Opinions Voiced Here On Proposal $1 For Reapportioning Legislature Should reapportionment of Oregon's legislature be on the basis of population, area, or both? That was 'a question posed at Roseburg Friday night by a Legislative Interim Committee on reapportionment. Members of the committee at tending were Senator Philip Hitch cock, Klamath Falls, Rep. Ivan Laird, Sitkum, James T. Marr, Portland, representing state AFL; Ralph Staley, executive secretary; Marshall Swearingen, Salem, Ore gon Farm Bureau; Elmer McClure, Portland, Oregon Grange Master, Ward B. Spatz, Medford, repre senting industry; and Mrs. Will Davis, Portland, representing the public. After introductory remarks by Hitchcock ,who described past re apportionment measures and pro posals, the group called for com ments from the audience. W. B. Fout, representing the Cen tral Labor Council, declared the council feels that labor should be represented more by the legisla ture on a population basis. "In this community," he said "labor is not represented as strong ly as in a larger population. There fore we have a harder struggle in accomplishing anything because we aren't recognized." Russ Cary, commented that he favored a combination of area and ' population representation and stressed the area representation was to "help the farmers and give them a chance." He suggested the federal plan of the House on a population basis and the Senate on the area basis. He further suggested county lines for boundaries for the legislative districts, "because they are al ready set up and everybody knows where they are." "They could be set up on a dis trict plan, but they're too change able along political lines," he said. Albert G. Flegel in support of special districts, cited Reedsport as the "forgotten land of Douglas County" because of its geographi cal inaccessibility. He also urged that employers be taken into con sideration without employers. the union would have a dickens of a time and without employers the farmers wouldn't sell much," he said.

"He's just a bridegroom you don't know how lucky you are," said the first wife. "Yes," remarked the second wife morosely, sipping her martini. "Wait until you've had him around a lit le longer.

' The cold wave permanent usually produces one or more of three characteristic stains: 1. Bleaching. 2. Color change. 3. Purple spots.. The average cold wave permanent requires the ap plication of several solutions. "Thioglycollic" acid Is us ually an ingredient of the first of these. ' This is the sub stance which is used in chemical laboratories to detect the presence of minute quantities of iron, the presence of which causes the solution to turn purple. Thus, should the cloth on which the cold wave solution is spilled con tain metal threads or traces of iron from washing in hard water, a purple stain will appear. The second solution in cold waving is alkaline to a slight degree and usually contains hydrogen peroxide, a bleaching agent. Spilling this solution on a garment would account for bleaching, loss or reduction of color ond the appearance of a brown discoloration, if the gar ment had formerly been bleached with a potassium per mangate, whether in manufacture, at home or by a cleaner. A particularly unpleasant feature of cold wave stains lies in the fact that often they remain invisible until heat is applied or oging (hence, oxidation) reactivates the chemicals. Then, arjoin. brown spots appear. Bring them in for cleaning as soon as possible. But remember, because of the acid and bleach content of these solutions, a cold wave stain is likely to produce permanent damage which may not be immediately perceptible.
