PAGE SEVEN JUDGE DAY GIVES Representatives From Land Grant Counties Gather in Roseburg for Review of New Government Policy ROSEBURO. Ore.. Aug. 38. (API Repreeentatlvee from Oregon land grant counties today heard a detailed report of the work of special com mittee which went to Washington, D. C to represent the asaoclatlon of 18 counties In connection with the bill setting up a new edmlnlatratlon policy for the lands. The reports were given by County Judge Earl B. Day of Jackson county; ex-County Judge Victor P. Moai of Benton county, and Attorney Guy Cordon of Roseburg, legal advisor to the association, who composed the committee. The bill recently passed by con gress places the revested O. and O. lands under a perpetual timber cut ting plan: provides psyment to the counties of 80 per cent of all reve nues, with 25 per cent to be paid to counties on the delinquency accumu lated since 1833. and 35 per cent to be used for administrative purposes. Stanfleld Act Repealed The new bill repeals the Stanfleld aot. under which counties were au thorized to collect an annual amount equal to taxes which would have been paid under private ownership. The county representatives assem bled in Eoseburg today were told that the committee was successful In securing an amendment to the origi nal form of the bill, providing that timber should be cut, up to the max imum capacity of the forest and market. This was essential. It was pointed out by Judge Day, In order to assure an annual income to me counties. An effort was made to secure a re duction in the proportion of Income going to administration costs, he said, but showing! were made that administration could not be sworn pltshed for less. Chance for More A provision, however, was secured whereby, after the existing delin quency Is paid from the 25 per cent allotted to that purpose, the counties will receive up to 15 per cent addl ttonal If the arnual Income falls to reach the 80 per cent of the annual payment made under the Stanfleld act. The bill provides that after the delinquency of county claims Is re tired, the federal government shall retain the 35 per cent, or such share not paid to the counties to bring payments up to the 80 per cent of former Income, to be applied to the deficit accumulated by the govern ment in advancing mone under the Stanfleld bill. After the deficit has been retired, the entire 33 per cent will go to the counties. MAIN STATE PROBLEMS PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 28. (API Judge Ralph P.
