NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL’S PROGRAM ------ * — Co-operative Marketing Association for Malheur Farmers A Properly Equipped Trailer Camp A City Park A Comprehensive Street Improvement Plan w ¿ ' k STATE CAPITOL NEWS A. L. LINDBECK State Capitol News Bureau SALEM, Ore. — Legislative reap- portlonment is out for the current session and In all likelihood for an other ten years, or until alter Uncle Sam completes another census. Two such proposals were rejected by the lawmakers this past week. One of these involvd a slight change In the senate set-up. The other In volved a major operation In the house apportionment. In the senate a proposal to abol ish the Umatilla-Unton-Morrw dis trict and transfer that senator to Klamath county met with over whelming defeat. Senator Cornett of Klamath county in support of his measure pointed out that the four northeastern Oregon counties of Umatilla. Union. Wallowa and Mor row with a combined population of only 55,000 is represented by three senators, whereas his own district comprising Klamath, Deschutes, Lake, Jefferson and Crook counties, with a combined population In ex cess of 70,000 has only one senate seat. The proposed shuffle had the support of the senate committee on elections and privileges and It was thought that it had the support of a majority of the senate members until the roll call revealed other wise. In the House Representative Kltr_- berltng's proposal to give each county one House seat and distri bute the remaining membership on a population basis met with decisive defeat after that assembly had turned down a proposal by Neuber gcr of Multnomah county that the entire state be redistricted on a straight-out population basis. Even if the legislature does pass the bill authorizing construction of another office building It Is not likely that the building will be start ed for several years. Members of the ways and means committee have freely expressed themselves as op- lxxsed to any pxtenslve building pro gram during the period of high la bor and material prices. These members feel that it would be better to wait until after the boom Induced by the defense and war industries program bursts and there Is a real need for Jobs to take up the slack of unemployment that Is expected to follow. This view Is said to be shared by members of the State Board of Control who are understood to have agreed to delay the building pro gram pending a real need to pro vide jobs. Appropriations so far authorised by the ways and means committee exceed the governor's budget by more than $500.000. This deficit Is off-set In part by Increased revenue estimates but even at that the gen eral fund Is confronted with a de flclt of more than $350.000 on the basis of authorized expenditures. The autocratic attitude of federal bureaucraties Is beginning to get under the skin of the Oregon legis lators. Much of the legislation that Is considered at this session Is vir tually dictated from Washington This Is especially true o f legisla tion effecting state activities sup ported In part by federal funds. When the Washington bureaucrats decide that certain legislation Is de sirable they pass the word along through their henchmen who tell the representatives of the sta te to pass It "or else." The latest attempt to dictate to the Oregon lawmakers came this week In a hearing on the proposed new state office building when representatives of the Social Security board told the ways and means committee that Oregon must take steps to provide more adequate quarters for the Unemployment Compensation commission “or else." The "or else” Involves a threat to withhold federal funds for admin istering the jobless Insurance fund which are taken away from Oregon employers In the first Instance by the Washington bureaucrats and re turned to the state only on condi tion that the terms of the Social Security board be complied with. This latest threat aroused the re sentment of several committeemen members with Senator Pearson de claring himself as opposed to the proposed new building unless the unemployment compensation com mission was barred from occupying space in It.
