Measures in Oregon Legislature
Salem (U.R) A measure to
put child molesters under psy
chiatric care and indeterminate
sentence has been introduced in
the Senate by Sen. John C. F.
Merrifield (R-Portland).
Sen. Merrifield said "the ef
fect of this bill is to permit the
court to replace the sentences
for sex crimes now prescribed
by law with an indeterminate
term sentence, imposed at the
discretion of the court, after a
psychiatric examination and
hearing."
The measure relates to of
fenses against children under 16
years of age.
Merrifield said: "For years we

have been seeking a means by
which we could cope with those
individuals convicted of crimes
against children. Many respons
ible individuals and organiza
tions have tried to write a sex
deviate bill, but because of the
many problems involved no one
has as yet been successful in ac
complishing it.
"My bill is not a sex deviate
bill as such and should not be
confused with the type of legis
lation sought to be passed in the
1953 session.
"This bill deals solely with the
problem of child molestation and
I believe it can be the answer to
that one phase of sex deviation."
Merrifield said the bill is pat
terned after similar legislation
passed by New York state.
Salem (U.R) The House
Taxation committee has given
its approval to a bill adopting a
corporation income tax law in
Oregon with the tax structure as
the corporation excise tax.
The bill represents a new con
cept of corporation taxes in the
state and is designed to reach
corporations now exempt, ac
cording to a U. S. Supreme Court
ruling, from paying the state ex
cise tax.
A favorable recommendation
was also placed on a bill that
would end the exemption from
the corporate excise tax now en
joyed by real estate companies
and utilities. Both are integral
parts of the committee's revenue
tax program.
Ways and Means Committee
Rep. Pat Dooley of Portland
said he thought the committee
conflicted with a provision of
the constitution which provides
that each house shall determine
its own rules of proceedings.
The committee is made up of
both House and Senate members.
Salem (U.R) Rep. Loran
Stewart (R-Cottage Grove) chair
man of the House Tax Commit
tee said a hearing has been
scheduled next Wednesday on a
measure to place a three-cent
per pack tax on cigarettes. The
tax is a major item in the comT
mittee's tax package.

Salem (U.R) The House has
passed and sent to the governor
a Senate-approved measure un
der which minor erasures on a
bid submitted to the state gov
ernment would not nullify the
entire bid.
The State Department of Fi
nance asked for the measure be
cause the state was losing thous
ands of dollars since it could not
accept low bids which had minor
erasures. Under the bill, there
must be a material alteration
before a bid is rejected.

Negro Navy Man Finds
Home in Portland
Portland (U.R) A young
Negro Navy petty officer's
search for a home for his family
in Portland has ended.
Steward 3-C George J. Hunt
er, stationed at the Astoria Navy
Base, said Saturday he has pur
chased a house at 8935 S. E.
Ellis street for his Caucasian
wife and their two small child
ren. Thus ends the Hunter's search
for a home which met with a
series of rebuffs from real
estate agents and residents of
areas in which the family tried
to buy a house. The Hunters
were turned down on several
buys because real estate agents
said the homes were in white
neighborhoods where Negroes
were not wanted.
