THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 25, 1913. EXTRA SESSION TO CONVENE APRIL 1 LISTER VETOES BIG FAST COTTAGE GROVE GIRLS' TEAM HAS DIFFICULTY FINDING OPPONENTS. , ilinrafiile Wilson Sets Date for Next Meeting of Congress-Tariff Bills Will Be Ready. Washington Governor's Act Shatters Plans of Roads Committees. toot Lraif WAY MEASURE Y I) BITTER FIGHT EXPECTED Olynipla Session May See Executive Overridden as Planned Campaign In Both Houses Is Outlined to Defeat Veto. OL.YMPIA. Wash, Feb. 24. (Spe cial.) The opening gun in what la ex pected to be the biggest fight of the session of the Washington Legislature was Bred today by Governor Lister when he vetoed the bill passed by the House and Senate last week providing 11.000,000 annual Increase In the stale highway fund, and announced that he stands unalterably opposed to the bill increasing the permanent highway fund from $1,000,000 to t2.500.00U a year, which has passed the House. No sooner had the veto message been sent In than the backers of the road measures began to muster their forces for the return fire. A vigorous at tempt is to be made to overrule the wishes of the Governor and force through both bills over his veto, in charge of the fight In the House will - be L. D. McArdle. of Jefferson County, and v In the Senate, Senator Ralph Nichols, of King County. The veto shatters the plans of the roads and bridges committees In both houses. CompromlM in Slaking. While the forces are being organized to override the Governor, another fac tion is at work trying to arrange a compromise of the whole proposition. No figures have been decided upon, but they probably will be beyond the fig ures set forth by the Governor. Democrats are busy trying to muster up strength enough to sustain the Governor all the way through. Re publicans for the most part are lining up for the road programme as it was before the Governor got at it. while the Progressives are trying to figure out a compromise plan. The Governor, in his veto message, declares himself to be in favar of good roads and In favor of an Increased levy. He places his limit of Increase at 1500,000 for the state highway fund and a like amount for the permanent highway fund. Both houses of the Legislature passed the bill for an In crease of $1,000,000 In the state fund by a strong vote, and the House passed a bin providing $1,500,000 Increase for the permanent fund, or a total of $2,500,000 In all, even by a stronger vote. The Governor cuts the total amount to $V,000.000. Severe reaaltiea Provided. In passing a bill providing the ma chinery for the Initiative and referen dum adopted by the people at the last election the House today made a spe cial feature of a provision prohibiting the circulation of petitions by paid so licitors or circulators. Severe penalties are provided for the violation of this ,' feature of the system. Another part of the plan as adoptetd provides for a thorough check of the signatures on petitions to ascertain their validity, the check to be made by the registration, officers of each county and by the Sec retary of State. The Attorney-General, the bill pro vides, shall draw up all the bills to be placed on the ballot, and shall pre pare a summary in not more than 100 words. The changes were made by the, committee on elections and were pre sented to the House as "Improvements over the system in force In Oregon." The bill went through with only one dissenting vote, that of Foster, of King County. It was ordered transmitted Immediately to the Senate, The Senate, running at full speed, today passed atz bills In less than four hours. The measures put through with only scattered opposition Include bills permitting the transfer of territory from one school district to another for the benefit of high achoola: a bill in creasing the tax limit In second and third-class cities from 10 to 15 mills; a bill amending the horticultural code; a bill permitting counties to make levies to pay off previously-contracted Indebtedness, and a bill permitting the condemnation of private property for private way a of neceasity. Following a trip to Spokane, Senator Hutchinson secured the required two thirds consent to introduce a bill re quiring railroad companies to furnish sanitary drinking cups to passengers. The bill was occasioned by the experi ence of a woman and a baby on Hutch inson's train, who were refused a drink of water because they had no cup and no money with which to purchase one.

COMMITTEE PLANS FRAMED Income Tax Bill May Be Introduced Early Currency Reform Likely . to Be Taken Up Before Long If Wilson So Desires. WASHINGTON, Feb. 24. President elect Wilson sent word today to Wash ington that the extra session of Con gress would be convened Tuesday, Apri 1. This .extra session will find a num ber of tariff bills ready for its imme diate consideration and other general policies mapped out for the new Ad ministration. The date received gen eral approval in Congress. The letter from Democratic Leader Underwood, upon i which Mr. WllBon based bis decision to convene the ses sion April 1, was sent after members of the ways and means committee had agreed that it would be possible to per fect several of the tariff bills by that time. Members of the committee pre dicted today that those measures would consume less than a month In passing the House and that there would be no marked division of opinion in the com mittee over the preparation of any of the bills. Committees to Be Framed. - The caucus of Democratic House members March 6 is expected to con firm to serve again all of the holdover Democrats now on the ways and means committee and to fill the Democratic vacancies caused by the retirement of Senator-elect James and Representa tive Randall, of Texas, and Representa tive Brantley, of Georgia. The work thus far done by the committee, will be reviewed by the new committee and the bills prepared in detail for submission to a full Democratic caucus immedi ately after the convening of Congress. An income tax bill is being prepared by Representative Hull, of Tennessee, and probably will be one of the early measures introduced in the House. Whether currency reform' will be taken up remains a question upon which members of both houses are in doubt, but it is believed that President elect Wilson and the Democratic man agers of the new Congress will let it be known at the outset that they want the currtency problem taken up as soon as it is possible to agree upon a sys tem of currency reform. If the com mittees that take up the subject can perfect the new legislation before the extra session finishes with the tariff, it is expected It will be taken up at once.
