Opposed ' " Contf&eed from pa 1) , -. net, - trombone, and : cymbals In - the Meier band, awoke to the fact ..that Meier's plan for a state con trol of taxation was "autocratic," and oddoimI to home rule. ' The Oregonian swallowed Meier's pro posal lo p&7 us costs nimseu out made a wry face , at the entire trie. ftr nsinr sereral sticks of , eyasire editorial type going Into the matter. Tne up-siaie press raye the session no support. . - Then Senator Burke of Tamhlll Miitr: vhn li a Meier war-horse, ' ran twtT and - deserted the Tax " Conserratlon and Equalisation league alt because the Indiana ni with ita f rict control of each district lery was contrary to home , rule, when Burke runs n means Meier's plan for tax reform must . be hard to swallow necause curm .vA .tm n.n mi -at livinr nreach- inr lower taxes and educating eheaper power. From those sources nltnl aTsllable to "" nmniftii cune word tbat the ctntA Henrr : Hansen was luke warm to the proposal of a special session. . Thus Is seems . quite certain there will be on extra business for Salem hotel keepers next month. The special session will not be called. The tax problem will con tinue one to be threshed about by 2700 special taxing districts in the state. Oregon Promotion : Political Fodder f The second eyent in the politi cal week was the mid-week "buy-Mt-here" conference. - To Salem frame 150 business leaders, retail ors, wholesalers and manufactur ers, to learn how to make more money for themselves and their state. The plan proposed was not a new one. It was much like the old revlTal song which ran. You bring the one next to you. and 1 11 bring the one next to me." Only in this case the word "buy- should be substituted. The logic of the buy-ln-Oregon thesis read at tM outset of the conference by the governor sounded strongly like the . tariff arguments of Messrs. Grundy, Hawley and Smoot. It may Indicate that Mr. Meier Is seeking the comforts of repub licanism. v '! . Seriously, the gorernor tf con ference was a move to use his oi ficial position to center public at tention on the need of developing Oregon's own Industries by using Oregon made goods. The forma tion of a Made-In-Oregon league was begun. Its executive commit tee meets here next Wednesday and there will be the resultant good effects which come from ad- rertising throughout without cost to taxpayers because ef the sweep . of newspaper publicity, the neces sity tt buying OTegon goods when ever quality and price make sucb purchases economic. t Police Department Heads Announced ' ' There were some notions ana nick-knacks in the political store last week which the publlc scan ned as It hurried on to the big counters. One was the announce ment by Charles Pray of hlsjo llce department heads. Ft-5m Portland will come Captain Mies to assist for three months or ganising the staff. Charles Alex ander, whose sleep has been dis- turbed by worry for "month, now. gets a clam eight hours for he is to stay on as head of the bureau of identification. The game com mission for the time will continue its enforcement program before pray Ukes It over.: - Pray baa come In for very fa vorable comment from those who know him well. He appears com petent, honest and fair. He had a chance to play politics In oust ing traffle officers who supported Hoss in the license tag squabble against , the governor, but an? nouneed that he would retain any men who did his duty, irrespective of his political leanings. The state has an open mind on the police constabulary and Pray has a clear Jleld tocreate a fine department. - William Einxlg is very much In the saddle as state purchasing agent. A few weeks ago when Gov 's ernor Meier was out to unhorse - tarle Abrams. ererythlhg from pins to tractors purchased by the state had to be requisitioned and bought with full knowledge and approval r of the governor.. Now Mr Meier - basks content- m als apparent belief that Eintlg can .do no wrong. As a result neither the governor nor the board of control is paying much attention to state purchases. EInsig Tecelves vt '-MaVM rifriaton on .bidders and ' places the orders. without J " consultation with the higher-ups. For example, a few days' ago a , purchase of seven Nash cars for the prohibition- officers went through without being ' known even to newsmen. Just a few ; weeks ago the governor was fight ing fori less 'expensive cars and making a fuss over scrap feed for duck ponds!; ' ' 1 ' Meier's attitude toward Elnilg is characteristic of-the governor. Once a nian Is In Ms family hired by him, put In charge, the executive seems content to -give him considerable authority and to "let him do about as he pleases. Raving on Paper i : -Holman's Hobby Rufus-Holman's committee on standardlxation ot paper used In ? the statehouse gave out a report that $50,000 annually would be " saved in the uniform brands, to - be utilised hereafter in all sUte ; offices. The Portland News burst forth with a screamer headline on i the savings but conservative news papers gave the story two para graphs and a two-line head. When one considers that the total out- put of the state printing office Is ; between 1135.000. to 1165.000 ' work a year and that in this paper costs are loss than than labor. i costs. It Is hard to see how the ' state can save $50,000 on paper. especially when the purchases lof I paper for the state plant In 103 0 totaled only 3","ir00. But.lt : sounds good and there is no ques- inn that Mr. llalman. who has lealtjextcnslielx-liuaper.xMi and 1 KIDDIES MAKE MERRY Miss Catherine GenUe THRILLS ARE ENJOYED MONMOUTH.

Some think this indicates that by the time another t rear rolls around the governor may be ready to seek a more ! exciting role, say that of United States senator in opposi tion to the incumbent.
