The Kew Oregon Statesman. Salern.Oreiron. Wednesday Momma. February d, 19S9 7 BILL TO CURB LIFE WRITERS Fraternal Insurance Orders Given Guide Lines in , ! Robison Bill A bill to regulate life insurance companies and fraternal organiza tions issuing insurance made its formal appearance in the house Tuesday in the shape of H. B. 4 45. proposed by RepresentatlTe Robi son of Clatsop. The bill defin itely outlines just what insurance companies may or may not do in order to transact business In the tate. The bill states: "The license or renewal of li cense of any life insurance com pany or fraternal organization doing Insurance business shall not be granted to transact business in the state of Oregon without a vote of the people of the state of Ore gon favorable to their admission "where any of the following condi tions appear: . "First Where the company or fraternity has raised the rates after agreeing not to do so with in six years prior to the passage of this act or hereafter. Hazards Set Up "Second Where the insurance company has used or shall use hereafter any part of its funds to start another insurance company or. fraternal organization within six years prior to the passage of this act or shall hereafter do so. and has raised or. shall hereafter raise the rates on life insurance policies or certificates in force. "Third Where life Insurance policy or certificates have been lapsed within six years or shall hereafter lapse after an increase of 10 per cent, or more in any one year In the premium rates and the Insurance company or fraternity has not refunded to the policy or certificate holder on de mand the amount of the prem iums paid on said policy, or certi ficate." - Lodges Hetd "Target" "Fourth Where any life Insur ance policy or certificate has lapsed after an increase ' of rates of more than 10 per cent per year - tn any year and the person on whose life the policy or certificate was written has died and the death having occurred within the time not more than one-third the - ...... 1 amv. 1 : . i : uuidiiuu ui i lie yuiicy ui tn iiii- - cate from its beginning until the increase and the insurance com pany has not Jfaid." Complaints on any insurance company are to be filed with the governor, who shall call a hear ing on the case. Fraternal insurance is said to be the target of this piece of legis lation, which it is believed is directly inspired by specific cases which would have been covered by legislation as proposed in the measure. bUDSIIf STATE FAIR ASKED (Continued from Pago 1.) suggested that the management of the Pacific International exposi tion present a balance sheet to the committee, but this was declared to be ridiculous by Representative Rushlight. It was said that a num ber of bills requesting appropria tions for county fairs would be in troduced before the end of the session. Armory Construction Ami Repairs fought Bills involving $83,036 for the construction and repairs of state armories were considered by the committee but no definite action was taken. . Representative Winslow of Til- Personality, When Ziegfeld selects them, you can be sure they have person ality. This lovely New York girl, now appearing In "Rio Rita," has talent and beauty, too enhanc ed by wonderful skin and the soft est waves of dark brown hair. "When friends ask me what I do to make my hair so soft and gleamy." says Miss Hargrave, "I have to think twice to tell them, because I give so little time to it, The method 1 use Is very popular among New York girls. I Just put a little' Danderine on my brush each time I use it. I am letting my hair grow; but you'd never know It, Danderine keeps it In place so wonderfully. It gives my hair such a silky, sort and . lus trous appearance, friends are- al ways commenting on It. There Isn't a trace of dandruff left now that I'm using Danderine regular, ly. And it keeps my hair and scalp so clean and comfortable that I don't shampoo half as often as I used to." . . Danderine quickly removes that oily film from, your hair, brings otft Its natural color, gives it more lustra than brilllantlne. It makes the hair easy to dress; keeps it in place.

IV A Y HELEN .:-lHARQRAVEMi Facts and Gossip 'Another skirmish in the Great! Phone war took place on the floor; of the house Tuesday, when K. K. Kubli of "Multnomah attempted to get II. B. 378. providing for home ruie for Portland, out of the Ju diciary committee and before the Multnomah delegation. It vas contended tht this is Portland's business, that the Multnomah del egation has. received a resolution on this measure from the Portland city council, and that the word of the Multnomah members should be seriously considered in the vote. Mr. Kubli lost the fight, how ever, and the bill will stay in thi Judiciary committee. If the state of Oregon does not get some revenue from the United States from government owned timber and lands in Oregon, it will notbe the fault of this ses sion of the legislature. The house has a memorial asking that this matter be attended to, and Tues day a resolution which would have appointed a commission of three to study this problem and report back in 1931 was introduced. Bulb growing is now quite an industry in this country, some ag riculturalists declare, and in fact there is evidence to that effect right here in the Willamette val ley, and therefore Congress is ask ed to put a tariff on bulbs, in or der to protect this Industry. Cheaper labor In foreigu coun tries and thus a lower standard of living than Americans should enjoy, is given as a reason for keeping the foreign tulip and oth er bulbs out of compteition with the U. S. product. "Where were you born?" "Franklin, Indiana." - "Ah yes, in Johnson county of which Franklin is the county seat! Thus did A. V.

