W SILENTLY Legal Advertising ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------— — SURELY i t l d STATE CAPITOL NEWS A. L. LINDBECK State Capitol News Bureau SALEM— With the legislative ses sion now in Its fifth week all hope has been abandoned of adjournment at the end of the 40-day pay period. In fact It was only among the no vices of the session that this hope existed at the outset of the session. Speculation now centers on Just how tar beyond the 40-day period the session will extend with guesses ran ging from one to three weeks— that is a session of 50 or 60 days. senate bill No. 4 by Senator M cKay repealing the non-resident motor vehicle registration law. Under its provision tourists who visit this state will no longer be required to register their cars. The repeal was recommended by Secretary of State Earl Snell whq declared that It cost the state $20,000 a year to admini ster the law which had outlived Its usefulness. Athough more than 30 days have elapsed since the session opened lit tle has been accomplished to date that will have any bearing upon the public welfare. In fact, as far as that is concerned, there is nothing in the legislative hopper that could not be dumped overboard without any seri ous loss to the state as a whole. In many respects this session has been the most colorless within the mem ory of the oldest attendant upon these biennial lawmaking assemblies iiere in Oregon. County Judges and commissioners were in Salem this week to oppose a measure Introduced by Senator Dorothy Lee of Multnomah calling for a change in the method of han dling insane cases. The Lee bill would transfer responsibility for the custody of insane persons from the sheriff s office to that* of the coun ty health officer. It would also re quire that two physicians be called in to pass on sanity cases. The re form, it was pointed out, would work a great hardship on some of the more sparsely settled counties, es pecially those with only one physi cian which would necessitate the calling in of outside physicians at great expense to the taxpayers. The big ways and means commit tee started showing its appropria tion bills onto the floor this week, well ahead of the record of previous sessions which have seen these mea sures held up until the closing week of the session. Except for two or three matters of policy which his committee lias yet to determine it could very well iomplete its work this week. One of these problems in volves the manner of financing the Income tan division of the state tax commission. Heretofore this activity has been financed through approp riations out of the general fund. The governors' budget recommends that the $300.000 needed by the division be captured out of receipts before these are turned Into the general fund. Tills recommendation has a two-fold purpose. For one thing it would give the department more money than It could hope to get through an appropriation — money which the governor and the tax commission believe would be return ed to the state many times over in increased collection of income taxes. In the secon dplace tills "manipula tion" would releasee another »300, 000 of general fund money for oth er uses— to be doled out to other actlvttes or to balance the budget as the case might be. Much of the blame for the pro longed duration of the session must be accepted by the House organiza tion. Most controversial Issue before the session revolves about proposed amendment to the unemployment compensation act. Although most of these were In the hopper early In the session no attempt was made by the judiciary committee, which has these measures In charge, to whip them Into shape for legislative action until the fourth week of the session The House has also been most dila tory In Its attack on the problem of congressional and legislative reap portionment Practically every legis lator Is agreed that something muat be done about these problems at this session. Early In the session Speaker Farrell announced that he proposed to name a special committee to han dle this problem U p to Saturday night, with four weeks gone by and with six bills dealing with reappor tionment In the hopper, this highly Important committee had not yet been named. One o f the first measures of the current session to receive the sig nature of Governor Sprague was Considerable Interest attaches to attempts to tax trucks and busses for support of governmental activi ties. Qovernor Sprague In his mes sage to the legislature at the open ing of the session called attention to the fact that busses and trucks pay no general taxes, that all of the licenses and fees extracted from these commercial carriers go into the construction and maintenance of the highways which makes their operation possible. The governor suggested that the legislature should either move to capture the gras revenue tax now paid by these operators for the state's general fund, or to levy some new tax that could be used for general govern mental purposes. The House and the senate committees on high ways and highway revenue and assessment and taxation are giving serious con sideration to the problem but as yet have agreed on no program that appears to cover the situation. Dean Walker. Polk county sena tor, enjoyed the uinque experience this week of s ervii* in the dual capacity of president of the state senate and governor of Oregon, an experience without precedent in Oregon Walker, senate president, became governor when Governor Sprague went to Denver to attend a conference of western governors mi state rights over non-navlgable streams, a field which the federal government now threatens to In vade in ,the New Deal's search for more power.
