Wert to local Scout Executive Zlnser. According to the census , just furnished by the international of fice of the Boy Scouts., there a total of 799,030 scouts and 144,. 281 scout officials in all of the countries registered with the in ternational office.

Hammer of, the Ladies' Coajs and Suits FORFALL.WEAR TBI SOUGHT Injunction Cases May Go to Portland, But Local Judges Will Sit For economic ic-csgqh, Portland rttr-rneys who are attacking the vaMdity of the petitions in the State Grange income tax initia tive measure will ask a. change of v&nue from the Marlon county to the Multnomah county circuit cou;t, but it is probable that the trisl will be conducted by Judges Bingham and Kelly of Manipn coanty. . w: 5Ie m argue the Salem Wednesday to salnjon propagation measure, WC LalrTThompson." ol McCemant -; Thompson. Port land, who drew u pthe complaint against tbe income- tax measure, is said to have conferred with Chief Justice Burnett of the state tupreme court and asked that Judges Bingham and Kelly ee transferred to Multnomah county to hear the income tax bill case. Interest Rate Case Also The same action doubtless will be taken relative to the attack on the interest rate reduction measure, which is being assailed by S. S. Johnson of Portland. Because of the nature of the allegations in the canes it will be necessary to call a tremen dous number of witnesses, and to have them all come to Marion county would make the litigation exceedingly expensive. All the attacks are being made in the name of the state on re lation of John H. Carson, district attorney for Marion county, and against the secretary of Mate to enjoin him from placing the measures on the ballot. Secre tary of State Kozer is now pre paring hfa answer in the Income tax case. To this, and It is pre sumed with relation to all other measures assailed on -grounds of invalid petitions, the secretary of ntate will merely place the bur den of proof ot allegation "Upon the persons bringing the suits. Demurrer Suggested In the salmon case, argued Wednesday, and the Income tax case fraud in the obtaining of names is alleged. In the latter. as in the salmon case, the secre tary of state probably will not tfeny the allegations, but merely deny knowledge of the charges. and leave it to those attacking the measure to prove heir case. This probably al$o will be the procedure In the interest rate case. In the latter, however, the at torney filing the suit has suggest ed that the attorney general. de mur to the complaint, but the at torney general's office does not agree. wun mm ma. m expedite action- ' , ' Judges Bingham and Kelly have not yet handed down a decree in the salmon case which was com pleted yesterday. .
