BILL TO PROTECT
CHILD IS PASSED
Senate Approves Measure
After Safeguards Against
Abuse Are Provided.
MOTHER MUST HAVE PROOF
6'raduated Scale for Support of
Illegitimate Offspring Is Fea
i turo After Conviction Before
Circuit Court Alien Bill In.
STAT 13 CAPITOL. Salem, Or., Jan.
(Special.) After being amended
to a status that several Senators de
clared made it "perfectly safe," Senator
Olson's bill to require fathers of il
legitimate cnildren to support and
maintain them was passed by the Sen
He today.
One of the amendments provided
that no man can be convicted of being
the father of an illegitimate child on
the uncorroborated testimony of its
mother.
Almost every Senator remarked at
some time during the debate that he
favored the principle of the bill, but
these same Senators submitted amend
ments to it about as fast as they could
Bet up.
In its original form. Senator Qlson
aid his bill was almost an exact model
of the Wisconsin law, which has been
In successful operation many years.
Freedom May Be Gained by Pay.
Summed up briefly, the Olson bill
provides for an examination, before a
magistrate, of a man accused of being
the father of an illegitimate child.
If he acknowledges his parenthood, or
is proved guilty, he may pay the mother
a sum agreed to by her and approved
by the judge of the Juvenile Court, in
full satisfaction, and shall be dis
charged. If no such agreement is made, the
alleged father may be tried before the
Circuit Court. If found guilty, he may
be required by the court to pay from
tlOO to 350 a year for support of
the child for the first two years', and
$160 to $500 for each year thereafter
until the child is 14 years old.
If the mother declines to take action,
ny public officer- may make com
plaint and bring the alleged father to
trial. The law gives the illegitimate
child the same right of inheritance
from the father it now has from the
mother.
State Aid Would Be Cut Out.
Senator La Follett introduced a bill
today to eliminate the present state-aid
provision from the workmen's compen
sation act.
Under his proposed measure employ
ers and employes would pay, in addi
tion to their present assessments, the
one-seventh part cow contributed by
the state.
"I can see no reason." commented
Senator La Follett, "why the state
should help pay the accident insur
ance premiums of the employers, for
that is what it amounts to. My amend
ment is not in any degree radical, but
merely makes Oregon compensation
law conform to laws in ?2 other states
in which there is no state aid.
"In the last six months the share
paid by the state into the industrial ac
cident fund totaled $70,000."
Rest Bill Appears.
The one-day-rest-in-seven bill, pre
pared by Dr. G. L. Tufts, made its ap
pearance today. It prohibits tne em
ployment of any person more than six
days in any seven. The bill contains
no Sunday-closing provision, and, ac
cording to Dr. Tufts, the one day of
rest may be any day of the week.
A radical bill introduced by Orton
prohibits employment of aliens in the
public service, or on any public works,
by the state, or by any county, city,
School or other district, or by con
tractors working for them.
Violation would be punishable by
fine of as high as $200. It would be
a similarly punishable offense for any
official even to vote to employ aliens.
Loan Superintendent Proposed.
Containing many features of the
Phanks rural credit bill, a bill intro
duced by Senator Barrett for the ag
ricultural and forestry committee to
make effective the rural credits amend
ment, provider, like the Shanks bill,
for a superintendent of loans at $24 00
salary to supervise making of all loans,
sale of bonds and collection of Interest.
The following bills were passed by
the Senate today:
8 B. 85. by Eddy Declaring school di
rectors of districts of the first class sub
Sect to recall.
H B 22. by Mueller Amending" law relating-
to stock running at large, to include

The following bill was withdrawn:

defects, errors and omissions in abstracts, to

WOMEN FIGHT BILL
Workers Say 48-Holir
Would Be Unfair.
Law
OVERWORK NOW DENIED
Loss of Places Expected If Meas
ure Is Passed and Those Who
Are Not Earning Own Way
Are Criticised for Support.
A vigorous protest has been raised
against the inclusion of certain office
work in the schedule of employment
in the proposed 48-hotir law for wom
en, S. B. 78, by a number of business
women of this city. Twenty-eight
women, all holding responsible po
sitions and whose average term of
service is six years, have formulated
their reasons why they believe it to be
impossible to restrict certain kinds of
office work to a certain number of
hours.
Here are the reasons:
"Office work cannot be done by the
clock. We cite, for Instance, Legal
work, which often must be rushed
through, requiring long hours for sev
eral days in succession; bookkeeping
and statistical work which requires
long hours over a period of two or
three weeks at certain times of the
year; some lines of industry, such as
fuel, where the year's work is mostly
crowded into a few months.
Jobs Not Lost In OS Season.
"It Is not practical to engage extra
help for such rush periods. Also, these
rush periods are always followed by
slack times, during which the work Is
light, but the employe Is carried along
on full salary. It is not the tendency
of employers in general to be unjust
or unfair in hours of employment or
quantity of work expected.
"While this bill, if enacted, would
probably not adversely affect inferior
positions which carry little responsi
bility, we believe It is unjust to legis
late privileges to the less capable girls
who are usually only employed tem
porarily, to the detriment of the busi
ness woman who prefers to be on a
basis of equal compensation for equal
service.
"We hold that the law would be un
fair and unnecessary class legislation,
for the reasons that the usual office
hours are not detrimental to physical
well-being, and that It would effectual
ly bar women from holding respon
sible office positions, which proved to
be the case to a marked degree in Cali
fornia when a similar law was en
acted. Non-Workers Criticised.
"Investigation will show that maximum-hour
laws for women are being
fostered by women and others not
themselves engaged in or personally
interested in office work, and that they
are opposed by practically all compe
tent bmsiness office women."

