THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, JANUARY 1G, 1920 mam IT ACT IS PARTIALLY ACCEPTED Oregon Constitution Changed Too Easily, Speakers Say. PROPOSED BILL ALTERED Two-Thirds Majority of Persons Voting, Not Those Registered, Is New Requirement. Ing- the coming- year. The commit-' tee also increased its appropriation ! to defray the expense of the special election to be held, in conjunction with the primary election in May, from 15000 to $15,000. Rogue Resolution Considered. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Jan. 15. (Special.) The Roirue river fish resolution, which, if passed, will clone the stream to all commercial fishing, was taken up by a Joint committee of the house and senate today end will be returned to the house without rec ommendation. Unless the resolution is adopted by the legislature the sponsors for the proppsed legislation have threatened to Initiate a measure and submit the question to the vote of the electors at the primary elec tion to be held in May. CEMENT BILL, AFTER HOT DEBATE, KILLED Schuebel Measure Encoun ers Foes in House. VENTURE HELD HAZARDOUS Fl'GAW FUNERAL IS HELD - RETIRED PRESBYTERIAN MIN ISTER NATIVE OF OHIO. Expenditure of Million In Manu facture of Road-Maklns Mate rial Counted Unwise. STATE CAPITOL., Balem. Or., Jan. 15. (Special.) A two-thirds majority of all persons Toting, rather than a majority of the voters registered, will be necessary to amend the state con stitution, .in the event a tentative agreement reached on the floor of the bouse today is approved by the com mittee on resolutions. The resolution, as originally drafted by Representatives Bean of Lane coun ty and Smith of Bake', provided that a majority of the registered voters of the state would be necessary to amend the constitution, but because of the strenuous opposition voiced by Repre sentative Smith of Multnomah county and Representative Schuebel of Clack amas county, and suggestions offered by Speaker Jones, the authors agreed to an amendment providing for a two thirds majority vote. Later It was decided to withdraw the resolution from the floor of the house with a view of making some minor amendments before placing it on final passage. Emergency Question liaised. Representative Smith of Multnomah county declared that the proposed amendment to the manner of chang ing the constitution was not an emer gency and that instead of assisting in holding intact the fundamental principles of the state government It would have a. tendency to discourage voters from visiting the polls. This, he said, would be a grave mistake, in amuch as one of the greatest prob lems before the voters of the United States today was that of interesting them in taking a, more active part in public affairs. Representative Bean declared that the state had been overrun with isms and that it was time that the people returned to the fundamental princi ples of government and provided pro tection for its constitution. "When you get away from the fundamental principles upon which .the law's of this nation are based," said Representative Bean, "you are encouraging bolshev ism and offering food for the agita tor. Under the present laws a few designing men can assemble, draft .what they term legislation of great importance and foist it upon the peo ple in the form of a constitutional amendment. System Held Wrong. "1 say this system is wrong, and am of the opinion that a two-thirds majority of the voters should be made to give their approval when a change is to be made in the constitution. The present majority vote of amending the constitution lowers the bars to the agitator and the big interests, and Is not based on sound arguments." Representative Smith of Baker said the constitution was sacred to the people of the state, and unless It was to have protection it might as well be wiped out. Under the present sys. tern, he declared, the constitution was a mere football and had been amended from time to time on the slightest pretext. Representative Schuebel said he feared that in case the proposed change in the manner of amendin the constitution was finally adopted it would have the effect of putting a damper on progressive legislation and would not be in keeping with the spirit of the people of the state. Representative James Stewart also declared his opposition to the pro posed resolution, and said he believed the law governing this subject should be left in Its present form. COURT BILL PASSES IIOCSE Domestic Relations Act Intended to Correct Existing law. STATE CAPITOL. Salem, Or., Jan. 15. (Special.) Senator Huston's bill providing for the establishment of a court of domestic relations in each eounty of the state which now has or shall hereafter attain a population of 200,000 inhabitants or more, and pre scribing the jurisdiction, duties and powers of such court, passed the house today. The bill previously had been approved by the senate. The purpose of the bill, according to its authors, is intended to insure the permanency of the domestic rela tions court already established in Portland under an act passed at a previous Session of the legislature. It had been intimated that the Jaw un der which thia court was established was unconstitutional, and the bill passed today is in reality corrective legislation. Enforcement Fund Agreed On. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Jan. 15. (Special.) At a meeting of the -Joint ways and means committee held here tonight it was tentatively agreed that J1000 should be appropriated for the enforcement of the proposed new gasoline test law which Is now before the legislature. Chairman Dennis of the roads and highways committee originally asked for an appropriation of 110,000, which he said would be re turned to the state many times over by the saving of 1 cent on every gal lon of gasoline sold in the state dur Dr. Edward H. Pence, Pastor ol - Westminster Church, Conducts Services. Dr. J. A. P. McGaw, for many yeara one of the most distinguished minis ters of the Presbyterian church and since 1906 a resident of this city, died to have an election for governo November to get down to business on this matter. Attorney-General Brown prepared yesterday and submitted for consid eration an amendment to the consti tution which provides that hereafter, ! when the secretary of state succeeds I trt th BntfD.nnrohln t h r nba.ll hO an election of governor at the first regular election. Mr. Brown gave tne members to understand that he did not want his draft amended or altered and that if the members did not like it they could prepare one to suit themselves. Mr, Brown's proposed amendment follows: "Artiee V. section 8. in caaa of the re-1 moral from office of rovernor. or of his death, resignation, absence from the state. or inability to discharge the duties of the office, the secretary of state shall act as i governor until the disability is removed or until the vacancy is filled at the next gen eral biennial election, and in the case of removal from office, death, reelgnatlon. i Ai UNIVERSITY :;::iO.A.C.

