Apply Diamond EFFORT 10 REGAIN Validity of the county court' aale of Dan WaUon'a timber homeatead In th Prospect district, to Oeorge L. Jantzer. aawmlll operator, for tax delinquency, and the legality of the Oregon tu law, la upheld In an opinion handed down yesterday by Circuit Judge H. D. Norton. The caae haa been hanging fire lnce laat January. The county waa represented by District Attorney Oeorge A. Codding, jantzer by At torney Prank J. Newman, and Wat son by Attorney Oeorge M. Roberta. The caee and findings held much of public Interest. The brief history of the case It: Wataon owned the timber home stead on which he filed ahortly after the war. It la located about three mllea from the Earl Ulrich mall box on the Crater Lake highway. Janzer last winter built a aawmlll on the road and made ready for aprlng op eration. Taxea on the homestead lapsed In the sum of approximately 133 and Jantzer purchased the land on a tax delinquency certificate and the county court Issued a deed. Wataon, then through counael, proffered the tax amount and sought to block possession by Jantzer, questioning the legality of the aale. The caae then wended Us way through a labyrinth of legal procedure to the decision of yesterday. The opinion holds that the county court was acting within Ita rights and In accordance with Oregon law and that It la sustained by decis ions of the atate supreme court.

(AP) Counties will receive approximately (1,500,000 for unemployment relief from revenue of the Oregon state liquor commis sion at the end of 1935, the commis sion estimated at a meeting held here yesterday.

Expenditure of federal funds In large amounts, betterment of labor conditions during the harvest months In this section, and return of pros perity, are also advanced as reasons why curtailment of relief expendi tures can be made. All over the na tion, counties have taken steps for lessening the relief burden this win ter, and eventually ending It, as far as possible, the county officials point out. There has been an improvement In In local relief conditions, scores of those receiving funds striving to help themselves by saving and laying by food and money for winter neads. To this class there la a strong disposition on the part of the public and official dom to render aid. A small minority feel that the county relief funds are limitless, and that they are not bound to self-help moves. It Is this class for which the restrictions are imposed, the court said. 1 SALEM, Aug. 15.
