SCHOOL BUDGET IS UP IN HOUSE FOR Rep. Bengston Phones Re quest for Views of Inter ested Persons in County. Salem, Ore., March 2 (U.R) An attempted reconsideration of the vote by which the county choot budget board bill (HB-80)' was defeated, was scheduled in the Oregon House of Represen tatives today. Rep. Giles French, Moro, chairman of the House taxation and Revenue Committee, which introduced the bill, said he will ask for reconsideration. The bill was defeated, but not killed, yesterday when the "ayes" lack ed only two of the necessary constitutional majority. (Editor's note: Expecting re consideration of the budget board bill. Rep. Hilding Bengt on of Jackson county telephoned a request from Salem for views ef school boards and others in terested. The bill arants drastic budget and boundary making powers. Copies of the bill HB 80, are available at the county chool superintendent's office.) The House Resolutions Com mittee will consider a new me morial by Reps.

The Senate Alcoholic Traffic Committee introduced a bill (SB-285) to prevent liquor li censees temporarily under nui sance abatement proceedings from moving their property to a new location except - under bond; The committee cited that putting "teeth" into the abate ment law will stop proprietors from moving to a nearby loca tion and reopening for business. Would Define Duties The Senate yesterday passed three bills to define duties of the State Agriculture Department and the State Board of Health, particularly as regards food and farm production. A Senate bill (SB-29), result ing from an interim committee study, to create a new depart men of Public Health instead of the present board, remained in committee. The other bills (SB's 128, 177 and 242) would define the legis lative policy of each of the two departments and their jurisdic tion; give the Public Health Board control of eating and drinking places, and give the Agriculture Department control of the milk industry while tak ing away its powers over eating places. Sharp Objection A bill to create Small Claims Departments in Justice Courts (HB-174) passed the House after sharp and unexpected opposition arose. Reps. Carl Francis and Max Landon objected to the bill on several grounds. It would create the opportun ity for small-time racketeers to flourish, they said. They main tained that every defendant was entitled to his day in a real court, and that the informal Small Claims Courts would be against . the "dignity" of the bench. A bill to place a tax on domes tic as well as foreign Insurance companies passed the House (HB-390). It would also lower the premium tax from 24 to 2 per cent. Rep. R. C. Frisbie said that it was in conformity with federal regulations, and the new law may avert the loss . of as much as $1,250,000 in revenues yearly. Another Insurance bill (HB- 391) also passed. It provides for the adoption of new mortality tables. Livestock Portland, Or March 2 (UP) Livestock Cattle, 25; calves, none. Steady on kinds available. Supply mostly canner-cutter cows at $7 9.50.

During the discussion the stu dents advocated that political and economic equality be grant ed to all peoples as their human right and it was proposed that study of languages be more widespread as a means of pro moting international relations. Developing this point the stu dents said that unless persons know the language of another country they are handicapped in getting first-hand information that interpreters and translators "color and perhaps influence understanding. The - concrete suggestion was made that for eign language study' should be gin in the grade schools. The Dumbarton Oaks plan was discussed and the opinion given that whatever the plan might be, it would always be completely dependent upon the good-will and perfect perform ance of those behind it. The students appeared to real ize that knowing of a solution to a problem does not necessarily provide the opportunity to do something about the problem. One proposal was that the legal status be granted at the age of 18 and was backed by the arguments that youth is being drafted at the age of 18, asked to assume very serious responsibili ties and that income tax Is re quired for money earned. In answer to a question from the floor "can youth and the older generation work harmoni ously together toward a common goal the reply was "yes. through such media as panel discussions, conferences or sim ilar occasions where the two may meet and talk things over." Mrs. Justin B. Smith was in charge of the panel discussion and participating were the Misses June Williams, Faye Mitchell, Elaine Walker, Maxine McKinney and Gerald Pence and Ferney McKibben.
