Morgan's name has been men tioned as a successor to Robert Maclean, who last week gave the Stale Board of Control his resig nation, effective Septemlx'r 20. "I am definitely not interested," said Morgan when asked if he was a candidate to succeed Mac lean. Latest report is that Maclean will withdraw his resignation. UNDERGROUND PARKING An underground parking lot in the Capitol Mall was considered this week by the State Board of Control. Following a suggestion by Francis Keally, New York ar chitect, the board ordered esti mates for the underground park ing lot underneath the sunken trarden. directly north of Court Street. Jerome McDevitt was em ployed to work out preliminary plans and costs for the consider ation of the board, CROWS BLAMED The State Department of Agri culture this week blamed crows for spreading pullorum disease among Oregon turkeys. The crows pick up the disease from egg shells dumped along a creek near an egg-breaking es tablishment and from hatchery castoffs dumped in the fields for fertilizer. They then carry the disease to turkey flocks, where they are frequent visitors. STATE FAIR SETS RECORD The 87th Oregon Stale Fair, opening August 30 for an eight day run has broken records for advance seat sales, entries for premiums, exhibition space and race entries. This kind of news travels fast. Now almost everyone in Oregon is aware that this year's state fair will be the greatest in the state's history. Slate fairs are becoming more popular over the nation. In the last three years four more states have adopted a slate fair for the visual educational and know-how demonstration values the afford on many subjects that augment better living and all in a holi day. The State Fair Commissioners and Manager Leo Spitzbarl are in accord in holding admission prices down to those prevalent for the last 20 years. Television will lie both pro duced and shown at the Stale Fairgrounds during the Stale Fair. Two cameras will be used in producing real shows with the image and the sound. NEW LEGAL OPINIONS Attorney General George Neu ner this week gave 1 lie following opinions on Oregon laws: Governor Douglas McKay does not have authority to expend money from li is emergency fund to indemnify owners ot nogs slaughtered by order of the Stale Agriculture Department because of being infected with vesicular exanthema. (Owners of hoes destroyed by stale order hav e two alternatives of recouping their losses. One is going into the courts and the other is filing claims with the next legislature.) A covenant deed given in 1S83, prohibited the sale or disposal of Intoxicating liquor upon the granted premises, is unenforce able by reason of grantor's and assign's actjuiesence in permit ting the use of property for sale of liquor for many years, and by reason of their failure to assert a right of reentry w'ithin a rea sonable time. The forfeiture clause does not constitute an en cumbrance upon title so as to pro hibit the issuance of a home loan to a veteran by the director of veterans' affairs. CAPITOL HEAT WAVES Recent remull of a story that grew musty two years ago is that Senator Condon will resign after the first of the year, Governor Douglas McKay will then resign, making Senate President Paul Patterson governor, who will ap point McKay to the unexpired term o f Condon. Nothing wrong with the story except that none of the alleged participants plays that brand of politics.
