of Its adverse effect on eastern
Oregon counties, whose leglsla

against it.

more school taxes than they
would receive back are Crook,
Douglas, Gilliam, Grant, Harney,
Jefferson, Klamath, Lake, Mor
row, Multnomah, Sherman, Uma
tilla, Wallowa, Wasco and Wheel

- "Mr. Thomas said that the ef
fect of this bill would be that
. rich counties would help poor
counties," Miller said. "I am
complimented that he classes
eastern Oregon counties as being
rich.
- "I don't see any more sens
In Morrow county helping a Wil
lamette 4-alley county than I do
in the state of Oregon helping
the school children in New
York." '
A similar measure, but which
would have equalized school
taxes within counties instead of
on a statewide basis, was defeat
ed in the house last session. ' '
Sneaker Robert S. Farrell Jr.
and Rep. Frank J. Lonergan (R
Multnomah) introduced a bill to

considered if the legislature ap
proves measures to raise revenue
from other sources, such as taxes
on utility revenues or on retail

The senate voted to permit
me introduction of the bill to
permit trucks up. to ; 60,000
pounds to enter Oregon' as far

already had defeated the bill to
permit bigger trucks on all state
highways.

Occupation of Bulgaria would
bring the nazis up against Greek
territory and put them in an
admirable position for attack

it would be admirable if the
Turks don't rush to the aid of
the Greeks and hurl their big

Should the Turks Join in the

it. He turned, then, and shook
hands with Benjamin Cohen,

crumpled from his long jour

mechanized columns still were
thundering down tho streets in
increasing numbers and huge
Junkers transport planes were
coming down methodically on
the Sofia airdrome, packed with
troops.
The soldiers were in battle
dress.
They wore steel helmets and
complete regulation battle kit
and reached the center of this
hcapital late in the day.
The Germans carried rifles,
gas masks and heavy packs of
battle gear as they rode into
the city.
Three carloads rolled through
the main streets of Sofia and
passed the German legation.
Swarms of German fighter
planes winged over the city,
circling low enough for the
cross and swastika markings to
be plainly seen.
As soon as the first nail troop
cars rolled into the city, many
German firms unfurled swastika
flags.
Police began to clear the
main avenues of approach, in
dicating that heavy troop trans-
Port was outside the city.
VIENNA, Mar. WPI In the
presence of Adolf Hitler, little
Bulgaria signed up today for
partnership in the German-Ital-ian-Japanese
military alliance.
Through the signature of her
premier, Bogdan Phlloff, Bul
garia cast her lot with her big
ally of the World war, Ger
many, joining Rumania, Hun
gary and Slovakia as the small
er states which have been lined
up for the "new order."
The ceremony came at 1:50
p. m. (3:50 a. m. PST). Historic
Belvedere palace was the set
ting. vclt had given to Lord Halifax,
the British ambassador to Wash

King George VI, who also had
been scheduled to greet the new
envoy arrived five minutes
late.
Apparently slightly embar
rassed. Kent hurried into the
waiting room at the airport
and greeted Winant. They re
turned obligingly to the plane
where they posed for pictures,
shaking hands just as though
the duke had been on time.
"I haven't much to say," Wi
nant told reporters. Then he
nervously shifted one foot, bit
his lip and in a loud clear voice
added:
"I'm glad to be here. There's
no place I'd rather be than in
England."

By The Associated Press
Straddling the United States,
two storms of gale Intensity
swept up the east and west
coasts yesterday (Friday).
On the Atlantic seaboard,
swirling snow reached a depth
of 14 inches In New Jorsey, took
at least 17 lives In traffic and
other accidents, and tied up
much shipping and air travel. -
In California, squalls and sud
den wind-gusts ripped roofs from
sheds and buildings, uprooted
hundreds of trees and blew down
power lines.
The gale swept off the Pacific
on a front of several hundred
miles, reaching velocity ranging
as high as 90 miles an hour at
one or two points. It ripped
roofs from sheds and buildings,
and crippled light, telephone and
heating service In many areas.
The eastern blizzard caused
seven deaths in automobile ac
cidents in Pennsylvania; three
more each In Virginia and New
Jersey, and two in Maryland.
