hearty favor of Judge Siegmund

this $50,000 Is from millage taxes

by decrease in tuition fees over

Only Nominees Are
Five Men Elected
The election of the new direct

the Clancy forces and an equally
overwhelming defeat for the for

new leadership.
New directors chosen were Dr.

his brother, C. J. Keller, had ter

the Empire Holding corporation
several weeks ago and the former
is now engaged in selling stock
for a Washington corporation.
Outlook Is Still
Bright Says Clancy
"I believe there are yet mar
velous possibilities for stockhold
ers in an Oregon fire insurance
and casualty company," Clancy
said In summing up his views on
the reorganization of the com
pany. "I do not care to ask pres
ent stockholders to put up aa ad

panies organized and operating.
Some of my beet friends tell me
I will be unsuccessful but I be
lieve that within 0 to 90 days
I can secure sufficient . financial
support to have two companies
ready for organization and un

we shall not seek It. We have
