THE NEWS AND THE HERALD, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON May 4, 1038 PAGE EIGHT WIN DEIS L IN TALK HERE Governor Charles H. Martin declared here laat night that lie baa always stood for the best of conditions for laboring men, and described as misrepresentation and nonsense the attempts being made to picture him as a "Tory" oppressor of people who work. The governor said that bis ef forts had been directed to ending bickering, eliminating destructive elements, and building up mutual understanding and trust among all the people of Oregon. 800 Hear Speech He remarked upon the fact that this district has been free of labor troubles and urged that Klamath laboring men continue to "keep the racketeers out and run their own affairs." Speaking at the Mills school auditorium to a capacity crowd of more than 300, the chief execu tive reviewed his administration and outlined his political philos ophy. He said he had tried to be a governor for "all the people" and said that he had refused to build up a political machine. He said he believed the democratic party should stand for something beside getting all the people it can into public office. Governor Martin stated that when he was elected governor, he presumed that the people wanted him to step out and lead the way. Becomes Target "But I find that when you do that, you Immediately become the target of a lot of people, some on the crackpot order, some with selfish Interests, and some who would like to have the job them selves. The result la that I have been the subject of a lot of mis representation and nonsense." In this connection, Martin re ferred to an articles appearing In an eastern magazine. He said among other things this article Indicated he had ridden Into of fice on Roosevelt's coat-tails, and was now criticizing the president. Martin said he bad not crltlsized the president, but neither Is he a rubber stamp nor Is he afraid to speak his own mind. In an aside, he mentioned his previous remark about hoping Roosevelt would get rid of that "awful secretary of labor." Against Lines The governor then told of a letter he received lrom Postmas ter General Farley after the maga zine article bad appeared, in which Farley told Martin he had been doing a good job. Martin remarked caustically about attempts to picture him aa in league with power interests. He aald he bad not opposed the Ickes power bill as such, but that be did oppose tbe attempt to have the state build transmission lines to Bonneville when the federal government would do It. He said that be vetoed that attempt, and that the people sustained his judg ment by a majority of 50,000 or 60,000. Money Saved The governor then told of tbe record of his appointees as util ities commissioners, Frank Mc Colloch and N. G. Wallace. He said that through their efforts 11,100,715 had been saved con sumers, of tbls amount 855,000 in electrical savings. These rate reductions, he said, will continue. Tbe executive recalled that Mc Collocb's predecessor was "always suing somebody" but that be never won any suits. How the state tax had been re duced and finally eliminated was recounted by the governor, and he also told of reductions in tbe state's bonded debt. "We have a few slmoleons In the bank, too," he said. The governor strongly advo cated a pay-as-you-go policy. Mis ery, he said, follows tbe spending of more than one has.

That bill. Martin said, not only Included the pauper's oath, so called, but likewise required a payment of 3 per cent Interest on old age assistance payments, to be deducted from the estate of the beneficiary.

As to tbe old age assist ance, he said be believes the re duction of the age of beneficiaries to 65 years was proper, and that more adequate payments are de sirable.

In a letter to The News and Herald, the labor council said: "We take this means of offi cially notifying you and the public that the Central Labor council la unanimously opposed to the pro posed parking meters and the way in which the deal was handled. "Costs Too Much" "We feel that Inasmuch aa this matter is either for the betterment or detriment of the majority of the people and not for a few that the meter problem should have been brought to the attention of the general public and not rail roaded through behind closed doors or some special meeting without any notice of same being posted or even a news item being published. "The business of our city Is con ducted on Main street, and with the parking meters installed will drive the business elsewhere and who wants to see that? "These meters cost too much money in the first place and the cut is all wrong In tbe second place. "Clean Out Alleys" As a suggestion to relieve the traffic congestion suppose the city cleans out some of tbe alleys so that trucks can deliver from the rear and eliminate about 75 per cent of the red paint on the curbs, and there will be lots of room for parking. "We all pay to keep np the streets once, and with the parking meters will mean double taxation. "When will the pedestrian meter make its appearance?"
