It asked for a writ of mandamus to com pel the two officers to place jur isdiction of the 472 000 acres of controverted O&C lands under the exclusive direction of the in terior secretary. The action is the result of an interdepartmental agr e e m e n t that proceeds from the contro verted lands should be withheld from distribution to the 18 Ore gon land grant counties while the question of the Jurisdiction of the controverted lands was settled. Decided in 1925 The disputed question in the suit is not in controversy at all the complaint alleged, because the Federal Court decided in 1925 that the controverted lands actually were O&C lands. The revenue from O&C sales is divided between the counties and the Department of Interior, with the counties getting 75 per cent and the Department of Interior 25 per cent. The 18 Oregon land grant counties are Clackamas, Benton Columbia, Coos, Curry, Douglas, Jackson, Josephine, Klamath, Lane. Lincoln, Linn, Marion, Multnomah, Polk, Tillamook, Yamhill and Washington.

The $1,292,000,000 bill had strong blpartislan support. Rep. George A. Dondero, Mich., sen ior Republican member of the House Public Works Commit tee, said he would be "surprised If there is such opposition." Aid for States Among other things, the bill would authorize federal aid of $550,000,000 to states for con struction of highways, rural roads, and city streets for the two-year period starting July 1. 1953. The funds would be match ed by the states. Only $500,000,000 a year is currently authorized. Mr. Tru man had recommended that fu ture authorization be cut to $400,000,000 a year. Cost Increase Cited The house Public Works com mittee called for more federal aid because, it said, (1) construc tion costs have Increased, (2) 52, 000,000 motor vehicles were on the roads last year, and (3) high ways are deteriorating faster than the rate of new construc tion.
