One of the "blocking" plans, sub-

"blocks" around the private hold­

stockmen, in each case. Rentals on

others will air their views on the ing purposes and scattered over the
seven grazing counties but without

One of these plans provides for any particular regard to accessibil­

Holman, at whose request S tan­

paid by stockmen for use cf the moting competitive bidding to the
public domain. The other two plans enrichment of the Irreducible school
involve the "blocking'' of the state fund. Governor Martin, however,

the advantage of the large stock-

Holman as discouraging competition
in the biddng and not adequately
safeguarding the interest of the
school fund. Secretary of State
Snell, the third member of the
board, has indicated th at he will

Salem—A scheduled audience be­
tween Oovernor Martin and a dele­
gation of Workers' Alliance mem­
bers failed to materialize Friday
when the governor late in returning
to his office from a tour of irriga­
tion projects in Clackamas county.
Realizing that he would not be
able to keep his appointment on
time the governor had telephoned
his office of his delay and the in­
formation was passed on to leaders
of the delegation. These, however,
decided not to await the belated
arrival of the governor and the 200
marchers who had been hovering
around the state house for an hour
adjourned to Marion Square, some
ten blocks away, where they spent
another hour in listening to their
leaders harargue the governor and
WPA for its retrenchment policies.
Neither would they return to the
state house when the governor up­
on his return sent word that he was
ready to receive them.
