Speakership
Travel Inquiries
Burns Railroad
, By A. L. LINDBECK
SALEM. Even before the votes
cast In the primary election have
been canvassed and with yet an
other hurdle to be jumped in the
fall elections boomlets have been
started already for candidates for
Speaker of the House and Presi
dent of the Senate at the forth
coming legislative session.
As soon as the nomination of
Frank J. Lonergan of Multnomah
county as one of the 13 republican
candidates for the House from that
district was assured his friends
started a campaign for his eleva
tion to the Speakership. Lonergan
is one of the most aggressive mem
bers the House has had for many
years and is a veteran member of
that organization with several terms
to his credit. He has already been
honored by election to the Speak
ership, however, which fact is held
by many to constitute an effective
barrier to his election at the forth
coming session, assuming that he
is successful in the fall election.
Earl Hill of Lane county, who bare
ly nosed out a win In the primaries,
is held by many to be the logical
choice for Speaker at the forthcom
ing session and has many friends
in the House line-up in both camps
who can be expected to stand by
him to the last ditch. A third con
tender for the honor looms in the
person of Ernest R. Fatland of
Condon who has distinguished him
self for his constructive leadership
in the past two sessions.
All of this, of course, assumes
the return of the Republican party
to domination of the Houe. Demo
cratic candidates, however, are ad
mitting no such eventuality and
are quietly proceeding with plans
of their own for organizing the
next House. In this camp, too,
there are plenty of aspirants for
the Speakership. O. Henry Oleen
of Columbia county has let it be
known that he Is in a receptive
mood. Oleen is one of the few
Democrats whose experience in the
House antedates the deluge of 1934
which swept the minority party in
to control. Vernon D. Bull of La
Grande is understood to be ambi
tious to become a full-fledged gavel
wielder and a number of the young
er democrats are reported to be
willing that the mantle of Speaker
ship fall on their shoulders, includ
ing Moore Hamilton of Medford
and Harry Boivin of Klamath Falls.
All of which, of course, is entire
ly premature inasmuch as the No
vember election may change the
entire picture, but, too, it might
rob some of the aspirants of the
chance of running for the Speaker
ship, hence the rush to get into
the limelight before the curtain
falls.
Prison authorities of today are
not so much concerned with ways
and means of keeping men inside
the walls as they are with keeping
them outside, according to James
P. Davis of the new federal board
on prison industries. Davis was in
Salem this week to confer with
Governor Martin and prison offi
cials on prison problems. The fed
eral government is now sending
only one out of every ten first of
fenders to prison, Davis said. The
other nine are released under pa
role or on probation. Many states
are also inclining toward this pol
icy. Some states are providing
large farms on which prisoners are
employed under an honor system.
Oregon's prison industries problem
is not nearly so serious as that in
many states, Davis said. A thor
ough study of the situation here
will be made later this year before
any recommendations are made
for new industries.
Many of the larger Oregon em
ployers are paying their contribu

Circulation of books by Oregon
libraries not Including the state
library during 1935 totalled 5,342,
557 volumes, according to a com
pilation just completed by Miss
Harriet C. Long, state librarian.
That means an average of five
books for every resident of the
state. On the other hand, with only
1,181,735 volumes in the libraries
of the state it means that each
book was borrowed an average of
five times during the year.
Nine of the 47 agricultural in

TWenty-three traffic fatalities in
Oregon during April boosted the
year's score to a total of 77, or two
more than for the same period in
1935. Nine of the victims were pe
destrians. By a strange coincidence
the number of injuries during Ap
ril, totalling 434, was identically
the same as that for April, 1935.
Of the 958 men and women in the
Oregon penitentiary 131 are life
termers, records at the prison show.
One of these, Calvin Judy of Doug
las county, has been in the prison
for searly 42 years, being received
in 1893. Most of the "lifers" are
doing time for murder. Eleven of
them were sentenced as habitual
criminals, five of these being sent
up from Clackamas county.
More than 22,000 requests have
been received by the new travel
bureau of the state highway de
partment for information on scenic
trips within the state. Eight thous
and of the requests came from mo
torists who visited the state last
year. The rest come from "foreign
ers" in other states who are plan

of more than $100,000 of architect

Land Bank Loans Help
Pay Delinquent Taxes
Oregon farmers paid off $1,613,100
of back taxes out of loan funds
borrowed from the Land bank of
Spokane and Land bank commis
sioner between May, 1933, and Jan
uary of this year, according to fig
ures issued this week by E. M. Ehr
hardt, bank president.
"This-cleanup of tax delinquen
cies not only contributed to county
and state government financial re
covery, but also helped to reduce
tax sales to half the 1932 level,"
President Ehrhardt comments, "sav
ing hundreds of farmers from los
ing their property."
More than 5000 farmers In the
state refinanced their debts through
the Land bank and Land bank com
missioner since the bank became a
unit of the Farm Credit adminis
tration of Spokane. Out of the $22,
351,000 they borrowed, $1,613,100, or
7.2 per cent, was used to retire de
linquent taxes averaging $320 per
refinanced farmer. In some cases
these tax payments helped save
counties from threatened insolvency
and helped bring them back on a
cash basis. Other creditors likewise
benefitted from liquidation of over
due accounts out of loan proceeds.
"At the same time Oregon farm
ers so refinanced now face the fu
ture with increased hope of working
their way out of debt by having
their obligations rewritten on a
sound business basis under more
favorable terms of repayment," Mr.
Ehrhardt emphasizes. "Their mort
gage loansare now based on the
normal valuation, or debt-paying
power, of their farms, with pay
ments spread over a long term of
years at reasonable Interest rates."
