EMERGENCY BOARD TO
BE ASKED FUNDS FOR
FLAX PLANT FAILURE
Board of Control Decides to
Call Session in Order That
Deficit May Be Considered
Salem, Or., Aug. 30. With a deficit
of more than $10, 000 certain as a re
sult of flax operations at the state
prison, the board of control today de
cided to call the emegeney board in
session either Septembef 9 or 11, to
provide funds.
The legislature appropriated J50.003
for the experiment and Secretary
Goodin reported to the board that
there would be only about $6000 on
hand after paying the August bills,
and that from $15,000 to $1 S. 000' would
be required to pay farmers for their
flax straw. Besides the appropriation
of $50,000 the fund expended on flax
Includes receipts for tow, fibre and
flax sold.
As a considerable amount of money
will be required to pay for the retting
and manufacture of the flax, an
amount considerably In excess of
$10,000 will probably be necessary.
Olcott suggested that the board may
have gone loo far in contracting for
flax from farmers without having
funds to pay for it. but the governor
thought not.
An effort will he made before the
meeting of the emergency board to
get a definite idea-of how great the
deficit will be.

Palem, Or.. Aug. 30. Governor
Withy ombe ileclared at the meeting
of the board of control today thai
the kitchen of the state tuberculosis
institution is a "travesty." He in
sisted that the hospital should be re
modeled. The governor also said that the
feeble minded institution Ehould be
enlarged so as to accommodate lou
additional Inmates, there being a
waiting list of 40 at present. He crit
icized the chipped crockery in the
institution, saying it was unfit for
use, and suggested a change should
be made.

RE NVESTiGATION
OF PRISON AFFAIRS IS
ORDERED BY BOARD
Governor Objects Because He,
Will Not Name Citizen
Commission to Do Work.j
KAY AND OLCOTT AGREE
J&ecorda Will Be Open and All OthM
Source of Information Will Be
Made Available to ClUxeai.
Salem. Or., Aug. 30. The state board
of Control today passed a resolution
calling for a thorough Investigation of
the state prison. '
The resolution which was introduced
by State Treasurer Kay as an amend-
ment to one introduced last week by
Governor WIthycombe, was supported
by Secretary of State Olcott and op
posed by Governor WIthycombe. The
governor objected to It because It pro-'
vided for the appointment of the com-J
mission by the board of control. The
executive's resolution of last week had
provided for the appointment of the
commission by himself. Incidentally,
the governor rapped the new rule per-:
mining convicts to smoke cigarettes
and Kay defended it.
Resolution As Adopted.
The following is the resolution j
adopted: i
"Whereas, it is a well recognized j
fact that the buildings of our peniten- .
tiary are old and, in present condition '
will not permit the institution of a ,
modern system of penelogical work,
and,
"Whereas, it is advisable to have ;
some well prepared and up-to-da.o plan
for real constructive work, and the
mange necessary to place th same
into practical operation at the Oregon
state penitentiary, therefore be it ;
"Resolved, that a non-salariei om- j
mission be appointed by the "tate 1
board of control composed of three
citizens of the state to maie a .hor- j
ough survey of the said penitentiary j
ana report its findings and recommen
dations to the said board.
"Resolved, that for the purpose of
securing proper data said commission
be given access to all prison records
and papers, and be authorized and al
lowed at appropriate times to inter
view any officer, employe or inmate
of the institution.
"The problems upon which Informa
tion ard recommendations are es- '
pecially desired are:
Special Problems Up.
"1 Efficiency of administration
alons lints o! modern- penology
"2 The supervision of religious and
educational work.
"3 The parole board, parole of
ficer, their powers, duties and re
sponsibilities. "4 Changes advisable In rfeesent
buildings.
"5 Desirability of a new unit for
segregation of :irst offenders and es
tablishment of industrial work and in
dustrial education for them.
"6 The advisability of establish
ing the prison farther out into t!,e
country upon a larger tract of lan.1,
operated by prison labor, so as to
make the institution as near self sus- I
tainlng as possible. !
Resolved, That any expenses in- 1
curred by said commission, while in
performance of these duties, when ap
proved by board, shall be paid from 1
funds of Oregon state penitentiary."
Governor Has Objections. j
When Kay moved the adoption of:
his amendment to the governor s reso-
lution, the governor ileclared that Me
did not believe it was a good thing to
have the commission named by a di-
vided board. He asserted that he had
no desire to interfere with the present
administration of the prison and that
his sole object In introducing his and thirteenth amendments to the ron
resolution was to place the prison on ' stltution, he said, would prevent oper
modern and humanitarian lines. He , ation of such proposed laws,
suggested that If the board named ; "I do not doubt, however." said
the commission one man would have

third his own. While the prison is ; Jurisdiction to seize upon the contro

Control, the governor, as executive, ! railway workers, such, for instance, as
was held responsible by the people, j the Brotherhood of Engineers and the
Withycombe continued. The governor.
he said, was the only one having
power to grant paroles and pardons.
Both Kay and Olcott asserted that

ber should choose a member of tho

was not in far of having three fac-

"That will be the logical result if
the board names it," said the governor.
Question is Discussed.
Olcott said that Kay and he had
discussed the matter and had arrived
at the conclusion that the board should
name the commission.
The vote was then taken, Kay and
Olcott favoring the amended resolu
tion and Withycombe opposing it.

Kay said that in investigating the
prison last week it was found that
prisoners were cui.ieu up irom six 10
twelve hours for smoking cigarettes. I
Although there was a rule against it. j
they continued to smoke. Inasmuch as.
about r.O per cent of the people out-1
side the prison smoke cigarettes and
the convicts continued to break the.

changing of the rule so as to permit

until some future date and no action

that tears were running down his

pages of a recent letter and he read
as though the words were before his

nearly all intestinal trouble as wel.
as mifiny diseases ot tne vital oigui.,
are directly traceable to excessive
stomach acidity, commonly termed
sour stomach or heart burn which not
only irritates and Inflames the deli
cate lining of the stomach but may
often caue gastritis and dangero
stomach ulcers.
Neglect he says easily leads to a
chronic super-ac idlty, commonly mis
taken for indigestion and is the princi
pal cause for tLe indiscriminate swal
lowing of tne various so-called patent
digestive aids which bring only temp
orary and false relief.
In an acid condition of the stomach
no artificial digeslants whatever should
be employed, as these are likely to
merely pass the sour, buining acid or.
into the intestines, causing serious
trouble there. Instead tie recommend:;
the use of some simple, harmless anu
inexpensive antacid such as a ten
spoonful of biaurated magnesia, taken
with a little hot or cold water right

This simple remedy In Just a few

neutralizes or sweetens sll its soui

acidity and there will be no need for
medicine as all symptoms of indiges
tion will promptly cease. Sufferers
from acidity, sour stomach or indiges
tion should get a few ounces of the
pure bisurated magnesia from the!
druggist and give this treatment a
trial. In view, however, of the many
varieties of magnesia used for various
purposes, stomach sufferers should be
careful to get it only In the bisurated
form (either powder or tablets) and in
