FOR STATE HELP
IN UEUOF TAXES
Senator Plans Legislation On
Principle That National
Reservations Should Not
Be Burden On State
ROSEBURG, Ore.. Sept. 1. (APj
Natlonal legislation to establish, a
principle that reservations of natural
resources for national purposes must
not be wholly at the expense of the
states will be Introduced before, the
coming session of congress by U. S.
Senator Charles L. McNary. attorney
Cordon of Roseburg, legal counsel for
Oregon land grant counties, reported
here today. Cordon returned last
night from Salem, where he had a
long Interview with Senator McNary
concerning policies with relation to
O. and C. grant lands, federal acqui
sition of privately owned timber lands
and sustained yield regulations now
pending before congress.
Senawr McNary. Cordon reports,
declared himself firmly for a policy
of federal payments to states and
counties In lieu of tax values of re
sources withdrawn for conservation
purposes.
For Safeguarding .lights
He proposes, according to the at
torney for the land grant counties,
to Introduce bills before congress to
provide federal participation In local
government on a ratio equal to the
tax values of lands or resources ac
quired and withdrawn from taxation.
The senator in the Interview, Cordon
said, declared .himself strongly In fa
vor of a federal conservation policy.
particularly with regard to sustained
timber plelds. but advocates policies
to protect states and counties from
reductions In the tax base.
'Senator McNnry clearly stated his
position with reference to all reserved
natural resources of the United
States as involving the moral duty
on the part of the federal govern
ment to reimburse statqa. In which
such resources are being withheld, by
payments equal to the reasonable
share of the cost of state govern
ment that 8Uoh resources ought to
bear." Cordon said.
Should Adopt Principle
"He declared the time has tome for
a broad government policy recogniz
lng the. principle that reservations
lor national purposes must not oe
wholly at the expense of states where
the reservations are made but the
federal contributions must be made
In lieu of tax values which would
otherwise have existed. .

been Identified with all federal legis
lation which has provided payments
to states of percentages of proceeds
from sales of national reservation
property and has consistently advo
cated such an Increase in those per
centages as may be necessary to
make them equal to tax values which
otherwise would have existed."
Attorney Cordon quoted Senator
McNary's statement with regard to
sustained yield regulations and fed
eral acquisition of privately owned
timber lands as follows:
"I am whole -heartodly In favor of
the sustained -yield principle, which
simply means -that timber shall be
considered as a perpetual crop ana
shall be handled accordingly. A ra
tional sustained yield program will
perpetuate Oregon's greatest single
resource.
For Federal Acquisition
"I believe that federal acquisition
of privately owned timber land, par
ticularly In remote and Inaccessible
areas, Is an essential part of any er
fectlve sustained yield program, but
I am not in favor of any federal
legislation for either of these pur
poses until the tax question involved
has been first determined and put
Into effect by congress.
"The right of the state of Oregon
to have these resources, even though
federally owned, contribute to the
cost of local government. Is In my
opinion the first and paramount
matter for consideration.
. "Department heads in Washington
are working on the problem at this
time and I am keeping in close
touch with their efforts. I expect
to Introduce appropriate bills, in the
comlrg congress to afford this vitally
necessary protection."
"My interview with Senator Mc
Nary," Cordon said, "was at the di
rection of the executive committee
of the land grant counties and was
a direct result of the introduction
of bills ,at the lost session of con
gress providing for a change in man
agement of O. and C. lands and pub
lic acquisition of additional timber
lands without first safeguarding the
local tax rights.
Must Protect Tax Base
"The county courts' represent the
common taxpayers and are determin
ed to protect the tax base of the
state against any encroachment. The
courts and people generally concede
that reasonable regulations for forest
management and perpetuation are
desirable, but point out that this
sustained yield program Is of national
benefit as well as local benefit and
contend that the national benefit
require that the nation bear Its Just
share of local government which
otherwise would be compelled to
carry by Increased taxation the total
cost of a national program."

