200 NEW LAWS
TO TAKE EFFECT
(Continued from page 1)

This law, it was i::i.Hl. was advocated
; a means of determlnltiB tho protf
reus that Is behitf made by orientals
with relation to tho acquirement of
properly In the stute.
Of particular Interest to tho IokiiI
fruternlly U a law which authori.es
the chief justieo of the supremo court
to uhSiKn so-called outsido Judges to
y.ii in Aliilinomah county. i"or this
service these Judges will recelvo. their
regular com pciiH.it ion together with
ti clay expense money. An effort
waa made during the legislature to
create ihr
pruptiutcd for tho enforcement of tho
liquor statutes under the state prohi
bition director may be used in com
batting the driifj evil. It Is likely, of
ficials said, that at least two official
will be employed by the state In the
narcotic division. This department Is
under the jurisdiction of the gover
nor. Other laws of Importance author
ize the sterilization of certain defec
tives under the direction or the state
board of eugenics and guard against
fraud in the cireiilatton of referen
dum, initiative and recall petitions.
Two Laws Are. Attacked
Two laws enacted at the last ses
sion of tho legislature, the state in
come tax and the act malting it un
lawful to use dairy products in the
manufacture of butter substitutes.
Iiavo been attacked by the referen
dum and will' not go into effect
Thursday, as originally intended. The
latter act is known as the oleomar
garine law.
Two referendum ' measures have
been filed with the secretary of state
against the state Income tax law, ont
by the Oregon Just Tax league and
the other by the Oregon Income Tax
Referendum league. This law will
be referred to tho voters for appro
val or rejection at a special erection
to be held in November of this year.

not being a revenue measure, will

have taken place in these commodi
ties in which -labor costs play a large
part, and it was assumed on this ba
sis that recent wage advances will be
a sustaining factor. In fact, it is
claimed that it is raw materials
prices whitfh have reacted and that'
these reactions have convex in re
sponse to uncertainty over the effect
of higher wages.
Production at High Level.
Production meanwhile is being
maintained at a level which ap
proaches the best rate of the year.
The absolute amount of cotton con
sumed by the country's mills during
April was slightly smaller than the
high record of iMarch. iWlhen allow
ance is made for the smaller number
of working days in April, however,
the rate of consumption .in the two
months is approximately equal.
Some curtailment of operations by
New England textile mills has been
reported. But it is thought that this
tendency will not become general aa in any other year.
, most of the mills have contracts ex
tending into tho summer. By that
timo the uncertainty cif tho price of
the new cotton crop will, it is ex
pected, be considerably reduced.
No letup in activity at the steel
mills is apparent. Production is, if
anything, higher and the product j ar.
stated to be passing directly into con
sumption. Consumers are reported to
be taking all the steel that the mills
can turn out and the present rate is
confidently expected to be maintain
ed during the third quarter of the
year. f
