"WATCH US GROW" (Special to the Enterprise) The following letter comes the first week of the session telling the im podtant considerations before the leg islature up to Monday morning, Jan uary 20th. Salem. If the prompt manner In which the legislature organized and started to work Is an indication of the manner in which the law-making business Is going to bo conducted it augurs well for a successful session. Thero was no bickering in either house over organization. Both the president of the senate, W. T. Vinton of Yamhill county, and the speaker of the house, Seymour Jones of Marlon county, were elected without opposi tion. The legislative mill began to grind promptly after organization was com pleted, with less useless debate than during the first week of any session for many years. While fewer bills were introduced than usually appear during the first week of a session, seldom does the Initial week see so many Important measures brought for ward. All told, 50 bills have been introduced In the house and 31 in the senate. - The first important action of the legislature after organization was the ratification of the national prohibition amendment. The prohibition resolu tion passed the house with only three negative votes, cast by Kublt, Lewis and McFarland, all from Multnomah county. In the senate the resolution was passed by an unanimous vote. Bill Passed to Relieve Soldiers. The first bill passed provided for the creation of a soldiers' and sailors' commission for the relief of returning soldiers, appropriating $100,000 for that purpose. The bill passed both houses with only one dissenting vote, cast by Senator Wood of Washington county. Governor Wlthycombe promptly signed the hill and announced the ap pointment of W. B. Ayer, chairman; John H. Burgard, A. H. Cranston and John H. Stevenson, all of Portland, as the personnel of the new commission. A technical error was discovered In the soldiers' relief bill by the auditing department of the secretary of state, which Is held to render it unconstitu tional, and will necessitate sending the bill back to tho legislature for amendment Consolidation Plans Harmonious. For a time there were Indications of a clash between the house and senate over the consolidation pro gram, but tho differences were smoothed over. A practical plan Is being worked out under which the joint committee will put Into form all proposals for consolidation, ellmlna tlon or merger of duties of various departments and commissions. Members who have been here for several sessions declare that never before have they seen the legislature as a whole in such a seeming state of harmony on the consolidation question as now, and It Is believed the conflict which blocked all efforts at consoli dation two years ago will bo avoided. Radicals to Be Curbed. A bill was introduced In the senate by Senator Dimlck and a somewhat similar bill in the house by Mr. Kubll directed at criminal syndicalism and designed to suppress Bolshevik! and I. W. W. activities. The measures de fine criminal syndicalism and sabo tage, and would curb lawlessness seek ing Industrial revolution. They would punish by fine and Imprisonment not only actual destruction of property, but also the distribution of litoraturo or the teaching of such propaganda. The bills are expected to meet the desire of Governor Wlthycombe as expressed in his message that a law providing for the punishment of treas on be ena'cted. State Police Is Created By Bill. Creation of tho department of state police Is proposed In a bill Introduced by Senator Orton, of Multnomah. The bill provides for an appropria tion of $60,000 for the support of the department for a two-year period. A superintendent of state police, to m LL GIVE YOU 15.

Provide for Employment of Soldiers, First of the reconstruction bills to be lntinduced In the senate ,was that of Senator Huston, making employ ment of war veterans, either soldiers or sailors, compulsory by tho state, counties and municipal corporations The measure applies to veterans of the CtvilSpanish-Amcrlcan and of the recent war- ht have achieved honor- able discharges. 'The bill provides that soldiers who have been maimed In action shall be given employment suitable to their physical condition and, in case any working force of men is cut down, -would be the last to be removed from the payrolls. Tax Limitation Repeal Proposed. Tho repeal of the 6 per cent tax limitation amendment adopted by the people at the general election of 1916, Is provided for in a Joint resolution ntroduced in the house just before adjournment by Brownell of Umatilla county. The resolution provides for the ap polntment of a committee of five mem bers of the house to prepare a measure for adoption by the legislature, and submission by it to the people at the noxt general election, of a constltu tional provision repealing the present per cent limitation amendment. Want Road Work Started. A Joint resolution Introduced In the house by Mr. Bean, calling upon the state highway commission to Imme diately start work on one or more units of highway work to provide em ployment for at least 1000 men was passed In both houses. This resolu tion provides that preference shall be given to returning soldiers and sailors, Mr. Bean also Introduced a Joint resolution calling upon congress to enact legislation which will remedy had conditions surrounding the re turning men, because of governmental inaction. This resolution calls atten tion to the fact that the Oregon legls lature has been compelled to appro priate $100,000 to grapple with a situa tion which should have been cared for by congressional action. Prevent Teaching Foreign Languages. Representative Dodd of Umatilla In troduced a bill in the house, making it unlawful for any board of school di rectors to permit the- teaching of any subject, other than foreign languages, In any of the public or private schools of the state except In the English lan guage. Any director permitting auch a thing to be done, or any teacher vio lating the terms of the act Is to be punished by a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $500 for the first offense, and not less than $260 nor more than $1000 for the second of fense, with Uie alternate punishment 0! 'mprlsonment for not less than 30 days nor more than one year in the county Jail. Market Commission It Proposed. Standardization of the sale of all farm and manufacturing products and furthering the market for Oregon goods is proposed In a bill Introduced by Senator Huston, of Multnomah county, providing for the creation of a state market commission. The bill provides that a market director, ap pointed by the governor, shall have supervisory control over the sale and marketing of all such commodities, to the end that Oregon products might find a wider market throughout the country. Land Settlement Act Introduced. Tho soldiers land settlement bill recommended to the various states by Secretary of the Interior Lane was introduced in the senate by Senator Eddy. It provides for the appoint ment of a soldiers' settlement board of three members and carries an ap propriation of $500,000 to meet the state's share of the expense of co operation with the United States. Briefly, the bill provides a plan whereby the state Is to furnish the land and the United States Is to fur nish the money for the development sf homes for soldiers. The soldiers will be given 40 years In which to pay for the land and 20 years in which to pay for the Improvements. Provision Is made that the governor iball appoint the chairman of the sol Hers' settlement board, who shall be ieslgnated as the soldiers' settlement ;ominlssloner and shall receive a sal- iry of $4000 a year. Legislative Brevities. Governor Wlthycombe's veto of sen- ite bill No. 242, of the 1917 session, proposing an Increase in the salaries f certain officials in Hood River ounty, was sustained by the senate. A bill to license real estate brokers was introduced In the house by Rep- esentative Gordon.
