SALEM, Dec. 30.-Much of the work of
the board of equalization, has been
made impossible because the report of
the last board was never printed. 1t
has never been fled with the state
printer AS the board ordered should be
done. John P. Robertson prepared con-
siderable valuable work for that report
and enough were ordered printed to sup
ply one to each assessor and mem bers of
the legislature, with suggestions as to
eqalized assessments and needed legisla-
ton. The governor did not know that
the first hoard had never made report
and has written Secretary Carroll AT
Union, Oregon, to file it at once so as to
get it printed in time for the legislature
to consider it.
