Flying Trip
Budget Scanning
By A. L LINDBECK
Salem. An additional 1584 re
cruits will be needed to bring Ore
gon's national guard units up to
full peace time strength.
This was revealed by records of
the adjutant general office here fol
lowing unofficial but apparently re
liable reports that the guard would
be put on a peace time footing im
mediately following its mobilization
into the regular army, tentatively
set for September 16.
At the present time there are 4567
officers and men in the Oregon
guard contingents. These include the
162d and 186th infantry regiments,
the 218th field artillery regiment,
the 249th coast artillery corps, the
Lebanon company of the 116th medi
cal regiment and the headquarters
companies and detachments of the
41st division and 82d brigade.
It is understood here that there
will be a period of ten days between
actual mobilization of the guard
and the departure of the units from
their home stations for camp at Fort
Lewis. This time will be allowed the
men to set their private affairs in
order for ther extended absence
from home. During this waiting per
iod also efforts will be made to
bring the various units up to peace
strength by intensive recruiting
drives in the various cities in which
guard organizatons are located.
Supporters of the candidacy of
Dean Walker for the presidency of
the state senate are now claiming
that the veteran Polk county legis
lator has enough votes pledged to
assure his election. The only other
candidate for this post so far is
Senator Douglas McKay of Marion
county.
Reargument of the highly con
' troversial antl-picketing case before
the state supreme court has been
scheduled for early October when
it is expected that all seven justices
will sit in on the arguments. When
the case was argued before the high
court several months ago two mem
bers were absent, Justice Bean being
ill and Justice Bailey being absent
from the state,
Accumulated profits from the
state's liquor monoply permitted of
the retirement of $400,000 of the li
quor certificates which had previous
ly been issued to keep the state re
lief budget on a cash basis, State
Treasurer Pearson announced. This
leaves only $100,000 of the certifi
cates still outstanding but retire
ment of the certificates has left the
relief cupboard bare again so that
it will be necessary to float another
loan immediately, Pearson explained.
State Budget Director Eccles has
found it necessary to warn the man'
agement of the Oregon, exhibit at
the San Francisco fair against un
authorized expenditures. In a letter
to Mrs. Mabelle Marble, manager of
the state's exhibit, Eccles declared
that he is "greatly concerned" over
the condition of the exhibit's finan
ces and warned that in the future no
expenditures should be made unless
first approved by the World's Fair
commission.
Members of the Oregon State
Board of Control made a flying trip
to Lake county Saturday.
Boarding a plane at the Salem
airport Saturday morning the of
ficial party made the 300 mile hop
to Lake county, attended to their
business, took in the Laheview
round-up and were back in the cap
ital that night.
Business that took the board mem
bers to Lake county was the inspec
tion of 10,000 acres of swamp land
the state owns in south Warner
Lake. The board also visited the
ranch of William Kittredge, Lake
county stockman, who has reclaimed
some 4000 acres of land similar to
that owned by the state and which
is now in a state of high productiv
ity. Kittredge has proposed to lease
the state lands which he would also
reclaim and the board is understood
Heppner
Ellis Says Sheep
Industry Threatened
"Inequalities in AAA which are
moving eastern Oregon's sheep pop
ulation to farm flocks in the middle
west must be ironed out," declared
Senator Rex Ellis, republican nom
inee for congress, when in Heppner
Tuesday. "I find an alarmed bunch
of large sheep operators in this sec
tion who can see finish written to
their operations operations that are
bearing a big share of the local tax
burden unless something is done
about it."
Senator Ellis said the provision
in AAA that pays middle western
farmers for taking land out of corn
production and for putting in forage
crops is resulting in those farmers
going into sheep breeding where be
fore they did only feeding. The re
sult has been the moving of the cen
ter of sheep population eastward,
much to the economic insecurity of
eastern Oregon counties where the
income from sheep has been very
important The senator promised he
would do all in his power to protect
eastern Oregon's large sheep indus
try if he is elected in November.
Senator Ells spent the day here
visiting prospective supporters in
November, and gave an insight into
his legislative record at the Tuesday
Lions luncheon.

There is still a lot of room for
improvement in Oregon's public
school system in the opinion of Rex
Putnam, state superintendent of pub
lic instruction. Many of the state's
979 one-room schools could be con
solidated to the advantage of both
the taxpayers who support these in
stitutions and the pupils who attend
them, Putnam said. Putnam also
favors a re-vamping of the method
by which education in this state is
supported in order to equalize the
financial burden. ,
The 74 law-school graduates who
successfully passed the bar exami
nation held here this summer are
to appear before the supreme court
to take the oath of office as at
torneys on September 20.
Board or control members are
scrutinizing biennial budgets of the
several state institutions. Particular
attention is being given by the board
to building needs of the several in
stitutions. While most of the build
ing requests are admittedly meri
torious, state finances will not per
mit of the construction of all needed
buildings during the next biennium.
It will be up to the board, therefore,
to pass upon the various requests
and decide which shall have priority
before the budgets are submitted to
the legislature when it convenes in
January.
A flagpole for the new capital is
nearing materialization. Designs for
this improvement were placed before
the board of control this week. When
the board makes up its mind as to
the type of pole to be erected the
improvement will be financed out
of unexpended funds in the approp
riation for the state library.
Events other than strictly state
business have been occupying much
of the time of high state officials
during the past month. First there
was the Salem Centennial in which
a number of officials appeared as
participants in the governor's ball.
These included Governor Sprague,
Secretary of State Snell, State Trea
surer Pearson, Justices Rossman and
Kelly of the supreme court and
others. Then came the notification
ceremonies for Senator Charles L.
McNary last week with another call
upon the time of officialdom. This
week it was the state fair with its
two holidays Labor Day (Monday)
and Salem Day (Wednesday) to
again cut in on the regular routine.
