Breeding experiment carried on by
the state fish and game commlsatxi
during the past five years have prov
ed so successful that In a few years
a new game bird probably will be
thrown open to hunters.
Five Chucker partridges were ob
tained about five years ago and placed

Now there are more than 3,800 of
the Asiatic partridge on state game
farms. The birds seem to do but

thrive so well In the valleys.
The Chucker, a bird generally un
known In the United States, is easily
recognized by Ite brown and white
feathers, distinguishing It from other
breeds of partridge.
The uaual neat contains 13 to 16
eggs. Dr. E. C. Moore, president of

Across From Courthouse
PORTLAND, Nov. 27. (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.

COMMISSION LOPS
LARGE SUMS OFF
UTILITY BUDGET
SALEM, Hot. 97. (AP) Frank C.
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."

Here Is the Ideal Electric Range
This all white WESTINGHOUSE Automatic Eleotric Range is
ideal for the family with average cooking requirements. The
finish, including the cabinet base, is beautiful porcelain enamel.
Food acids cannot harm the special hard cooking surface which
is exactly the right height to conform to modern all-electric
kitchen standards. The straight sides permit building work
. counters flush with the range top should you decide at any time
to remodel your kitchen to modern built-in kitchen standards.
The three spacious utility drawers conserve space and add
much to the convenience of the range. The pilot light on the
switch panel glows brightly when the oven current is on and
signals when the oven reaches the temperature selected.
The famous flavor aone oven is entirely automatic and shuts off
the current when the proper temperature is reached. Four
st- -.dard Quick-cook (open coil) surface unit3 are regular
equipment.
This is the lowest price a range of this quality with cabinet
base has ever been sold. Why not trade in your old fuel range
today. The small down payment puts this range in your kitchen
at once.
