Salem. The State Capitol Re
construction commission is going
to use Oregon stone and wood in
the new statehouse if at all possi
ble. Basic bid for the building will be
for complete facing with Oregon
granite, according to J. A. McLean,
Eugene, chairman of the commis
sion. Alternate bids will call for
granite bases with marble or light
colored eastern stone for the super
structure. Bids will be sought Immediately
and opened Sept. 2 for preliminary
construction work fln the capitol,
McLean said. First work will com
prise clearing the site, fencing the
building zone, excavation of the
basement and erection of field
houses for the supervising archi
tects and PWA engineers. Con
tmcs ior actual construction of
the bu.lumg will be drawn in No
vemoei, anu wok should be started
in December.
Oregun woods will be used to fin
ish the interior of the capitol. Black
walnut will be specified for doors,
casings and woodwork, especially in
the cnamoers of the house of rep
resentatives and the senate. Myrtle,
maple, fir and other softwoods will
also be used.
Only catch to their use will be
that Oregon stones be quarried In
time and at a cost which can be
competitive with materials from
other parts of the country.
Every county In the state got
$478.48 for its fair when the state
racing commission turned over $17,
115.28 to Secretary of State Snell
for distribution. The Bum was 23
percent of the commission's re
ceipts from dog and horse racing.
The state fair and Pacific Interna
tional Livestock exposition In Port
land each received $21,875.75; the
Pendleton Round-Up and the East
ern Oregon Livestock show In Un
ion each was sent a check for $3,
445; and the Northwest Turkey
show in Oakland, Douglas county,
got $1033.50.
Governor Martin might turn Cu
pid for a man in West Los Angeles,
Calif. The executive received this
letter recently:
"No doubt you are called upon
for many things so I am going to
ask you to help me with my prob
lem. I have been a resident of your
state for some time In the past and
that is why I am asking for your
assistance. I do not seem to have
much luck in finding the right sort
of woman that would make a good
mate. Either they like their liquor
too well and carouse or they want
a lot of swell clothes and chase to
dances and leave their house In dis
order. I am looking for a girl that
Is free, white and over 21, not over
130 pounds, with a sweet disposi
tion, affectionate, a good cook and
will stick wim you at all times and
does not care to be dancing and
drinking all the time.
"I am 40 years old, not bad to
look at, do not drink, do not dance,
but I do love the great outdoors.
I have been a steady worker ever
since I was 14 years old, so I am
not looking for a meal ticket I
am just a working man, but due to
the depression have no large bank
account, but am willing to work at
all times. Thought possibly you
might know of such a girl for me."

The state unemployment compen
sation commission will probably
collect $1,500,000 in payrol taxes in
its first year, D. A. Bulmore, ad
minlstrator, said. The commission
was just organized this year. Near
ly 145,000 employes are under the
provisions of the jobless Insurance
law, and approximately 4800 em
ployers have registered. Bulmore
said he expected 200,000 workers to
be benefitted by the law before
long.
s
Governor Martin's 40 years In
the army stood him In good 'stead
when prisoners in the state peni
tentiary rebelled recently. An ad
vocate of preparedness, the gover
nor had virtual "war plans" ready
for use at the prison. The dis
patch with which state police mob
ilized and penitentiary guards went
to their posts was the result of
many conferences between the gov
ernor, Warden James Lewis and
Supt Charles A. Pray of the state
troopers.
The riot brought into the open
again the oft-debated question of
establishing a reformatory for first-
offenders to segregate youthful
penitentiary inmates from harden
ed criminals. Paul Foreman, state
planning board research expert and
sociologist, advised the board of
control that construction of such a
separate institution would be noth
ing more than "a raid on the public
treasury." Establishment of an
intermediate penitentiary which has
been considered a problem for the
next legislature, would be unwise,
Foreman believes, "considering pre
sent facilities and the organization
of Oregon's institutions."
Foreman said the separate insti
tution would mean unwarranted
costs for buildings and mainten
ance. Employment of more con
victs on the prison farm would
help solve the problem of over
crowding in the penitentiary, it was
suggested. Prisoners cannot al
ways be segregated merely accord
ing to age, state officials were told,
"because anyone who has had any
experience with penal or reforma
tory institutions knows that a lad
of 19 may be a more serious crim
inal than a man of 35."
The governor has already taken
steps to prevent further trouble at
the penitentiary. Now that con
ditions at the penitentiary are thor
oughly under control," Martin said
last week, "measures will be taken
at once to prevent a recurrence of
such a riot. The leaders will be
summarily dealt with." This was
taken to mean habitual criminal
charges might be filed against some
of the ringleaders of the revolt
The tourist business this year Is
the best in history. More than 1000
out-of-state automobiles come Into
Oregon every day, Secretary of
State Snell's registration records
show. July was the biggest tour
ist month Oregon has ever known,
with 30,645 non-resident registra
tions of motor vehicles. The pre
vious all-time high month was July
1929, when 23,003 was reached. More
than 130,000 cars from other states
and countries will have traveled
Oregon's highways by the end of
the year, Snell predicted. Previous
records have been 103,008 In 1929
and 100,303 last year.
The state highway commission
applied to the federal public works
administration for approval of a
$1,000,000 secondary highway con
struction program on which the
government would grant $450,000.
If the project is approved, construc
tion contracts on secondary roads
will be let for the first time since
the depression.
For the first time In recent years,
the state land board is In the mar
ket to make new loans. Clerk L.
D. Griffith said the board had $105,
000 surplus on hand. A plan to
trade Eastern Oregon range land
with the federal government under
the provisions of the Taylor Graz
ing act is also under consideration.
The state has 700,000 acres of orlg
;nal school land in Harney, Lake
and Malheur counties to sell to
stockmen, but figures it can get
better prices by trading with the
government to get the land in large
blocks.

Bert C. Hoover of Salem witness
ed two deeds in 1891. The docu
ments were found by State Treas
urer Holman in settling the estate
of an Oregon pioneer. The witness
is now Herbert C. Hoover, only
living ex-president of the United
States.
The critical forest fire season Is
here and the law against throw
ing of lighted material along the
highways will be enforced rigidly,
State Forester J. W. Ferguson
warned. Oregon this year has had
by far the smallest number of for
est fires before an Aug. 1 In several
years, but records show the most
disastrous fires occur after the first
of August and foresters are taking
no chances.

Hot Meals
DON'T MEAN A HOT KITCHEN
when you have an electric range!
The oven of an electric range
raises your kitchen tempera
ture only about one degree!
If you're tired of sweltering in the heat of
some old-fashioned cook stove, change to
electric cooking. Then you can prepare
whole meals in your oven or cooker pot and
still have a cool, comfortable kitchen.
Rock wool insulation keeps the oven heat
inside. The temperature control eliminates
the necessity of oven watching. No peeking
... no flooding your kitchen with heat.
And what a convenience it is merely to
snap a switch when you want heat for cook
ing. No fuel to cut or carry in no ashes to
carry out no dirt to clean up.
Because electric cooking saves so much,
thousands regard it as the most economical
method you can use. Certainly it is the most
convenient. So why cling to your present
method any longer? Seasonable prices and
terms to fit your budget make the
purchase of an electric range very
easy. See the displays at dealers
and our nearest office today.

HOT WATER
can be as automatic

any bother or waiting either. For an auto
matic electric water heater keeps a plenti
ful supply of hot water in storage all the
time never lets it overheat never needs
attention. 80 of your water requirements
are for hot water. So why continue to put
up with the inadequacy of toils or a tea
kettle? Electric hot water service isn't ex
pensive. Let us give you details today.
