WHY?
1EFENSE OHM
IS DEFENDED AS
can ttrjufd from pa.ge one?
Roosevelt's estimate of $8,424,
000.000, House passage yesterday by
252 to 131 of the Gavagan bill
making lynching a federal crime
had been anticipated, but
southern Democrats in the sen
ate announced they were deter
mined to filibuster the message
to death.
Oppose Budget Survey
Although no revenge was in
volved, house Democratic chief
tains simultaneously hung up a
red light against the Harrison
resolution to create a joint con
gressional committee io comb
all budget recommendations, in
cluding those for defense, be
fore any appropriation or tax
measures are passed. The sen
ate adopted this proposal yes
terday without a roll call.
Administration leaders in the
house took the view the survey
might be all right for future
congresses, but the house has
several supply bills ready and
they do not intend to hold them
up for a joint inquiry.
Meanwhile, the house appro
priations committee was report
ed to have voted secretly against
letting any of its subcommittees
exceed the president's spending
recommendations.
Many congressmen saw in
this move an attempt to show
that the separate budget inquiry
proposed by Senator Harrison
(D Miss, would be unneces
sary. The action followed a trip
io the White House by the house
Democratic steering committee.
whose members reported Mr,
Roosevelt told them to stav
within his budget so that the
national debt iirait of $45,000.-
000,000 would not have to be
raised.

Single Tree Will
Yield Lumber For
House and Garage
Bend, Jan. 11, iiFH- A
ciant pine felled in the Des
chutes woods looked "like
the biggest thing in the for
est" to loggers today. They
estimated it would produce
12,000 board feet of lumber.
The tree is believed to
hold more lumber than any
other pine cut in the Brsoks
Scanlon operations.
Medford lumber dealers
figure the Deschutes tree
should produce sufficient
lumber for a fair-siied house
with enough left over for
a garage.
