Cadet training program, which is open to healthy, single young
men between 18 and 25, with at least two years of college. Upon
graduation they are commissioned ensigns in the Naval Reserve,

Reviews the
Legislature
By Giles L. French
The senate's verson of how to
change the tax system was re
vealed lute last week and passed
by the members of that body
with small debate and smaller
understanding.
Lest there lie undue criticism
of the senators let us hasten to
say that understanding the re
vised House hills 5 and 24 is a
job requiring some long days or
a well prepared and lightning
mind. Actually the bills divert
the income and excise tax funds
to the general fund for legislative
appropriation, but do so in lan
guage so involved that sponsors
are able to say with some show
of truth that the bills preserve
the tax-offset provision.
Unless HJR 9 is also passed the
property tax payer will have suf
fered irreparable damage from
the hands of the senate taxation
! committee. What members of
that group expect to do about
; HJR 9 is not being told and dis
cussions about it are couched in
terms as indeterminate as are
the bills on the other parts of the
tax program.
Briefly the senate has divided
'income and excise funds both
past and present, has spent in
come tax funds first, even though
there is much less legality and

normality about spending thern
at all, lies diverted money un
necessarily, has approved two
measures more difficult to un
derstand than any other part of
Oregon tax law, which has been
often attacked as too hard to un
derstand. Tin- semle has inissed an op
portunity to take a step, toward
simrilifieelion and has, in fact,
backed up several steps. Perhaps,
and probably, it will be passed
by the house as it was by the
senate. Not because It Is good or
because it is understood, but be
cause the members are tired and
anxious to get home, because they
will not read, it, because few
would understand it if they did.
Thus it Is proven that it Is often
as valuable to think last in.a leg
islative session as to think best.
The bill to change the method
of dividing highway moneys to
the counties had another hard
week but did some out of the
highway committee which is
more than fyiy similar bill has
ever done. As of now it would
Mlvp Multnomah county 34 of its
regular share and divide the dif
ference which would give some
$400,000 to other counties. The
terms of division for cities gives
Portland 2 3 of its share. A half
dozen methods of dividing the
funds were figured out but none
could get enough votes to get out
of committee.
This isn't much, and it is a long
way from final enactment yet,
but it is a start.
The senate approved the bill
giving clubs the right to keep and
sell hard liquor (the master lock
er plan) with some other provi
sions which lighten the Knox law
somewhat, but not so extensively
as at first expected.
The senate has passed out
IIB 193, the bill for an additional
$30 per month for census chil
dren for schools. The money
would be paid on a strict TDM
(total days membership) basis
which provides another handicap
to eastern Oregon. It may pass
the senate if teachers are able to
obtain pledges as they did in the
house and then it will have to go
to the people.
...
Adjournment now seems ten
days away, perhaps the night be
fore Easter or thereabouts. The
senate still has unemployment
compensation, workmen's com
pensation, game, highways, final
on education and taxation and
some other smaller stuff. The
house has the bonus, now not
nearly so popular as when first
debated. When means of financ
ing is added to it it isn't so pop
ular which if like the old con
servative policy of reading the
right side of the menu first.
What is handicapping the sen
ate is the eternal and intermin
able talking of Senators Carson of
Marlon and Neuberger of Mult
nomah who have spent half of
the entire senate's debate time
and show no sign of slackening
their gab. Neither is a good talk
er, seldom does either have any
thing of moment to contribute,
but each is enamored with the
sound of his own voice and im
pressed with the jewel-like qual
ity of their ideas.

