physician and makes no mini
mum penalty - mandatory on the
judge. - A bill for a lethel gas
chamber for use in executions
was passed and now goes to the
governor. It would replace the
gallows at- the state penitentiary.
Chief arguments - arose' over,
S.B.s"331 and .332 to require
motor " yehicles ?-.to be .equipped
"with- a" sealed container for car
licensee; and the Carney bill for
sanitary commission to clean
up stream pollution. .On the for

Angeil countered with a claim
that it was an effort to foist a
device off on; motorists. Stadel

of State- Earl Snell saying he
thought the 1 people, could get
.'along without containers.. In the

"It looks to me as though
there was a nigger In the' wood
pile." Senator -Carney said. "The
chief lobbyist for this bill Is em
ployed by a large, utility corpor

too. far," Senator Graham de
clared. "It is a dangerous reso
lution: and should be defeated.
. Senator Staples said he intro

BilFPast House
'(Continued from Page 1)
yesterday morning, the house im
mediately reconsidered Its! action
and sent the bill back to the
judiciary committee for amend
ment. The bill would authorize
cities and counties to cooperate
with the federal government ' by
furnishing parks and playgrounds
for the work. ,
The bill was defeated when it
received only 27 votes with five
members, absent and 2 S against
it. Objection was made to phrase
ology of the bill which is to be
corrected by the committee
amendment.
Egg Grading Bill
Rejected by House
Senator Burke'a egg-grading
bill was killed by the house by
indefinite postponement when the
measure came out of the agricul
tural committee on a divided re
port; . . i
The bill would have provided
that egga placed In storage should
be marked as storage eggs, that
eggs should only be considered
fresh for 30 days, and that the
grading of "special" be discarded.
Opposition developed against
the bill on the basis that Oregon
was an egg exporting state and
as such could not use all of the
eggs produced. It was stated that
the passage of the bill requiring
the marking of storage eggs
would spoil the sale of the eggs
and ruin the sale of the produce.

are derived from a balance in a

otion led to the. vote favoring
reduction to (5 years. He
ted out that federal law re
ed the reduction to OS years
by 1140 and that instead of mak
ing the change now, with sum
mer approaching, it would be bet
ter to do so, next winter when
people were most in 'need.
"The question Is whether yon

Strayer Poteta to

Senator Strayer pointed out
that in . addition to the pension
question itself, the senate must
consider the situation in the house
of representatives, where the pen
sion bloc revolted and halted
passsge of appropriation: bills a
week ago until assured that the
pension question would be put on
the floor for vote.

regret is on finances and I share
that with those of you who have
fought and bled the last four years
to get the state out of debt."
"In times such as these, when
pension discussions come up, peo
ple are inclined to forget the 600.

What would happen If we moved
the date to 1939?"
"These old people are right up
against It," said Strayer.
"That bill wouldn't pass the
house," Senator Best remarked.
"Then we'll let it go as it is?"
asked Walker.
. "Yes." said 8trayer. "We have
about $3,000,000 lying Idle. We
won't have to issue warrants. I'm
