THE STJXDAY OHEGONIAX. PORTLAND, DECEMBER 22, 1018. 13 DOS nn nurnnnnu 1UHIHL r run tviLiv ARE STILL -ADVANCED Wealth of Suggestive Material Received by Committee. GREAT STADIUM PROPOSED Utilization of One of Natural Am phitheaters Facing Portland Is Advocated. Oregonlans have not yet exhausted their stock of ideas as to the form'that should be taken by the memorial to Oregon's sons in service. A wealth of suggestive material is still pouring- in at the office of Frank J. Lonergan. secretary of the committee that will formulate the type of memorial. While the memorial hospital or memorial hall idea seems to be well in the lead in the mass of suggestions, many still are found to favor the highway and the arch, while new and varied suggestions still find their way to the committee. A meeting of the 15 members of the suggestion committee, which ia headed by Will Moore, col lector of customs, ia expected 'very Memorial Stadium Proposed. A memorial stadium In one of the natural amphitheaters of the hills facing Portland la among the fresh sugges tions made to the committee. A sketch showing the outlines of the proposed building accompanied the suggestion, which was made by E. S. Keynolds, cartoonist on The Oregonlan. "In this stadium, which would seat 50,000 persons, would be etaged open air games of the youth and annual games," writes Mr. Reynolds in sup port of his Idea. "The roof would be of glass and steel, supported by columns of marble. In this the veterans would hold their reunions, festivals and en campments. A part of the building could be made Into a museum. Separate niches for each county could be con structed." Triumphal Arch Wanted. An arch, representative of the spirit of triumph, with emblems and the alle gorical figure of Uncle Sam, would best commemorate the soldiers' mem ory, according to T. C. Tenneson. A highway leading from Portland to the point where the graves of the Ore gon soldiers are to be placed Is the Idea advanced by the auxiliary to. the Medi cal Corps of . the 162d Infantry, as out lined by Margaret Seabrook, secretary. Bordered with walnut trees, the nuts of which would be gathered by Boy Scouts and the proceeds used to main tain the roadway, the highway would represent Oregon enterprise. Financing of a steamship company, followed by presentation of a share of stock to each returning soldier, is the plan of S. P. Murdock. Change la Festival Advised. The citizens advisory budget commit tee indorses a plan which would change the Rose Festival into an Oregon-Americanization festival, representing the spirit of public Interest and achlve ment throughout the state. Health, housing, recreation. highways and schools would be represented at such an exposition. It is proposed. David F. Morrison, editorial writer on the Telegram, favors a memorial build ing. Serving the patriotic eentiment of the state, it should be used for the H. A. .R., Spanish War Veterans and other similar organizations, he says. Records of the state's share In the war, together with war relics, should he collected In the memorial building. he says. Of a classical and beautiful architecture, the building would have .four splendid facades, an ornamental arch and bronze panels naming each man who had made the euDreme sacri fice.

Annual Renewal and Approval of Attorney-General Are Suggested. SALEM, Or, Dee. 21. (Special.) All bonds of state officials should be written yearly; they should be re quired to have the written approval of the Attorney-General, and with the exception of the bonds of the Treas urer and Secretary of State should all be kept on file in the office of the Secretary of State. These are recommendations which will be included as a part of the forth coming biennial report of Secretary of State Olcott, which is now in the course of preparation. Referring to changes In the provi sions of the statutes relative to the bonds of state officials, Mr. Olcott will say in his report: "The statutes, in such cases as do not now provide, should be so amended as to require the filing of all official and other bonds with the Secretary of State. In, the. cases of a number of state officials and employes, where bonds are exacted for the faithful per formance of their official duties, no specific disposition of the bond author ized is directed by statute. "As the office of Secretary of State is a constitutional office and possesses the facilities for filing and safekeep ing important instruments of this na ture I would suggest that in all cases where noVso provided by existing laws it be made the repository of all such documents, except the bonds of the Secretary of State and the State Treas urer, which are by authority and direc tion of existing, statutes filed with the Governor."