Repre- entative Settlemier of Woodbura arged passage of a bill appropriat- .ng $6166.50 for repairs of the itate armory at his home. A bill carrying an appropriation of $4,- 385 for repairing an armory at Roseburg received the verbal sup port of Representative Fisher. Representative Bailey spoke in behalf of a bill carrying an appro priation of $30,000 for an armory at Cottage Grove, while Represen. tative Collier stressed the need of an appropriation of $35,000 for an armory at Klamath Falls. It was made flaln that the approval of appropriations for the Cottage Grove and Klamath Falls armories would be contingent upon the ountie3 and cities in which they ere located authorizing matched appropriations. It was said that the committee would pass on the irmory bills within the next few days. Senator Norblad appeared be fore the committee and requested support of a bill authorizing the state to take over the lease on the Oregon National Gnard training -amp in Clatsop county. The an nual rental is $2253.50. Senator N'orblad explained that the citizens 3f Clatsophad expended $15,000 'n constructing a road to the camp and also had paid the first two ears rentals. He said the expense had become too burdensome, and 'hat the residents of Clatsop coun ty that the state should assume he pledge. It was pointed out that Gover nor Patterson recommended that 'he state take over the lease in his biennial message. The 'committee rejected a bill proposing to levy a flat fee of $10 -n restaurants, bakeries and can. ly shops Inspected by the state iairy and food commissioner. The "ommittee assumed the position hat this would be double taxation. The proposal was made that the Tame commission take over the predatory animal hunters, but ,no lefinite action was taken by the committee.

A petition 4s said to be circu lating in the house this week which has for its purpose the es tablishment of a real chair In which the house-senate messenger, (Catherine Addink, may sit when not engaged in her official du ties. At present she perches on the ledge of the speakers desk, and members on the floor declare that so perched she is out of sight of them. The resolution states that this messenger was employ ed not alone for her speed as mes senger, but because she was pleas ant and inspiring to -look upon, and they insist that the chair pro vided be high enough so that said messenger be in plain view at all times while seated thereon. Uniformity in the selection of county officers is sought in the Anderson, Carkin and Hamilton bill adopted by ' the house. The proposed amendment to the con stitution to be submitted to the people, is an enabling act to per? mitting the legislature to enact measures for uniform officers in all the counties. Carkin explained that under 'the enabling act it would be possible for the legisla sion form or managerial form of county government, and in eithei event such a system would be un iform throughout the state. "Speaker Hamilton Tuesday sounded a warning to member. who have introduced bills for in crease in county salaries that un less they get together and formu late a sound and equitable sched ule for increases there was not much likelihood that their meas ures even if passed would recelv favorable consideration from the governor. Teachers and pupils of the Hayesville district in Marion coun ty were extended the courtesy ol the senate Tuesday forenoon. The teachers are Gladys W. Wheatley and Lavlna J. Robins.

Northcott informed the court today that he would have no further need of her, and with a wave of his hand requested Super ior Judge George R. Freeman to "ask the sheriff to take her back where he got her." The state has laid its plans to present its argument before the jury tomorrow afternoon. These plans, however, depend entirely on the amount of time consumed by Northcott in completing his case. Legion Gets Use Of Senate Halls A resolution was introduced in the senate Tuesday directing the secretary of state to extend to the department of Oregon, American Legion, use of the senate chamber and house of representatives on August 8, 9, 10, for the business sessions of the 11th annual state American Legion convention.

"This is the same old story," said Senator Bennett. "When you try to do something for the tax payers there are a few fellows who oppose your efforts. The bills under discussion will protect the property owner from having some one place a mortgage on his hold ings." Senator Bell declared that the bills were a step in the right di rection, and that the restrictions im nosed by the committee to which they were referred were rfDt unreasonable. "If you want to do something constructive for this state you should stop levying unnecessary taxes," said Senator Schulmerich. Senator Eddy, in closing the de bate, branded as silly an editorial read by Senator Klepper,- enoun- cine the bills as impractical. "This editorial" said Eddy, "was based on prejudice and showed plainly that the author was not acquaint ed with the facts.

Patterson's Veto Is Overriden By Solons The senate overrode Governor Patterson's veto of a bill approved at the 1927 legislative session in creasing the salaries of the assess or and treasurer of Lake county. The bill originally was introduced by Senator Upton and the house members of the Lake county del egation.

Repeal of this legisla tion was proposed in a house res olution, which reached the -senate today. Officials said the repeal of the interest guarantee law would save the taxpayers of Oregon many thousands of dollars annually. Important Forestry Bill Is Introduced Among the Important bills in troduced in the senate today was one by the forestry committee providing for the creation of for est fire hazard regions. This bil. provides that whenever in the opinion of the state forestry board any forest region or area is partic ularly exposed 'to fire hazard and danger, the board, with the con sent of the owners of 50 per cent or more of the lands in the said region, may define the boundaries! thereof and designate the aame as a region of extreme fire hazard. The forestry board also is giv en authority under the bill to de clare areas of active logging oper ations and other regions of equal ly high Inflammability as closed to .smoking during the closed fire season prescribed by law. A bill introduced by Senator Miller would give school districts of the first-class authority to levy annually for a period not to exceed five years, a special tax not in ex cess of 1 Vi mills for building pur poses only. Receipts derived from the tax would be invested in bonds or other securities, for the estab lishing of a sinking fund.
