Enactments of Legislature
Which Failed to Appro
priate Remedied
The state emergency board at
a meeting yesterday created de
ficiencits aggregating $84,806.50,
and provided lor expenditure of
funds to cover.
The board deferred action to
appropriate an amount to cover
expenses of th proposed recall
election affecting a member of
the public service commission, the
petitions for recall having not yet
l'?n filed. Should the petition
be filed within the next few days
it would be possible to call the
election for June 7, making it
parallel with the special state
eection. This would necessitate
another call of the emergency
board forthwith.
Ilounties Are- Invlded.
The amounts allowed were
made necessary by errors in the
enrolling of bills passed by the
1921 legislature. A sum of $67.
305.50 was allowed for the state s
half of tke bounty on coyotes, and
$ in. 000 as allowed for the era
dication of perdatory animals.
The enrolled bill read that the
money was appropriated for the
two years from January 1, 1919.
to December 31, 1920. and should
have read from January 1, 1921,
to December 31. 1922.
The sum of $2'00 was allowed
under chapter 166. laws of 1921,
which provides that when any
Judicial district shall be composed
of more than one county the
judge of the district shall be en
titled to reimbursement for ex
penses caused by his traveling
about in the district in the per
formance of his duties. While
the law was enacted, no appropri
ation was made, due . to error.
Twelve districts are affected, in
cluding the Marion-Linn and the
Polk-Yamhill districts.
Labor Allowance Inferred.
Needs of the state labor depart
ment, $15,500 for the department
proper. $6750 for the board of
inspectors of child labor, and
$8500 for the industrial welfare
commission, also were deferred.
These also are caused by errors
In the enrolling of the bill which
reads to cover the two years be
ginning January 1, 1920, and end
ing December 31, 1921. when ft
should read for the two years
from January 1. 1921, to Decem
ber 31. 1922.

Adv.
Welfare Commission's
Record Public Property
AM records of the industrial
welfare commission are open for
public inspection during office
hours of the commission, says an
opinion of Attorney General Van
Winkle, in reply to a question bv
Mrs. Millie R Trumbull of rort
'and. secretary of the commission.
The question asked by Mrs.
Trumbu'l was whether all the
commission's records are open for
public inspection, particularly ab
stracts of payroll and records of
ags. which are required by the
commission under certain con
ditions and which have always
)een considered by it as confiden
tial matter not primarily the
property of the commission.
The question is answered in the
affirmative.

terday accepted in a general way
a new proposal for the develop
ment of the Jordan Valley pro
ject and will work out details to

Representatives of the Jordan
Valley Land & Water company ,

WASHINGTON, May 11 The
use of poisonous gases against
naval vessels under s mulated
battle conditions will be tested
for the first time during bombing
experiments to be conducted off
the Atlantic coast beginning June
21. While army and navy aerial
forces are co-operating in an ef
fort to demonstrate the effective
ness of aerial bombs aga nst mod
ern naval vessels, the chemical
warfare service of the army will
be launching a poison gas attack
from the'air against one or more
warships in an attempt to show
that the navy must immediately
build up defenses against asphyx
iation. The ship to r.r gassec :s to have
a crew. Non-explosive bombs
filled with "tear gas" will be
dropped and every man on the
vessel will be required to keep
vithin the protected areas and
wear a gas mask.
Airtight Ships Possible.
Officers of the chemical warfare
service believe that by us ng a gas
or sufficient strength to incapaci
tate but not to kill the service can
prove its contention that in the
next war battleships must be made
literally airtight.
The chemical warfare service
and the war department are co
operat ng in conducting experi
ments in the use of toxic gases at
sea and in building up adequate
defenses for American sailors. As
a result, important changes may
be made in the design of new ships
and of some under construction.
Air Shafts Dangerous.
The "tear gas" is intolerable to
the eyes but is not dangerous.
Army officers assert It is of a
concentration and persistency sim-
No medicine has a better repu
tation than Foley's Honey and Tar
for quickly relieving coughs, colds
and croup. It loosens the phlegm
and mucus, clears the passages,
eases hoarseness, stops tickling
throat. John G. Hekking, 19 j
Burgess Place. Passaic, N. J.,
writes: "I was suffering from an
acute case of bronchial trouble
which gave me considerable sn
ixety. Foley's Honey and Ttar de
serves all the credit for my being I
wen now. Sold everywhere. ,
