Law Seen Necessary To Borrow Money For Jobless Fund Salem IF Enactment of a law will, be necessary' to per mit the State Unemployment Compensation Commission to borrow $14 million from the federal government to bolster Oregon's sagging unemploy ment compensation fund, ac cording to Attorney General Robert Y. Thornton.' The opinion was requested by State Treasurer Sig Unan der who questioned his au thority as .custodian of the fund to pay out the , federal monies. Gov. Robert D. Holmes, who' has requested the loan when the unemployment fund fell below its $31,500,000 floor, replied immediately that he still thought! the loan was "sound economy." Friendly Suit Likely The governor said he had asked for the loan after con sulting with, his legal advisor. The governor further sug gested that a "friendly suit" proba Ay would be initiated by an employer to test Thorn ton's opinion. . . ' , , In his .opinion, Thornton stated that the only powers that a state official or agency possesses are those such as are expressly granted by law or necessarily implied from them. ' ' He said there was no such language in the Oregon un employment c o m p e nsation law to enable either the gov ernor or the commission to apply for the loan. Employer Rales Affected Thornton said Michigan, Ohio and Alaska had enacted laws to permit such loans. The opinion left the matter of rates paid by employers into the fund temporarily in doubt. The loan saved -many of them from increases to the maximum 2.8 per cent pay ment. E. Nordyke, assistant attor ney general for the commis sion, said he had not advised the governor in the matter but had told the commission that its request complied with federal law and was constitu tional. Nordyke said he told the commission his opinion would be subject to later ruling by Thornton. 76 State Employees Get Suggestion Pay Salem (IB Sixteen Oregon state 1 employees who , sub mitted suggestions to save the state money have been award ed $700. . Airline Denies Control Charges Denver (W Continental Airlines President Robert Six categorically has denied a charge by California Eastern Aviation, Inc., that Continen tal is controlled illegally by Chase Manhattan Bank of New York City. "This appears to be a move of desperation on the part of a disappointed applicant in the Dallas-West case," Six said in a prepared statement, "obviously designed to con fuse and cloud the issue in the case." Six pointed out California Eastern was not recommended for the routes for which Con tinental had won designation. The West Coast carrier charged in a petition filed with the Civil Aeronautics Board that Continental was in default on an $18 million loan from Chase "with the result that Continental now oper ates only at the sufference of Chase." - Sixvsaid the figures were "completely misleading and the statements were not true." Ticket To Own Son Portland OH Traffic Patrolman John Yadon said Thursday he issued jaywalk ing citations to three- youths Wednesday night. One of them was his 14-year-old son. "I warned my boy many times before about jaywalk ing," Yadon said. "He had it coming to him." FishermanTrades Shirt for Fish Memphis, Tenn. OPI Larry Williams is the type of fisherman who will give the shirt off his back for a mess of fish. The bass at nearby Pick wick Lake were striking, but only on plugs with a fringed rubber skirt or wiggling pork-rind trailer. Williams could find not a single lure of this type in his tackle box. So he cut a thin strip of cloth from his shirtiail, tied it to a plug and offered it to the bass. It was taken. His success continued, but the cloth grew frayed quickly and he had to cut another strip. When he arrived home, Williams was shirtless but he had a box full of bass. Sugar Workers To Lose Medical Care Honolulu API Plantation owners have warned 13,000 striking sugar workers that medical services provided in part by the companies will be discontinued at the end of this month. "The sugar industry com panies will not further subsi dize the sugar strike by con tinuing to provide the strike employees medical care, the International Longshoremens and Warehousemens union was told in a letter. " Maxwell1 invited union leaders to meet with the in dustry to discuss continuing medical, protection for . t h striking workers "on some basis which will not involve expense to the sugar compan ies." The union, which jointly sponsors the medical , plan, said its share of the cost dur ing the 103-day-old strike has been $310,000.
