Two Ballot Measures To Have
Affect on Oregon Institutions
By DICK HUMPHREY
UPI Correspondent
Salem CPD Two measures
Meeting use of Oregon in
titutiong should be studied
ogether before voting on
hem Nov. 4.
"Yes, sir!
United Air
has radar to give,
you smoother flying,
more on-time arrivals"
United is the only coosf-f o-coasf airline
with radar on every plane in its fleet. This
same extra care also typifies United's deli
cious meals, thoughtful people, and much
more. Yet you pay only the regular fare!

Proposition No. 8 would
permit the state Legislature
to alter, reduce, enlarge and
terminate use of any state in

operation.

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.

But their Republican op
