EARLY ESTIMATES
ONE OF, OREGON'S FINE STORES
$8 Million Sought for State's
County School Units and
. Rural School Districts
Salem, Ore., Jan. 19 U.B
Nearly $8,000,000 was sought lor
county school units and rural
school districts. In Dill sut
mltted the Oregon house of rep
resentatives today, while a bill
providing lor control of milk'
carried diseases was due for In
troduction later today.
The school bill, exceeding pre
viously estimated requests by
nearly $3,000,000, was brought
in by the tax and revenues com
mittee, and Giles French, Moro,
committee chairman, said that
the 27 cents per pupil per day
provision of the measure figures
out at $7,977,269.10 yearly on
the present basis of 29,845,441
pupil attendance days.
Separate Tax Plan
The amount would be raised
by an annual tax outside of the
six per .cent limitation, to be
offset by income taxes where
they are sufficient.
The milk control bill would
provide tor compulsory testing
of all cows at least twice a year
for tuberculosis and bangs
disease, and for Inoculation of
all cows within eight months of
their birth. Persons suffering
from undulant fever, believed to
stem from bangs disease, would
be required to give Information
leading to location of possibly
diseased herds.
Three bills Introduced In the
senate by the labor and Indus
tries committee call for exten
sion of labor rights, including
prevention of discriminating be
tween the sexes in Industry, and
for collective bargaining between
employers and employes, ,
To Study Tithing
The ways and means commit
tee, discussing the proposed
Tithing measure to require most
state departments to pay a per
centage of their gross revenues
to the state general fund, re
ferred the matter to a special
sub-committee for study and
hearings. Opposition to the
measure Is foreseen by several
state departments, particularly
the highway department, which
would be the most heavily hit.
Sen. J. N. Jones voiced an ob
jection to the present activities

SUMMARYSHOWS
Summary of 1044 weather
conditions nrenm-o,! h .v..
weather bureau staff at the air
port snow 1944 to have been
quite normal, with mean tern
perature for the year being 83.8
degrees, exactly normal, and
precipitation but .63 of an inch
under the normal of 16.77
Inches.
Highest temperature of the
year was 103 degrees recorded
on September 5, the records
show, and lowest was 21 de
grees on January 19 of last
year. Nine days the maximum
temperature was 100 degrees or
above, 46 days the thermome
ter rose to 90 degrees or higher
and 84 days the minimum tem
perature was 32 degrees or low
er. Greatest rainfall In any 24
hours was .76 Inches November
2 and 3 and total snowfall was
but .7 Inches. Number of days
with trace or more of snow
was 14 and on six days hall fell.
The report shows that 106
days were clear, 90 were partly
cloudy and 170 were complete
ly cloudy. Seventy-nine days
had light fog and on 43 days
heavy fog was recorded.
Only record breaking Item of
the year was the fact that the
valley had the longest growing
season of record, 203 days from
April 25 to November 14, or
between killing frosts. It Is
pointed out, however, that in-
some instances this means little
since the lack of killing frosts
does not necessarily mean good
growing conditions.
