Charles West, a former congressman
and now liaison man between the
president and Capitol Hill.
The house, many members said, has
been in a resentful mood for weeks.
They said a number of things con
tributed to this, among them:
1. Repeated concessions by the ad
ministration to the senate after simi
lar con sessions had been refused the
house;
2. A feeling by house members
that they were not getting patronage
while senators were;
3. The president's apparent wil
lingness to deal and talk with mem
bers other than the regularly elected
Democratic leaders;
4. Recent activity of "liaison" men
and "brain trusters."
The spark for the Initial explosion
was provided by a Republican. Repre
sentatlve Brewster of Maine. He said
Corcoran had warned him work on
the t36.000.000 Passamaquoddy power
project in Maine would be stopped
unless Brewster voted for the uttll
ties "death sentence."
Representative Moran (D., Maine)
denied this. He said Corcoran sim
ply warned that Brewster would not
longer be "trusted to proceed" with
legal work In connection with "Quod-
dy."

SALEM, July 3. A delegation
from Portland, representing the vari
ous Interests In aviation, including
both commercial and sport flying,
was In conference with Governor
Martin here today, urging several
changes In the present state board
of aeronautics and laying before the
executive a program to further avia
tion in Oregon. t
Need for a definite program, in
cluding the enforcement of state laws
In aviation, was brought to a climax
by the tragic death two weeks ago
of Benton H- Luttrcll, who crashed
with his plane which should never
have been licensed. Stewart Wless.
head of the delegation, declared.
The delegation stated there were
no personal animosities with the
present board, but did state that
none of the personnel now were fly
ing, and did not take sufficient In
terest in aviation to advance the pro
gram. It was learned the governor had
planned to appoint an entirely new
board, but authentic information
stated he was now considering only
two or three changes. The appoint
ment of T. R. Glllenwater of Klam
ath Falls appeared assured. It was
believed further that Dr. Carl Bart-
lett of Baker and Raymond R. Staub
would be retained on the board. The
other members are Russell Lawson, I.
B. Hick am and Charles Reynolds.
