.' tlons as FOR Accused of

Washington, Dec. 12 (U.R
The house passed, 178 to 107.
end sent to the senate a bill to
abolish the Jackson Hole na
tional monument In Yyomlng
and to restore the area In ques
tion as a part of the Teton na
tlonal forest.
v Proponents of the bill argued
that President Roosevelt "by
passed" congress when he cre
ated the 221.610-acre monument
In March. 1943. by presidential
proclamation after congress had
relunca to create a national pw
In the same area.
.. They further maintained that
creation of the monument re
moved a sufficient amount of
property from the Teton county
tax roll to practically liquidate
the state.
i The monument Included 82,-
117 acres of land reportedly
Durchased by John D. Rocke
feller. Jr.. at a cost of aooroxl
mately $1,500,000 and tendered
by him as a gift to the federal
government.
' Rep. James W. Mott, R., Ore.
described creation of the manu
ment as "a very great Injustice"
and declared it was "one of the
very worst examples of execu
tlve use of legislative authority."
Similar objections were raised
by Rep. Harris Ellsworth, K,
Ore., who called upon the house
to pass the bill "and let our
voices be heard." He maintained
President Roosevelt's act was an
"abuse" of the antiquities act.

Coos Bay (Formerly Marsh'
field), Ore., Dec. 12 (U.R) Is
the name of the town going to
be Coos Bay or Marshfield?
It was only a month ago that
the voters of Marshfield approv
ed a change In name to Coos
Bay.
Now the city council has
scheduled an election December
28 to determine if the name
should be changed back to
Marshfield.
Here's the situation (we'll try
to be brief):
The town was founded as
Marshfield, probably because of
the marshy tldelsnds surround
ing Coos Bay on the Oregon
coast. Earlier this year, it was
proposed that Marshfield and
its close neighbor, North Bend,
merge and assume the new joint
nam of Coos Bay. The proposi
tion was defeated, chiefly be
cause North Bend wanted no
part of the amalgamation.
Citizens of Marshfield then
decided to change over to Coos
Bay and did so at the Novem
ber 7 election.
Attorney Claude Giles pre
sented 232 names on petitions
asking the city council to au
thorize another election on
grounds the recent change was
confusing and they wanted
Marshfield back again.
The charter and manager form
of government adopted as part
of the change in November will
not be affected in the new spec
ial election.
Salem. Ore.. -Dee. 12 (U.R)
The validity of this Oregon Prop
erty law was not affected by the
recent decision of the U, S. su
preme court, which held that
husband and wife may not use
the provisions of the Oklahoma
Community Property law to les
sen their income taxes, Attor
ney uenerai George Neuner ad
vised Gov. Earl Snell in a writ
ten opinion today. But the per
missable application of the law
was limited, the opinion said.
While the validity of the Ok
lahoma law was not questioned,
the use of It in reporting In
comes for tax purposes was, and
that application can be made to
the Oregon law, tht. governor
advised. . '
Recommendation! for clause
protecting persons who have al
ready made use of tht law, if it
were to be repealed, wert made
in the opinion.
' "In any event," the attorney
general saia, it is aeemea ad
visable not to repeal the law,
dui to auora a means Dy wnicn
Dersons who elected to avail
themselves of it may revoke
such action. That purpose can
beK' accomplished by amendment
of the present act or by a sep
arate act."

The Blue Network was threat
ened with a series of wildcat
strikes today by James C. Petrll
lo and his American Federation
of Musicians, according to Net
work President Mark Woods.
Woods said a dispute arose
after the national labor relations
board reversed an agreement the
network signed giving Petrillo's
AFI control of the record
changers.
The NLRB ruled that the Na
tional Association of Broadcast
Engineers and Technicians had
jurisdiction over employment of
such workers, except in the Chi
cago area where the "pancake
turners" have been in Petrillo's
union for some years.
Woods said his company -was
"perfectly willing" to accept the
decision of the NLRB.
However, he said, Petrillo has
warned that if the network does
not keep the agreement with the
AFM he will order a series of
wildcat strikes by withdrawing
musicians "from our programs
at sporadic Intervals."
