Is on again, as perennial as the
war between the democratic and
republican parties and as certain
as taxes. There are friends, many
or- them, to both sides of the
controversy In either house. Off
hand opinion has it that the legis
lature this year will not do In 'SI
what the voters of Oregon refused
to do in the fall of '3D. j
, Behind the scenes but none
the less imminent, is a brewing
fight coming out of the ways and
means committee. The first storm
mutterings arose last week when
the j emergency appropriations
were grudgingly approved. Sen4
ators Burke and Upton were es
pecially loud in their cries of pain:
and immediately went to work to
see that the $500,000 deficit be4
tween outgo and budgeted ex
pense should not occur again. -
But deeper than this surface
fight; is the one which may
emerge from the ways and means
committee if certain senators like
Burke and Schulmerich ' prevail.
They make no bones' about the
fact they want the state to spend
less money and by 'doing it. to
wipe out existing deficits. When
this is done, : these i advocates
would keep the "lower spending
policy np and pass the cuts along
to the taxpayers.
Burke's plan roughly would be
to determine, first, how much rev
enue is available, second, the ex
act deficit and third, subtract this
from the income. The remaining
money and only thatj would be
available for running expenses the
next two years if Burke had his
way. This would mean a $3,
000,000 cut in the budget and it
would be felt alt down the line,
in all departments and Institu
tions, i i

ex-state sealer of weights and

Meier's office managers during
the recent campaign, Is one of
the outstanding aspirants for hls
office. Dalzlel spent the past
Tt-sek In Salem, and was -said to
have had at least one conference
--ith Governor Meier.
Sam Brown, a member of the
etate senate from Marlon county
and a close friend of Governor
Meier, has denied that he is a
candidate for the office of state
market agent.
Governor Meier also has the
snnnintment of three members of
the state industrial accident com
mission, and a few minor offi-
der a law enacted several
years lago . the selection of all
statii institution heads fs vested
in tjie state board of control
whicfa is composed of the gover
nor, secretary of state and state
treasurer. These institution su
perintendents were said to be
giving satisfactory service and it
is not likely that they will be dis
tributed. The only salary Increase bill
affecting state offices that has
been introduced during the pres
ent legislative session has to do
with the state insurance commis
sioner. Governor Meier has let It
be known that he does not favor
salary increases for state offi
cials at this time, and it is like
ly that be will veto the measure
in case it is approved by both
houses. This bill was introduced
In the house and was referred to
the committee on state offices. It
later will go to the ways and
means committee for considera
tlon. . j.
Reports were current here yes-
terday that 3overnor Meier wilt
rruak to accent from the state a
salary In excess of $1500 a year..
Thii la the salary of the gover
nor, si fixed in the state onsti-p
tution. The state laws proviae
that the governor ihall receive
an annual salary of $7500.

It doesn't, either as a highway

request from some other district

now is to include both the road

this year this expenditure for a

Anna Pavlova was a relentless
and heartless taskmaster in re
hearsal, Senla Solomonof f, at one
time her pupil, recalled today.!
The great danseuse, he said,
told him often: "I am not your
friend when yon dance. I am
simply your teacher." i
Dance artist and ballet direct
or, Solomonof f formerly studied
under the patronage of Pavlova.
He appeared with her In her
"Death of the Swan", "Pet
rouschka." 'The Russian Wed
ding" and many other works of
her repertory. I
Solomonoff mourned the pas
sing of liis teacher and patroness.
He recalled i meeting her as ' a
youth in Moscow. He danced for
her, and she generously, offered
him room and I board, the bene
fit of her teaching, and made
room for him in her company.
A series of tours followed and
Solomonoff remained under Pav
lova's tutelage from 1909 until
the outbreak of the World war,
"I last saw Pavlova last May."
Solomonoff said. "I was con
ducting a studio in Paris at the
time and she paid me the high
honor of inviting . me, her old
pupil and protege, to dance with
her. We went! through the mea
sures of Raevl s 'Bolero togeth
er. and I thought her more di
vine in her dancing than ever.
"She was very nervous always
Never did I see her, before or
during or immediately after a
performance, thats he was not so
And always, after a performance,
the strain and ithe accumulated
tension on heri artistry carried
over. Long after the curtain had
dropped and the audience had de
narted. she would sit in a chair
and try to relax her nerves."
Solomonoff conducts a studio

FROM TRIP EAST
"I saw Oregon mentioned In

times In the two months I was
gone," Dr. C. H. Robertson com
mented last night in telling of a
trip to Chicago, St. Louis and
Rochester, from which he Just
returned. At the latter place he
studied at the Mayo cllnle, and
also studied at the other cities.
He i paid particular attention to
hospitals In the east.
The doctor says u is no won
der eastern folk don't know any
thing about Oregon, what with
the little space the state gets in
the papers there. Vhe four in
lnstanees In which be found Ore
s-en mentioned weres the Bowies
case, given only ai few lines; the
Corrallis boy in whose ear oar
ley sprouted: thai Toledo story

of cars along Roosevelt highway
at places where construction was
not completed eight months or a

CABINET
PARIS. Jan. 24. (AP)
Pierre Laval, youthful lndepen
dent-socialist senator and One of
the leaders of the! left center
moderates, tonight took, up the
task of forming a cabinet to suc
ceed that headed I by Senator
Theodore Steeg, overthrown In
the chamber of deputies on
Thursday. .
He accepted the task at the
hands of President Doumergue
after Aristide Briand, veteran of
many miniateries. had declined
the nremlershlp for the fourth
time in a year and a half.
In two long conversations with
President Doumergue by tele
phone from Geneva where he
was attending the sessions of the
council of the League of Na
tions, M. Briand said he pre
ferred to retain the post of for
elgn minister and the premier
ship should go to a younger
man. i .
Senator Laval attempted to
form a government after the de
feat of the Tardleu t cabinet in
December last year, but was pre
vented by what seemed en ir
reconcilable battle between the
right and right center groups,
headed by Andre Tardleu, and
the radicals who look to Edou-
ard Herriot, former premier, for
leadership.
