Indebtedness of Irrigation districts In
the valley will have been reduced
from approximately $2,500,000 to ap
proximately $1,000,000.
Districts now financed through RFC
loans are Eagle Point, Rogue River,
Gold Hill and Mtdford. Applications
were filed for these four districts In
August 1933, and, considering various
legal tangles that had to be straight
ened out and other necessary delays,
the loans have been closed In a sat
isfactory length of time, according
to Irrigation officials.
"the seat of government of the state
of Oregon waa not located "at" the
city of Salem, but Salem was design
ated as the seat of government, and
o remains.
"The corporate boundaries of Salem
as they existed at the time of Its
selection as the seat of government,
were fixed by the legislative act of
1863. As so fixed the southern boun
dary of the city of Salem waa the
south line of the donation land claim
of William H. Wilson, which la Identi
cal with Mission street.
"Although the corporate limit of
aald city have since been greatly en
larged, under the authorities above
cited and quoted, thla haa not en
larged the seat of government but the
same remains within the 11 mite of the
oity of Salem as they existed on the
first Monday In June, 1804, when the
election was held."
The attorney general's opinion,
unless reversed by the courts, elimi
nates all proposed altea for the capltol
with the exception of Its present old
site and the proposed annexation of
Willamette University camua.
LIMITATION SET
(Continued from Lago Ona)
city of Salem was to purchase the
site at $76,000 and contribute $27,
500 more toward the buildings, leav
ing the state's ahare of the cost at
385.000. Senator Charles L. MoNarr
telegraphed Washington last nlht to
rush consideration of this proposal.
Immediately upon definite word of
the federal government's action on
the latter application, It was indi
cated the special session of the legis
lature would be called. Current spec
ulation placed the date September 30
or soon after. The two houses will
convene In the state armory and a
portion of the Marlon hotel.
The legislature, by that time,
should have plans for the building
structure end details provided for the
acquisition of more land for the cap
ltol. Selection of sites has been ma
terially simplified by the attorney
(eneral's opinion today. The legis
lature, In the final analysis, will de
termine all phases of the program.
Salem Selected In ISM.
Salem was selected as the seat of
government by the voters June 8,
18M. giving the present capital city a
majority of 70 votes. The records
disclosed that Salem received 6108
votes, Portland 3864, Eugene city 1588
and all other places 477.
Referring to the question of wheth
er or not the seat of government was
located "In" or "at" Salem, Van Win
kle aald:
"In none of such provisions of the
constitution or statute la It provided
that the seat of government shsll be
located at the place or point so se
lected, but the provision Is thst the
place or point receiving the majority
of all votes cast shsll 'be' the seat of
government."
In discussing as to whst territory
was and Is Included in the designa
tion of "Salem", the attorney general
referred to various controverales over
courthouse locations, from cases In
Michigan, Iowa, Alabama, Kansas.
Missouri snd Florida, holding thst "It
Is natural to Infer that at least the
primary meaning of the terms 'county
eat' and 'seat of government' Is
like."
Cases Cited
From the cited oases Vsn Winkle
declared thst "It Is well established
by the unanimous conscnaua of judi
cial authority that the boundaries of
tha seat of government are those of
the city, town or other place desig
nated at the time and by the act of
locating and designating the seat of
government. and as so fined
such boundaries remain until chang
ed In tha manner provided by law.
and the court house or other public
buildings where the principal func
tions of government are performed
cannot be located outside of such
original sent of government unless
nd until such seat of government Is
removed.
The Klsmsth county court house
battle waa referred to by Van Winkle.
In this Instance, he held, the location
of the county sent, when established
was "at Llnkvllle." and when It was
proposed to sdd more territory and
change the name to Klsmath rails,
the court held thst since "at Llnk
vllle" under such clrcumatancea was
qulvslent to "near or In proximity
to thst place."

At the same time, he said, con
sideration would be given to the
permanent public works projects. He
announced that Secretary Ickes has
been taxed to submit a list of pro
jects of this nature and he laid
down four rules for their approval.
ineae are: The contracts must be
let on or before December 15; the
projects must be completed In
year: they must be In an area where
there are sufficient relief persons to
provide the employment;, and they
must abide by the requirement of
average pay of $850 per man for the
job.
To Approve Blr Sum.
Thua declaring for speed and fori
Immediate temporary work. Mr.
Roosevelt said he expected before
departing on his trip to the Pacific
coast that he would approve direct
grants to states and municipalities
totollng $200,000,000.
This Is to be matched on a basis
of SB per cent by the communities,
making a total of about $425,000,000
for local projects.
In addition, he said, the public
works administration la under orders
to ascertain Immediately what pro
jects already authorized are not being
pushed. These are to be cancelled
and the funds are to be used else
where. Thl Is expected to provide
an additional $320,000,000.'
All in all, it looked like the presi
dent In his work speed orders gave
the edge o Harry Hopkins with a
chance to Secretary Ickes to get hla
program In line by the December 16
deadline.
Upon his return from the western
trip. Mr. Roosevelt aald he would
re-check the whole program. Mean
while, definite allocations are on
a six weeka' basis only.
Irk en, Hopkins Friendly.
Ickes snd Hopkina left here late
last night together for Washington,
on friendly terms, but apparently
with a six weeka' period to prove
their cases.
For rural rehabilitation and nous-
lng, the president stated he expect-;
ed corporate entitles to be formed j
to provide for repayment to the
government of the homes to be built
by the government,
Money la to be provided, he ex
pects, to 100,000 families actually
on farma for purchase of necessary
Implements and for those farmers
suffering from effects of the drought.
There also is to be an effort, he
said, to establish small industries In
the farm communities to provide
work during the slack season.
He la asking Jesse Jones, chair
man of the . reconstruction finance
corporation, and Morris L. Cooke,
director of rural electrification, to
seek to carry on this undertaking
very largely by government loans,
rather than by direct grants under
the four billion works fund.
Plans Permanent CCC.
The president also announced a
policy to establish permanently the
civilian conservation corps, but on
of 300,000 men. There are now about
600,000 men In the CCC to meet
this present requirement ha author
ized In additional allowance of $75,-
000 .000.
Looking to an end of emergency
work, but a continuation of rural
and urban rehabilitation, Mr. Roose
velt spoke of seeking legislation to
provide revolving funds for housing
whereby public construction would
be paid for by returns of the bene
ficiaries to the revolving funds.
He explained that $200,000,000 haa
been segregated for urban housing
but declared th.:. work would be
confined to projects under way or
which can be started by February.
Two of these projects costing
$7,400,000 are In progress now. For
13 others the land has been aoqulred
and they will be started within the
next six days. Involving $26,500,000.
Preliminary work has been substan
tially completed, he said, for 21
other urban housing project total
ing $51,000,000. .Another $lfi,000.oou
Is set aside for projects, which can
be started by February. This means
a cut of $100,000,000 in the original
allotment for public works adminis
tration for projects which can be be
gun by December 15.
