"In many of the serious Questions wlrch will be put forward durine the nnxt 40 duvs vou will have no prece dents to puide you. You will. in.a cer tain positive sense, be pioneers." 1 Referring to the proud war record of Oregon and the need to, provide proper care .for the bovs . returning home, the mcssnee next dealt with the, ouestion ;of land settlement, "espe-j cial) v as it a f feels the returning sol diers and sailors who are entitled to cverv encouragement as thev return to; civil life." ' Four ohjises of this1 subject are to be considered, the eov-. ernor declared, rthe. clearing' of log ged off lands, reclamation of irritated lands,- droinnce of swamp lands and the subdivision of farms in humid sections. . To Help Soldiers rt '. "Congress." said the governor, "will nndoiibtcdlv make some provis ion for federal assistance in this work, but it will probably be condi tional upon state co-operation. This will, of course, involve a new system of financing. Under our present 6 per cent limitation there is only one way. as view it, that we could under take this, enterprise, and 'that would be through a rational bonding system that would meet with the approval of the electorate of the state." v" Preferential rights ...for ' returned soldiers, in contracts for employment on public works, such as highway con struction, was urged unon the legisv lnture. The governor also asked pas sage of a bill providing that soldiers absent on active duty be allowed to vote, and urged enactment of a bill fixing penalty for treason. , He point ed out that there is now no penalty for treason on the statute books of Oregon and urged that this wonld be a' good time to "set down in the statutes. Oregon's appraisal of I. W. W.ism and other forms of disloyalty. so that there may never be any mis understanding as to the degree of punishment Oregon courts and iuries would mete out to disloyal persons." ' j, ' ; : Wonts New Sli ips ' : After describing the tremendous natural resources of the state, the ex ecutive declared there is need of a strong merchant, marine maned by Oregon men and managed by Oregon- inns. "If we are to. harvest. Oregonls run crop we must look lorward to ward a development of commercial as wel as- industrial and agricultural re sources," be said. "Our great prob lem' is to create stable markets for the products of Oregon forests and milieu' and of Oregon farms, gardens and orchards.'. Therefore I earnestly recommend that this legislature dis patch, a joint memoral to the con gress tf the United States strongly urging upon' the federal government the advisability of buildinc a Inrge number of shins that could be' char tered rendilv to the business men in const states on terms that would en able thera to compete successfully wjth any shippers in the world.. ;, ', ' J' Wants State Police . .. j .lAftor refemng to the good- wrtrk of the state ' police, ', "desp'tc the vicious' criticisms leveled against this orgiuiirution by the lawless element M'(insc hnpifs were rudely . interrupted bvMhe'nHivitics.bf the state police.) and bv ran nv - well ' iueiiriing cit'-zens . whowore not informed truth tullv. the message recommended the .cstablish tuent of A state constnbulhrlv of .ted or fifteen men ns a smnll mobile force for state police duty.
