Attorney General Follows the
Custom in View of Un
certainty of Law,
EUGENE WANTS NEW
REGIONAL BANK HERE
Promoters of a new noiseless type
writer contend that Its loudest sound Is
that made by the Impact of an opera
tor's fingers on the keys.
Eugene, Or., Dee. 80. The Eugene
Commercial club has sent a telegram to
Secretary of the Interior McAdoo at
Washington, D. C, urging that a re
gional bank, under the new currency
law, be established In Portland. Presl
dent Goodrich, in writing to the secre
tary, pointed out that Portland is the
logical center of the Pacific northwest,
and that the city will serve a larger
territory than any other city In this
part of the country. He said that bank
ers In this part of the state feel that
the location of the reserve bank farther
norths than Portland ..would serve them
no more conveniently than a bank at
San Francisco.
& (Silem Bureau of The Journal.)
Salem, Or., Dec. 80. Attorney Gen
eral Crawford today advised Stacy W.
Russell, county clerk of Lane county, to
close his registration books May 1,
which is 15 days before the date of
the primary election, and open them
again Immediately after the election.
Conflicts in the law, following the
decision of the supreme court declaring
the 1913 permanent registration law to
be unconstitutional, made it uncertain
as to when the registration books could
be closed. The existing law says the
books shall be kept open until the close
of business May 16. which is primary
election day. This would give the county
clerks no time in which to prepare the
oooks and deliver them to the election
officials for use on election day.
Some time ago when Governor West
was being urged to call a special ses
sion of the legislature to remedy the
situation, the governor declared that
the use of "horse sense" was all that
would be needed to straighten out the
tangle. He advised the clerks to close
the registration books 15 days before
election as has been the custom.
"The act fixing the primary election
on May 15 was in harmony with the
new registration law, held by the su
preme court to. be unconstitutional,"
said the attorney general. "The old
laws repealed by the new registration
law were reinstated by the supreme
court's decision and require the regis
tration books to be open until May 15,
which Is primary election day, making
a conflict Section 3460 provides that
whenever a matter is left Indefinite or
lamblguous theiL the. uaual custom
I should be followed, and in view or this
Fthe registration books should be closed
May 1 and be opened again as soon
after the primary election as possible."

itely by Saturday whether he will be

PROFESSOR
Mi
"COAL" IS ONLY ROCK
Prospectors, However, De
dare Product Burns Like
the Real Thing,
(Special to The Journal.)
Roseburg, Or., Dec. 30. That the ex
tensive deposit of supposed anthracite
coal which covers about 8009 acres and
was recently filed upon by 20 men, Is
not coal but a "worthless volcanic lava"
or "volcanic glass," is the assertion of
Professor Ira A. Williams, of the Ore
gon bureau of mines and geology, in
a lengthy report made to the Roseburg
Commerolal club.
Professor Williams twice visited this
reported tig' coal discovery, which Is
located on the North Umpqua river
above Glide. He believes the filings
were made in good faith, but his con
clusion is that the time, energy and
money being spent to develop the claims
there Is being wasted.
The men working there declare a por
tion of the product is coal, and will
burn.
