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

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

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

assassination of Gen. E. R. S,
Canby and Rev. Elcaicr Thomas,
peace commission members, in

Tho county agricultural plan

it will bring out suiiio of the fac

the comment of Cuunty Agent
C, A. Henderson this week ae ho

After record years of svui'tline

wondering what chiiliges should
be made in their production
plans. 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. The ses
sion will be particularly helpful
to farmers who nave come to mo
county during the wartlmo per

agent observed.
Similar planning sessions in
earlier years have resulted In
major developments in the agri
culture of the state. One exam
