next two years was approved
Wednesday night by the Joint
Ways and Means Committee.
The committee, in sending the
$10,062,000 construction program
to the floor of the House, dis
carded the fo,600,000 revenue
bonding plan and put its projects
into the general, lund program.
The revenue bonds would have
been financed by student pay
ments. Only Wednesday mornine it ao-
peared several projects might be
primmed to incorporate the reve
jnue bonding into the general fund
proposal.
The building program was up
for final consideration of the
House, but sent back to the com
mittee. But Wednesday night the joint
committee voted unanimously to
expand the general fund program
alter several members termed
revenue bonding unwise and too
costly.
I The committee's action will
I send the budget to more than 314
j million dollars, the Department
of Finance and Administration
i estimated.
Several committee members
said they felt the 40 million dol-
liar bonding program for all slate
building might be jeopardized if
the revenue bonding bill were ap
proved.
j The construction program to
extend over 10 years provides:
Portland State College class
room building, $2,750,000; Oregon
State College central heating
plant addition, $990,000: Oregon
College ot tducation central heat
ing plant addition. $375,000: ad
dition to Hoke Hall at Eastern
Oregon Collece of Education.
$155,000: physical plant addition
at the university of Oregon Med
ical School. $200,000.
Medical research building at
the medical school. $1,297,000: ad
dition to science building at the
University of Oreeon, $1,705,000:
Oregon State College physics-
chemistry building, $2,515,000;
and laboratories at the Univer
sity of Oregon Dental School,
$"5.ono.
The state Board of Higher Edu
cation requested 20 million dol
lars for the I959-1 biennium.
Dr. John Richards, chancellor
of the state System ot Higher
Education, had told the appro-
priation-wriung committee that
the Board of Higher Education
"would prefer an outrismt appro
priation but would settle for the
revenue of bonds.
He called the Portland State
Collece classroom building first
priority and said $1,250,000 in
lederal funds for the medical re
search building at the University
of Oregon Medical School might
be lost if the building is left out.
The big problem now is to en
gineer the program through both
houses.
Sen. Jean Lewis D Portland1,
said she is "concerned w won't
get anything, but we can try."

QUITMAN. Ga. (APi-'lt was
him"
With those words, a 25-year-old
j married wnite woman singled our

a fishing pond near her home.

held in connection with the case.
She had told officers her attacker
said his name was Jesse G.
Graham Jr.
Graham surrendered to Jones
Tuesday night after learning he
was being sought by a posse.
Jones spirited him to the Thomas
ville jail, 29 miles west of Quit
man, to avoid possible violence.
The woman viewed Graham in
a lineup with three other Negroes
and said her attacker was not
among them.
Graham gave the sheriff names
of five Negroes he had been asso
ciating with and w ho had been in
the area where the attack oc
curred Tuesday. The 16-year-old
was among those named.
Jones reported the youth said

he received scratches on his face
and teeth marks on his chest
from another girl last week.

Guest Meets
With Chamber
The Industrial Development
Committee of the chamber of com
merce met an interesting guest
Wednesday.
He was Tom Cunning, who will
be manager of the Los Angeles of
fice of the Portland (that's Ore
gon) Chamber of Commerce.
It might seem presumptuous, if
not foolhardy, for some other
chamber of commerce to wander
into booming Los Angeles, but
Cunning says that's not so. j
The Cunning plan is to meet in-i
dustries which have moved to Los i
Angeles and are interested in es-'
tablishing branches in the Pacific
Northwest.
Klamath County Chamber Mana
ger R. Frank Tucker emphasized
at the session that Klamath and
other chambers of commerce in
the state have enjoyed excellent
cooperation from Portland. He
wished the Portland people well
in tneir enterprise.
