BUSY BUT QUIET
MIS PASSED
BY LEGISLATURE
Harmony "Has Prevailed in
' Session So Far Fisher
Sponsoring New Text
book Measure.
SALEM, Jan. 31, (By Special
Correspondence to the News-Review)
What seems like a quiet
week to many has been busy un
der the surface.' Committees have
iiad more activity than house and
senate sessions. 1
Phone inquiry brought a lobby to
Salem. It is not possible to pre
dict what progress .will be piade,
but there is opinion than an In
vestigation will result only as most
oC them do, in expense to the state
and further evidence that federal
and state regulatory bodies cap be
depended upon to adjust rates in
fuirness to both the public and the
operating companies. The subject
-is not generally discussed-.
Reforestation is up for consid
eration with intention to form a
definite policy for protecting and
restoring forest growth to make it
a permanent Oregon resource.
Free text books In all districts,
subject to decision of school di
rectors, with right to levy special
tax in addition to all other taxes,
subject to vote of residents, with
only 25 per cent required on peti
tions, privilege of contracting for
six years for school books, is meet
ing considerable opposition be
cause of its lack' of uniformity, ex-
ponse to those who move from one
' district to another and various
other objections. A lobby from
the parent teachers organization?
is here to work for it.
Tax Board Proposed
' Speaker Carkin has a bill, No,
75, which makes it possible for
10 taxpayers in any district to ap
peal from the tax levy ,in that dis
trict, and providing .that the ded
sion of the Btate tax commissioner
shall be final. Theso would be ap
; peals to the state board of con
trol. Te membership of the state
tax commission and state board of
control are identical the gover
nor, secretary of state and state
'treasurer, the secretaries being ap
pointive in each. It makes in ef
fect the three officials and tax
. commissioner a board of equaliza
tion for the state. ."i
Next week is Indicated for some
hot talk in house and senate when
bills are returned ' from commit
tees. The session, with few explo
sions so far, may yet develop
some contests of Importance to
bring out the . fighting quality of
the members.
A flock of income tax arguments
with a dozen plans to get money
in the treasury for current expense
wil doubtless come before the leg-
- islature before February 1st. Near
ly two hundred of the prgdictod
bills, resolutions anu mint memor
ials are already in hand or ready
for Introduction as in previous ses:
sions. So far it is a good peace
ful session, and with harmoniouB
relations existing between the gov-
' crnor and the legislative bodies,
much can reasonably be expected
from the thirty-fourth session.,

'ew wax-wrapped moisture-proof packages assure oven-crispne$$
NE of the most striking announcements in the cracker and
biscuit industry mmany years, says one of txie leading
food authorities of the country.
: ; We-are npy wax-wrapping Snow Flakes and other Snow
Flake Bakers' Products that these widely known foods may
reach your table as crisp, fresh and appetizing as the mo
ment they. were packed. 7e have installed the first battery
of wax-wrapping machines in the West and we are pioneer
ing the moisture -jproof protection of all packages for the
first time anywhere in the nation! y 11
We are extending, too, for the first time inj the history
of the industry, a definite Guarantee of Freshness. Domestic
Science teachers, leading food editors and prominent club
women of the West have placed their unqualified endorse
ment upon this big step forward ui food protection.
The quality and uniform goodness of Snow Flakes is zeal
ously guarded. We rigidly adhere to one master formula'
and one unvarying standard of the purest ingredients we
can procure. To maintain a uniform standard of flour
every day in the year we own and operate our own wheat
fields in a favored Blue Stem district in Eastern Wash
ington and mill this choice wheat by a controlled process.
Six great bakeries bring every home from Alaska to Mexico
within a few hours of Snow Flake ovens. This location of '
nearby plants is in itself a long step toward constant fresh
ness and flaky crispriess, but we have now taken even greater
precautions by wax-wrapping in moisture-proof packages
and giving you complete and absolute protection in our
Guarantee of Freshness.
