PAGE TWO THE NEWS AND THE HERALD, KLAMATH FALLS, ORE. January 13, 1911 T POINTED OUT; (Continued From Page On-) to permit bigger trucks on state highways Is expected to be one of the most controversial of the session, but the governor en dorsed it on grounds that the re stricting of trucks handicap many areas of the state which are de pendent solely upon motor trans portation. . , But at the same time, he rec ommended that motor carriers be required to pay taxes to sup port general government, either by levying new taxes or by di verting part of their present taxes to the general fund. The taxes they now pay are used for building and maintaining roads. . The governor also recommended stricter regulation of log-hauling. Efficiency . Appointment of an adminis- trator for the workmen's com-.- pensation law is designed to bring about more efficient man- agement, he said. The governor also approved the proposal to abolish jury trials in appeals -from awards by the Industrial accident commission. - The school tax equalization : proposal, defeated last session. ' would equalize school taxes with' . in counties. The net effect would ' ' be that richer districts would help support the poorer dis - tricts. Overcrowding Governor Sprague said the ' building program for state in : ititutlons, to cost $300,000 a year for six years, would relieve over crowding, particularly at the ' state hospital. He also asked that institution employes be ' given an eight-hour working cay. The governor asked the legis lators to try out the experience rating system under the unem- " ployment compensation law. This proposal, opposed by labor groups, provides that employers wno nave dismissed few em- ' ployes shall pay smaller nan-oil taxes, while higher taxes would be assessed against employers wno dismissed many employes. Other recommendations in " elude:--- ' - Xnaot a constitutional amend- ment to restore voting rights to penitentiary inmates who have aerved their sentences, give the governor authority to organize a state guard to replace the na tional guard which now is in federal service, give the game ' commission full power to fix seasons and bag limits, permit .peoples utility districts to sell . their bonds to the federal gov ; emmert by negotiation, adopt a pension system for employes of DEFENSE COS FAVORED What was the tit range spell that made this woman Defy the Unwrit ten Law of the Orient?

He warned that Oregon must plan ahead to bring about per manent prosperity, asserting that the present prosperous times are not stable because they are due to "liberal federal expenditures for rearmament and to the rapid consumption of exhaustible re sources." FARREL WINS SPEAKER GAVEL IN LEGISLATURE (Continued From Page One) votes, he got only five of the 22 democratic ballots. After the 33 to 27 vote for Farrell was announced at the caucus, .

Oregon Legislature Will Study Problem of Stepping Up Agricultural Trading (This Is the last of six ar ticles on the work facing the 1941 legislature, which meets in Salem Monday. Today's story discusses miscellaneous legislation). By PAUL W. HARVEY JH. SALEM, Jan. 13 (P) About a year ago, Governor Charles A- ?Pra8ue appointed an eco- nomlc council to study methods by whlch Oregon might in crease us iraae. inai council decided one of the best ways would be to promote marketing of Oregon agricultural products. This problem will be thrown into the lap of the legislature. Here's what it means. In the eastern and Mississippi valley states, there is a vast potential market fo Oregon products. But back there, they think all good things to eat come from California. As a result, some Oregon canners and packers have gone so far as to place California labels on their products. Of course, Oregon pears are well known because of extensive ad vertising by the growers. But the same can't be said for the state's prunes. The council thinks that much ! advertising is needed. Grades and standards must be made uniform. The products must be placed in attractive contain ers. Where California prunes have been placed in pretty bags or cans, Oregon prunes have been put in ordinary sacks. Hence, eastern housewives buy the ones in the pretty contain ers. Every few years, a legislature has to repeal and. correct a lot of mistakes made by previous sessions. That was done two years ago, so there shouldn't be much of that during: the next session. Oregon cities may again try to get funds from gasoline tax revenues. They tried to get $800,000 last session to be used TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY FURNISHED three-room apart ment.

The cities con - tend they should have the money because residents of cit ies pay most of the gasoline taxes. Governor Sprague won't have any recommendations regarding the liquor laws having said he thinks the people are satisfied with them a they now stand. However, he indicated he would like to see the legislature pass laws to restrict the sale of for tified wines, and to give the liquor commission power to regulate sale of liquor in clubs and hotels. This last measure was defeated at the November election, and the fortified wine bill was beaten in the 1939 ses sion.

"Waltzing Matllclu" Is tho fa mous Australian tramp song, full of strange words peculiar to the people "down under." This Is the way the song begins: "One a Jolly swaginan ramped by a blllahong under the shade of a Colllbah tree, and he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled, 'You'll come awaltrlng Matilda with me,' " (In plain American, according to Webster's, this melius thai an Itinerant sang about Matilda as ho waited (or his pot to boll whllo camping beneath a gum tree beside a river backwater.) Australians have a reputation In England of being quite mad. The story Is told of a group of Aussles wulklng In U.viio park where they met a pretty nurse maid wheeling a bahy. The sol diers promptly look the baby out and put the nurse In the per ambulator and wheeled her around the park at break neck speed, uttering wild cries and shrieking laughter. It is this sort of thing that tho British find difficult to appreciate. British army officers are sp oil- duct of the Australian soldiers. There Is little "spit polish" among the Aussles. The officers and men fraternize and address each other by their first names and only salute when absolutely necessary. British officers were deeply shocked at the story of an Australian colonel who ad dressed his men before an In spection by a high dignitary.
