Thursday, Jan. 19, 1939 Heppner Gazette Times, Heppner, Oregon Page Seven SINEWS o Smith Confirmation o Social Security o Bakeries Protest By A. L. UNDBECK, Salem Confirmation of the ap pointment of Edgar W. Smith of Portland as a member of the state board of higher education has pro vided the only controversial issue of the legislative session to date. Smith's confirmation is opposed by a number of senators. In fact the opposition claim 13 votes or more than enough to block confirmation, while Smith's supporters claim 23 votes or enough to confirm with at least three to spare. When the question of Smith's con firmation came up during the first week of the session it was put over until Monday and made a special order of business. At that time in stead of coming to a vote the mat ter was referred to a special com mittee of five members for further consideration. Two objections are raised to Smith's onfirmation. One of these is his membership on the milk con trol board. Several senators who otherwise will vote to confirm Smith's appointment have indicated that they will not support him un less and until he relinquishes his milk board post. The other objection is to Smith's activity in affairs of the University of Oregon. Partisans of the state college fear that their interests might be jeopardized by the presence of a university man on the board. Governor Sprague in a special message to the House and Senate Monday called attention to objec tions raised by the federal Social Security board to Oregon's defin ition of labor disputes as set forth in the piketing bill' approved by the voters at the November election. In an effort to overcome this objection attorneys for the Unemployment Compensation commission have drafted an amendment to the com pensation act in which they attempt to set up a definition of labor dis putes in conformity with the require ments of the federal board but ap plicable only to the jobless insurance law. Attorneys for organized labor express themselves as entirely dis satisfied with the proposed amend ments and members of the' legisla ture who have studied the proposed amendment frankly admit that they do not know what its effect will be. In order to get the amendment un der way, however, the senate com mittee on revision of law has agreed to bring it out in the form of a bill and then to hold a number of hear ings on the subject before the law makers are asked to pass on the measure. T. Morris Dunne, chairman of the Oregon Unemeployment com pensation commission, told the sen ate committee Monday that unless the Oregon law was made to con form to the federal requirements his commission would be compelled to close all of its offices throughout Oregon on February 1 for lack of funds to pay administrative costs. The Ellis-Wipperman bill to abol ish the state bakery board has the bakery interests of the state up in arms. A public hearing on the meas ure has been ' scheduled for next Tuesday night in the hearing room of the new capitol. Farmers . and poultrymen might find themselves seriously handi capped in the shipment of chickens if a bill introduced by Senator Wal lace should receive legislative ap proval. The measure would require a permit from the game commission in order to ship birds from one county to another. Chickens, it is explained, are classed as non-game birds.
