SALEM, Or., Jan. 6. (Special.)
Oovernor oleott today expressed satis
faction with the outcome of the I'.eh
and same conference held yesterday,
at which a compromise' programme
was outlined, providing for a fish and
game commission of seven members.
three to represent the game interests.
three to represent commercial inter
ests and a seventh business man to
serve as arbiter. The governor ex
pressed the opinion that the com
promise plan might not bring the
beneficial results that would come un
der the two-commission programme,
but as a compromise he considered
It acceptable.
That a misunderstanding resulted
relative to the action of the confer
ence was indicated by Governor Ol
cott today. Following adjournment of
the meeting, members of the commit
tee called on the executive and asked
if he would sanction the compromise
bill for a joint commission of seven
members.
"Apparently there has been a mis
understanding as to the results of the
meeting of the fisheries and game
committees at the capitol yesterday,"
en id the governor.
"I advised that the compromise plan
proposed, in my mind, would not lead
to the same harmonious and beneficial
results that might be expected from
two entirely separate commissions.
At the same time I expressed pleas
ure at the outcome of the meeting,
showing, as it did, a tendency to com
promise and harmonize the different
interests involved, and took occasion
to express my appreciation of the
presence of the legislators and their
fair and open-minded attitude."
It is understood that the commit
tees have designated three members
to meet Sunday in Salem to draw the
compromise bill for presentation be
fore the special session of the legis
lature. WOOD' CLUB IS LAUNCHED
Marslifield Boosters of General
Form Nucleus of Organization.
MARSHFIELD, Or., Jan. 6. (Spe
cial.) General Leonard Wood will

the republican situation it was de
cided to have each man express his
choice. Seven of the men were for
General. Leonard Wood.
A declaration for General Wood
was circulated and 30 members were
obtained. The slogan adopted was
"Carry on with Wood."
LICENSE TIME EXTENDED
Autoists Have Until January 15
to Procure New Tags.
Automobilists who have not yet
obtained the 1920 automobile license
tags have until January 15 to get

made yesterday by Chief of Police
Jenkins.
Chief Jenkins said yesterday that
he had received word from the office
of the secretary of state to the effect
that the department was swamped by

that reason the date on which auto
mobile owners must have their license
tags was advanced from January 5 to
January IS.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 6. Three in
dictments against Thomas J. Mooney,
two against Israel Weinberg and two
against Mrs. Rena Mooney, wife of
Thomas J. Mooney. were dismissed
today by Superior Judge Michael

persons were killed by the explosion.
Attorney Maxwell McNutt, repre
senting Thomas Mooney, who now is
serving a life term in San Quentin
prison, following his conviction In
connection with the bomb murders,
opposed the dismissal of indictments
against Mooney. McNutt has en
deavored to bring Mooney to trial
again In the hope that he would be
acquitted.
Two indictments against Thomas
Mooney, three against Mrs. Rena
Mooney and three against Warren K.

still are pending In Judge Franklin

so that it now runs from Scio and
only a few. patrons were left for the

Directors of the Portland Chamber
of Commerce yesterday went on rec
ord as strongly recommending to the
members of the Oregon legislature
that legislation to correct the condi
tions that are depriving the schools
of Oregon of teachers be framed for
submission to the voters of the state
at the coming primary election.
Resolutions that were adopted were
ordered communicated to every local
chamber or commercial club in the
state to urge that every legitimate
means possible be employed to ac
quaint (he public with the pressing
need for action.
Information submitted to the cham
ber by State Superintendent Churchill
disclosed that there are now 140
teaching positions In the public
schools vacant and hundreds of school
children have therefore been deprived
of the chance to attend school. In a
number of counties the superintend
ents have been obliged to resort to
the' temporary expedient of issuing
teaching permits to boys and girls in
the high schools, housewives and
other untrained persons to the num
ber of 261 for substitute work, in or
der that the shortage might not be
further Increased.
Lower Standard Feared.
It appears to the directors of the
chamber that the standard of educa
tion in the state has been appreciably
lowered through the shortage and
overworking of teachers and through
the necessary adoption of expedients
to supply substitute teachers. They
also considered it apparent that the
standard would be further lowered
unless remedial measures were
promptly adopted.
It was further pointed out that the
future supply of properly trained
teachers is endangered by a steadily
decreasing interent in teaching as a
profession, illustrated by the fact that
the enrollment at the state normal
schools has fallen off 40 per cent. Un
less the emoluments of the work be
Increased sufficiently'to retain teach
ers now in service and make it at
tractive to aspirants. It is apparent
that the public schools of the state
may be expected to deteriorate.
That Oregon is one of the seven
states that is now failing to provide
educational funds from state revenue.
was pointed out in the resolutions
adopted. The old method of county
district taxation system. through
which unequal burdens are imposed
and unequal educational facilities af
forded, has been relegated in many
states.
Inadequate Pay I Cited.
The chamber found that the condi
tions existing are due to the fact that
school teachers of Oregon are inade
quately paid for their services; that
teachers in the elementary schools
who have qualified for such work by
taking two-year courses at the nor
mal schoQls, following a four-year
high-school course, are receiving In
some instances as low as $800 a year,
and that college teachers, qualified
by a four-year college or university
course are receiving not to exceed
$1050 a year in some Instances.
Owing to the higher wages paid in
other lines of endeavor and by schools
in other states, Oregon teachers are
being drawn elsewhere or diverted
into other fields of endeavor.
It was the conclusion of the busi
nessmen that the situation is one de
manding the immediate attention of
every public spirited citizen and a
constructive legislative programme
was therefore urged without delay as
the only method by which the condi
tions could be changed.
SCHOOL FINANCES PROBED
Centralia Examination Made Pre
liminary to Bond Issue.
CENTRALIA Wash., Jan. 6. (Spe
cial.) R. C. Watson, state accountant,
was here yesterday examining the
finances of the Centralia school dis
trict to ascertain the limit of bonds

school. . The last estimate, made in
August, was $50,000, but since that

And when a man gets into a

then he begins to grow "old".
This doesn't necessarily
mean, however, that he has
reached an advanced age.
Thousands upon thousands of
people begin to break down,
their vital organs giving evi
