PAGE NINE 1 RELIEF PROBLEM HARDEST NUT FOR NEW LEGISLATURE Raising of Ten Million Would Be Solved if Voters Would Go for Sales Tax Labor Bills Also Loom By PU'I. W. HARVEY. Jr. 8ALEM. Nov. 18. (API Oregon's OTM-whelminflly Republican legisla ture, the first to meet tn the beau tiful chambers of The new capltol. ,wlll begin In less than two months M tackle the hardest problems faced by anr legislature in many year. The toughest nut to crack will be raining of about 10.000,000 to fi nance relief during the 1939-40 biennlum. Maybe a fourth could be rained by restoring the property tax, but where to find the rout Is a mystery. Sales Tax Taboo If the legislature slapped on a ales tax. voters probably would re fer It to the 1940 election. In the meantime, the state's unfortunates would be without adequate aid. Sev eral times the voters have defeated the sales tax, and they showed In the election of 10 days ago that the transactions, tax didn't appeal to them. Some money could be raised by Increasing the state Income tax and bv lowering the exemptions. But voters might refer this, too. In fact, voters might refer any tax measure passed by the legislature. What makes the relief problem m acute 1a that many counties, notftbly multnomah, can't finance their share of the relief costs, and are asking the legislature to help thern out. Legislators can't see how they can give any money to counties If there Isn't enough for the state. Ithor llllls Loom Counties feel, however, that the legislature hasn't done right by them, and they want a cut from liquor revenues, most of which goes to pay for the state's share of the relief burden. The passage of the bill to regu late picketing and boycotting likely will create a ticklish situation for the lawmakers, since they expect labor groups, which fought the bill tooth and nail on grounds it would dotroy labor, will seek to amend or repeal the bill. Repeal of the bill would be unlikely, since the legis lators probably wouldn't dare to overrule the voters. If the bill is amended, which some of the solons say Is also a remote possibility, the amendments might be referred to the voters In 1040, so that the bill, as passed last week would stay on the books. t'nlont to Fight But union labor, which already i has aald It would seek to have the bill declared unconstitutional, la ex pected to conduct a atrenueui cam paign to convert the legislature Into I Us way of thinking. The legislature also must find ad ditional money to meet increased budgets of state Institutions, where expenses hava been increased because of placing employes on a 4-hour week. State departments also will seek more money. Counties and cities have served notice that they will continue their long fight for larger sharea of high way and liquor revenue. If they win, the legislature must find new revenue to replace the state's share. Labor will seek minor amendments to the unemployment compensation law, and there also will be a move ment, sponsored by the state bar association, to retire supreme court and circuit court Judges with pay when they reach the ages of 70 and 65, respectively. May Name Wharton If Governor Martin appoints the new state treasurer to succeed Sen ator-elect Rufus C. Holman, It looks like Wallace S. Wharton, the gov ernor's faithful secretary, might get the Job. Before the appointment la made. It Is probable that the governor. Holman and Qovernor-elcct Charles A. Sprague will go into a huddle to find a man agreeable to each of them. Wharton, who also serves as budget director, is acceptable to both the governor and Holman. and he' has been on good terms with Sprague As treasurer, he would cooperate with Sprague and Secretary of State Earl Snell, the other two members of the new board of control. Whar ton. like the governor, la a Demo crat. Wharton won't talk about the pro posed Job, but It is reported that If he could get a good Job out of politics, he probably would take It rather than become state treasurer, Many Martin Democrats say frank ly that Wharton should get the Job In exchange for the support they threw to Sprague. Sprague, too, rec ognizes the value of the support he received from the governor's ' tent,' the governor-elect having acknowl edged this since he was elected. Snell IfOob Ahead The avalanche of votes that re elected Secretary of S'ate Earl Snell by more than a 4 to 1 margin al ready has started his political man agers to talking of his running for a major office in four years. They hear rumors that this Is Senator Charles L. McNary's last term, and they would like to have Snell succeed him In 1942. They also would like to see him run for con gress from the second (eastern Ore gon) district against Rep. Walter Pierce, the only Democrat In Ore gon's congressional delegation in the new congress. , fn official returns from most of the counties. Snell has carried every precinct, something which election officials say has never happened be fore to any candidate.

Joint author of the column "Washington Merry-Go-Round." pre dicted in an Oregon State college address the resignation of Attorney General Cummlngs was the presi dent's first move in a general cab inet "house cleaning."

WASHINGTON. Nov. 18 AP -The public works administration gave atOO.000 to the national re-, sources committee today for a study j of Pacific northwest land and mlgra- I tion problems aggravated the past few years by the Influx of thousands of farm families from mldwestern drought aroas. The survey, officials said, would bo made "to assure normal and emergency public expenditures in the northwestern states would fur nish the most desirable benefit and permanently valuable improvements." The work, they aald, would cover most of Washington, Oregon, Idaho. Montana and Utah. Value Seen Various federal agencies have, un der existing legislation, the means to carry out programs directly bear ing on the regional handling of the Interlocked migration, land recliima tlon and settlement problems In the Pacific northwest region. Thus, officials aald, the survey should prjve of value In coordinat ing their programs and lead to the development of a "genera"! plan fit ting the basic needs of the region." The PWA also set aside 25.000 for use by the public land office In sur veying and classifying millions of acres of former grant lands in west ern Oregon returned to the govern ment after tho old Oregon and CaJ- ifornla Railroad company and the Coos Bay Wagon Road company had violated grant terms. To Aid Knad lliillriing Part of the $25,000 will be used In construction of roads, trails and tel ephone lines. Primarily, however, the money will be used for land classi fication necessary before the govern ment can begin administration of the land under a new conservation act calling for sustained-yield man agement of timber lands, restoration of suitable areas to agriculture, the protection of water sheds, the reg ulation of stream flow, the develop ment of recreational areas, and the leasing of grazing lands to private operations. fiay P, Effects Until SLSZ, n J Wednesday Evening ygfr Turkey p II Nov. 23 Wh.
