Senator Marshall Cornell,
candidate for reelection to the
state senate for the seventeenth
senatorial district, lodiiy issued
Iho following statement:
I believe I owe It to the ninny
newcomers In this district to
give them a short biographical
sketch otVinyself, together with
a statement regarding a few of
the things that I have stood for
in the Oregon state somite.
I 1 wns born in Burning
Springs, Ky., November 22,
181)8, on the same farm where
my ancestors had lived since
1788, and where my parents
still live. After serving more
than two years In World war I.
1 came to Oregon in 1921. I
worked for the port of Astoria,
after which I went to Alaska
as assistant superintendent of
a salmon cannery. In 1122 I
was married to Olive VanDeear
Byram. We enme to Klamath
Falls In 1926, where wo bought
and developed a ranch south of
town, which wc still own.
During the 18 years I have
lived in Klamath Fnlls I huvc
been active in various business
enterprises as well ns numer
ous city, county and state proj
ects. At present I am a member of
a senate interim committee,
which is making a study of
workmen's compensation laws.
This committee hopes to have
recommendations for the 11)45
legislative assembly that will
give to the workers of the state
greater protection and benefits
in case of injury or occupation
al disease. I nm chairnum of
Uie senate roads and highways
committee, which is the largest
and one of the most powerful
committees of our senate. Ijm
vice-chairman- of forestry and
forest products and a member
of the irrigation and drainage,
industries and game commit
tees, all of which nro of great
importance to this senatorial
district.
During my campaign in 1940,
I made only one specific prom
ise, which was that I would in
troduce and "support a measure
to reapportion this, the largest
senatorial district in the state,
in order that wo might have
more equitable representation
in comparison with the rest of
the state. This bill was lost in
the 1941 session because I re
fused to trade my vote for a
measure which I believed to be
unfair to the majority of the
people of the state, but wc
gained favorable press com
ments and I have hopes, if I
am reelected, of passing this
measure at our 1945 session.
During the 1943 session I
supported our present tax struc
ture which I believe to be one
of the best legislative steps that
this state has made in the past
decade.
In approaching this contest I
vow to continue my work in
bringing about a reapportion
ment of this district and pledge
myself to expend every effort
within my power on the impor
tant committees of which I am
fortunate enough to hold mem
bership, in preparing for and
receiving those benefits to
which this large central Oregon
area is entitled in- the after-war

years. If the iieonlc of this dis
trict see fit to return me to the
nosition which I now hold they
may be assured Hint I shall ap
proach the task with an open
mind and promise to give my
sincere consideration io every
measure presented and shall
work for and vole for only
those measures which will bene
fit the majority of this district
and the slate of Oregon and

ditions which prevailed after
the last war. My piaiiorni is
not one of promises, but Is
rather a platform based on my
past record, which is open for
all to study.
