estate in Southbury, Conn.

hospitalized for several weeks.
TOO MUCH MOON SHINE
Choshi, Japan (U.R) A
fire tower lookout spotted a red
glow in the sky last night and
shouted to the station below, "a
fire, to the east:" Three engines,
sirens screaming, tore out to
ward the red glow. They kept
after it until they reached the
Pacific shore. There was the
moon's weak red glow on the
horizon.

Rep. Duncan Reports on First Two Weeks
Of Legislature; Committees Hard at Work
By ROBERT DUNCAN
State Representative
From Jackson County
Salem, Jan. 26 (By Mail)
The Oregon State Legislature
has been working now for two
ymmvwmmm weeks To
many people it
might seem
that the time
has been wast
ea because of
the delay in
organizing
Senate.
The House
and its mem
bers have ac-
h . L ,,. lu""y u c "
announced almost immediately.
At the present time, some 289
bills have been introduced in the
House (compared to only 95 at
this time last session). Many of
these have already been referred
to House committees, and the
labor of considering the merits
of each bill has commenced. It
is necessary that the committee
consider the objectives to be ac
complished, whether or not a
particular bill will do the job
either with or without amend
ment, and what its overall effect

Ways and Means is a commit
tee made up of both Senators
and Representatives. The House
Chairman is Robert Steward,
Democrat, of Keating. The Sen
ate Chairman is Alfred Corbett.
Democrat, of Portland. Ways
and Means holds the purse
strings of the state, and must
pass on each measure introduced
which appropriates money. One
hundred nine such bills are now
before use. Economical opera
tion of state government is to
be demanded. But additional
services are also demanded, and
some are so essential that we
cannot afford not to spend the
money for them. In this category
are education and proper care
of our mentally ill. There is,
unfortunately, no prospect of
lower taxes. The shape of the
tax and its incidence still re
main to be determined.
Senate Deadlock
There are those who say that
the Senate has wasted two
weeks; others have commented
that many hostilities and pre
judices have been aired and, to
some extent, dissipated, and that
it is far better for the two parties
to have met head-on and had it
out at once than for these enmi
ties to plague the progress of
legislation throughout the ses
sin. Only time will tell whether
or not this latter comment is so.
Certainly it would seem that
men of good will could quickly
settle their differences of opin
ion and get down to the business
of government.
It is an example, perhaps, of
over-zealous political partisan
ship which fails to recognize
that political parties exist only
to furnish good government and
are not an end in themselves.
Personal political ambition also
figured heavily in the dead-lock
as is usually the case in any

political dispute. Both Republic-1
ans and Democrats must accept
their share of whatever blame is
to be assessed; and to both must
be ascribed respect for having
the courage of their convictions.
Most people seem happy with
the ultimate choice of Boyd
Overhulse for Senate President.
All in all, the "show" was a
graphic display of democracy in
action, with all of its defects and
advantages magnified by the spy
glass of public opinion.
Two Measures
Only two matters have come
up so far for final action by
the House. One was House
Memorial 1, directed to the Unit
ed States Congress and concern
ing the termination of the Klam
ath Indian Reservation. This
memorial asked that "stop-gap
legislation" be enacted by Con
gress to defer the termination
and provide for a period of re
habilitation for the tribe and
gradual liquidation of its assets.
The memorial was passed with
no opposition. I might explain
that memorials have no legal
effect. They are merely requests
of statements of opinion.
There was also a resolution
up for "third reading"; i.e., final
action. This particular resolution
provided for an amendment to
the rules of the House to permit
the House to elect a pro tem
speaker in the absence of the
Speaker. This, also, was easily
passed.
Bills In Libraries
Many matters will be taken up
in the weeks to come. Copies of
all bills and the calendars have
been sent by the Jackson County
Delegation to the libraries in
Ashland and Medford, where
they may be consulted by anyone
who is interested. The advice
and comments of all are invited,
as it is only by hearing from
those most affected that we here
in Salem can propery represent
you. Do not hesitate to write or
stop in with your questions or
comments, whether you think
them important or not. They
may have a strong effect on the
ultimate shape of legislation.
It has been estimated that it
costs about $600 for each bill
passed by the Legislature. Bills
should not be introduced unless
there is a real need; but once
that need is established, it is

British Minister
To Fly To Ottowa
Washington (U.R) British
Defense Minister Duncan Sandys
planned today to interrupt mili
tary talks for a flying visit to
Ottawa.
He was scheduled to return
here Friday to continue discus
sions with government officials.
Sandys said Tuesday after an
hour-long meeting with Secre
tary of State John Foster Dulles
that the United States and Brit
ain are in full accord on mili
tary strategy.
He did not go into detail but
his statement apparently means
the United States and Britain
have agreed that the two coun
tries should place increased em
phasis on air-nuclear weapons
as a means of reducing heavy
man-power costs. Britain has
long favored such a shift in em
phasis. SHOES

Elizabeth Taylor's
Divorce Said Near
Mexico City (U.R) Authori
tative sources here predicted to
day screen star Elizabeth Taylor
and her British actor husband,
Michael Wilding, would be grant
ed a mutual consent divorce in
the immediate future by a Mexi
can court.
The same sources said Miss
Taylor's marriage to Mike Todd,
Broadway and Hollywood pro
ducer, would follow within a few j
days after the decree. !
No delay in the divorce pro- j
ceedings was anticipated. Both j
Miss Taylor and Wilding de-1
clared their mutual desire for a j
divorce either personally or i
through lawyers before the court !
at the resort town of Cuerna- i
vaca.
Lending support to the re- j
ports was the arrival in Aca-,
pulco of singer Eddie Fisher and j
his actress fwife, Debbie Rey
nolds. They said they were just
vacationing but indications were
they had come for the Taylor
Todd nuptials.
