THE OREGON STATESMAN FRIDAY. ATOUST 13, 1D20. v.: i I ORDER COTilING IN 30 DAYS Service Commission to Act on Application for Reduced Car Weights JTbe public service commissions of Oregon, Washington and Idaho are expected, within 30 days, to have out their orders resulting from the joint hearing In Seattle on applica tion of the North Paeif le Millers' as Boclatioo, for a discontinuance or modification of the 60,000-pound minimum' car weight on flour and feed, according to Fred, A. Williams, member of the Oregon commission, who returned from Seattle today. Mr. Williams and Fred G. Bochtel, chairman of the commission, were the .Oregon representative's at the hearing. .Within', 20 days the ap . pi leant and . the railroads are to hare written briefs in the hands -of the commission. ' , A separate order will be issued by each commission. - While the plan is that these- shall be in thorough agreement, so the regulations in the three states may.be uniform, it Is said orders with varying provisions could be issued should the commis sions be unable to agree. "There were numerous flour and reed shippers from the several states at the hearing. Mr. Williams said. "The main contention on the part of the shippers seemed to be that it made it unduly burdensome to fi nance such large amounts, and then fome of 'the smaller dealers have Very limited storage facilities. "The railroads, on the other hand. contended that on aeeonnl of car shortage it would . be Inadvisable at this time to reduce the minimum." Banks May Make Use of Group UU Insurance i In reply to an inquiry by Will H. Dennett, state superintendent of banks, an opinion from the office of Attorney General Brown holds that banks have the right to cover their employes withgroup life in surance. " Whether it shall be done is a question to be decided between the directors and the stockholders of the bank.

No minority without a great prin cipal has ever governed a great na tion for long. . A. minority devoid oi any principle at all. hut dishonest and only relying upon murder and force, is bound to come to the ena of its tether, and the end for the red bunch of Russia is not far away. .

Adelhart a, mn riuvr1 itiv forger who waa arrested by Officer Lee Morelock Wednesday, may prove to have obtained a large amount of money oy issuing checks without hav ing funda at the bank. Investigation of the officers, it is said, haa uncov ered many or hla worthless checks in Salem, revealing the fact that the leading stores of the city have cashed checks for him . It waa said; at the police station iasi nigni mat the J. C. Penney store waa the last to be victimize t him snortly before hla arrest by Of ficer Morelock. The Penney atore casnea a cneck lor about 112. The largest check issued by Adelhart was for an amount allrhtlv lirr than 121 which waa cashed by Troy Woods w ho is a aeaier in automobiles. The other alleged victims of Adelhart are the Perner. Cohen Shoe company, formerly the Paris Shoe store, the wnue nouse Restaurant and the Kafoury Brothers atore. Chief Of Police J T. TTal.h ..1 last night that Adelhart waa able to victimize local merchants because he haa been a resident of Salem for sev eral years. When arrested, the police aay. the yonng man boasted of some work he had "pulled- In Portland which he thought the police would not be able to trace, but the yonng man became aa reticent as the proverbial clam when informed that officers were on his track. Police believe Portland merchants have been victimised by Adelhart through . the same scheme he operated la, Salami.- - - . , tailed to prevent this very scheme. There is no means by which a man can manipulate international reply coupons. Ponzl's claim that he haa made millions in this way la simply a stupendous fraud. "The entire Issue and redemption of International reply coupons throughout the postal nnlon for alx years would not aggregate $500,000, Ponzl could not have handled the millions of them necessary to make the fortune he claimed to have amassed without the knowledge of the officials. Coupon Not Redeemed Here. "Soon after our Investigation was started. Ponzl was advised by letter that coupons would not be redeemed In thla country except for legitimate postage purposes and the postmaster general leaned Instrnetlotns not to redeem them. Evidence that he did not deal in coupons In foreign coun tries Is the fact that he haa never SAY "DIAMOND DYES" Deal streak er ruin yewr saaterial la poor dye.
