RELIEF JWBLEM
Should Be Cared for by
Counties and Cities, Not
State and National Gov
ernment, Martin's View
SALEM, Ore., Jan. IB. UP)
Charles H. Martin, Oregon's New Deal
governor, Bald yesterday he aftreed
with ex -President Herbert Hoover
that relief 1a a problem for counties
and cities, not state and national
government, to administer.
He instructed Elmer H. Ooudy, ad
ministrator for the atate relief com
mittee, to fto to Roeeburg and close
the Roosevelt transient camp there
Immediately, over the protests of
American Leclon and Veteran of
Foreign Wars.
"I may be referred to as ft 'Hoover
Democrat'," the governor said, "but I
agree with the ex-prealdent that re
lief Is a local problem. County courts
can keep ft closer check on people n
relief and weed out the chielers.
Martin disagreed with Ooudy In
contending that $10 ft month Is
enough to support ft person on relief.
He urged that persons be removed
Immediately from relief rolls when
they refuse work or use relief funds
to buy liquor.
"Any one who has & liquor license
has no place on relief," Martin told
Ooudy,
"When people lose their pride, a
nation goes to pieces," the governor
added, declaring that the federal
government never again should ap
propriate 94,880.000,000 for relief.
The governor questioned the name
"transient camp", asserting: "tramp
oamps would be a better name. Those
men ahould.be kept moving out of
our state the same as criminals
State money cannot be used to
maintain the Rosoburg transient
camp, Ooudy said, and the federal
government has shut off funds for
this type of relief, necessitating clos
ing the shelter.

Dr. Philip A. Parsons of the state
planning board and the University
of Oregon discussed pollution of
rivers and their tributaries.
Industry Criticized
"Whenever we have asked Industry
to eliminate river pollution they
have replied that it would be timo
enough when the cities made the first
move to this end," Dr. Parsons said.,
"The cities are now eliminating pol
lution and it is time we compelled
factories to take similar action."
The delegates showed exceptional

various cities for the collection of
back taxes and assessments and Hert

Mr. Orey explained that property

those in arrears for ten or twelve
years: and those Mho got behind six

The oldest unpaid asseesments were

an effort Is mnde for a personal con

all surviving accounts, was a

that Is, of the whites.

he a bad Indian but he was a crafty
Indian as well. In those hectic earl

much attention to dumb Indians, for
a dumb Indian was apt to be soon a
dead Indian, - Dumb Indians could
be put on a spot without a great deal
of difficulty If the situation seemed
to call for such tactics.
But a crafty old rascal like Paulina
was different. Every time they got
him out on a limb and prepared to

true, Paulina certainly got In the

(Of course there are always two
sides to every controversy. ' Paulina,
one must remember, was an Indian,
and the white men were taking the
Indian's country away from him. If
somebody else should come In now
and start to take this country away
from US, the chances axe we would
get mean and ornery about it. People
with any spunk at all always have
been that way about such things,
and probably always will be.)

scheming to do It, but they finally
