'MEDFORD l VJU TRIBUTE, MEDFORD, OREGON", TUESDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1933 PAGE THREE BIDDERS FRIDAY PORTLAND, Oct. 17. (AP) Engi neers In charge of the Bonneville dam construction said today that specifi cations will be Issued to contractors Thursday or Friday of thla week for an excavating job to cost around 1,000,000 at the dam site. The date on which bids will be received will be announced at the same time. The work will be done at the dam site proper and will consist of excava tions for the foundations of the structure and for the power house . and ship locks equipment. Most of I the excavating will be done on the shores of the Columbia and on Brad ford Island, although considerable under-water work will be necessary. As soon as this project Is completed, concrete may be poured. It was explained here today that the (31,000,000 Bonneville navigation power dam allotment does -iot In clude funds for developing the chan nel of the Columbia to the dam site, to permit sea-going vessels to reach the structure. The present channel will suffice, It was said, for river steamers, barges and other shallow draft shipping. The 35-foot channel In the Columbia Is maintained only ' to the mouth of the Willamette river, and that at great expense. BY STATE COURT (Continued Horn Page One) opoly, and unreasonably exempts certain classes ox carriers irom eharges Imposed upon others, are all denied In the opinion. Relative to the alleged Imposition on private and contract haulers of the duties and burdens of common carriers the opinion says: "In order to enforce the require ments of the act It is undoubtedly necessary to vest the commissioner of public utilities with authority to grant and cancel permtls, to require reports and other Information from the motor carriers subject to his Jurisdiction and to promulgate such rules In respect thereto as he may deem advisable. The functions per formed by contract carriers are In many respects similar to those of common carriers by truck. It does not appear that the latter possess any special privileges or monopoly or business. Both are granted the use of the highways on certain con ditions. Subject To Regulation "It Is not shown that the commis sioner has promulgated any rules or regulations as to contract carriers, or that he has any rules or regula tions in mind, which will adversely affect the complalntant and others similarly situated. Much of the busi ness of the contract carriers Is done under special contracts with their patrons, and It Is not beyond the power of the legislature to provide that copies of such contracts or agreements be filed with the com missioner 'before they become ef fective.' This does not mean, how ' ever, that the contract carrier must, prior to actual performance of any work, file the Individual contract therefor with the commissioner, as under section 23 of the act the com missioner is given authority to fix the time within which copies of these contracts are to be filed with him." Liability Sustained The provision that certain carriers are not required to post public lia bility and property damage Insur ance demanded of others Is sus tained, the court holding that "there appears no reason why the legisla ture should not have made this dis tinction." "In determining the validity of an ' act which has been attacked, the courts must and should resolve all doubt In favor of Its constitutional ity; and If the statute is reasonably susceptible of two constructions, one of which will render It constitutional and the other unconstitutional, the former will prevail." the opinion states. "Unless the nullity and In validity of the act are placed be yond reasonable doubt In the Judg ment of the courts, the act will not be declared void. "In passing upon the validity of the act . . . we have no right to consider the desirability, expediency, policy or wlfdom of its enactment. That Is the function of the legisla tive branch of our government. "The act In question involves many administrative features which csnnot be worked out and prescrib ed In detail by the legislature, and must necesssrlly be left to someone else to formulate and administer. This is not a delegation of legisla tive authority." PRINCETON, N. J.. Oct. 17.

W ' Hi LIBERTY BONDS (Continued Hum Page One.) day answered Chancellor Adolpf Hit ler of Germany by questioning the reich's reasons for withdrawing from the disarmament conference. The premier arose in a tense, crowded chamber of deputies, and slowly demanded from the rostrum: "Why, if Germany Is ready to de stroy all armaments, why do they withdraw from the conference Just when we drafted a plan?" M. Daladler talked back to Hitler In his very opening phrase. He re ferred to "the grave event of the past days, Germany's withdrawal from the League of Nations and Germany's withdrawal from the arms confer ence," and , then announced that France was again ready to talk dis armament at Geneva October 26. The premier told the chamber that the government would make the eco nomic plan a matter of confidence. Replying to the German chancel lor, the premier said: "We are not deaf to any proposals, but neither are we blind to any act. "If one seeks an agreement, why begin with a rupture? Why not ac cept an honest disarmament plan? "If Germany is ready to destroy her arms down to the last rifle and tc the last machine-gun, why not ac cept a plan which could assure an effective disarmament?" The premier continued: "France Is resolved to give an example of calmness and coolness, the more so because she knows she Is able to de fend her territory and her liberty."