INTEREST RATE BOTHERS
SCHOOL LOANS MAY BE AFFECTED
BY RURAL CREDITS MONEY.
Land Board May Ask Right to Change
Rate So That Placing; of Both

SALEM. Or.. Jan. 24. (Special.) It
is 'understood that a majority of the
members of the State Land Board. Gov
ernor Withycombe and State Treasurer
Kay. will support a measure giving
the Board discretionary power to
change the amount of interest charged
on school fund loans to any rate not
in excess of 6 per cent or below 5
per cent. The present rate is 6 per
cent. The majority members of the
Board assume that with rural credits
money to be available in a compara
tively short time at 5 per cent school
fund loans might go begging and that
by passage of the bill the Board would
be fortified against possible con
tingencies.
Secretary Olcott, It is understood,
will not actively oppose the measure,
but will not join In with the other
members in supporting it. He takes
the attitude that when the interest on

rather than to provide a sliding scale
of interest in the discretion of the
Board. He says that no such step
should be taken, however, until the
rural credits amendment is in operation
and it is known definitely that 5 per
cent loans will operate against the 6
per cent loans allowed on the school
fund. He also believes that a sliding
scale might operate to discriminate
somewhat in event loans have been
reduced to 5 per cent, and money
should tighten and It would be neces
sary to return to the 6 per cent basis.
Then, he says, some people would be
receiving money at 5 per cent and some
at 6 per cent.

SALEM, Or.. Jan. 24. (Special.) The
special committee of the joint ways
and means committee named to Inves
tigate the feasibility of transferring
the Industrial School for Girls from Sa

land probably will be able to report
next week.
The scheme had its inception in the
mind of Representative Ashley, and he
was closely seconded by Representative
Childs, who is chairman of the com
mittee.
The Industrial School for Girls has
asked for new buildings in the budget
and the School for Feeble-Minded also
has requested money for permanent lm
provements In the way of new build
ings.
"The state has at Ashland, which I
believe the most logical place for the
establishment of the school, a $30,000
school building and two large dor
mitories,' said Representative Ashley.
"These dormitories are fully equipped,
or nearly so, and to transfer the ac
tivities of the school from Salem to
Ashland could be done at a nominal
expense."

OLYMPIA, Wash.. Jan. 24. (Special.)
Higher education complications in
both houses of the Legislature are
soaring in circles tonight, after a day
of intense lobby activity, in the course
of which Washington State College
supporters announced successively re
pudiatlons of the Educational Survey
Commission's report by W. J. Sutton, of
Spokane; A. II. Imus. of Cowlitz, and
Charles Timblln, of Spokane. As State
Senator In 1915, Sutton was appointed
chairman of the Commission. Imus,
also a former Senator, is a Commis
sioner, and Timblln is one of the Com
mlssioners from the House.
This defection divides the Commls
sion squarely on the report It submit'
ted this session. Senator E. E. Boner,
of Grays Harbor; Representatives Vic

