BIOLOGIST MOVE LAUDED coming tiresome and Is being carried on against his personal wishes was the sentiment expressed last night by William L. Finley, who was deposed as state biologist by the fish and game commission. Mr. Finley declared that he wanted to devote his time to his work and his books, and that his only interest is that the bird work and outdoor scientific work be continued as in the past. Resolutions protesting against the dismissal were adopted at the weekly meeting of the Audubon society at the central library last night.

POETLAND, DEPQRTATIL m "WASHINGTON1, Dee. 20. The immi gration committee's bill providing for the deportation of all aliens affiliated with anarchistic organizations was passed today by the house. The vote was unanimous. Investigation by the foreign rela tions committee into the activities of Russian propagandists in this country was ordered late today by the senate, which. adopted a resolution by Senator Kenyon, republican of Iowa, provid ing for such an inquiry. Urging passage of the bill to de port alien members advocating over throw of the government. Represen tative Johnson, republican of Wash ington, chairman of the house immi gration committee, declared In the house that all foreigners coming to the United States, "in the future must come only on probation." His state ment indicated that later an effort would he made to pass legislation for the probationary entry of foreigners. Unruly Uinti Mast Co. "The citizens of the United States are through with being told by alien revolutionists, communists and an archists who are within our borders by our courtesy and by our grace, how to run our government," declared Mr. Johnson. "Free press in the United States Is ours, not theirs: free speech is ours, not theirs; and they have gone just as far as we can let them go toward ruining our most precious rights. They have been guests in our house. They have mis behaved most woefully. They are welcome no longer and they must go. And those who come from foreign shores in the future must come only on probation." Explaining the bill. Mr. Johnson said that it enlarges the deportation causes to include aliens who print, circulate, edit, display or distribute vicious literature, who are members of organizations that Issue revolu tionary publications, or 'those who financially aid such propaganda. He predicted that a bill penalizing Amer ican born persons who commit simi lar acts would soon be presented to - the house by its Judiciary committee. Publications Are Shows.

The. rtm.rf. have been withheld since last August to give the government an opportu- 1 nlty to reduce the cost of living. The brotherhood. officers argue that the battle against the high cost of living has been a failure and that the only way to meet It is with wage increases. These demands will pre sent a situation more serious than any with whieh congress and the railroad administration have grappled recently, because- the revenues of the roads have juBt recently begun to catch up with expenditures, which means that the whole question will be thrown back again upon the presi dent and congress. Lawmakers Now Ilnay. Few congresses have ever labored more industriously in the first four weeks of a session than the one which adjourned for the holidays today. The senate accomplished a noteworthy feat In passing the railroad bill In that period, and the house his hardly lost a moment.

There have been few party votes on any measure, The holiday adjournment 6f con gresa does not signify an adiourn. ment of politics.

The Underwood forces are try ing to get one or two back, which, with the help of Carter Glass, secre tary of the treasury, who comes to the senate on the first of the year, they say will elect the Alabaman.

In the death of Mrs. Mary Ellis Johns, wife of Jus tice Johns, of the Oregon su preme court, which occurred here December 2, this commu nity feels a personal loss.
