by Mac
Hoke, president of the Eastern
Oregon Wheat League and gener­
al chairman of the arrangements
for Oregon, to organize the trip
for Sherman county and get as
many as possible to go.
