EXALTED RULER TO VISIT
SALEM, Or., Aug. 18. (Special.)
Settlement of all industrial disputes
and regulation of industries by three
Judges to be appointed by the gov
ernor Is the purpose of a bill which
will be prepared by J. M. Devers, at
torney for the state highway depart
ment, and presented for considera
tion of the state legislature at its
next session in January. The judges.
according to Mr. Dever's proposed
measure, will constitute a court of
industrial relations, and the appoint
ment of the personnel must be made
with the advice and consent of the
senate.
Although the proposed bill will be
copied to tome extent from the in
dustrial court law enacted in Kansas
at the instigation of Governor Allen,
that feature of the measure provid
ing Tor the abolishment of the public
service commission probably will not
be followed. It is likely, however,
that if enacted the bill wjll merge
the affairs of the present public serv
ice commission with the tribunal of
industrial relations to avoid any
duplication of effort.
Employment Affected Listed.
The bill will provide that the op
eration of the following-named em
ployments. Industries, public utilities
and common carriers will be subject
to regulation by the state and under
the jurisdiction of the proposed court
of industrial relations:
Manufacture or preparation of food
products whereby, in any stage of
the process, substances arc being con
verted, either partially or wholly,
from their natural state to a condi
tion to be used as food for human
bein.zs.
Manufacture of clothing and all
manner of wearing apparel in com
mon use by the people of this state
whereby, in any stage of process,
natural products are being converted,
either partially or wholly, from their
natural state to a condition to be
used as such clothing and wearing
apparel.
Mining or production of any sub
stance or material in common use as
fuel either for domestic, manufac
turing or transportation purposes.
Transportation of all food products
and articles or substances entering
into wearing apparel, or fuel, from
the place where produced to the place
of manufacture or consumption.
Discretionary Power Vested.
The bill will provide that in case
of a controversy arising between em
ployers and workers, or between
groups or crafts of workers engaged
in industries under the jurisdiction
of the court, the tribunal may, in
the event It believes the controversy
is likely to endanger the efficiency
of the industries, effect the transpor
tation and production of necessaries
of life, or threaten the public health,
aummnn before it all necessary wit
nesses and make temporary findings
rd nrdrrs ai will insure puDiic peace
and preserve the status of all parties
ii.it. Authority also will be
given the court to Investigate wages
and labor conditions. After com
pleting Us investigation the- court
shall serve upon all parties interested
in the controversy its findings, stat
ing specifically the terms and condi
tions upon which industry, employ
ment, utility or common carrier
should be thereafter conducted inso
far as the matters determined by the
court are concerned.
The court, under the proposed
measure, is authorized to order such
changes, if any, as are necessary to
be made in and about the conduct of
the industry, in the matters of work
ing and living conditions, hours of
labor, rules and practices and a rea
sonable minimum wage, or standard
of wages, to conform to the findings
of the court in such matters.

Jackson County Expected to Lose

$60,000 in Failure.
MBDFORD, Or., Aug. 18. (Spe
cial.) The work of straightening
out entanglements of the defunct
Bank of Jacksonville, the president
of which, W. H. Johnson, is now in
the county jail in default of $50,000
bond, is being pushed as fast as pos
sible by State Banking Superintend

Hooper and a force of expert ac
countants.
District Attorney Roberts stated
today that it would, be at least a

be made that Superintendent Ben

as to assets and liabilities.
According to rumors, other persons
besides President Johnson will be in

obtainable Jackson county will lose
about S100.000 and the losses of in
dividual depositors will not be less
than $60,000. It Is known that sev
eral prominent county officials are
among individual losers through the

He declared, however, that the
question of material aid on any broad
scale was a political one.
'We cannot go to the relief even
of Poland," he said, "provided the
view prevails that we have no con
cern with anything beyond ou
national borders. The question, you
see, In its larger and truer aspect is
a political question."
Mr. Colby said there were those
who opposed any intervention "that
calis on us for active effort," and
who had "flouted and rejected the
enlightened machinery devised in
conjunction with the treaty of Ver
sailles to cope with such conditions
as now unhappily exist."
While the executive arm of the
government has "some measure of
initiative and of action," he continued,
"you must look to the true sources of
power in this country."
"In the final analysis," he declared,
"it is public opinion. In the less re
mote view, it is your elected members
cf congress. In a very important
sense, it is the political party with
which you may be affiliated."

Is Your Skin Ablaze
With Fiery Itchings?
Don't Continue to Suffer Because of
Wrong; Treatment.
At last science has determined the
I real source of all skin diseases, and
with this enlightenment comes the
reason why the prevailing treatment
heretofore used has proven such a
complete failure. It has been proven
that Impurities In the blood cause
millions of tiny disease germs to set
up their attack on the surface of the
skin, and in the form of pimples,
I boils, scaly eruptions and itchy, burn
ing irritations, begin their disfigur
ing and destructive work.
Being In the blood, these disease
germs can be reached only through
i tho blood, and local applications have
no effect - whatever. That Is why
salves, ointments, lotions, washes and
other remedies applied to the skin can
do no more than give merely tempo
rary relief. Soon the fiery itching
breaks out again, for such treatment
cannot reach the source of the trou
ble. If you want genuine relief from the
tortures of skin diseases, lose no time
in discarding all local remedies and
begin taking S. S. S. today, and you
will be delighted with the results.
Tou can get S. S. S. at any drug
store, and if you write to our physi
cian he will gladly give you full In
structions about your own case. Ad
