ru ninn Editor MALCOLM trUT Managing: Editor tbt ponoffict of Klimirt lets UBKURIPTION RATEM MMjnoalh Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY OREOON'S lawmakers, who go Into session Monday, must be tired already. All legisla tive prognostication! have dwelt at length on the enormoui problem that confront the sena tors and representatives, witn generous use of such adjectives as "critical," "crucial," "con troversial" and "challenging" applied to the issues that seem certain to arise in a session that some say will go all of TO toilsome days. Our good friend Paul Har vey, who covers the legislature for the Associated Press, writes that the legislature will be the . most experienced in the state's history, but "it will need mat experience to cope with the tri." momentous problems of taxation, budget, labor, schools, unemployment compensation, Industrial Insurance and highways." You see what we mean, , Just to think about It aU is enough to give one a headache. Experienced And Republican THE senate, over which Klamath's Marshall Cornett will preside, has 29 members with previous legislative experience, and one without. In the house, where Klamath's Henry Semon is one of the oldest members in point of service, only 12 of the 60 members are without previous legislative service. Mr. Semon, incidentally, Is one of only two democrats in the lower house. The other is Man ley J. Wilson, St. Helen's, rated as the only real labor spokesman in the entire legislature. The senate has five democrats. This one-sided party line-up, however, is not as significant as it may seem to the observer. Party issues are not of . great Importance in the Oregon legislatures, and there are many shades of republicans there. Issues LETS take a quick look at some of the issues likely to arise: TAXES The legislature will consider recom mendations of the tax study committee for a business tax, stlffer Income levies, more tax money from liquor and racing. The sales tax question might come to the front as the legisla tors hunt for funds to pay more money to state employes (Including the state policemen); to meet the people's mandate for a $15,000,000 an imal distribution for schools, and so on. LABOR An anti-closed shop amendment may be referred to the people. Other labor bills, de signed to restrict the activities of unions or to compel them to assume financial and contractual responsibility, will undoubtedly come before the legislature. Labor, not strong In the legislature, may force referenda on measures it fears. LIQUOR Attempts to liberalize liquor laws, such as a scheme to permit liquor . uy Moty Observers generally regard his visit drink, may be expected. There is a p an on foot to Monty Observer, g Ue mlssion ol cing the Marine Barracks vocation educational project, attempts to curb chain banks, bigger benefits for veterans, liberalization of unem ployment compensation, restrictions on PUD elections, bigger old age pensions, a state fores try program, and that ancient ruckus between commercial and sports fishermen, are Just a few of the miscellaneous items on the tentative legis lative agenda. We have run quickly over the list with the idea of informing our readers of things likely to come up which affect them directly. They might as well know, so they can get their word in to our legislators in time. The Klamath dele gation is going to have plenty to do, but part of its Job is to consider the opinion of constitu ents, and we give you the names and addresses of our representatives: Senator Marshall Cornett, Slate Senate, Salem, Representative Henry Semon, House of Repre sentatives, Salem, Ore. Representative Rose Poole, House of Repre sentatives, Salem, Ore. The World Today By DeWITT MacKENZIE Associated Press Foreign Affairs Analyst NEWS ITEM: The reported romance between England's charming young Princess Eliza- i v,nn.n... Prim-a Phlliu of Greece has UVUl W ll imiluevuiv , . .v.. .hiw. nf nnlitieal controversy in UWUlllC J""Jlt' - News item Field Marshal Montgomery, Eng i,i. f,n,, snlriier. has been feted in Moscow, and the Soviet press is paying tribute to him as one of the world's outstanding commanders. "And what," demands a reader, "is the rela tionship U any between Elizabeths romance and Monty's lionization In the red capital. It sounds like a sad mixture of shoes and ships- and sealing wax of cabbages and king. Well that's a fair question, and maybe w e shou dn tackle such a riddle. Still, there's a very definite association of ideas, and when we have made this clear we shall have uncovered a highly significant political development. We may well start with some queries propounded a few days ago by the London newspaper Pic torial": ... SIDE GLANCES Russ Reaction 1 1 HAT will be Russia's reaction to Eliza W beth's engagement to a prince whose identification and origin will scarcely be dis guised by formal British citizenship? Or is the Russian reaction to such a personal matter of no reThCat"sCerWhat will Russia think? Poor a ohilini Whv should Moscow be concerned wTth an affair of heart between two youngsters who are just start ng out n life and have had no hand in international affairs? The answer lies in the fact that the prince is a Greek-and the Russian bear is claws-down cm Greece. So are the little beare-Yugoslavla Al bania and Bulgaria. Indeed, Greece claims that these northern neighbors are to all intents mak- taeTausVofnSthihs"tuaUon. the left wing of the British socialist (labor) party is uneasy about the possibility of the prince marrying into the Brit tab TroyYfamlly. This left wing has been urging the government to re-orient its foreign policy -so as to bring Britain and Russia closer together, and thus dissipate Moscow's belief that England and America are ganging up on the Soviet Union. . ., ' j u.i. wir That completes our circle aim m.i.y ---- com in 0v ma giawci, tm. v 0t, " Scout Meeting Thoro will be meeting of Girl Scout leaders, troop committee members and parents at 1 p. m., Monday .

Records Show Lone Hanging For Crime In This County (Continued From Page One) Theodore Jordan, a negro, was sentenced to hana February 3 1933. for the murder of F. T. Sullivan, an SP dining car stew ard, but his sentence was re duced to life imprisonment by Governor Julius Meier. Such organizations as the American Civil Liberties com mittee and others were active at that time, and it was their pres sure on Governor Meier which won Jordan his commutation. Jordan is still in prison. According to courtnouse mem ories there was an Indian in the county Jail some time before the state took over the Job of execu tioner in 1903, under sentence to hang. While the scaffold was being built he died in Jail. Captain Jack, the Modoc In dian leader, with three other In dians named Schonchln, Black Jim and Boston Charley, were hanged at Fort Klamath Octo ber 3. 1873, for their part In the assassination of Gen. E. R. S, Canby and Rev. Elcaicr Thomas, peace commission members, in the Lava Beds country on April 11 of that year.

Basically, the situation still Is the same as In the prewar years, the age:it stated, Oregon must market a large amount of Its crops and livestock products nuLsldv the state. The domestic market probably will bo much mure importnnl thun foreign outlets, and the volume of in dustrial employment and trade policies will have a great bear ing on tho domestic market. The basic Job, the agent stated, is to do the best Job of farming we can on the individual farms and to cluuinol our production along tho lines that seem best able to meet competition from other regions in out-of-state markets. Tho object of the farm confer ence to analyze tne situation nd trends in each of the com modities which the farms of this area produce is also to recom mend further development where opportunities exist for Im proving farm income.
