DISCUSS PROPOSED' LAWS Oregon National Guard End9 Ses sions Held at Armory. The third annual convention of the Oregon National Guards was brought to a close last night with a celebration over a Christmas tree, given by the Third Infantry in honor of their 'out-of-town guests. The afternoon session was short, last ing only until 4 o'clock. The business be ftjfe the house was the choosing of three delegates to attend the Interstate Na tional Guard Association at Los Angeles in May; and the question of allowing the legislative committee full power the drafting and presentation of bills at the next legislature. The first matter was decided only after heated discussion as to the best manner in which to choose impartially, from their own midst, the best trio of officers to send to Los Angelea to make the choice and. after ten minutes' discussion. Colo nel McDoncll of the Third Infantry, Colo nel Yoren, of the Fourth Infantry, and Captain Welch, of Battery A, were se lected for the honor.

Assistant Surgeon, were chosen. Debate was general on the bills to bo presented to the next legislature and especially the armory appropriation measure. Many opinions were offered and the question discussed at length. It was finally decided to leave the entire matter in the hands of the legislative committee and also to authorize the committee to present any bills deemed expedient. Suggestions were made to the to the committee to draw up a bill to prevent employers from restraining em ployes from performing their duties in the National Guard and also to make it illegal for labor unions to interfere with their members as far as the National Guard Is concerned.
