He is a de voted student to governmental finnaces. When Cover-has Just cleared an entagled situation It is com mon for a member to say, "I wish we had you on our com mittee, Carl." For years Marion county poli ticians have been trying unsuc. cessfully to get the young parli mentarlan to run for the Senate.

Rep resentative Norman Howard, of Multnomah county. (Lots of spontaneous talk about Howard for Speaker in 1959). Labor has been getting the bite from Republican legislatures for 25 years, including laws that benefit none but were modeled to put labor In a bad light. Some of these situations have been ad Justed. Senator G. D. Gleason, Multnomah county. The average Oregon family gains heavily from the 1957 Democratic legislature. Gains are most mark ed in education, social welfare and taxation. The sales taxers have been rebuffed, tax favorit ism loopholes in old laws have been plugged, property tax in creases halted, the 45 per cent surtax repealed and realistic withholdings established at last. Senator Monroe Sweetland, of Clackamas county. Oil Search Encouraged A proposal to encourage drill ing for oil in Oregon has finally been introduced on the 116th day of the present session. A reward of $150,000 would be paid to the owner of each oil or gas well opening a new field in Oregon under the terms of the new bill Representative Clarence Barton of Coquille, contends that such an incentive would tend to stim ulate the search for oil and gas in this state. A well would have to produce sufficient oil or gas In a 2-year period to pay half the cost of the drilling to qualify for the prize A similar proposal was made 12 years ago by former Secretary of State Earl T. Newbry, when he was a member of the Senate, State Office Jammed One of the busiest state depart. ments during the legislature has been the office of Attorney Gen eral Robert Y. Thornton. The bi ennial sessions always tax this department to the limit. This ses sion, however, the Multnomah county epidemic of vice induce ments has added 100 per cent to the regular work. It now appears that the legisla ture will not get around to allev iating the case-jammed supreme court where two more supreme justices are badly needed. At torney General Thornton has been able, so far, to keep up with the current pressure. Recent decisions from his office include: A county is part of the consum ing public and cannot lawfully purchase, on the open market, convict-made goods, wares or merchandise shipped into Oregon from another state. A private vocational school is not prohibited by statute from is suing scholarships in such school, provided that no misleading ad. vertislng or misrepresentation is used in connection therewith.

OSC Gets $29,000 Army Grant for Weather Research OREGON STATE COLLEGE Use of radar and other new elec tronic devices for forecasting and observing weather will be stud ied by OSC this year for the U. S. army signal corps enginijering laboratories. A $29,000 grant has been given the college to conduct the re search. Dr. Fred W. Decker, assist ant professor of physics, will be in charge. The new research will involve a study of possibilities for using the new electronic equipment and new weather observation tech niques for forecasting the onset and paths of severe storms and for determining storm intensity. Merits of fixed weather radar units and portable equipment will also be comparad by the at mospheric physics research group in field studies to be conducted in the Willamette valley and Coastal and Cascade ranges. In struments and techniques needed to obtain weather data that would serve army needs in vari ous tactical situations also will be studied and recommendations made. Weather radar, radio position ing of lightning discharges, high altitude photographs and cloud base and top equipment data all will be surveyed in research on precision forecasting of onset of severe storms. How electrical storms affect com munications and other army func tions is another phase of the work. The new study follows a two year research project recently completed at OSC for the signal corps on weather effects on army operations as revealed in tactical histories of World War II and Korea. Those from here going to Cor- vallis last weekend to attend Mothers weekend at Oregon State college, were Mrs. Walter Wright, Mrs. Kay Kononen, Mrs.' James Hayes and Mrs. L. E.