Born in Fairhaven, Preble county, O., February 4, 1835, Dr. McGaw went with his parents a year later to 111 inois, near Rock Island, where they settled on land in the Mississippi bot torn. While he was but a lad they died and he was left an orphan. it was tnrough the sacrifice of an older brother that he was sent to college, first at Knox, Oalesburg, 111., and afterward finishing at Miami university, Oxford, O., where he was graduated in 1856, in the same class with Whitelaw Reid and General Joe Fullerton. After graduating with honors he took his theological course in the United Presbyterian seminary also at Oxford. In 1859 he entered the services of the United Presbyteri an church at South Henderson, 111., as pastor, his first charge. When Dr. McGaw came to Portland in 1906, he retired from the active ministry, but filled occasionally vari ous pulpits and devoted much of his life to churches under direction of the missionary society, Dr. McGaw is survived by two eons.

Following a bitter debate during which several repre sentatives asserted that the people of Oregon wers at the mercy of the cement trust, the bill giving authority to the state highway commission to purchase. Construct and operate manufacturing plants and machinery for the, production of cement or other road-building material ana to expena from the state highway funds such money as might be necessary to ac complish the purposes -of the act, was defeated in the house today. Representative Schuebel, author Of the bill, declared on the floor that he had made a careful study of what was being done in other states and had found that California, through state-owned plants, was producing its road-making materials at a cost far less than is shown by the records of the Oregon highway commission. There is no doubt that the peo ple of this state are in the clutches of two great and powerful combines. declared Representative "and statistics gathered from other states show that our money is being wasted for the want of plants with which to produce road-making ma terials. State Road Costa Compared. 1 have been told on good authority that splendid roads are being built in California for as low as (6000 a mile, while the records In Oregon show that some of our highways cost much as $20,000 a mile." Representative Smith of Baker de clared it a well-known fact that state work costs mors than work done by private contract, and he was not ready to appropriate or authorize the high way commission to spend more than II, 000,000 of the taxpayers' money unless there was some assurance ot wise investment. "This is far from emergency legislation," said Mr. Smith, "and by passing the bill you would encumber the records of the state as well as launch an experiment which in the end might prove dis astrous." Representative Horn of Multno mah county also spoke in opposition to the bill. He asserted that of the several hundred cement plants now operating in the United States only few are producing a product which measures up to government specif! cations. Owo Example Cited. Representative McFarland declared there was no need for a state-owned plant, especially since more than $1 000,000 would be required to initiate the undertaking. "We have an ex ample of the cement business at Os wego, said he, "and from what I have been able to learn, the plant at that place has not paid a dividend since its inception." Representative Dennis said the sue cess of state cement plants had been fully tried In California, and that roads were being built in that state much cheaper than in Oregon On final rollcall only 26 members of the house voted for the bill. Speaker Jones, in recording the vote, said hp. was surprised that the bill had lost and was sorry that the egislature had not shown a disposi tion to back the highway commission. president or the senate sball act as gov ernor until the disability Is removed, or a governor be elected at the next senerml biennial election. The governor elected to till the vacancy shall hold office for the unexpired term of the Outgoing: governor." This amendment is all very well as far as it goes, but it is not exactly what some members of the legislature want. These Individuals would like to prepare an amendment of 'some description which will provide that the electors of Oregon have an op portunity to vote for a governor in November. How this can. be done in view of the decision of the supreme court that Ben W. Olcott succeeds to the full term of the late Governor vv ithycombe. notwithstanding that Ulcott s term as secretary of state expires next January, is the knotty legal problem which the solons are trying to find time to solve.

