One of the first bills, which will
occupy their attention, will be one
from the house which provides for
the transfer of the county seat of
Jackson county from Jacksonville
to Medford. Representative. Briggs
of Ashland introduced the Cftl and
it was approved by the house.
Practically all of the Southern: 1
Oregon group favors this transfer
and a majority of .the voters fa
vored it at the last: general elec

tacked in the supreme court, with
the result that it was held to be
invalid. It was- this court decision
that' inspired - Representative

(AP) Talking motion pictures
in which the tones of the perform
ers - were: synchronized I perfectly
with the action of the silver screen
and which are produced by a new
and -. different process, were dem
onstrated - by officials- of the Gen-;
eral Electric company in a theater
here today. i
The demonstration was in two
forms.. In one, the sound record
ing apparatus was merged with
the motion picture camera and
both the audible and the visible
were imprinted simultaneously on
the film. In the other, the-incidental
music for one of the latest
"first run" films was recorded on
an undeveloped print of the feat
ure picture. I '
When . reproduced today, the
strains of the 100-piece orchestra
permeated every Inch of the audi
torium, with the deep low notes
of the tubas, bass viols and bas
soons easily identified. Hereto
fore, the chief difficulty in tone
reproduction and amplification has
been- to make audible the low. fre
quency tones. o
The new. process; called by it's
inventors the "photo-phone," is a
combination of the motion picture
projector and the pallophotophone,
a. device invented by Dr. Cj A.
Koxie of the General Electric com
pany's research staff. The pallo
photophone makes a photographic
print by means of a vibrating

Sam A. Kozer, secretary of state
is being rumored as the man who
will) probably;' be appointed by
Governor Patterson as state bud
get? : director, " whose . salary will
probably be fixed- at $60 00 a year:
The -joint ways and'means com
mittee last Thursday night approve
ed a bill i providing - the. governor
shall be state budget director, and'
the bill will probably be reported
out early next. wee k. It was orig
inated at the request of the execu
tive department and carries an
appropriation of 125,000.
It was argued by friends of Gov
ernor Patterson that the secretary
of state would not be adverse to
accenting the position of budget
director for the reason that he
probably would be retained in that
capacity for a period of four years.
Mr. Kozer's term as secretary of
state expires December 31, 1928,
and he is inhibited by law from
becoming a candidate for the of
fice at that time. -'
In event the position of state
budget director should be tendered
to Mr. Kozer it would be heees-;
sary for him to resign as secre
tary of state. This would allow
the , governor to appoint Mr. Ko-;
zer's successor who would serve,
for a term of "two years. - C. M:
Laughridge, deputy secretary 'of
state, .probably would be a-candidate
for the office to sncceed Mr.
Kozer.; v
A. rumor was -current. here dur

Adams of Eugene also was being
considered by Governor Patterson
for budget director. Mr. Adams
