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.
The finding also notes that Wat.
son failed to redeem the property
within the time allowed and "doubts
hie right to question the validity
of the aale by the county court."
aa hta legal Interest, under Oregon
law. expired with failure of redemp
tlon. It la understood an appeal will be
taken to the high court.

LIQUOR EXPECTED
BY END OF 1935
SALEM, Aug. 15. (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.
The meeting was called mainly for
the purpose of making recommenda
tions to the control board regarding
the recent proposal to Issue certifi
cates or Indebtedness against the
state liquor fund to match federal
unemployment relief mcney. A pre
viously adopted resolution by the
board would issue these certificates
In an amount not exceeding $1,250.
000 and at a rate of not more than
260,000 monthly.
The commission voted yesterday to
recommend to the board of control
that the final maturity date of the
certificates of Indebtedness be fixed
as of December 31. 1935, with option
that they can be retired serlolly each
90 days after January 1, 1935, In
amounts to be determined by the
board.
The 91,500,000 estimate of revenue
for the next 17 months was con
sidered conservative by George Neu-
ner, attorney for the commission, who
cited the fact that sales were mount
ing and permits being Issued dally.

TO LOSE PLACE
ON RELIEF ROLL
(Contlnuea frum page one)
The heaviest drain on Jackson
county finances Is the relief funds,
and the county court feels conserva
tion of the slim funds, for the good of
the majority, is consistent with good
business policy.
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.
