PORTLAND, Dec. 14. (AP) Dis
trict Attorney James R. Bain of
Multnomah county, one of the four
defendants named In civil actions
by the American and State Peder
nttons of Labor and the Congress for
Industrial Organization, announced
today he would confer with the
city's legal staff to organize a de
fense for the anti-plcketing meas
ure. The city was made a party in the
ult when both the AFL and CIO
groups sought to restrain Chief of
. Police Harry Nlles, along with Bain.
Sheriff Martin T. Pratt and Attor
k ney-General I. H. Van Wlndle from
enforcing the bill, approved by the
voters on November 8.
The CIO filed Identical action a
few moments after the AFL.
Bain said no complaints had been
made to his office against the law
and no Investigations undertaken.
The labor organizations alleged the
law conflicted with state and fed
eral constitutions because It denied
freedom of speech, assembly, press
and other rights and did not con
form with the "due process' of law
amendment.
HELD BEST EVER
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 14. (AP)
Edward A. O'Neal, president ol the
American Farm Bureau Federation,
salrt in his annual address today that
the agricultural adjustment act of
1938, "coupled with the soil conserva
tion act, the marketing agreements
act and allied legislation, gives us
the best all-around farm program we
have ever had."
"Severe criticism has ben directed
at the farm program, principally on
the ground that cotton and wheat
prices are distressingly low," O'Neal
said.
"Such criticism Is unfair, because
everybody knows that the law was
passed too late for wheat growers to
comply on their 1938 crop, and every
body knows too that the cotton sur
pVis that holds the price down was
not produced In 1938 It was pro
duced In 1937, when there was no
control program in force."

PORTLAND, Dec. 14. (AP)

augh delayed deportation action

Portland Chinese, today pending In

gration and Justice department offi
cials to stay deportation.

DIES EXPECTS FIGHT
TO STOP COMMITTEE
W ASHING TON , Dec. 14. ( AP)
Rep. Dies (D.-Tex.) predicted today
the administration would exert "Its
full pressure" to prevent the house
committee on un-American activi
ties from receiving authority to con
tinue its work next year.
"Every effort Is going to be made
not only to block our committee but
to get another and new one for
whitewashing purposes," Dies said.
"A lot of people In the administra
tion would like to have a partisan
committee which wouldn't go into
subversive activities very deeply."
President Roosevelt and Secretary
Ickes frequently have been critical
of the committee and some of the
testimony It has heard. The commit
tee and Its $25,000 appropriation will
expire January 3, the day before the
new congress convenes. Dies said he
would Introduce legislation the first
dby to recreate the committee.
'Tra going to tell the members If
they vote for the bill I want them to
understand they will be going on
record Indirectly in favor of a 6150.
000 appropriation for our commit
tee." Dies said.
"I don't think there will be more
than 40 votes against continuing the
committee if there Is a record vote '

Klamath Falls' combined city and
county tax rate will be up 6.1 ml! Is
to a total of 77.6 mills next year,
while all other municipalities within
the county but one will show a de
crease. Assessor Charles Mack an-
nounced today.
The advance here, which will pro- '
duce an added Income of about 943.- I
000, is largely due to special levies 1
and bonds voted a year ago. Mack
said.
Among the cities anticipating a tax i
decline, Chlloquln will enjoy the
most substantial reduction. Success
ful operation of a municipal beer
store there has cut the mill age for
local purposes from 37.8 to 39.0.
The basic county and state rate,
exclusive of school levies, is 33.5
mills, as compared to 33.7 last year.
The amount to be raised la 744,

ON STREET CARS
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Retired,
elderly Frank P. Gorman travels a
distance equal to once around the
world every eights months yet never
leaves Salt Lake City. Total cost of
the "voyage" Is $41.66.
The "world traveler" sees the same
scenery all the time because his trips
are made around Utah's capital In
street cars and busses. He rides aim
ply because he enjoys It and because
the cost is so low.
Gorman's transportation costs $1.35
a week the price of a weekly ticket.
Often, he says, he makes several trips
In a single day over the same route.
When the Salt Lane City trips get
monotonous, he goes to Los Angeles
and rides the street cars and misses
there.
Gorman, so familiar to street car
operators by now that they call him
"Frank." believes he's the world's
"number one street car passenger.'
