Acquiescence
, The Oregon public service commis
sion' baa declined to coorerate. with
the Washington sUte public service
commission in a moVe to have the
Sims bill, now before, congress, amen
ded to restore to 'state commissions
and the Interstate comerce commis
sion, ; power I to 'regulate valroads
rates, also to restore to the commis
sion "other necessary powers." j -
Chairman Miller of the Oregon
commission declared tkat the Is op
posed to lntefferlngRwlth the gov
ernment's war-program1 in any man
ner regardless- of how dlctovial Di
rector General MeAdoo's power may
become. It is his opinion, however,
tbat legislation should automatically
lestore the commissions present pow
ers with the close of the war. '
A telegram from .the Washington
commission said that while power to
regulate, service should undoubted
ly remain with the director only, the
Sims bill, giving the government full
control of the railroads, should be
amended to restore to the commis
sions the ! full rate making power.
"It is erlo.us," said the message,
"and quick action is necessary, as
the hearing' before committee will
probably close early next week.
The message said further that the
carriers would try to limit such sn
amendment to the' interstate com
merce commission.
The Oregon commission dispatched
messages to the Washington commis
sion, to O. O. Calderhead. a repre
sentative of that commission who is
now lnr Washington, 'D. C, and to
Senators McNary and Chamberlain as
follows: - ' . : : -
'Think director general should not
be hampered in policies of controll
ing railroads, nor should advantage
be taken of situation to enact: per
manent regulatory legislation. Op
posed to legislation limiting state
regulation . after the war.'! -
Tha commission sent a messace to
the Pacific car demurrage bureau at
San Francisco expressing a desire to
cooperate fb the fullest extent with
the director general's regulation of
railroada and acquiescing in the de
murrage rules "promulgated by him.
Sage Tea Darkens

Dent Stay Grayl Here's an
.. Old-time Recipe that Any
n body can Apply.
f The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray balr to Its nat
ural' color dates back to grandmoth
er's time. She used to keep her
hair beautifully darkr-cloMg and at
tractive. Whenever her hair took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. - '
But brewing at home Is mussy snd
out-of-date. Nowadays, bq asking at
any drug store) for a bottle of
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound," yon get this f among old prep,
a rat ion, improved by the addition of
other Ingredients, which can be de
pended upon to restore natural color
and besuty to.tlfe hafr.v .
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturatly
snd evenly that nobody can tell ft has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft 1 brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one strand at a time. Dy morning
the gray hair disappears, and . after
another application or two; it be
comes beautifully dark and flossy.
Wyetn s Sage and sulphur Com
