UVf BETTER Proposition No. 8 would permit the state Legislature to alter, reduce, enlarge and terminate use of any state in stitution outside Marion coun ty anytime after 10 years of operation. Every Lines plane f 'j VRAPS YOU 'ROUND TH CALIFORNIA A Western Company Proposition No. 12, more limited in scope, would per mit the State Board of Con trol to discontinue using the Eastern Oregon Tuberculosis hospital at The Dalles or the University TB hospital in Portland or both and turn them to some other institu tional use. The state constitution now provides that institutions must be built in Marion coun ty unless the people vote to place them elsewhere. If the institution is built outside the county, the people must vote again to terminate them or change their use. These measures, while not changing the Marion county building requirement, would permit more efficient use of the institutions outside the county. Declint in TB Both measures are at least partly ! the result of recent scientific advances against tuberculosis which have caused the population of Ore gon's three TB hospitals to de cline steadily for four years. Proposition No. 8 would give the power to make changes to the Legislature and proposition No. 12 would give more limited power over TB institutions to the Board of Control, although some argue the power should be in the hands of the Legislature exclusively. Proposition No. 5 would make it possible in urban re development or renewal areas to use any increase in prop erty taxes resulting from the renewal to apply to the costs of the renewal project itself. Proponents of the plan ar gue that redevelopment ' in creases property values and hence tax returns, and that the increase should be used to pay off the city or county which supplied one-third of the funds for the project.. The federal government supplies the rest. Proposition No. 6 would change the constitution to allow counties to issue bonds for purposes such as building a new court house. Counties Limited The constitution now limits a county from issuing more than $5,000 in bonds except to suppress insurrection, repel invasion or maintain roads. If the measure passes, the Legislature will decide for what purposes the bonds may be used. Only one initiative measure is on the ballot this year. It is proposition No. 13 which would amend the constitution to permit employees or mem bers of a school board or the Board of Higher Education to serve in the state Legislature. At present a teacher may serve if he takes a leave of absence. But to teach again, he must resign so that he can not serve on interim commit tees. This results from the fact that as a teacher he is a mem ber of the administrative branch of state government. As a legislator he is a mem- ORIGON POWIR COMPANY aimed and operated by Western People RESCUED Two of the miners who were rescued from the big cave-in of a coal mine at Springhill, Nova Scotia, stand in the dressing room.

Higher Farm Prices Seen as Help To Republicans in Midwest Chicago - (UPD - Farm belt Democrats are banking on an off-year Democratic tide and on the coolness of farmers to ward Ezra Taft Benson to help them gain new ground Nov. 4 in Republican strong holds 'of the Midwest. But their Republican op ponents are staking their hopes for a GOP comeback in the election on good crops and high farm prices in the corn, wheat and livestock country. The farm vote apparent ly depends on whether pros perity has made farmers for get their ' antipathy toward President Eisenhower's Agri culture secretary. Only a year ago, he was dodging rotten eggs in the Midwest. Only last February, he was fighting against a resign-or-be-fired campaign by members of his own party in Congress.- A United Press Internation al survey of election prospects in 11 Midwestern states indi cates that the Democrats will hold most of the ground they captured in recent years and perhaps score substantial new gains. Demo Chance Good The picture: Senate: With five Republi can and two Democratic seats at stake, Democrats are given a good chance to whittle down the GOP edge. In recession hurt Michigan Lt. Gov.

Vance Hartke of Evansville, Ind., is ber of the legislative branch. The constitution states 'that a person cannot work for two branches of state government.

Two years ago the 11 states elected 68 Republicans and 40 Demo crats.
