Meier's veto of the repeal of the three-mill tax levy on real prop erty passed by the special session. The vote, after the governor's mes sage of more than 1500 ' words was read, stood 44 to 13 to sustain the veto, thus replacing the levy for 1633, preceding the vote aeries or comer- ences between legislative leaders, state officials and iffomlnent Portland bankers gave assurances that a veto was necessary to retain the credit of the state and that if the bill were vetoed, the legislature would sustain the action. The assurances were borne out by official action. Warrant Basis Vetoed. The governor also vetoed the bill making it possible for the state to go on a warrant basis. It was officially stated in the legislature that this measure was lecommended by State Treasurer Rufus C. Holman to the special session. Simultaneous with the veto of this bill, typewritten sheets were given out to some legis lators bearing the program urged by the state treasurer. These sugges tions criticised activities of the gov ernor, the board of control, state pur chasing agent, the auditing system and the budget department. The breach between the governor and Holman likewise was widened when Holman was not invited into the executive conferences on state fi nances while a deputy from his office had been called In The first break between the two officials, however, dates back aeveral months earlier when the governor refused to remove William Elnstg as purchasing Agent at the demand of the treasurer. Budget Pruned. But during all this activity the ways and means committees have started to work on the big task of pruning the budget, and most members have settled down to start active business at the beginning of the second week. And during this week will see some Important legislation introduced. Among the latter will be the seven point program of the public utilities commission for a greater curb on utilities and sweeping reforms in con trol. Charles M. Thomas, in an nouncing the proposed bill which will Include his entire program, stated the act would be Introduced In the senate next week, bearing the names of at least 10 members of the legis lature. Program Outlined. The program of Thomas includes: Require public utilities to pay the costs in connection with investiga tion of their several operations. Grant to the utilities commissioner full authority to supervise securities, sales, mergers and other -similar transactions. t Provide for recapture of the excess above a reasonable rate of return for creation of a reserve fund to be dis bursed by the utility for the benefit of its customers and under the direct supervision of the utilities commis sioner. Place the making of all budgets under the supervisory control of the public utilities commissioner, who would have the power to veto any ex penditure or to withhold approval from the expenditure of a portion of the budgeted item. Must Incorporate. Compel all public utilities formed In the future for operation In Ore gon to Incorporate under Oregon law. Confer upon the utilities commis sioner the same Jurisdiction In the matter of contempt as that now held by the circuit court. Prohibit payment, directly or lndl directly, to any corporation having an affiliated interest, for any services until the payment has first been ap proved by the utilities commissioner.