Plans were carried forward today
for the pear and tomato festival to
be held in Talent on Friday and Sat
urday, October 2 and 3. Committees
under the general chairmanship of
Ray Schumacher are at work In ar
ranging an extensive program for the
two-day celebration which will be held

world's largest pear pie." The pie.

to provide a slice for everyone who
attends the festival, he stated.
To Have Midway.
Another feature wilt be a midway
to be designated as "Wagner Gulch."
The gulch, said Mr. Schumacher, will
provide carnival fun and thrills.
A contest will be held to deter
mine the "world's champion" pear
packer with all the packers of the
valley eligible for the big cash prizes
to be awarded the winners, Mr. Schu
macher said. The program also in

ROCKY POINT, R. I., Sept. 1.
(AP) Col. Frank Knox. Republican
vice -presidential nominee, asserted
today that labor, which "until our
time fought Ita own battles," bene
fited from staying out of party poli
tics. He added, In an address prepared
for a rally and clambake here, that a
government partial to "one form of
labor organization or another" is "un
American." On 22,0p0-Mlle Tour.
Knox came to1 Rhode Island aboard
his special campaign train, which set
out yesterday from Manchester, N. H.,
on a 22,000-mile tour.
The role of government in labor re
lations, Knox said, should be that of
"umpire," seeking to "preserve de
cency and order," and prevent vio
lence. He said In part;
"What Is this administration's pol
icy toward labor? For more than half
a century labor In this country has
feared the encroachment of the fed
era! government In the relationship
between labor and capital. Wisely and
properly, labor has realized, that a
central government's Invasion of this
field is a two-edged sword. But the
present administration has rushed
into this field.
Ml A Took Sides.
"The NRA took sides tn labor rela
tions, apparently on the side of labor.
But actually, the NRA, if it erratic
and blundering career had not been
stopped, would have bound labor in
the chains of governmental coercion.
"What happened to Italian labor
when it helped to establish a govern
mental dictatorship over all economic
life? What happened to German labor
unions after they helped to estabiisn
the present government? What hap
pened to Russian labor when It estab
lished a new system that it thought
would give labor all the product of
enterprise? Every workingman In
America should read tho story of la
bor in Europe."

Draping Goats
WILLIAMS. Sept. 1. (SpU
Persons passing by the White
bridge swimming hole one recent
afternoon were somewhat startled
to meet a strange -look lng trio,
which, upon closer Investigation,
was seen as three goats, attrac
tively gowned In young ladies'
dress. Near the swimming pool,
three girls In bathing suits were
lrefully searching for the clothes
they had so carefully concealed
before entering the water and
manufacturing alibis to present
doubting parents as explanation
for the loss of their apparel.
The goats, in their natural con
dition, had been spied by several
young boys who felt the animals
would be much more attractive if
clad and proceeded to dress them
In the girls garments, the action
being another event in the feud
which rages off and on between
the youthful parties. After being
carefully groomed, the bleating
quadrupeds were loosed on the
road to dazzle the passerby.

FREE PICK-UP AND
DELIVERY SERVICE
Western railroads urge shippers to lake advantage of
this Free door-to-door service on less than carload
freight now available between thousands of stations.
It has saved millions of dollars for shippers. It is a
great convenience, for the railroads take full respon'
sibility from door to door.
Other noteworthy improvements in railroad freight
service include faster schedules.
Railroad passenger service is also being revolution
izod. Western railroads pioneered in reducing fares
to the lowest point in history, with substantial reductions
on round trip tickets. Then they provided air-conditioned
cars with temperature and humidity control. If
you haven't yet traveled in a cool, clean, healthful air
conditioned car do so on your next trip a revelation
in luxury but costs nothing extra.
Travel by train because it is safer, more comfortable,
more economical, more dependable, faster. . . Ask
the railroad agent about travel or shipping to any part
of the world. .
