He made this clear in his message to the legislature the day the session convened and still wants that formula followed. 'The governor wants this legis lature to find revenue sources for all such appropriations made for the coming biennium. He wants the state books to balance on the opening day of the 1953 legislature. HIGH COST VS. EMERGENCY State building needs have had a rough time during the past de cade. There were eight years of skim py building during the depression followed by World war n mat stagnated building until it was supposed fo be over. Post war building costs went up 25 per cent, then to 50 per cent. The board of control and the leg islature decided to "wait until things come down." Adversely, they are still climbing and are now up 120 per cent. In the pasf decade the population of the state has increased 64 per cent; with matching increases in state gov ernment business. Two large of fice buildings have been con structed in Salem and one in Portland. All are fully occupied and still the old office building is crowded. The sf ate income tax department is crowded to a point where the state is losing money for lack of space for auditors and other workers. And what depart ment produces more revenue than the state income tax department? TOP PRIORITY CONTINGENCY There is dire emergency with pathetic needs for state institu tional buildings. The wards of the state cannot be cared for as they should for the lack of suitable buildings and facilities. The old state mental hospital is a fire trap with the threat of a catastro phe always present.

PLAUDIT DENIED MacARTHUR The state senate resolutions committee this week tabled a re solution commending General Douglas MacArthur that had been passed by the house. This action virtually kills the resolution. . The measure passed the house with only six dissenting votes, all by democratic representatives. FOR HIGHER EDUCATION A total of $3,220,000 has been requested of the ways and means committee by the state board of higher education for new con struction work and expansion of departments at the University of Oregon and the Oregon State Col lege; $500,000 for expansion of the U of O school of journalism; $700,000 for the social science and business administration building at U of O; $600,000 for U of O medical school hospital; addi tions and remodeling of home economics building at OSC and $690,000 for a new wing of the chemical engineering building at OSC. The total asked for U of O is $1,800,00 and $1,420,000 for OSC. RECORD BREAKING SESSION Confusion, Confucius, or what you will, thte legislature has set an all-time record for record j breaking. There have been too few com mittees with some members on several committees and both committees meeting at the same time. The change in cutting down committees was supposed to save time and costs, but it backfired. It has worn down the ltaders and adds up for a longer session.