(From last week)
-The boys are getting tired and
weary of it all. Citizens can tell
that when the senate, and house
members begin calling names
and comparing records. Last Sat
urday, for instance, a senator
with a reputation for words sur
passing his reputation for work
iterated the house as noisy and
the speaker as inefficient. Vell,
some people get that way when
the majority refuse to pass their
hills and an ability to take it
helps any legislator. If he pro
poses any legislative program of
any consequence he will find op
position. Tax bills are expected to be
decided upon by the senate com
mittee early in the week. Many
hearings and no little effort to
become fully informed have de
layed final decisions. Also the
fact that no one knows how much
money the ways and means will
need has slowed tax matters. No
one knows what will come out
of the committee to date but
there is certain to be division.
HJR 9 may get a divided report.
This resolution would let the peo
ple vote on the proposition of
doing away with the property tax
for state purposes. That is t!e
most important bit of tax legis
lation so far mentioned except
for the matter of raiding the in
come and excise tax lunds for
the general fund. Whether en
lOugh legislators are tired enough
to relax their sense ot public
morals and permit the raid is
not known. Regular procedure
would be to let the people make
the decision.
It is expected that the high
way program will go through
much as started in the hous.
which meant additional taxes
and additional road building.
The interim committee found a
desire for more and better mads
more general than a desire fee
smaller fees. What will happen
as to building highways outside
cities or grand passageways in
side cities cannot be foretold but
probably the cities would lose
in a straight vote on the mea
sure. Not even all of Portland fa
vors the Sullivan's Gulch road.
The bill to divide the highway
funds sent to the counties on a
different basis has had a bad
week. Not enough votes could be
found in the committee to bring
it out as written. Neither would
another proposal which would
have given each county $25,000
before the distribution formula
was applied, nor twenty, nor ev
en ten. Now sponsors are trying
to get the city formula applied
which would cut Multnomah
county down to two-thirds of its

present apportionment and give
the difference to counties on the
same basis as now, which is the
number of cars registered. That
would divide about S700.000 more
than now. Inasmuch as all big
truck companies register their
vehicles in Portland some change
is needed.
As Oregon's cities get bigger
and bigger and rural areas de
cline in population it is harder
and harder to adjust such things
and more necessary that it be
done.
The senate bill for adjustment
I of county officials' salaries has
been showing some life but is
not expected to get to moving
before the final gavel.
The racing commission with its
two elements, horses and d igr,
held the spotlight last week with
wrangling and bickering over
who should get the most d;:ys
racing. As finally adjusted the
take wll be left at 12 1 2 per cent
and the days racing will be cut
to 100. Some small adjustment
will give the state a little more
money, but not enough. Had not
the speaker ruled that a bill re
pealing the whole business could
not be considered legislators
would probably have repealed
the bill permtting racing entire
ly. It attracts too many of the
wrong kind of people.
The distribution of funds will
now be in another bill. There
have been efforts to take out
everyone including the Pacific
exposition and the county fairs
but 1he committee hasn't gotten
around to talking about that fea
ture vet.

Mike Stalcup, young 4-H club
member of Boardman, is proud
of a newly purchased Spotted Po
land China herd boar. The regis
tered boar was purchased from
the Greenfield Hereford ranch,
Bakersfield, Cal., and carries
some of the best bloodlines of
the Spotted breed. Also, newly
arrived at the Stalcup farm are
17 little purebred Spotted Poland
China pigs from his two register
ed sows. Mike is kept quita busy
these days checking on the health
of his new pigs besides feeding
and caring for his fat and breed
ing beef, rabbit, and fat pig pro
jects. Ronald and Duane Baker, mem
bers of the lone Livestock club,
have recently added some more
purebred breeding stock to their
many 4-H projects already car
ried. The new additions are three
purebred Shorthorn cows and
calves purchased from a promin
ent southern breeder at Odessa,
Wash With this beef breeding
stock now added to the original
stock, the boys now have a qual
ity small herd started.
- Four-H projects now carried by
the boys consist of the beef breed
ing herd mentioned above, fat
beef, fat and purebred breeding
sheep With this good start in the
quality livestock business, the
boys will be well along with size
able herds of both sheep and
beef when they are old enough
to begin farming on their own.
These are examples of what
4-H club work is doing for our
farm boys and girls, beside the
youth training they are getting
that is so valuable.
Everything does not always go
so well for 4-H members. Dean
