More Than one Branch mav Be Opened in any Town, j Van Winkle Opinion I' ; ' ' Branch banks do not consti tute national or state banks an- therefore more than one branch bank can be located in any Ore- . son city as provided by the 1933 legislature. Attorney General I. H. I Van Winkle ruled Saturday. The Question, raised by A. A. , Schramm, state superintendent of banks over the situation in The Dalles will also affectother com munities now harlng branch banks established, it was indi cated. la The Dalles the United States ' National Bank of Portland estab lished a branch bank under per mit of the comptroller of cur rency but not with the approval of the state banking department. The First National Bank of Port land has since filed application with the state banking depart ment for permission to establish a branch bank there. The particular question raised was whether the presence of a branch bank already at The Dalles eliminated the location of another there under the law stat ing no branch bank can be lo cated In a city under 50,000 pop ulation "where a national or Ing business." The attorney gen -.' era! ruled that branch ban k s were not classed as a national or state bank, and therefore a permit could be granted the First National of Portland. In a previous opinion the at torney general held state permis sion must be secured by natior.al banks for establishment of bran ches In addition to permission of the national comptroller. This opinion was not concurred in by attorneys for some national banks and the Issue has not yet been settled and cannot be settled un less courts are resorted to. "HILL THAT HAS NO END" a .. ... : . 11 I) . . i ?, ' U W e " ; i t r BUB B ISe, TRUCK FEES Application for a temporary restraining ordeY to eliminate all fees for carriers engaged in In terstate commerce now paid by those operating Into Oregon from other states was filed with the Mari0n county circuit court Sat urday by the Consolidated Freight Lines. Inc. The hearing on the temporary writ will be held here Monday and several state officials were served with summons to appear at that time to show cause why such a permit should not be is sued. Hearing on a permanent restraining order would be held later following expected issuance of a temporary injunction. The plaintiff charges the law ! unconstitutional in that It is discriminatory between compan ies engaged in business "between two fixed termini and those out-of-state firms coming into Ore gon without regular schedule or destination. It seeks a restrain ing order to set aside all fees paid by these carriers. The law attacked is known a; the non-resident law regulating freight carriers as passed by the 1933 legislature. Non-resident operators with fixed termini arc required to pay 50 per cent of the regular fee paid by resident operators, while those non-resident firms not operating between fixed points are not assessed mileage fees. Charles Becker, superintendent of the motor testing laboratory at the Avon, California, refinery, where Associated Oil company perfected Its new Smoother and quieter Flying A gasoline demonstrates the use of the elaborate dynamometer which, coupled to aa ordinary modern automo bile motor, can be made to simulate any condition of load from a never ending hill to a smooth highway. By means of this deriee Associated Oil company engineers developed in the new Flying A a fuel whose perform ance Is claimed to come closer to that of Ethyl gasoline than any other non-premium gasoline on the market. The dynamometer not only pro? daces on the test motor every conceivable condition of motorings bat can be made to simulate even more grueling conditions than are ever met by any car on the road. UM IN GAS lUU I) TUXES IS COLLECTED Oregon, since 1919 when the gasoline tax went into effect has collected 150.634,947 from this source, of which 146,015,291 was turned over to the state highway commission for road work, a com plete analysis issued by the sec retary of state Saturday showed.

Try seed ing some quick- growing an nuals. If this Is done at once yonr garden can be lovely through Sap tember and Oc tober. Annual poppies are among those annuals which give quick results. You may now secure them In rose and salmon and red and bronxe, as well as the more fam iliar orange and lemon shades. However, I rather like the yellow flowers in autumn. Somehow they seem to fit in with the atmosphere better than do the mora delicate pinks. Seeds of the Shirley poppy or of the peony - flowered' poppies, if planted now will also respond for autumn garden beauty. Geraniums if set out in the va cant spots and given sufficient moisture will brighten any gar den until frost. Annual larkspur and marigold seeds will do their part in a hurry. The autumn crocuses It planted now, wui coma into nower m six weeks and glva considerable aut umn color. If some of your plants such as the dahlia, the sinnia, the mari gold, the guems or the coreopsis look shabby and hare not shown signs of growth for several days, give them lots of water for the next week, cut back a bit ef tha branches which hare a woody ap pearance, and watch in surprise at tha - luxuriant growth which will spring forth. Tou should conserve moisture during August by careful and proper mulching. Peat moss, straw, or even salt hay are very good. But do not use a mulch of manure, even well-decayed, at this time of the season. If you have fed your plants properly you are apt to get a too heavy nitrogen content in the soil and thus injure your plants permanently if they are of the permanent variety. Be sura to pick your faded flower blooms from the perennial phlox. If this is done and plenty of water given them during the. next couple of 'weeks they will continue to bloom until frost.

The rock came oft, the dyn amite came to the surface and exploded and was heard by offi cers many miles away. McEwen said he got no fish.
