allowed under the 6 per cent amend
ment. -
But It must be taker Into considera
tion that the committee decided to start
Its work on tho institutions which have
to be cared for and aa result the early
pruning of the budget has shown no
very material reductions. But a num
ber of the members of the ways and
means committee now have their bud
gets so marked that they show reduc
tions of between J500.00U and $600,000,
so they believe they see their way clear
to keeping within the amendment.
Many arguments continue to be heard
as to whether the amendment applies
to the Legislature, but an Informal poll
of the members of the Joint ways and
means committee indicates that every
member, whether they believe it writ
ten In the law or not, intends to see
that the appropriations remain within
those bounds.
Heavy Prune Requisite,
If appropriations continue to come In
as rapidly, in the next two weeks as
they have In the past two weeks, how
ever, the committee will have to work
overtime with the pruning shears.
The miscellaneous claims which so
far 'have been presented include re
quests for traveling expenses of dele
gates to . National conventions, claims
for rewards for arrest and also some
claims for auditing companies which
audited books in Clackamas, Marion
and Yamhill counties after the uniform
accounting system law was repealed in
1916. There still was some work to
be done in these counties after the ap
propriation for tne work was dropped
and these requests are In the nature
of deficiency claims.

ture are as follows:

The legislators will be met with au
tomobiles by the Eugene Chamber of
Commerce and taken on a tour of the
city. They will be taken In hand later
by a faculty committee and shown
through the university campus, where
the students will be engaged In their
regular pursuits. Outside of a ban
quet and a general good time for the
legislators there will be no big
demonstration, as It Is simply the de
sire of the administration to show the

exist, so that the legislators may fnlly
realize what actual appropriations are
needed.

-. Irrigation Code Introduced.
A new irrigation code has been in
troduced and it can be classed as an Im
portant, constructive measure. The
same Is true of the bill for regulation
of . trust companies, which has the
strong indorsement of tho superintend
ent of banks and many bankers. It was
Introduced In the Senate yesterday.
In the coming week, however, much
Important road legislation 'will make
its appearance. One such measure will
designate tho two main trunk high
ways of the state, one to be in Eastern
Oregon, the other in Western Oregon.
The new highway code also may be in
troduced. Another Important road measure
aoon to come in will contain a general
revision, aa worked out by a special
committee of District Attorneys, of the
present county road laws.
Many Measures TJnbn port ant.
Of all the 42 measures that - have
passed either or both houses to date
only one is of prime importance. This
Is the Bean bill, which has passed the
House, but still has to run the gaunt
let of the Senate. It provides for an
Issue of state bonds to match the
$1,800,000 of Federal road money that
will be available for Oregon in the
coming live years.
Several bills regulating motor ve
hicles and increasing the auto license
fees have come in, but none of them
is likely to get through as it stands.
The great majority of bills passed
nave Dten measures amending the pres
ent statutes in some minor particulars
or having only local significance.
Probably the most important of the
bills laid low oy indefinite postpone
ment waa the Brownell bill, in the
House, to repeal the Oregon-Washing-.

iSpecial.) a pronounced change In
the distribution of the county school
funds is provided in a bill introduced
in the House by Representative Forbes.
It proposes that one-half of the funds
in each district of every county be ap
portioned by the number of teachers
employed during the preceding school
year, and one-half on the average daily
attendance. -
Both these rules are subject to cer
tain qualifications. For instance, a
school year is arbitrarily fixed at eight
months. The apportionment is per
mitted to vary as the actual operation
of the school varies from this length of I
time, it is understood tnat tho meas
ure has the indorsement of nearly all
the County Superintendents of the
state.

SALEM. Or.. Jan. 20. (Special.)
Senator Hawley. of Polk County, said
that he plans to introduce a reso
tion in the Senate next week cal
ing upon the Commissioners of the
Panama-Pacific Exposition Commission
for Oregon to lay before the Legisla
ture a statement of their receipts and
disbursements for the Oregon exhibit
at that exposition. Senator Hawley was
a member of tne commission.
The law which appropriated $175,000
for Oregon's share in the exhibits there
had no provision for a report on the
expenditures. Senator Hawley said that
the Commission's report would show
an economical handling of the funds.
The Commission has between 16000 and
$7000 to turn back into the general
fund.

Fight Is Indicated on Teachers' Pen
sion Plan, Standard Health and
Other Proposed Extensions
of State Insurance.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or, Jan. 20,
(Special.) According to Information
received here the move to effect an
economy by removing the state-aid
feature from the Industrial Accident
Commission and thus save-something
over $225,000 for the state during the
next two years, will begin centering at
Salem during the next week1 and it Is
understood that every effort will be
directed to bring about this result
through legislation.
-Those who favor the plan expressed
themselves today as -desiring a simple
amendment to the present law which
would change the present distribution
of the financial burden and leave tne
remainder of the act as it is. with the
possible exception of other amendments
which have been suggested by the Com
mission itself.
' It is probable some such bill will
come in. before the Legislature next
week. It Is declared by the supporters
of the . plan that, the proposed amend
ment in no way Involves the question
of whether the state shall continue to
have a monopoly of the business, or
whether the insurance companies will
be allowed to compete. "
Object Is Outlined.
There Is no effort to fight the com
pensatlon act or the Commission. It Is
declared by the supporters of the pro
posed measure, but they state that the
ereneral taxpayers of the state, who
have no direct protection or benefit
from the fund, are paying many thou
sands of dollars yearly into the und
and assert that such would be unneces
sary if the lumber and logging lndya-
trv. wood saws, railroad construction.
structural steel work and other has-
arous occupations would pay the actual
cost of their losses.
A well-defined fight against the ex
tension of the principle of state Insur
ance In general is coming up. This
much was conveyed In a statement re
ceived here today from those that are
Interested In the move, and it is prob
able that the recently organized In
surance Federation of Oregon will have
an active hand In It.
Olson BUI te Be Attacked.
Among hills that will be objects of
attack xiU be Senator pie on' a pm pro
viding for the sale of annuities to per
sons, corporations and associations. It
is declared by those opposing it that
this would develop Into a full-fledged
life Insurance plan and would soon re
sult In the creation of an expensive
department. The state teachers re
tirement and pension system plan also 1
will be attacked on tne ground tnar. il
ls another life insurance plan In the
embryo.
. It Is pointed out by those -opposing
the measure that subdivision 1. section
S. provides that the state shall finance
the expenses of the retirement fund
board for two years, and subdivision 3,
of the same section, provides that the
pension fund shall consist of such
amounts as shall be appropriated by he
Legislative . Assembly from time to
time for the purpose of paying the pen
sions provided In the act.
The standard health Insurance bill.
If it appears, will also meet sharp op
position from the same sources. It Is
estimated by those who will oppose that
plan that should the law become ef
fective it would cost the state approxi
mately $600.000 a year. The fund for
benefits under the act would be divided
so that 40 per cent would be paid by
employers, 40 per cent by employes and
10 per cent by the state.
