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.

More Alleged Bad Checks
Are Found by Officers
J. G. 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
