A 90-day session s generally
predicted This would be a new I
record, exceeding the 1947 session I
of the Oregon legislature by one
week.
At least one-hall of Ihe more'
important bills are yet to be dealt
with. New bills are still coming
in, and, what is unusual for this
time of the session, many of them
are potent anoVfar-reaching as
they relate to other legislation.
The number of bills introduced
at this session is expected to
total 1000.
The report of the important
joint ways and means committee
has been delayed by intense-and
careful research by sub commit
tees. Taxation committees, that
are expected to design the tax
structure, have no mark to shoot
at until the report of the ways
and means committee has been
clearly indicated by reaction of
ihe two houses. Just now it looks
like the deficiency in the bien
nal budget will exceed $00,000,
000. NEW BILLS
Among new bills introduced
the past week were acts to re
quire all convicts in prison to
work at furnishing food, mater
ials and supplies for state and
county institutions; direct legis
lature to meet every year and a
resolution to require a vote of the
people on the questin; tax ships
registered in Oregon 10 per cent
of their value; require brass tags
be furnished with dog licenses;
reduce number of justices of su
preme court from seven to five
members; require state depart
ments to stay within their bud
gets and a companion bill pro
viding that the emergency board
only to approve deficiencies be
tween, legislative sessions.
GEN. HERSHEY IN OREGON
Gen. L. B. Hershey, national
selective service director, was in
Salem last Thursday on an in
spection tour and left for Olym
pia and Seattle, Wash., after
short vists with Governor Douglas
McKay and Adjutant Gen. Thom
as E. Rilea.
Hershey said that enlistments
in the armed services slowed up
last September because con
gress pruned the selective ser
vice budget.
This is his second trip through
Oregon recently. He came via
Medford and thru the Willam
ette valley. On his first trip he
came up the coast highway,
which, he said, "can't be beat."
FOPULATION ESTIMATE
The state board of health esti
mates Oregon's population in
creased 47,500 the fiscal year end
ing June 30, in 1948. The board
did not disclose the source of its
belated estimate which is 145,200
Jess than that of the census bu
reau estimate made several
months ago.
The figures showed a popula
tion increase of nearly 50 per
cent since 1910.
ALASKA DAMS NEXT
Legislators have received in
formation that a long range de
velopment plan for Alaska's vast
potential water resources is un
der way by army engineers. "Na
tional security and the strategic
importance of our northern ter
ritory," are emphasized by Col.
Theron D. Weaver, North Pacific
division engineer at Portland,
Oregon, who released the an
nouncement. The project is comparable in
scope to the three-billion dollar
Columbia hasin program.
"Perhaps Oregon and Washing
ton will need Alaska's water and
power if California's sleal of the
Columbia river is allowed to go
through, an august senator com
mented. SCHOOL FUNDS PRORATED
On the basis of $50 for each
! child of school age in the district
8,133,225 was distributed to Ore
gon schools this week. This is the
second half of the basic school
support fund for the fiscal year
1948-1949.
Multnomah county received the
largest share, $1,660,608, and
Wheeler county the smallest,
$20,794.
BIG TOURIST CROP SEEN
An early season one-day peak
of nearly 3000 inquiries about
Oregon as a tourist vacation land
has been received by the travel
and information department
which can be taken as assurance
that the tourists are coming in as
great if not greater numbers than
ever before. The department has
been stressing the advantages of
the spring months and Indian
summer days in Oregon. Current
ly being compiled is a list of
coming events for wide distribu
tion, says director Manley Rob
ison. Rodeo, festival and general
celebration dates and details will
be included.
YOUNG LOBBYISTS
Heaviest lobbies of the session
have thronged the legislative
halls the past week. They were
imostly young 4-H and Future
