At the recent state convention of the Oregon Federation of Woman's Clubs resolution was adopted expressing disapproval of the referendum on the State University appropriation, and many words of loyalty for the univer sity were spoken. As a token of ap preciation for the active interest taken by the clubwomen of the state, M. J. Duryea, manager' of the promo tion department of the Eugene Com mercial Club, has sent to Mrs. Sarah A. Evans, president of the State Fed eration, a letter in which he expresses the gratitude of the University of Ore gon referendum committee, not oniy for the federation's support, but for the splendid personal assistance and influence of Mrs. Evans. Mr. Duryea says in part: "The influence of the women upon the life of the state has always been great, even though it hus not always been expressed directly through the use of the ballot Now that the women of Oregon share equally with the men of the state the privilege of citizen ship, we fell certain they are going to assume the responsibility of true and loyal citizens. It is gratifying that this important organization, of which you are the honored head, has taken an active stand and expressed itself by resolution in favor of the university." Mrs. Evans, In her reply to Mr. Dur- yea's communication, said that she should have considered the club women of Oregon unworthy if they had not so enthusiastically expressed their dis approval of the referendum on thq ap propriation and pledged their loyalty in this hour of need. "Women will undoubtedly bo an increasing factor in the educational. civic, social and- economic life of this state," wrote Mrs. Evans, "and I think as time goes on and the responsibility of her citizenship Is fully realized, you will find her rising above pettiness and using her influence for the upbuilding of the state."

Believing that there are many fea tures of the present model liquor ordi nance which are defective and inappro priate.

The defense will show, Mr. Logan said, that this shortage was money de posited by litigants and unearned, at the time the bank failed, by the county.