of Whatcom, still supporting the find

over wblch the present storm is raging.
Experts who served the Commission
In making a state survey were Dr.
Samuel P. Capen, specialist in higher
education, and Dr. Harold Eoght. SDe
ciallst in normal work, both of the
United States Bureau . of Education,
with whom was, associated Dr. Alex
ander Inglis, professor of education at
Harvard.
Imua Says Experts Bungled.
In his. letter recalling the former
assent- he gave to"- the survey report.
lormer senator Jmus says: The ex
perts attempted something which they
couia not ao. They bungled. The Com
mission naturally thought it could de-
pena on experts' data which the Core
mission was not given time to check.
Additional charges that the student
cost of neither the University nor state
Cortege has been computed by the ex
perts in accordance with the method
outlined by them and that the standard
of comparison "has been arrosslv mis
calculated to the great detriment of
trie tetate College," are made by the
Lowmz (.ounty memoer, who there'
upon designates the report as unfit to
De used as a basis for legislation In
volving either Institution.
Chairman Sutton's written oblectlons
to the report have not yet been re
ceived at Olympia. but It is understood
his grounds will be similar to thoBO
oirered by Imus. Too hurried and In
adequate consideration of the experts'
findings by the Commission Is the prin
cipal reason given by Commissioner
iimoiin lor his change of heart.
Dr. Capen's Recall to Be Asked.
As an offset to this report. Mr. Zed
nick, secretary of the Commission, at
tomorrow night's joint committee meet
ing will ask the Legislature to request
ur. capen to come to Olympia to an
ewer the charges of Inaccuracy and fa
voritism made against him and his
Eastern colleagues. Dr. Capen is now
In Arizona and is willing to come. It
is understood, if invited by the Legis
lature. On the other hand, charges of bad
faith are made by university adherents
against President O. E. Holland, who
claim that he agreed to the Commis
sion report before it was submitted to
the Legislature. President Henry 8us
zallo. of the University, has agreed to
address the joint committee meeting
mursaay evening, out President Hol
land will not attend, it is understood
here, although Stated-College interests
win not De neglected before the com
mlttee in consequence.
Advocates of home rule for cities
toaay won a preliminary in the Senate
of a coming fight against corporation
control of public utilities under Public
Service Commission supervision. The
question came up over a small bill de
signed to permit the town of Bremerton
to sell water from Its municipal plant
to the Navy-yard and adjoining com
munities. ,
Senator Nichols moved an amendment
to include all cities which would u
thorize commercial business In light,
power and gas outside of first-class
city boundaries by municipal plants
in competition with private comsanles
an enlargement especially desirable to
home rule advocates of Seattle and
xacoma.
The amendment was adopted by a
voie or j: to 1 1, Dut re-conslderatlon
was moved by three Senators and the
issue wnicn comes up at 2 P. M. to
morrow for further consideration, will
afford a test of strength for the home
rulers, whose main point is to curtail
public service commission jurisdiction
over first-class cities of the state.
Representative George McCoy, of
Clarke, is lining up support in this ses
sion to relieve Clarke County of the
Dona issue of SoOO.000 assumed by the
county to help build the Columbia
Kiver bridge at Vancouver. Multnomah
County, Oregon, contributed $750,000 to
the Dridge cost, and expended 500.000
In building a southern approach. Clarke
County was bonded on a plan of making
i"e cringe repay tne amount by the
collection or tons.
Toll 'Abolishment fa View.
The state cannot take over the in
debtedness on a toll basis, but it is
believed a solution can be worked out
whereby tolls can be abolished in not
more than four years. Representative
McCoy believes the proposition can be
favorably presented, and the Governor's
former objections overcome before the
present Legislature adjourns.
Among the House bills introduced to
day Is one to increase the salary of
the State Penitentiary warden at
Walla Walla to $3000 a year. Joint
military bills permitting Pierce County
to assume $2,000,000 indebtedness for
the Federal Army maneuver site of
70,000 acres at American Lake, and
another authorizing any county to buy

ernment, will come before tha House

STATE CAPITOL. alem. Or., Jan. 24.
(Special.) A serious split has devel
oped in the House committee on fish
eries over the proposed regulation of
commercial fishing at the mouth of the
Rogue River.
A majority of the committee, consist
ing of Representatives Belland, Thom
as, Anderson, Sweeney and Tlchenor, is
In favor of closing the mouth of the
river to set nets and Belnes in opposl
tion to the wishes of Roderick Macleay,
who operates a big cannery there.
Representatives Callan and Mann
have refused to Join the other members.
Committee Majority 'Acta.
The majority members have prepared
a bill in accordance with their views
which was Introduced In the House this
afternoon. It provides for the complete
elimination of set nets and seines in
the entire river and for no fishing at
all west of Doyles Rock, about 1500
feet from the beach.
"Who is the author of that bill?" de
manded Representative Callan when the
bill was read by the clerk.
"The majority of the committee -on
fisheries," explained Speaker Stanfleld.
"Why, the committee has had no
meeting, protested Callan.
"But a majority of us got together
and decided to introduce the bill," as
serted Chairman Belland.
Protection of Stream la Aim.
The bill as introduced would act as a
substitute for a number of pending
bills, including one by Thomas and two
by Tlchenor, all said to be aimed dl
rectly at the Macleay interests. Those
three bills will be withdrawn.
' The new bill will meet the demands
of the upper river fishermen In Jackson
and Josephine counties who have been
complaining that the commercial op
erations at the rivers mouth have de
stroyed the steelheads. and virtually
ruined the Rogue as a sportsmen's
stream. ,
The whole subject was threshed, out
before the fisheries . committee last
night. Roderick Macleay vigorously op
posed all attempts to close the stream
to his operations.
The committee did not act at the
meeting, but this morning four of them
got together, prepared the new bill
and signed the following agreement.
wnicn was appended to It:
Committee ta Meet Today.
"We are willing that the attached
should be reported as a committee sub
stitute report on the three Rogue River
bills considered last night."
It is signed by Belland, Thomas. An
derson and Sweeney. While Tlchenor
did not sign the agreement, he has
given his verbal assurance that he will
stand by the other members. He says
that he preferred to have his own bill
go before the House.
The fisheries committee will bold an
Informal meeting tomorrow morning.
A favorable report on their new bill
will be mere formality.
If Callan and Mann propose to make
a fight against it, they win have to do
it on the floor of the House.
