By A. L. UNDBECK
SALEM Death of Justice J. U.
Campbell leaves a vacancy on the
state's supreme court bench to be
filled through appointment by Gov
ernor Martin. Should the governor
promote a circuit judge to this post,
which is the logical procedure back
ed by innumerable precedents, an
other vacancy will be created with
which to reward some deserving
Democrat. For it is generally taken
for granted that such appointments
as are made will go to members of
the governor's own party. Especially
is this assumption warranted when
consideration is given to the wealth
of high grade judicial material in
the Democratic ranks.
Outstanding among the circuit
judges being mentioned in connec
tion with the supreme court appoint
ment are G. F. Skipworth of Eu
gent; Hall S. Lusk of Portland; Earl
Latourette of Oregon City; H. D.
Norton of Medford and Edward B.
Ashurst of Klamath Falls. Demo
cratic attorneys regarded as well
qualified for the post include Evan
Reames of Medford, Oscar Hayter
of Dallas and W. H. Strayer of Ba
ker. Geograhpically speaking, one of
the southern Oregon Democrats
would appear to hold an advantage
over aspirants from other sections
of the state. Portland is already rep
resented by two justices on the su
preme bench George Rossman and
J. O. Bailey. Two others hail from
eastern Oregon, John L. Rand from
Baker and Henry J. Bean from Pen
dleton. The remaining two members
are from mid - Willamette valley
counties, H. H. Belt from Polk coun
ty and Percy R. Kelly from Linn
county.
It has been suggested that the su
preme court vacancy might offer a
solution to the deadlock over the
Oregon federal judgeship. That is
that the governor might offer the
state job to either Judge Lusk or
Claude McCollock as a consolation
prize on condition that they with
draw from the contest for the fed'
eral appointment.
Justice Campbell. 71. whose Dass
ing came suddenly shortly before
b:OU p. m. Jmday, had been a mem.
ber of the supreme court since Jan
uary, 1931. Previously for 28 years
he had served as circuit judge of
two years as chief justice of the su
preme court and was just entered
Clackamas county. He had served
upon his second six-year term as a
supreme court justice.
Plans for opening bids, on a new
construction program at the eastern
Oregon tuberculosis hosnital at The
Dalles were halted Saturday when
the board of control was advised by
C. C. Hockley, state director for the
PWA that prospects were now good
for obtaining federal aid for this
project. The board had decided
against federal aid when the PWA
grants were placed on a strictly relief-labor
basis. According to Hock
ley PWA is now back on the old 55
45 basis. The state already has an ap
plication in for $78,193 of federal
money and it is believed that the
grant can be cleared within three
weeks. The program at The Dalles
includes a 50-bed hospital unit, a
STATE
CAPITAL
physicians residence, heating plant
and laundry and an addition to the
nurses home. Total cost of the pro
gram is estimated at $173,762. The
last legislature appropriated $115,
000 toward these improvements but
if the federal grant comes through
it is expected that $20,000 of the
state appropriation will be saved.
Minimum wages for women and
minors employed in Oregon indus
tries will be increased from 27 to
30c an hour on October 1, according
to Charles H. Gram, state labor com
missioner and secretary of the State
Welfare commission. At the same
time maximum hours of employ
ment for women and minors will be
reduced to 44 hours a week. The new
regulations will cover manufactur
ing, needlecraft occupations, mer
cantile establishments, hotels, res
taurants and cafeterias and tele
phone and telegraph operators.
Appointment of J. D. Ross of Se
attle as administrator of the Bonne
ville power project would be detri
mental to Oregon's interests in the
opinion of Governor Martin who
charges that leaders in the fitrht for
cheap power have "sold out to Se
attle. The governor blames the as
cendency of the Seattle candidate nn
the pulling and hauling engaged in
by Oregon interests which hav
never been able to get together eith
er on matters of policy or on a can
didate for the ob of administrator.
Declaring that he is "out of sten"
W. L. Gosslin, Nicklas J. Zvlstra of

declaration of intention to seek the

been mentioned as a possible candi
date for the congressional rxst al
though he is still registered as a
voter in Multnomah county.
