(p) -1 The future . of the old age pensions In Oregon was represented by ttw state relief committee today as resting largely with the voters. They will express themselves January 31 on a sales tax whose entire proceeds would go to old age assistance, discussions by the state relief committee here to day revealed. The sales tax revenue would pro vide the state's half of the pension funds, while the federal congress au thorized the federal government to iay half of the pensions up to $30 a month. Expect Federal Provision. The federal appropriation for the pensions was blocked by Senator Hucy Long's filibuster at the lost congress, but probably will be made early In the next congress, which convenes In January. E. R. Bryson, Eugene member of the state relief committee, empha sised that the pension plan which he preferred to call old-age assistance plan does not call for a straight 933 a month pension to all over 63 years of age. The aid Is to be "granted to each Individual according to need," Bry son said. "Many persons may be entitled to 130 a month, but for some with a home and garden $30 a month Is all out of reason, according to the pro visions of the state and federal so cial security legislation. Aid Based on Xecd, "The enactments provide that all pension assistance be based on ac tual need." Committeeman Wilfred Shuholm of Portland said he felt all over 69 years of age should have $30 a month pen sion, whether they need It or not. ; However, he admitted that such would not be legally possible under provl-; slons of the present enactments. Persons with property would be eligible to receive assistance, but only on condition that they pledge their property to repay the state and fed era I government for funds received, Should the sales tax fall, old cge pensions would be In a quandary which probably would be taken to courts, committee members said There would be no state funds for pensions, and the federal government will not contribute without state matching. Expect Limited County Aid. At present the counties are naylng pensions to persons of 70 years and older, who have long established resi dence In the state. However, the county courts probably won't budget much for pensions for 1836, It was pointed out. Should voters reject the pension program, the state relief committee might be forced to care for the aged on the same basis that other lndi gents are given aid. The federal government also auth ortzed assistance for Indigent blind, but the appropriation was held up by Senator Long's filibuster. The state must help. The state relief committee, and its administrator, will handle direct re lief as before, usia-? state liquor prof Its and county donations to supple ment expected federal funds. The Works Progress Administration will handle the work relief program.

McCoIloch, public utilities commis sioner, today rejected Items totaling 12.100 Included In the 1935 budget ot the Northwestern Electric com pany, Portland Gas & Coke company and racinc power and Light com pany. McCoIloch held trie Items should be charged against the surplus to be paid by stockholders, and not against operating expenses. The commissioner also disallowed salaries ai $8400 paid by each ot the companies to Ouy W. Talbot, ex presldent, on the grounds that such salaries were retirement pensions. Budget items rejected, exclusive of Talbot's salaries, Included pro posed donations to charitable or ganizations, national security owners association and the United States chamber of commerce. McCoIloch held that Talbot per formed no executive duties with re gard to the active operation of the companies and his services therefore did not contribute to the efficiency of the service rendered to customers. While Talbot's salary was per fectly proper corporate expenditure it should not be added on the monthly gas and light bills, but should be paid by the. stockholders," McCollocht declared. Regarding the rejection of chari table donations the commissioner said : 'The theory upon which chari table donations are denied as charges to operating expense Is that the customer of the companies should oe permitted to choose his own charities and not be required to contribute through his electric light or gss company to some charity not selected by the customer."