At noon Friday ths differences between the Oregon Ag rlcultural college and the University of Oregon will be in the hands of the joint ways and means committee. It this legislature Is to take action af fording financial relief to these In stltutions something must be done tomorrow, for Saturday, which will experience the rush of the closing session, will be too late. There is a clash between the Insti tutions and efforts to ameliorate them have been fruitless. Briefly, both college and university need more money, but the college wants more than the university and the latter resents this request. Large lobbies representing each side, have been buttonholing members and with ths progress of time the contest has as sumed a bitterness. University Charges IVeglect.

This initiative measure, which is declared to be one of the most vicious pieces of legislation ever attempted in the state, stipulates that any per son, firm or corporation hiring other pay a wage of not less than J4 aay or eignt nours lor any man 1 employe, or a wage of not less than $20 a week of 48 hours for any woman employe, excepting from the provi sions of the act farm labor or women employed as domestics. The bill would punish violation by a fine of not less tban $25 nor more than $500, or by Imprisonment not to exceed six months, or by both fine and imprisonment. Hunters Subject to Imprisonment.

Salary Boost Favored. is as far as the agreement lasts. Th Oregon Agricultural college thinks It should have six-tenths of a mill and that the University of Oregon should have four-tenths of a mill. Originally the colioge people decided the wanted seven-tenths and contended that three-tenths should satisfy the university.. Advocates of the university lnsls that Institution has too long bee neglected and that the college has been built up at the expense of th university. The university people say that the fair thing is to split the mill age tax 50-50 and tack on a very minor fraction for the normal schools. Deadlock Is Unbroken. For two weeks or more negotiation have been going on between the col lege and university with no other re suit than a deadlock which it has been impossible to break. Neither side feels like retreating from th position it has assumed, and because of this failure to agree the trouble is being dumped Into the lap of th ways and means committee. According to the college advocates, It was suggested that budgets be prepared and that the mileage be di vided on the basis shown necessary by the respective budgets. This plan say the college people, the university side declined to consider, nor would the university submit the matter to the board of higher curriculum. Th college, with an enrollment of abou 3300 students, says more money I required for the establishment, lab oratories, equipment and the like.

At noon today the rivals were still at loggerheads and then Senator Pat terson, for the college, offered a meas ure in the senate providing for a six- tenths of a mill levy for the Oregon Agricultural college. Scarcely had this appeared than the University of Oregon offered Its measure In the house through Representative Kubli, calling for a mill to be divided equally between the university and the col lege. This step on the part of the Eugene people made those from Cor vallis far from cheerful and In the rotunda of the statehouse where the lobbyists congregate there were some sharp remarks made on either side. Both the Patterson and the Kubli measures were to have been consid ered by the ways and means commit tee tonight, but as the senate held an evening session, the committee an nounced it would listen to arguments Friday at noon.
